"An Insult To The Wii"
Pros: There are none... none, whatsoever.
Cons: Everything about this game is a con.
Summary: I wanted to like this game, I was even looking forward to its release, but sadly it was a bitter disappointment. I have to say that out of all the video games I own (or have owned) on any platform, it is by far the worst. My chief complaint is with the graphics, which shouldn't be an issue but because they were that terrible I am making it one. Even by PS2 standards they're just awful, which is what the Wii version is ported from. The Wii may not be PS3 or 360, but it is capable of so much more and this game insults that. This is just another example of a developer not taking the Wii seriously and putting forward no effort at all into making a game that actually utilizes its capabilities. It's not just the graphics that are terrible but the story, dialogue, voice-acting, and controls add insult to injury. If you're thinking of skipping the Wii version and going with the 360 or PS3 version, don't bother, they also got terrible reviews. The only thing those versions have going for them are better graphics. I don't even want to dignify this game with a review, but please take my advice, if you value your money then DO NOT buy this game!!! It is just that bad.
If you made the mistake of buying this game, do what I did, go to Game Stop and trade it in for Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, a much more worthy survival horror game, which I own for PS2 as well. The graphics on it may still be last gen, but they far surpass the piece of crap garbage that is Alone in the Dark.
