but as someone who has all 3 consoles I have access to other (probably better) FPS games
Man, where do you get the money? You spoil yourself. I lost all motivation to buy anything video game related after I bought the PS3, which was $600 at the time or something like that.
Anyway, regarding your Halo reference.. I think it's just because Halo was originally so success (and continues to be successful) that with each new game in that series, more people are just going "Ugh, fuck off Halo!"
This game looks like Geist for the Gamecube. Not in terms of gameplay, but graphics and design. That's cool, because I'm one of the few people who really enjoyed Geist (especially multiplayer) so I really do hope that this is good, at least for the sake of the Wii.
However.... I don't expect anything other than an at best mediocre FPS. Why?
