confirmed, modern warfare not coming to the wii.

Physics and AI for two

The Wii just doesn't have the horsepower

So you're not aware of the Wii's power? You think it can run the same software "others" do?

Guys....settle down. You're getting all worked up over nothing. There is nothing to debate. The Wii can't handle what Infinity Ward wants their games to look, play and sound like. If Infinity Ward tells Activision that they can't do the game for Wii then that should be the end of it right there. If you really want Modern Warfare 2 badly, then you know what you have to do. There's no point in arguing over tech specs because everyone conceded years ago that the Wii is almost a generation behind. Still a great console, but it just does not suit graphic, sound and physics heavy FPS games.

It was only inferior in the eyes of Infinity Ward fanboys that game was every bit as good as Modern Warfare, especially since they were like all COD games, essentially the same, minus a change in scenery.

Sepewrath

I thought it was inferior because of the campaign - it was still enjoyable but I liked COD4's better.

I wasn't big on the multiplayer much so I don't know it was really better or not, I didn't play COD4's MP often enough.

[QUOTE="umcommon"][QUOTE="Jaysonguy"]

It has nothing to do with lazy devs

Infinity Ward wants to make a certain game, for that game to go on the Wii it has to be chopped up and watered down.

If the last to CoDs are sometting we can go by, the physics and specially the AI is not one of CoDs strong points. WaW alreayd proven that the wii can handle a decent port.

[QUOTE="AlexSays"][QUOTE="snover2009"]The only thing required is a slight (emphasis on the world slight) graphical downgrade to run on Wii.Jaysonguy

Totally

It's not the physics would take a hit

Remember, it's only how things look that's different on the Wii, nothing else

The physics only took a mild hit in the WaW wii version.

Darnit!!!!

I was kinda hoping it would come (which it still could), but oh well. I still haven't picked up COD:WaW or MoH:H2 lol. I'm waiting for the right price.

It is called multiple console owning, some should try it. It really helps calm down these debates. Every piece of technology has a price. It's called looking ahead into the future and saving up. none of us are "rich kid," yet we still managed to have more than one system, AMAZING. Is it the price that really bothers you or is it that you "refuse" to pay X amount for a system? All the systems are within an acceptable price for what they offer. Some could be cheaper but nonetheless it is fair.

If High Voltage Software can make a quality Wii title, I seriously doubt that Infinity Ward is incapable of figuring Wii out as well.

HVS in no way, shape or form should ever be compared to IW

What?

HVS has impressed me way more than IW.

I'm already prefering the Conduit to Modern Warfare 2.

I'm saying that IW much like Tecmo is only interested in making games for the more powerful consoles.codezer0

i have no respect for devs who don't appreciate the wiilordlors

but SP FPSs and in that catgeory IW fails. CoD 4 has only what 4 hours of SP. What a sucker for SP gamers.lordlors

If it comes to the Wii i'd be shocked beyond anything. If not oh well, and i think everyone should just feel the same way.

I have completed COD4 Modern Warfare, twice in fact.

They need to bring something very impressive to go through the sequal.

So, I know what the Conduit is up against, a solid modern times shooter.

The only FPS I don't expect the Conduit will surpass is the best one ever made, Half-Life 2.

i don't think the conduit needs to be put up against FPS' on other consoles. great FPS games can coexist, guys. halo can be the best FPS on the 360 while the conduit can be the best FPS on the wii, without any need of comparison between them.

lol you're expectations, are rather large my friend. There's alot of good FPS out there. Never played HL2 so I have no idea about that.

I think it will come though

dan_the_menace

agreed. They controll completely different. If anything. PS3/360 games should be compared, while Wii/PC games should be compared respectively. They're just different.

Oh, I know MOH has been for awhile...I would like to get them at the same time though (saves me a trip). I guess I was mostly referring to CoD. It was used and it was still around $45. I thought that was ridiculous.

If you've ever played Battlefield (or even Star Wars Battlefront) on the PC, it would be obvious.

Pretty lame. I never played the Wii ones, and I dislike the franchise.

However, a ton of people wanted it to come to the Wii.

I would also like to add i did play CoD 4 on my gaming PC which is stronger than the teh other consoles in terms of hardware. CoD4 SP was great but it was only 4 hours and not worthy for more than $30. I mean just look at Crysis. Now that's what you call great FPS SP.

