MeAgainMar 28, 2007Revolutionary game for a revolutionary system. The best utilization of controls on a FPS for the Wii.

LigarW.Mar 28, 2007Not perfect, but still a solid FPS, the best so far on the Wii. Finally, multiplayer FPS using the Wii's controls, time for close quarters gun battles to get a bit more interactive...and personal.

The biggest problems with Vanguard lie within its controls, graphics and overall length. The Wii remote is inaccurate at hitting the head shots, and at times you’ll think you have Parkinson’s as you watch your steady real hand make the gun's on screen sights twitch and vibrate.

If you can live with it, and I suspect many can, you will undoubtedly find Vanguard to be an entertaining and intense first-person shooter. For me, this is just the beginning of better games to come. I don't want to choose between tight controls or good graphics. I expect them both.

Though you can get used to the sub-par controls, there’s still no real reason to play Vanguard, from the uninspired level design to the tired subject matter. Sure, it works on a basic level in that you shoot Nazis and they fall down. Beyond that, there isn’t much here to enjoy.
