This game gets a lot of bashing saying how the Wii version is bad graphically. So I checked out the gameplay video and it looks good to me. The graphics look good enough for me, the control scheme seems nice, and the action intense.

This seems to be a classic shoot me up with some twists. I suspect this will be a sleeper hit, what do you guys think?

if it gets a AA at least, i'll say it is a sleeper hit. but i doubt it. i like games like these though. if only there was a part with infinite life and 4 people multiplayer. then i'd get it for sure.

It seems like a fun game. I also heard that the graphics are going to be the last things upped with the Wii version so I'm not sure if those are the final graphics of the game. But so far it could be a sleeper hit.

It does look intense and fast paced, and the use of the pointer is simple, yet engaging and requires skills.

Looks like it could be a decent game. It has 4 player coop with some action rpg elements in a sci-fi setting. Can't really tell much about the graphics, as far as I can tell, looks about a ps2 game(Like Norrath or Xmen), but in games like these everything is so small you can't really see much anyway. I don't think it'll be a sleeper hit.

It looks like it has psp graphics.  They said the difference between the wii and psp version is controls.  But it itll still probably be fun, it'll just probably won't look very good.

Sega did say they are 100% against ports to Wii and will make new textures for the Wii version of AS. Let's see if they do it.

first off I'm scared to get it since its a port from a psp game and second of all it better have some kind of climax since its look so simple and lastly i think you are right. it might be one of those games that get no attention.

the controls seem tacked on to me, like when you thrus the characters thrust, so if i thrust slow or fast the character will do the same normal move. I guess i won't know until it's released.

It sort of reminded me of a Space themed Diablo game. Screw the graphics, this game looks like it will be amazing. Is it online?

It looks like a very fun game, reminds me of the old looking glass Crusader titles. Also pretty similar to the truly fantastic Killzone for the PSP, I think this game is going to be a blast.

Still very cool. Does anybody know if this will be like an RPG where you level up an collect weapons, armour and items?

This game is looking really good right now.

I'll answer your question by using your own words:

 

Alien Syndrome will be like an RPG where you level up and collect weapons, armour and items.

Sega did say they are 100% against ports to Wii and will make new textures for the Wii version of AS. Let's see if they do it.

I hope they do as well. I had seen videos of this and I wasn't happy what I saw. It looked just like the 
PSP version. I'm not saying a game should look like the 360 or PS3. Still why did the game look like
a straight port from the PSP version. What the hell. There is no way in hell I'd spend $50 on that or
even close to that. I do hope the graphics do change, at least far more detailed. 

Maybe it's the quality of the video that is turning me off. I hope there is a clear clip put up soon to show
the end product. Graphics aren't everything but this is doing the Wii no favors at all I feel. 

Or it could just be the whole top down point of view that is really the big turn off.

The older games were great and the fast paced gameplay from this style of game is intense, I wasn't disappointed with the presentation of Sonic so I trust this game will also improve.  I have a few older games like this for the pc and I would imagine the Wii remote is just as good if not better than using a mouse.
