PostHeaderIcon Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex is a ported version of Modern Warfare 2 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

However just, because it’s for the Wii doesn’t make this multiplayer Wii game bad.  In fact you can play online or just the campaign just as well as Modern Warfare 2, just as long as you’re not one of those graphic freaks ;)

The pistol reloads faster then the machine gun, but the knife reloads faster then the pistol. –That Chief Commander Guy at the tutorial

It’s true, stabbing equals one hit kill. Provided you CAN stab someone, anyways. Well, guess what game’s back? Call of Duty! That one game that used  to be a second dog but is now a top dog! Okay, yeah, I think that’s enough gushing.Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex Green Light!

Pros
  • You can customize your controls, like if they’re too sensitive, you can make it less!
  • A whole lotta guns
  • Knifery is fun!
  • Play as all your favorite military guys! (Okay, actually, only SAS and Marines)
  • Military quotes when you die!
Cons
  • You die really easily (But that makes it more extreme!)
  • You can miss a lot on multiplayer (No so much in single player, because the AI has slow reaction speed)

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex Gameplay

Gameplay

You play this game like any other multiplayer shooting games.  You point in the screen and fire your bullets.

One major improvement in this game is the fact that you don’t throw grenades whenever you shake the nunchuck.  I have killed myself many times with the grenade as I scratched my nose. L

The game has a tutorial that teaches you everything, but I can say that everything is smooth and actually fun compared to a lot of other games.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex Multiplayer

Multiplayer

Unfortunately in this game there is no offline multiplayer like the other counterpart, but this game still has Nintendo WFC!Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex Online Death

You might think the games will run slowly, but you’re dead wrong.  You might see people lag around, you might even lag around, but when you play deeper into the game you won’t noticed the lag as much.

When you first go online you can choose from only 3 modes of games.  You also get pre-made classes with set weapons.

As you quickly play throught the game you’ll get exp and increases in ranks.  When you get to rank 4 you could create your own character.  You can give him whatever weapons, sub weapons, perks (special ability) that you want.

You have far too many game modes to play in, so I won’t say any. ‘Sides, the title is pretty self explanatory (I mean, come on, DEATHMATCH!? That’s plainly obvious), so read ‘em yourself.

The guns aren’t as self explainatory, but just read their description and just plow through people with bullets of fury!

Conclusion

Okay, in this game, you’ll be shooting, knifing, and bombing everyone that isn’t you, or a friendly. Okay, so basically, you’ll have a whoooole lot of shooting. Like most first person shooters. But this one is one of the ones that do it right.

Well, last paragraph. Here’s some advice: Strafing is an invaluable skill, but only if you’re not running. Then it’ll get you confused! Also, remember that your life is greater then ammo, so shoot if you think someone’s there (Even if it’s a body!). Okay, yeah, overall, a must-have for people who love to shoot and aren’t afraid to get there hands dirty.
The online is a heck load of fun that keeps you coming back, so if you’re interested, you should buy this game, but you can rent it first at Gamefly For Free!

PostHeaderIcon Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles gives you the ability to play through Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica + a whole slew of new things.

The game is a multiplayer rail shooter game (ex: like Time Crisis if anyone ever played it before).

This means you’re in first person view while the characters move by themselves and you get to shoot the zombies!  In this game you’ll literally shake around like the characters as then run with their lives.

While the stages are disturbing the game itself isn’t really scary.  You might get surprised, rushed, but you’re not going to wet your pants, but grab your brother and try playing the game at night with lights off anyways!

Pro:
  • 2-player rail shooter action FTW!
  • Upgrade your weapons with money you earn in the game!
  • Learn the secrets of Resident Evil as you play through the game + you can choose where to explore every now and then
  • Difficulty levels with automatic difficulty balancers!
  • Very good with eerie atmosphere and sound effects
Con:
  • You share ammo with teammates L
  • Disturbing and eerie, but if you’re looking for a fright this game won’t keep you up at night (opinionated of course).
  • You can’t control movement.

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles Gameplay

Gameplay

Like mentioned this is a rail shooter game, so you can’t control movement.  The only movement you can do is shooting at the zombies!Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles

As you wander through the game you’ll find weapons, ammos, weapons, people, weapons, zombies, weapons, and guess what else?  Weapons!

