Cool. If you could cap some screen action for us, that'd be great too.

Although not a true FPS, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is a pretty good rail shooter for the Wii. It does a good job of filling in the plot holes of the previous games, although some areas are a bit different, notably the Nemesis encounters.

@Omega: I've seen it myself...my cousin has a Wii, and I must admit that the game looks awesome (even though we spend the days I go over to his house playing Mario Party 8...but I digress. ;))

Well, iv'e played the demo and you can play with a blade master and a marksman. Both were really good. Really addictive gameplay (just one more kill, just clear that room, whoops i have to go to school), too bad it was a short demo. But if it's actualy thatgame i'm getting, ill tell you guys more about it. Illstart a topic for it ;)

Thief 3: Deadly Shadows has good graphics and a great atmosphere! At the cost of the AI though; the enemies are dumber than ever. (I actually blame the bloody consoles for this. Just like Deus Ex: Invisible War, this game was clearly designed/developed with consoles in mind. :disagree: ) Still a fun game, nevertheless. I highly recommend it :)

Well, like the Rainbow Six series. The console sell is big. Where can you get more money, right, to the consoles. So they start working on a game that has it's roots at the pc.The gta series did the same...

(In addition to what darknessfood said) The interface and the controls are simpler. The game is less complicated. The AI isn't great because a good AI would make the game unplayable (or at least very hard) on consoles - it is somewhat hard to play a game like Thief (especially when you're using a gamepad) as you need to be very careful and react faster to emerging/potential threats. Not to mention a good AI would consume more system resources.

One of the best games ever, alongside Thief 2 (which is on my top 5 games of all time).

Recently though, I've had a blast with CoD4, I encourage anyone who even remotely likes FPS's to try it. Both the campaign and MP rock.
