Target : Terror was one of my most anticipated titles coming out for the Wii this year. Being one of my favorite light gun games of all time in the arcade, I hoping that much in the same way House of the Dead and Ghost Squad received classy and stable ports to the Wii, so would T:T.

Boy was I wrong.

Major graphical problems, horrible hit detection, HORRID IR pointing all equaled me taking the game back a week after I purchased it. I would have thrown it in a fire if I would not have received 15 dollars towards Mario Kart Wii.

Hopefully Raw Thrills will create a Wii Ware version of the game and do it the justice it deserves. Because if ported properly, this could be one of the best party games on the Wii.

Kinda dissapointing...doesn't play like a game should on a new game system. I know it's an old shoot-em-up game, which I personally like better than the newer games, but it plays horribly. Sometimes the game doesn't recognize a few shots here and there, and the thing slows down to a crawl every time the screen gets "busy". Almost impossible to play two players. Through about half of every level the game will just dump enemies onto the screen, sometimes 6 or more at a time. You pretty much just have to decide which few you want to kill before getting hit yourself a few times. I like a challenge, but it gets rediculous. After a few levels, it's not even fun anymore because there are plenty of times there is just no possible way to kill everyone on the screen without getting hit several times. I would really be mad if I had paid full price for this, glad I had traded some older games for it. Needless to say this one will get traded VERY soon!

Fun at first, since there are a lack of good shooters for the Wii. It's definitely worth playing, but definitely not worth the price.