The ammo you find are shared with your teammate so despite your needs of being a weapon hog, it’s not going to happen.

You’ll hear characters scream as you battle through the undead, you’ll see corpse that’ll unsurprisingly stand up and attack you, and you’ll get into situation where you can watch your friend’s character get mauled to death (purposely don’t save them).

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles Multiplayer

This multiplayer Wii game does come with Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, but it isn’t the type we’re trying to get.  It’s an online ranking system.  Submit your scores online and hope you make it to the top of the list.

Multiplayer

The only multiplayer in this game is…the whole entire game!  Play through the whole entire game with a friend.

Make sure they get into the game before you start the stage, because the game won’t let them join once you started the stage.

Don’t shoot crazily when you’re playing.  You’re sharing everything with your friend, so be conservative, or else you’ll both be stuck with the infinite bullet handgun.

Conclusion

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles adds a new chapter to the Resident Evil series (you just have to get far enough in the game).

You might not get the scare you’re hoping for, but regardless you don’t see much good graphic rail shooter games with the wrath of the undead after you.  Kill one and before you know it 2 more come and take its place.

Blaze through the game with different difficulties, upgraded weapons, and even take different routes in the replays, this game has replay values, co-op, and upgradeable weapons, what more do you want?

if you’re interested, you should try renting this game first at Gamefly For Free!

PostHeaderIcon Battalion Wars 2

Okay, remember that one game? The one with the gun? And the Tank? And the planes and boats?

Well, this one is just like that. But better. FOR IT IS A SEQUAL! Okay, seriously, you get to bomb stuff, tank stuff, infantry stuff, AND boat stuff. Pretty good, eh?

This game is not without flaws, namely: Really bad and heavy accents.

You’ll be hearing an obnoxiously loud seagull wannabe, and some times, a really annoying Asian briefing lady. Arg, the bad accents, it burns (no offence intended)!

Pros
  • Good gameplay
  • Skill over strategy
  • If you’re outnumbered, you can fight your way out
  • Incorporates RTS games with action games well.
Cons
  • Really bad voicing (including accents and volume)
  • No skip briefing button

Battalion Wars 2 Gameplay

Gameplay

Also, you can control one unit of the available units, and control the rest of your army.

Ship ahoy!

Ship ahoy!

Now you’re going to kill people by shooting them repeatedly until they fall forever.

So this means no invincibility get ups, just a gun fight to the death. Western Style, preferably.

Battalion Wars 2 Multiplayer

Multiplayer

Okay, the only multiplayer you get is this: Nintendo WFC. Basically, you fight others and try to break their base. When everything falls (Like in an RTS), you win/lose if it was yours!

The other option is to work with a friend online in any of the missions, co-op!

Conclusion

Okay, basically, you’ll be shooting and bombing, maneuvering and blasting at anything that isn’t scenery. Okay, fine. You’ll also be listening to bad accents and doing barrel rolls to evade like…everything. Except giant bombs.

If you love third person shooters and planes, you’ll love this game. The cartoony graphics contrast with the violent storyline and the heavy murder. A must have for fans of shooters and airplane/boat simulator fans.


You should try renting this game first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!

PostHeaderIcon Call of Duty 5: World at War

You get a ton of weapons, and some vehicles. Prepare to be kamikaze bazooka’d. And sometimes Banzai’d. Some psychos will literally lunge at you, hoping to either catch you off guard or stab you.

On another hand, looting enemy guns, burning peasants, and calling air strikes to literally strike down people is just adding to the fun of this multiplayer Wii game.

Unfortunately in this game you play with a friend shooting on your screen unlike the other versions where they are their own character.

Pros
  • A lot of shooting
  • A lot of weapons
  • Nintendo WFC with players online
  • The ability to make your own class of soldiers when you reach level 4 in Nintendo WFC.
  • A lot of different explosives!
Cons
  • The controls are a little slow
  • Aiming can be hard
  • MG nests with MGs can be really annoying, especially when air strikes don’t kill them
  • Is stinks to be player 2 in Co-Op mode

Call of Duty 5: World at War Gameplay

Gameplay

You start out captured by the Japanese in WWII.  You watch as a fellow soldier gets tortured to death, but just before its your turn you get saved.  Now it’s time for revenge!

