If anyone wants a review of MOH Heroes 2, here it is.

MOH H2 is a game that has stunning gameplay. Having used both the wiimote and nunchuck as well as the zapper. EA took their time and was very cautious with this game as they wanted to thin out any problems they had with Vanguard. The single player campaign is broken into 8 chapters that take you through a single battle as you run through a Nazi town. Both the campaign and Arcade mode go through the exact same stages but both offer a different style of learning. EA took their time creating two very unique control schemes that use both in imaginative ways. With the rocket launcher, you must hold the wiimote over your shoulder pointing behind you as if you are lowering the launcher onto your shoulders. Their is also timed bombs, artillery and sniping which all use twisting motions of the wiimote and nunchuck. With the Campaign, their is three modes of difficulty. Their are main objectives one must do in order to complete the mission but their are several secondary objectives that you do for a higher rank. The arcade mode is just like a rail shooter as you move on a set path and must shoot your enemies and health packs in order to stay alive. This is a great way to learn what is coming in the campaign as you can go onto the arcade level one ahead of where you are in the game. The best part of the game is the multiplayer. With up to 32 player support, you get a great experience using EA Nation. Their are three types of online games, deathmatch (Every man for himself), team deathmatch (Teams against each other) and Infiltration (Capture the Flag). Anyone that wants to may start up a game with limitations on weapons, say if the game is ranked, make it private or many other features. The frame rate rarely is a problem with 32 players and some of the levels are pretty large giving you moments where you will not see anyone. After playing through the single player modes, I have played exclusively online and I am going up the ranks and I say anyone who buys this should get started now as you need about 10,000 more kills than deaths in order to make the top 100ish. This game is the best first person shooter ever made and I happy with what was given but their is only one gripe. Sadly, their is no local multiplayer. I have had so many friends come over and look at the box seeing 4 player support that they want to play it but we are not able to. This would of been a great way to complement the online but with the large size of maps, 4 players in one area may take 5 minutes to find each other. Overall this game should be played by everyone who likes first person shooters. This is the new baseline for all wii shooting games and it is going to be a hard one to beat.
