I loved Destroy All Humans 2 on the PS2, and was really looking forward to the next in the series. The story and dialog are still witty and fun, but the control scheme is clunky and frustrating. I'm not sure if it's just that the game is a poor implementation of Wii technology, or whether the Wii just isn't a great platform for shooter-type games like this. I know Metroid Prime and Resident Evil on the Wii have their fans, os maybe it's just this game, but I am leaning more towards the latter conclusion.
The other major disappointment was the lack of a true two-player mode. Yes, you can play individual missions in a special 2-player mode, but it's not the same as playing out the entire story with a friend. I sure hope they don't follow the same scheme in the PS3 and 360 versions coming out later this year. They are different titles (not Big Willy), so I am hopeful.
Anyway, my advice is to pass on this unless you are willing to put up with the poor controls.