Fulfill mission objectives as you blow up, shoot, and stab enemy soldiers.  That’s really all you have to do in this game!

Call of Duty 5: World at War Multiplayer

Multiplayer

There are two multiplayer modes.

Co-Op

You play two players in the campaign, with your friend as an invisible gun. Player 1 is the guy that moves around, and the camera follows your angle so generally you get the best aim, while your friend pathetically tries to aim.

Nintendo WFC

You get to pick five pre-made classes, three of which you start with, and must level up to unlock them, as well as character creation.

Conclusion

Call Of Duty 5: World At War is a fun multiplayer Wii game, especially if you like shooting. You can do all the campaign over and over again, because it can be incredibly fun to shoot all of those Germans with that sweet Type 99.

The game is a very explosive one, with surprises every moment. Make sure you expect that guy with a shotgun on the top of that flight of stairs. Make sure you expect that bayonet charge.

All and all, this is a must have for FPS fans, even more so if you are a Call of Duty fan!


if you have another system besides this I would recomend you to buy that version but, you should try renting the wii version first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!

PostHeaderIcon Mario Power Tennis

Alright, that one game with tennis! Yeah, I got nothing. The important thing is that you can smash shots quickly and shoot super shots of ultimate smashing. That’s right, you can smash people! In the face! And win! Oh, and timing’s only kinda important. Yeah, I’m done here.
But not here! Okay, not only are there multiple stages, but there are also…MULTIPLE STAGES WITH GIMMICKS!!! Also, you can have other games as well. Okay, I think I’m done here. Bye.

Pros
  • A lot of Minigames
  • Super spiffy super shots
  • You have a pretty okay graphic (Not stopping and swinging)
  • A lot of characters
Cons
  • You probably won’t like it if you just don’t like tennis

Mario Power Tennis Gameplay

Controls

  • Okay, you swing to well…swing.
  • D-pad/Nunchuck to move, as always.
  • A-swing for a strong shots.
  • B + swing is for weak shots

Yeah, okay, that’s it. There are multiple swings, but I’ll just leave that to the tutorial.

Gameplay

Okay, for some reason, Mario and his crew of MAJOR AND WELL RECOGNIZED characters are playing tennis. Don’t ask me why. Oh, also, Bowser’s playing a friendly game as well. Yeah, I don’t know the plot too well, but at least it’s a swell game.

Mario Power Tennis Multiplayer

Okay,   basically, you can play minigames with up to four people, and exhibition with also up to four people. They play as their favorite characters, or their most effective (Like they’re good with Waluigi, but like Mario) Well, whatever. Play, win, and then repeat.

Conclusion

Okay, Super Mario Tennis is a great tennis game. You probably will like it if you like tennis, but if you don’t know, you should try it out. Tennis is a good game, but only if you try. Oh, and here’s a hint: Think. I won’t elaborate on that.

Also, utilization of the tutorial is extremely useful. Especially if you don’t know what’s going on. If you don’t know what shots do, look into it. Well, this game is a must-have for Tennis Lovers, and Wii owners.

PostHeaderIcon Medal of Honor: Heroes 2

ARRRRRRRRRGGHHHH!! My leg! Oh… *Ten seconds later* Okay, I’m back! Yes, the one game where you can get shot twenty times, then hide behind a box and recover nearly instantaneously is this one. So long as you don’t die, you can recover from ANYTHING.

Don’t get me wrong, this is a great multiplayer wii game, but getting shot several times and recovering nearly instantly is kinda odd for high physics games. Well, anyways, shooting things in this game is quite satisfying. It just feels a bit…finer, ya know? The gunplay just seems a little be more…robust.

Pros
  • The difficulty makes it all the more satisfying when you see the enemies die
  • You can loot enemies’ guns
  • You aren’t some uber super soldier who can get:
    1.Blown up
    2.Shot fifty times
    3.Thrown off a cliff
    AND YET STILL SURVIVE!
  • You are capable of punching VERY hard
  • Grenades aren’t hard to aim
Cons
  • Sniping can be difficult
  • This is one of those games where the enemy  automatically knows where you are

Medal of Honors: Heroes 2 Gameplay

Gameplay

Tonight, you’ll be fighting Germans. IN GERMAN! Hitler’s got some super spectacular awesome godly nuke weapon, ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO STOP HIM?! So yeah, you’ve got a Thompson, which, surprisingly, SUCKS compared to the Germans’ guns. With no actual path to follow, you’ll just follow the stars, or your comrades. You can also blow some stuff up. EXPLOSIONS!!

