my god, anyone can at least take a pic of the backside of the boxart?
I can't believe that this game is out in a few days and we are still on pre-alpha screenshots from half a year ago.
wtf?
I can't remember any game with that less media

No, because the rumors were baseless and likely the creation of an internet nerd trying to stir things up. No one has gotten "official" information about this game outside of the closed door press conference 3 months ago. Some publications have resorted to doing previews based on information off of Gamefaqs.
It should be clear how Activision plans to handle this game by now, and going by all the information we have IW to thank for that.

Yeah, damn those nameless publications doing previews based off of GameFAQs!
But we know what's going on, thanks to a random user's post on GameSpot.

The press would release screens if they had any.
It just shows how stupid Activision is being with the game that they haven't released a SINGLE "real" screenshot for it, even though it's already in stores.

I'm buying it regardless of Infinitely Stupid Ward and activition trying their damnedest to stop me.
I'll then by MW2 and get ducked off that I can't point and shoot. Then I'll go back to uncharted 2 and be at peace

so i discoverd this game being sold together with modern warfare on amazon. Also comes out in Nov. It will be interesting a) which one is better and b) which one sells better 
This is no arcade shooter! Lead your four-man squad through the deadly streets of Beirut, using the tactics and tools of the US Marine Corps.
Both your squad and your enemies feature deadly AI unlike anything you¿ve ever seen before. Step up and command your squad in the only FPS for Wii that lets you issue orders to your fellow Marines!
Gameplay controls have been rebuilt from the ground up to take advantage of the Wii¿s unique motion-based control scheme. Take on your friends in an all-new split-screen multiplayer mode!

Isn't Marines just a port of an XBox game that wasn't very good?

The only hope I gave that game when it was brought up before was if the controls are like The Conduit, and the Nintendo Power blurb on it said the controls had issues.

And from the look of it, its a great downport job. The fact that you had to keep the game essentially the same probably pushed Treyarch to squeeze every ounce of power out of the Wii unlike any other Wii games before it.fyzxwhyz said:
Its a shame that more developers didn't do this because I do think ports of other popular games (RE5, Prince of Persia, SF4, Mortal Kombat vs. DC, Orange Box, Madden/FIFA/Wii (real ports of the next gen versions, not ports of the PS2 versions)) are more than possible on the Wii. The only other third party down port that did an admirable job (albeit this was on the PS2/Xbox/GC, not on Wii) that I can think of was NFS Most Wanted.

I suspect most of those could indeed be ported, but you would definitely lose quite a bit.
Remember, they ported Half-Life 2 to the original XBOX and the results were not good. It looked close enough, but the framerate was terrible. I don't think the Wii could easily handle the original Half-Life 2 let alone the episodes using the more advanced Source engine. Still, I'd like to see them try.
This wasn't so hot...
What makes you think those sports games would really improve all that much over what was possible on XBOX? I mean, the types of graphical flourishes added to the latest sports titles are exactly the kind of thing the Wii does not excel at.

I never said it would improve anything or rather that the Wii can do more than the Xbox can do from a technical standpoint (if the primary development teams continued working on the Xbox versions of their games along side the next gen versions, it would also likely be much much better than the PS2 ports they released, gameplay/features/control schemes in various sports games have evolved since then). I just think EA missed the boat on both PC gaming, and the Wii and even the end of the PS2 lifecycle. They were developing shovelware for those platforms (and sometimes no games at all) and they tricked a lot of uneducated buyers into thinking they were buying a new game, and perhaps even the same game as the next gen versions. You know what ended up happening? Their sales for those platforms dried up and not all of those sales ended up switching over to the next generation. Partly because some people felt fleeced, partly because some people just didn't want to switch when they thought they had a perfectly good gaming machine, and partly because those people may have not known the next generation versions were in fact a different and better game. EA's job should have been to sell their games, not to sell the next gen platforms. Their strategy backfired and now they are bleeding money.
edit: I should clarify my position on sports games. Lets take the NHL series. With NHL 07 they shoveled off PC/PS2 development to a studio in Montreal, a studio which wasn't familiar with the code and was undermanned and wasn't able to do much except a roster update (check my note below). NHL 07-09 for PC/PS2 was based off of NHL 06 which was one of the worst games of the series (very arcadey, players looked too fat, puck physics were very canned). Meanwhile 2K sports (who do get a bad rap because their graphics suck, but their gameplay is still pretty good) was able to continue development on PS2 and eventually on Wii, and they ended up having a game thats feature for feature equivalent between the Wii and 360/PS3. Had EA done that, they'd actually have some games on PC/PS2/Wii that people would want to buy. And if that happened, those sales would likely eventually transfer to the next generation.
Note: you know how people say sports games are just roster updates from one year to the next? Well EA Sports' PS2/PC games post-360 are true roster updates. They don't change ANYTHING except the roster and reskin the game. With the 360 games they are doing full development and adding new features, fine tuning existing systems, removing exploits, and just making a better and deeper experience. None of that was happening with the post-360 PS2/PC games.
There's a link at the Official Thread. I play this game very often, wanna exchange codes?Boerseun said:
