With so little information about TimeSplitters 4 circulating around the Internet and Haze not going over well with a considerable number of people, it's hard to know what to expect from Free Radical.
Will TimeSplitters 4 be on par with TS2's level of excellence, or will it turn out more like TS3? There's really no telling at this point, but we do know that it may or may not contain nuns with chainsaws, which means the humor we've come to expect from the series will probably be present here.
In any case, Free Radical is currently running a poll asking which platform you want to play TimeSplitters 4 on. The PlayStation 3 is currently beating the Wii by a small amount, with the Xbox 360 and PC quite a ways behind.
I think it's safe to assume that TS4 appearing on PS3 is a given, considering Free Radical's experience gained from Haze. The real question here is whether or not it's worth porting to Wii, since the system is so unlike the other candidates.

just don't make it a Wii exclusive for the love of God
also I liked the third
I'm biased, because I only have a wii/pc right now, but I'd like to play it no matter what console it's on, because I love timesplitters :D
Also, the makers of Haze? Fail? Maybe?
I doubt this is going to be exclusive. It'll likely be a PS3 and Wii release.
If they can get the controls down on the Wii, I say go for it. Other than that, I say put it on the PS3, because the PS3 is much better with user content, i.e. map making.
I sure hope for a 360 port, i've loved all the Timesplitter games (even part 3, reluctantly)
FPS games feel premitive when playing them on the PC after a bit of Wii shooting.
Though I love my rail shooters and I love the fact I can shoot anything on screen without having to move it first and look.
It makes natural sense too.
When you shoot down a corner, do you stick your head there too?
Answer is an obvoius no.
Still, I agree with all the others, it would make a smash hit multi platform game.
Plus a Wii specific version would be just as great. (Cept how the Conduit will make it look like a poor attempt, but I'd still probably buy it)
With the polls as they are, I'd think it would be wise to release it on the Wii. There's obviously some cash waiting for them there.
Though you know, I'd really love to see a Time Splitters complitation to recap on all three of the titles that some of us may have missed.
I myself only played the second one. It was annoyingly difficult at some times but it was good.
Plus those mini games and chiptunes were a great extra.
A fourth on anything would be awesome really.
And fuck the Wii.

The xbox360 can have it aswell
I just don't want the whole game to be dumbed down because they have to put it on the wii