Also, you can play arcade mode for a different experience. You play it as a rail run game. The game controls where you move, you just shoot stuff. This includes health packs to somehow recover yourself.

Medal of Honors Heroes 2 Multiplayer

3 modes here. Death match, Team Death match, and Capture the flag. Only available for Nintendo WFC.

Death Match

So, you’ll be fighting to the death. Is there anything more to add besides that? No. Very no.
Team Death Match

Same as above, but you can press one to give commands to all of your maximum of 16 comrades.
Capture the flag

You’ll have to go stealthy to swipe the enemies flag, then RUN LIKE MILLIONS OF BULLETS ARE ON YOUR TAIL!  Because millions probably are. Also, you should probably have a comrade with that, just ‘cause fighting meat shields are effective.

Conclusion

You’ll be shooting Nazis, punching Germans (Don’t tell me that they’re the same thing, I know.), and blowing stuff up. This includes U-Boats! Yes, this is all in a day’s work. There’s a few tips, like don’t hesitate to reload, and don’t hesitate to replace your gun. Good thing the enemies are color coated for your convenience, eh?

All jokes aside, the game is a very violent, yet very fun first person shooter. You could as well find yourself dead as find yourself alive. The thrill of the hunt is very fun, as is the thrill of the battle. A must have for first person shooter fans and Wii owners.

PostHeaderIcon Metal Slug Anthology

Metal Slug Anthology is a scrolling shooter that contains 7 Metal Slug games throughout the decade.

This multiplayer Wii game includes Metal Slug 1-6 and X.  6 could only be founded at arcades, but not anymore, now it’s part of a console.

The reason this game is a multiplayer Wii game is, because there are 2-player Co-Op in every single one of these 7 games.

Not only that, but you and your friends can adjust the difficulty, the amount of lives you get, the amount of continues, and some other nifty features, such as saving in mid-game.

Pro:
  • 7 Metal Slug games all in one free, no coin required console
  • The game is action packed, and it’s a challenge to fight through the game even if you have unlimited continues on.
  • You can save anywhere and continue later
  • Play with multiple controls, Gamecube, Only Wiimote, Only Nunchuck, etc
Con:
  • Shaking the Wiimote to throw grenades isn’t the best idea ever.

Metal Slug Anthology Gameplay

Controls

This multiplayer Wii game is very simplistic.  I’ll be using the Wiimote.  You move with the D-pad.  Shoot with 1 and jump with 2.  Shake the Wiimote to throw a

Just by ducking and attacking, one can easily destroy a tank!

Just by ducking and attacking, one can easily destroy a tank!

grenade.  Be careful, because you only have a number of those.

Gameplay

Metal Slug is known to be extremely action-packed, fun, and frantic.  This is true about all 7 games in this package.  You run around in each stage with a pistol.  You can kill things by shooting them, this includes destructible buildings.

Sometimes you’ll run into tied up prisoners.  Shoot them to free them.  Then stand next to them and they’ll give you items or even weapons they could have used to free themselves!  A fair warning to you though: each weapon you pick up only has a certain amount of ammo.  Once you used them all you throw the gun away.

After jumping, ducking, and shooting your way to the end of the mission you’ll encounter a boss fight, which usually includes some gigantic machines.

Metal Slug Anthology Multiplayer

This multiplayer shooting game doesn’t have Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection or anything online related.  What it does have though is the ability to play 7 games with

Two people = Double the power, but it also means sharing time...

Two people = Double the power, but it also means sharing time...

multiplayer with one of your friends.  The action is frantic and it can be as easy or hard as you want it to be.

2-Player Co-Op

To do this you just need to have 2 controllers (a Gamecube controller would be fine too), and then just go into one of the 7 games.  Get in the game (character selection), and let them press Start to get in.  That’s all you have to do!

Conclusion

Metal Slug Anthology is a fun multiplayer shooting game.  In fact just one of the Metal Slug games would have been plenty of fun, but not only do you get 7 games you also get some added features.