Why am I not surprised? This game wasn't made for the Wii. I'll just stick to World at War and maybe move onto The Conduit if it scores well.

kinger256

The PC version is the one getting stripped down thanks to the console versions. 2007 Middle end hardware murdered CoD4 PC performance wise. 2 years later we are getting a game that can't improve much technically since its still developed for middle end 2005 hardware (the 360).

The online, however, took a huge hit. kinger256

Most of which should be blamed to the lack of resources given by activision (time and/or money). And not lack of power from the Wii part.

Then stop playing FPS's on consoles. There is a lack of FPS support on the Wii and most 360/PS3 FPS are played using dual analog. Buy a PC kinger256

The few wii ones are enjoyable. Plus I do own a very good PC. I played CoD4 and WaW Beta (bought the wii version) there.

What???? Have you ever played COD4 on the 360/PS3?kinger256

The point is many of us would like to play a decent FPS on a console with decent FPS controls. There is a lack of FPS support on the Wii, and many of us would like that to change.

[QUOTE="loco145"]]Too bad that IW isn't pushing the technology envelope....kinger256

The argument you guys make about IW excluding MW2 on the Wii because they want to produce the best game possible is ridiculous. If they really wanted to produce the best game possible, you'd only find it available on the PC.Instead, they make itfor two consoles with second rate graphics and second rate power. If IW were pushing the technology envelope, no console would be able to run it.

If you want a real example of a game that actually pushed the envelope, look at Crysis. That game is almost 2 years old and no console can play it. IW is full of crap.

The PC version is the one getting stripped down thanks to the console versions.loco145

That would only happen if the PC was the base platform for the game, which it wasn't http://www.lazygamer.co.za/xbox-360/call-of-duty-4-better-on-the-ps3

Most of which should be blamed to the lack of resources given by activision (time and/or moneY). And not lack of power from the Wii part.loco145

I'm not a genius in net code configurations but, I am aware that all Wii games lack in the Online compartment in all genres compared to the Xbox360/PS3 counterparts, and by what your saying, all developers, including nintendo, lack the money and time, which definatly isn't the case. WIth that said, I am pretty sure that their is something else holding back the Wii's online mulitplayer, whether it be with the console power or how the console's online was configuered to.

Then why are you trying to argue that Wii should have MW2, while you can a perfectly play the game on the PC?

The 360/Ps3 are 4 yealr old mid-end hardware. High end machine they are not. If IW really cared that much about power MW2 would be PC exclusive like Crysis or Stalker:CS. Or at least the main platform. But they care more about the 10+ million sales they got on the 360.

loco145

"technology envelope" does not always mean technically graphics. If IW wanted to make a Power-horse graphics game like Crysis, in all likelihood they would, however, they chose to puch the technology envelope by introducing an intense fast paced multilayer game and make a game based on a today rather then the overused WW2 theme. If I had a choice between COD4 or Crysis, I would easily choose Cod4

Oh, and here I thought you were talking about the lack of modes in the WaW wii version but instead is the generic "Wii online suka" stuff. Anyway, the Wii can do lobby systems, matchmaking, leader boards, expectator mode, tournaments, dedicated host or P2P hosting, voice chat, etc.

Then why are you trying to argue that Wii should have MW2, while you can a perfectly play the game on the PC?

kinger256

Because I enjoy playing FPS with the wii-mote from my couch. I found that playing WaW on the wii is a more relaxed experience than playing CoD4 on the PC. But I do enjoy both. If the game is a good improvement over CoD4 i will buy both versions.

That has nothing to do with the technological envelop. And specially, Is nothing that can't be achieved on the wii. Unless you wanna argue that for some reason the wii can only render WWII fpses. And your conclusion makes no sense, since Crysis has nothing to do with the WW2 theme and has far more gameplay innovations than CoD4 in single player.

Basically, i dislike devs who only see technology and graphics as the only way for improvement in video games. Look at Valve, they won't make a wii game but they appreciate the wii.

lordlors

the mere fact that you put Crysis and quality in the same sentence proves you're a troll. Crysis has nothing to redeem itself besides a computer-killing graphics system that only appeals to veggie fetishists bordering on the kind of thing you'd probably see used as porn material for those few sickos out there that want to have sex with food or something. And even then it doesn't do it as well as pc fanboys would have everyone believe. CoD4 at least had some damned meat to its game mechanic which is far more than I can say for t3h crysis.codezer0

LOL. You can't be serious.
