First things first, a four player co-op shooter on rails game? DO WANT! The few seconds in the video where it shows all four players shooting the screen up looks like pure chaos! Ghost Squad seems like it will be the best choice of the four games coming out this year that will utilize the Wii Zapper cradle.
Jim mentionedEurogamers hands-on experience which you should check out or you know, go to a local arcade and play it. The experience will probably be different when comparing it to the Wii Zapper and the giant hulking replica gun from the arcades, but it will give you a good idea of what the game will look like at least (the graphics won't be any different ... ZING!).
Also, what is up with the over acting of the people in the video? At least it's no where near as bad as the clown shoe-tasticResident Evil 4 Wii ad.
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

light gun games are wicked fun in arcades but at home they get old real fast. heres hoping some new design elements add flavor (strategy!?) to the genre.
I love all these cheesy Wii adverts, they remind me of the box covers for board games of the 80's - Connect 4, Guess Who, Battleship etc - although, the RE4: Wii edition advert, rates as a modern classic and beats all pretenders hands down.
it's any lightgun game ever made, complete with a retarded story featuring Ace and Gary. special offer includes panda suit, decent lip-syncing not included. void unless you're a lightgun whore....like me.
Why am I not surprised that they guy with the topless chick avatar liked this ad because it had a girl in a bikini? Is sex all you ever think about, dude?
