[QUOTE=Superjay]They need good mature games. Resident Evil 4 was a start for them last generation. Wii needs something of that caliber. Maybe in a year or so.

Why do they need Mature games? Since when did violence and sex make things better? Sure the Wii is getting some mature content, and it needs it, but mature doesn't equate to better. Games as good and as groundbreaking as Resident Evil 4 come out once a generation...if you're lucky.
Anywho, its obvious why Rockstar is bringing this game to the Wii...its a lighting rod for controversy. Being able to murder someone with the Wiimote is going to raise some red flags in certain groups. While the game is coming to the PS2 and PSP, the Wii version will get the most attention. I am willing to bet that the Wii version also sells more copies than the other two.
Can anyone think of a unique way the Wiimote will be put to use?
I'll bet you that the PS2 version sells the most copies, wanna wager JLH?

I must be a lucky man. I must have the luck of the irish.. I've gotten games as good or better than that for the 360 throughout last year. I love being lucky.

Wow Shawn! You're on a ringer today! I bet you -- I JUST bet you -- that if it were on the PS2 and the 360, it would sell more on the PS2.
Just a wager!
I mean -- one of them has a 10 million fanbase built in a little over a year, and one has a 100 million fanbase built in a little over half of a decade.
And the Wii, well... it's sold a lot more than the others in its first few months, but not enough to make up that kind of margin. You don't have to know how to take the slope of a curve to know that the rate of change hasn't saturated to that point just yet.
Do you really think you are impressing anyone with these wagers, or other boneheaded stunts?

Anyway, you are correct sir, it is not "technically" a port but it is a multiplatform game. Hopefully, the Wii can add something b/c of the controls. We'll see. I still think it is scary as hell when the only multiplatform games the Wii is involved with in 2007 are also on the PS2 and/or the PSP. Just goes to show you how seriously it lags behind the 360 and the PS3.
Oh...if anybody is interested the original Manhunt can be found dirt cheap at Ebgames or Gamestop. I plan picking it up this Friday or Saturday. Stay tuned.....
I am officially changing my name to H&R b/c Shawn is boring. I guess H&R is too but....

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH. AAAAAAAHHHHHHH. I'M SCARED TOO SHAWN! What if, because the Wii is only getting multiplatform games from the PS2 it dies and becomes a software company only? ...wait, isn't that what you want?
