Thanks dude, this made me laugh

This is some crazy shit. How the fuck is it possible the game comes out in a few weeks and this is the first footage seen since it's announcement?? I mean do they WANT the game to bomb?

Actually the game comes out in a few DAYS. Which is obviously even worse.

Way to handle marketing, Activision. That said, the game actually looks good. May pick this up. Not a huge fan of COD, but I had some good fun with WAW Wii's online play.

If the talk about what was going on behind the scenes is true and it's looking more and more likely it's true (Treyarch wasn't even allowed to have their logo in the game!!!!) then I would say yes. They do want the game to bomb and are trying their best to do so. Seems like they are doing everything but putting up an ad telling people not to buy the game because it's crap.

Looks like they Treyarch did a decent job on it too (which had to make IW furious I think). Why even allow the game to be made if they were going to do their best to kill it themselves? This is just wrong. I was going to hold off getting the game but I think the best payback to Act and IW is if for Reflex to do well sales wise and for all reviews to talk about the work Treyarch did and give them the credit they deserve for porting this game over.

Some daring young videogame journalist should go after the true behind the scenes story of this game and the IW/Treyarch feud. This is a story worth writing about.

I think another reason IW is sabotaging the game is that if the game sells like WaW then Activision is going to want MW2 on the Wii, etc and that doesn't fly with them since they think they are too good to work on the Wii and their games are too good to be on the Wii.

There's no doubt in my mind that IW went apeshit when Activision told them they wanted to port MW to Wii.

Why would you want classic controller setting?
I mean really if it came down to that, I would just suggest the 360/ps3/PC version.

If you own PS3/360 and want dual analog controls, might as well pick up the original release on one of those consoles

Why own a Wii if not for the control options? When done right, Wii FPS controls trounce dual analog.
