    A terrible game by all accounts. I can simply not understand the positive user reviews. Utter garbage it is. Sure, it may provide some guilty pleasure, But sucks so, yeah.

    Art is ok, but gameplay is too simplistic. There are a variety of modes of difficulty, but you do the same thing over and over again. And the controls can be troublesome too. Just simply not a game worth holding onto.

    Ryan W., Prol M., and John S. must be this game's developers, because nobody in their right mind could give this game a 10/10. Online flash shooting galleries made in a middle school tech class are better. If you want a shooting-gallery type game, get Wii Play or Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicals.

    Ugh, I can't believe anybody gave this game a 10. Like others have said, the shooting game included in Wii Play is significantly better, and that's not saying much. I played this at my girlfriend's house, and quite frankly, if I had bought it, I would've demanded a refund and an apology from the store for ever stocking this crap. Not only is it just a 2-d shooting Ugh, I can't believe anybody gave this game a 10. Like others have said, the shooting game included in Wii Play is significantly better, and that's not saying much. I played this at my girlfriend's house, and quite frankly, if I had bought it, I would've demanded a refund and an apology from the store for ever stocking this crap. Not only is it just a 2-d shooting gallery which costs $30, it's not even a good 2-d shooting gallery. Weapon powerups are actually worse than the default, every level is just a cartoon picture which appears to have been made by a 10 year old, and each level is populated by the same 5 chicken drawings. Some games are so bad, you might want them just to laugh at how bad they are. This is not one of those games - it is beyond just bad. I gave it a 1 because it runs and doesn't seem to do any permanent damage to your console. Your mind, however, is another story. Avoid at all costs.… Expand

    I was hoping this game would be a Point Blank or Duck Hunt. Sadly, it fails to even provide a captivating gameplay for even one level. The controls are awkward, especially the panning of the screen, and the shooting is often unresponsive and nonsensical - the fully automatic gun is a joke. Duck Hunt on Wiiplay is much better than this sad game, and that's not really saying much as I I was hoping this game would be a Point Blank or Duck Hunt.

    A true mess of a game that contains virtually nothing, controls awfully and makes you wish to play something else entirely. Usually something playable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ein schlechtes Spiel. Die Grafikfehler, die Musik und die Waffen sind alle gleich. Aber die animationen sind wirklich gut.… Expand

    It’s an accessible and easy-to-master Wii game, providing simplistic gameplay and a neat art style. It’s certainly not "Call of Duty," but on the Wii that may be a good thing.

    It's got less meat than any McNugget and it doesn't even taste good – plus, it'll cost you about $30, which equates to about a dollar for every minute you'll spend with it.
