Sega graces us again with a port of another one of their great arcade rail shooters for the Wii. Like with House of the Dead 2&3 Return, this is another fun, and classic light gun rail shooter brought to the Wii. Because it's a port of a game released in the early 2000s, needless to say, it looks like a Playstation 2 title, however, no one's here for looks, anyone picking this up knows it because they played it in the arcade. Like with House of the Dead 2&3 Return, all of the content is present here but Ghost Squad comes with a considerable amount of extras than House of the Dead. Aside from the standard game, there's a variety of different challenge modes, unlockables, and gameplay styles to try. Such modes include a non-lethal enemy arrest mode, a super hard mode, a ninja mode, and an uncomfortable misogynistic bikini girl enemy mode. Gameplay remains classic; the game directs you where to go, and you stop and shoot hostile enemies and rescue hostages until the screen is clear. Paths branch out, and even though they just lead to more enemies, it offers a smidgen more of replayability. 2-player mode returns as well, making for a fun filled day of nostalgia playing with a friend whom you may have played this game in the arcade with or played it himself. There isn't any online play though, which is unfortunate considering this is great with a partner, however there is an online leader board, for what that's worth. Lots of content and 2-player mode keeps the replayability high but this is mainly for fans of arcade rail shooters, which in this day and age is becoming limited, unfortunately. Looking 8 years too old doesn't seem good to some people either, but all and all, this is a fun little game to have with company if no one wants to play Rock Band or Smash Brothers. Also, when is Sega going to release their fantastic rail shooters of Rambo and Terminator? That's my questionVollständige Rezension lesen
Ghost Squad for the Nintendo, Wii is a pretty fun first person shooter. With there being so few good shooters Ghost Squad sticks to the basics of a FPS. Point, shoot. You can use the Nintendo Zapper also but it's much easier to just use the WiiMote. The game itself is only 3 missions but the level of each mission increases adding new tasks and pathways. For this reason there's a lot of replay value but only if you're someone who wants to unlock all the different weapons and costumes. It also has a nice 2 player which makes it a lot more fun. No online play though, just a scoring leader board. (Which isn't much) Graphically it's OK, nothing mind blowing. If you're familiar with the arcade version of the game it's very similar but a bit more 'clean'. If you can get a good deal on this game pick it up.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Ghost Squad is a very cool game. I was particularly impressed w/ the graphics and the overall flow of the game, especially when it comes to first person shooter games. I also dig the options of choosing which scenarios to take in the middle of the mission to further enhance the joy of playing. So far, the one dislike I have is that there are only 3 missions to the game. The player can advance to multiple levels w/in those 3 missions, but it seems that you can only play each of these so much before one gets bored w/ them. Playing this game on the Wii is very much like playing it in the arcade w/ the movements and shooting style, what w/ having to 'shoot' offscreen to reload, etc. If you have this game, I would recommend playing it w/ just the remote and the Wii Pistol Shot accessory. It gives you a better feel of the action.Vollständige Rezension lesen
The game transitions well from the arcade to the home console on the Wii. The game is fun and has different control schemes which is fantastic since I have the wii zapper, blaster and nkyo perfect shot (so I can use any gun from my arsenal - depending on my mood.) The game is a bit simple, but can be addictive in short bursts, nothing really spectacular about the graphics or sound but in the end it seems to be one of those games that's just perfect for the Wii and its unique controls. Despite the fact the game is simple and somewhat short - it tries to encourage re-play through secrets and different options available in previous rounds. Probably 7 out of 10.
I enjoy this game. First off, I have been waiting for a system that could translate first person shooters to home entertainment easily, without stupid joy sticks and what not. Coming from a PC background, a FPS is just not the same without a mouse and a keyboard. That being said, the arcade versions of games like Ghost Squad have always been incredibly enjoyable. Ghost Squad for the Wii is very fun. Multi-player is a blast, and I find the game to be much more enjoyable with a "Zapper" type attachment. This game is very true to the arcade version, and it rocks. Replayability alone is very little, and I'm sure a game with more depth, like Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, will be more fulfilling in the long run. But I will have this game in my collection for a long time. It is simple, it is fun, and it is cool.Vollständige Rezension lesen