With unlimited continues you can practically play through the whole game as you wish.  If you want to beef up the challenge then get rid of the unlimited life and make it limited.  Battling through this game with your life on the line is exhilarating.  That and getting a friend to take a hit for you is also very fun to watch. :P

if you’re interested, you should buy this game, but you can rent it first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!

PostHeaderIcon Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy

Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy is the one hit wonder as an editing game.

Besides the fact that you can play a multiplayer plane shooting arcade game you can just about edit anything you want in the game.

This multiplayer wii game not only allows you to play through the game it allows you to play with all of your friends.  In this game you can play through campaign mode with 2 players, and arcade mode with 4 players.

As much as I would love to say this multiplayer shooting game is easy, it’s far from that.  You’ll face 3 difficulty levels, and even at the easiest level the game is still hard.

Pro:
  • Fun flying arcade plane shooting game
  • The game editor is very deep and complex
  • With the game editor you can edit just about anything in this game
  • Fun shooting down planes and then sticking them on to you for a extra shield or weapon
  • Go online to choose other peoples creation that you want to download and then send it all to your wii
Con:
  • The game editor is hard to master, but once you do the skies the limit
  • The game is hard, even with friends

Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy Gameplay

Playing Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy is as simple as pressing 1 and 2 (which is easy).

The ships arn't that impressive, but the weapons...

The ships aren't that impressive, but the weapons...

You’ll play the game with just the wiimote sideways.  You use the D-pad to move around, and you press 1 to fire your weapon.  When you kill enemies you can touch them to connect them onto your ship.

When you have enemy planes on your ship you can use their attack other planes, and use them as a shield to prevent your otherwise fated death.  However if the parts get hit it’ll instantly fall off.

To protect your parts press 2 to absorb all of the parts into your ship making you more vulnerable.

Once you get a lot of parts things become very crazy!

Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy Multiplayer

In this multiplayer wii game you can play with up to 1-4 friends in Co-Op.  There’s a Nintendo WFC in this game, but instead of playing with other people you’ll be playing with the creative side of the game… the game editor.

Campaign Mode

This is where you and one of your friends fly through the sky sweeping everything out of the sky.  Once you both die you get…game over.  You have 3 different

One guy take the top, the other guys take the bottem, and yet they both got screwed over...

One guy takes the top, the other guys take the bottom, and yet they both got screwed over...

difficulties (same rule applies to all modes)

You each with lives, and depending on how much points you get you get an extra life.  Getting hit (or touched) even once will kill you.

Arcade Mode

Arcade Mode is where you and 3 other friends fly through the skies.  With 4 players imagine the chaos that will occur?  Okay, probably not much chaos.  One person will probably dominate for a while due to the sheer size, but everybody will have their chance.

In this mode you’ll have continues when you die.  You get 5 continues and it’s up to you and your friends to divide up the lives.

User Level

This is where all of your hard works in the editor mode pays off.  Here you can use everything you made from the ships you built and the levels you created.

Nintendo WFC

Here you can upload your creations online or even download other people’s creation to your own game, and then edit it some if you want.

Now you can either send or receive from your friends who have made things or get other people’s from online via the choice blast work depot.  To this you must first…

  1. Go to the site blastworkdepot.com (on a computer or the wii if you want) and go register an account using your wii’s console number (basically your friend code)
  2. Choose the things you want to download and then download them
  3. Go back to your wii and connect on to the blast work depot to download all the stuff you want.

Conclusion

With the ability to make everything in this wii shooting game, and then share it with your friends make this multiplayer shooter game a very fun addition to your collection of games.

Not to mention for the non-creative or lazy people (which is none of us, right?) you can go online and download other people’s contents that could be a fun addition to your game.

if you’re interested, you should buy this game, but you can rent it first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!

PostHeaderIcon The Conduit

The Conduit is a long awaited game for its best graphics the Wii could offer.  The controls are fast, smooth, and allow you to shoot with accurate precisions unlike some other shooting games.   However that’s not all this multiplayer Wii game offers.

This multiplayer Wii games lets you play as Agent Michael Ford as he battles through hoards and hoards of enemy aliens and mind-possessed ex-agents.  The story may sound old and redone, but hey blasting aliens and other players online is still fun.

Pro:
  • The controls are very fast and accurate
  • You can play on Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection smoothly even with 12 players in the same game!
  • Fun shooting enemies (whether aliens or other people)
  • Unique and strong alien weapons to use in the game and online
Con:
  • Invisible bombs hurts and are very annoying to remove
  • If you ever get itchy in the game, always, always scratch with the Wiimote, Nunchuck= Bad.  Shaking Nunchuck = Grenade.  Grenade + wall = death.  Death = me dying multiple times, because of this

The Conduit Gameplay

Controls

If you played a first person shooter game, like 007: Quantum of Solace, then you should know the controls are similar for those two Wii multiplayer games.

People online are tougher then any enemies you can encounter in Story Mode.

People online are tougher then any enemies you can encounter in Story Mode.

You point to the screen with the Wiimote (fast and accurate), and you shoot with B.  Press A to jump (allows you to dodge enemy fire).  C Allows you to crouch (perfect for cover fire and evading attacks).  Z is for targeting your opponents.  When you target though you don’t automatically lock on to them, it just makes it easier for you to hit them.

You do melee attacks by thrusting your Wiimote, and you throw your grenade by swinging the Nunchuck.  Pressing the 4 directions on the D-pad leads you to different options:

  • Up – Makes you turn around
  • Right – Makes you change to your other weapon
  • Down – Makes you zoom in or out.  You can use your weapons scope if it has one.
  • Left – Change grenade types

Gameplay

Like I mention earlier you play as Michael Ford.  You’re a skilled agent that gets used in the game and changes sides as the story moves on.  You play in the near future in Washington, D.C.  (because that’s where all of the important stuff happens at).

Things happened and then your objective became to wipe out these aliens known as Druge that are planning to take control of Planet Earth.

You come in this game with the A.S.E. (All Seeing Eye).  This helps you throughout the game (and acts like a flag in multiplayer mode), by solving puzzles and getting rid of these very annoying invisible bombs that will instantly kill you if you don’t disarm them.

As you moved on in the game you can pick up some nice human and alien weapons to fight your enemies with.  You’ll need them, because you’ll be facing mob after mob of aliens if you don’t take out the egg sac or portal that’s summoning them.

The Conduit Multiplayer

With great multiplayer brings great fun.  The Conduit doesn’t have any offline multiplayer shooting action, but it has Nintendo WFC.  You could play randomly with a lot of game modes online with Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.  This means you could organize a game with your friends, but it’s not necessary.  However if you ever decide to do that then you need to add friend codes.

Note: You can play with friends, regional, and worldwide with this multiplayer Wii game.

Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection

Okay first of all you can customize what you look like.  You don’t get to choose a whole lot, just a couple of models (agent, drone, guard, scientist, and a secret character).  You can choose them, and then customize their colors.

Now that you have created a character let’s move on to the shooting multiplayer game action with other people.  There are 3 modes to play in, and they each have several rules to make the game even more unique.

Free-For-All

Everyone kill each other.  The person with the most kills win.  It gets as simple as that.  In this multiplayer mode your character colors are what you set them

When you get the ASE you become everyone's target, run!!

too.  In team mode you don’t have custom coloring.  There are 5 rules you can vote for:

  • Quick-Match – The time is shortened and the first person who reach set amount of kills win
  • Marathon There’s no respawn time or kill limits, so just kill, kill, kill.  The person with the most kill in 20 minutes wins.
  • Three-Strikes – You have 3 lives.  If you are the last man standing you win the game.
  • ASE Football – You basically have to fight for the ASE.  Every second you hold it you get 1 point.  So you win if you’re the first to get 99 points, or have the most points when the time runs out.
  • Bounty Hunter – As the name suggests you play like a bounty hunter hunting a target.  Everybody gets a random target to kill.  If they kill them they get 2 points.  However if you kill someone else you lose a point, but if you kill your hunter you don’t lose any.

Team Reaper

This multiplayer shooting mode pits one team against the other for killing points.  If you want to win, then kill like there’s no tomorrow!  There are 3 rules to vote on:

  • Quick-Match – The time is shortened and the first team who reach set amount of kills win
  • Marathon There’s no respawn time or kill limits, so just kill, kill, kill.  The team with the most kills in 20 minutes wins.
  • Shared Stock – Each team gets 50 lives.  The first team to run out of lives loses.

