Looks alright i guess, though i don't see how it's benefiting from the wiimote. Seems like a regular pad would be able to do the job just fine.
Are you kidding? The wiimote is the main thing this ugly and painfully generic game has going for it, it's just a shame it has none of the style of Metroid Prime. As an FPS control scheme the wiimote is great and claiming that a standard pad is "just as good" only shows you have never used it yourself or deliberately tuned out all the reviewers and gamers who have talked about the fact it is superior when done right. Unfortunately the only Wii games so far that have really nailed the control are Metroid and The Conduit which is a shame because the one thing the wiimote actually really works well for in terms of "core" genres is FPS.

Okay, sorry then. ;) I always feel quite constrained playing shooters with a controller (well at least in killzone 2 i had to..), with the wiimote it's okay. ;)

@Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Weeks ago)
