syston_fox Posted 19 September 2008 Share Posted 19 September 2008 Takes some getting used to thats for sure. Ive had a couple of games on it and won them both but never felt that I was really in control of it in any real way and was just swinging my arms around like an idiot.... in fact I nearly lost an eye in a goal mouth scramble trying to shoot!

That sounds like an amusing part of it though. Flailing around like a mad man trying to tap the ball in. Fantastic. Ridiculous yes, but still fantastic.

lildave3 Posted 19 September 2008 Share Posted 19 September 2008 I don't understand how it works? The player moves in the direction you move your hand? This would baffle me for weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you control the player with the nunchuck controller and then you get other players to make runs by moving your hand and pointing with the Wii Remote. I think. I'd still want to have it on the PS2 or something, but it does sound like fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phube Posted 19 September 2008 Share Posted 19 September 2008 I don't understand how it works? The player moves in the direction you move your hand? This would baffle me for weeks. Gah... when will you people realise that the Wiimote is an IR pointer... not just waggle!!! You can move the cursor about like you can a mouse pointer on a PC screen... I effect it is like an RTS game... you not only control your designated player (like the out dated 360/PS3 ones...) you control runs off the ball as well... Too much for some smaller minds to understand... yet it's what RTS players do all the time (Please bear in mind I am not an RTS player!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Reverend Posted 19 September 2008 Share Posted 19 September 2008 I just wanna know why anyone would want to play a football game with a Wii controller. Tennis maybe, golf probably, baseball probably- but theres a common theme amongst these sports- you use an object to hit a ball. In football, you dont use an object to control the ball. Its just pointless. GIMMICK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a nightmare having lines appearing all over the screen.... and you'd punch everyone with each shot..... so yes! It could be fun!

Phube Posted 20 September 2008 Share Posted 20 September 2008 Rather tiny than narrow. I think you miss my point! I'm saying that people who can only think of one way to play a game (be it football, an FPS, sport, racing etc.) surely have tiny/narrow minds... Being a Nintendo fanboy (+ PC gaming) my gaming horizon is rather wide and can accept there actually may be a different (even better) way to play a game! OPen your mind... expand your horizons...

My idea of fun is not pointing a fcuking stick at a screen controlling a football game. As i've said, sports that involve hitting something, with something (i.e golf) i can go with, but doing it for a football game is a steamijg pile of horseshit. I think you miss my point!

Or perhaps people who want to change things for the sake of a silly gimmick have tiny minds? If you think that its better playing a football game using a wiimote, thats fine by me, you do that. But dont tell me i have a tiny mind because i think its a stupid gimmick, that serves no purpose other than to be different.

So from the first quote of five words i should be getting your point which is the third post a full paragraph. As for a wide gaming horizon, Everything i see is Wii related i would call that narrow not wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