Team Objective

This is capture basically capture the flag styled game.  Each team has a ASE to guard and for the other team to capture.  There are 4 rules to vote on in this Wii multiplayer game:

  • Quick-Match – The time is shortened and the first team who captures the ASE 5 time wins.  If not the team who has captured it the most wins.
  • Marathon The team that captures the ASE the most in 20 minutes wins.
  • Killing Override – This mode allows you to win either by capturing the ASE 5 times or just killing 75 people.
  • Single ASE – The ASE is placed in the middle of the map.  The teams have to race to it, and take it back to their HQ.

Conclusion

The Conduit offers a fun gaming experience as you can also you voice chat online (although I never use it).  The controls are slick, and being engage in a one-on-one gun match is exhilarating.

Besides that Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection also offers a gigantic magnitude of modes and rule to play on this multiplayer Wii game.

PostHeaderIcon 007: Quantum of Solace

Since I have never seen James Bond: Quantum of Solace (or is it 007?), but anyways…

In this multiplayer shooter game you might encounter some control problems, and maybe some unclear objectives, but this game really shines through in its multiplayer modes.

Among all of the problems in this game, what you should really want to do is multiplayer mode.  Here the game does some nifty things pairing you with a total of 4 players online in 4 different modes.

Pro:
  • Play 5 types of classes in multiplayer mode
  • Fun intense multiplayer modes
  • Play through single player mode with options of being stealthy or just the plain old kamikaze!
Con:
  • Messed up online point system
  • There are some glitches in the game
  • Didn’t receive some of the same options the Xbox 360 and the PS3 did (more multiplayer modes).
  • The game is too dark (but I’m pretty sure you can change it)
  • You can get lost on what you have to do

007: Quantum of Solace Gameplay

Steve trys to kill a person.  Steve fails.  The person was already dead.

Steve tries to kill a person. Steve fails. The person was already dead.

Now once you make yourself a profile (by picking your mii) you’re introduced to story mode, multiplayer mode, or online mode.  You can just play the beginning (tutorial) and just go online.

You play this shooter game by pointing at the enemies and then shoot at them.  You can run, which allows you to make a fun run and fire strategy.  Not only that, but you can throw grenades at your opponent, just make sure you don’t point at a wall, otherwise the grenade will bounce back and blow up on you!

Now if you don’t want to be the type that runs in to the middle of the battlefield there are other ways for you to play.  You can run into cover and blind shoot your opponent.  This means just hold your gun up and fire.  What actually happens is that you point at a spot and shoot.

The last thing is that by running up to a person and then shake the nunchuck you’ll engage them in hand-to-hand combat.

007: Quantum of Solace Multiplayer

Multiplayer is where all of the action of this game is.  The games ranking system can be pretty messed up sometimes, but you’ll still have a kick knowing that you’re snipping someone  to death multiplayer times, or that you secretly strangle someone to death.

This multiplayer wii game supports Nintendo WFC so you can go online and face off with friends that you exchange friend codes with.  You can only have a maximum amount of 4 players per game.

Local Multiplayer Mode

You can play locally with up to 4 of your friends.  You can play in 4 modes, but really it’s just 2 modes that is with teams or is just solo.  You get to choose 5 classes, and each class has their own set of weapons, but don’t worry you can always re-choose your class mid-game.

Classes you can play on the Orginization side.

There are 2 sides you can choose from, but don’t worry the classes may have different names, but they play the same compared to their counter parts.

Nintendo WFC

This is pretty much the same thing as local multiplayer mode.  The only difference is that you get to play with the big screen all by yourself.

The Four Modes

Now the four modes are:

  • Rush – This is where you go accomplish solo missions while the rest of the people are trying to kill you to accomplish their mission instead
  • Conflict – This mode is basically Death Match.  Try and kill as much people as you can in your 15 minute time span.
  • Team Rush – Do I need to say anything?
  • Conflict – You know it…

Conclusion

Having the ability to strategically move from cover to cover and not to mention go crazy and try to kill everyone you want makes James Bond: Quantum of Solace a very fast-paced wii shooter game.

The single player part of the game might be bad, because color problems, glitches, and unfortunately much more, can be easily made up by this awesome 4-player multiplayer mode.

if you’re interested, you should try renting this game first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!
