sluggish controls and horrible graphics

Look, I know it's the Wii, and the Wii isn't known for it's horsepower in terms of graphics, but honestly....this thing looked like a launch title for the original xbox.
The real problem with this game is the use of motion controls to try and play this thing. There is about 15 frame delay (in terms of video speed, not game speed) from when I move the Wii remote to when it actually moves on screen. This makes for an unplayable game. Plus, the controller doesn't always point where it is supposed to. Sometimes it would just point up to the sky. I checked the calibration and made sure the sensor bar was in full view of the Wii remote, but still it was like trying to move through molasses. I was so frustrated and disappointed that I couldn't even play through the first mission.
I have to say, with a few exceptions, I'm used to EA putting out sub-standard games, so I shouldn't be surprised.
