Onslaught (Wiiware).

Does it have random match-ups, or is online play limited to friend-codes?

I don't suppose it supports Wii-speak, does it? Hey, a guy can ask :P

It sounds good.

I saw a few gameplay videos. It looks like some nice arcade fun :) Unlimited ammo from the looks of it too. How does the matchmaking work?evrdayblues

Are there any unlockables to obtain?wiifan001

There are 2 modes, Free Battle and Ranking Battle. It seems that in free Battle you are free to chose between the stages and weapons you want to play, and only this mode allows for friends.

After that have to choose between World or Regional Match (or friends in free Battle).

Well worth the 1000 points.

Keep in mind this game is really about scoring points just as much as finishing the level. There are online leaderboards (region, world, and friends) for each level and each difficulty setting.

As far as wifi is concerned there is co-op (go through the story mode) and ranking (score the most points). Haven't tried the co-op but ranking is 2-4 players...

I'll probably pass on this game. I'd buy a PlayStation Store or Xbox Live game before I'd buy anything off WiiWare, and in the end I'll probably just never get around to it.Tikicobra

There is much better games on the VC to pay $10 for IMO.JLF1

Bah, can't get past the boss bug on level 8 (Sad Farewell)

anyone got any pointers for this struggling bug killer?

bought this last night at about 10:30. So far I've played through the first 3 levels on Medium Difficulty and just got tooled by the games first big boss.

It's fun, but I hope the intensity picks up a little bit in the next few levels.

I also find that moving around is really slow, which made that boss tougher than he should have been.

At this point I'll say that it's worth the $10, especially if you like FPS or want to try out the genre without investing $50 in a regular game.

Good, but not great, is my early impression.

Well... I assumed this was a thread to discuss the game, so I figure I have as much right to talk about not downloading the game as I do about downloading it.Tikicobra

If I go to PS3 boards and start saying "I'd buy a PC or Xbox360 game before I'd buy anything for the Ps3" on the killzone theard or whatever I would get banned ASAP for trolling.

You guys have just about convinced me to get this. I don't like FPS games, but I've been thinking about giving the genre another shot and this seems like the best choice to do that with. If I still hate the genre, I'm only out $10.

The last FPS game I played (not counting Metroid Prime 3, which doesn't count anyway) was Quake and the only reason I played that was because I'm a NiN fan.

but overall it isnt the best 1st person shooter yetkillerband55
