Holy shiznit. Some one has actually dared to say that Metroid Prime 3’s revolutionary FPS controls will be beaten! Who you might ask? Well its IGN.com’s Nintendo fan boy, Matt Casamassina. According to his blog, he makes the following bold statement :

“On another note, I just want to put it out there: Medal of Honor Heroes 2 officially beats the pants off Metroid Prime 3 in the FPS control department. This is the new Wii benchmark, period. Not even close. Seriously. Wait until you get a load of how beautiful the controls are — I’ll have a video for you in the near future.”

Not even close? Can the controls be perfected anymore? Can this set a new standard for Wii FPS controls? Can pigs fly south for the winter? This I definitely got to see and it’s gotten me very interested in learning a little bit more on this upcoming Medal of Honor Heros 2 game. I heard about this game earlier this year and the big news of it featuring 32 players online, but what else does it have in store for us? Apparently a lot. From the interview by none other than Matt Casamassina himself with EA, this is what we can expect from the game :

• Graphics will still be PS2 level (since its also being developed on the PSP), but will atleast run in 480p.
• Gesture movements are heavily used.
• Will feature a “casual-gaming” on rail shooter mode in the sense of Umbrella Chronicles.
• Wii Zapper will be supported for this mode.
• The goal to deliver the “absolute best FPS controls” on the Wii.
• Wii-mote speakers will be used
• Up to 32 players online via EA Nation.
• No split-screen multi-player mode.
• Contain an extra level for both of the single player modes on the Wii.

Interesting. I’m gonna keep my eyes on this one.
