Playing this on a projector takes a long time to get used to with the Wii. Eventually I'm able to play ok, but I'd much rather have just a reg control while playing. I thought it would be a really neat idea, but IMO was a let down.

Anyone else play COD 3 on the Wii?

I think its easier for PC gamers to adapt to Wii controls than console gamers. I dont own it but I tried it and its ok. For games like COD, I rather play it on a PC (COD2).

I rented COD3 lastnight.They need to come out with wireless keyboard and mouse,because the Wii controls just dont work as well for fps.Why not just make a wireless gun like the old duck hunt?

Played it, then took it back because the graphics were so muddy.

I did eventually get used to the Wiimote controls. Not too shabby...

Not as good as keyboard and mouse, but waaaaay better than joypad.

The graphics are much better with a component cable. Not 1080p, of course, but much better than with composite.

I know this is an old thread, but has anybody that's played this able to tell if it's compatible with a Zapper/Nyko-PerfectShot?

I'm considering getting this for my brother as a christmas gift, as it's priced right and he would be into the WWII setting. He just finished my copy of RE4 and loved it, and while I know this isn't as good as that, I'd like to consider this as an option. COD4 is another option, but if I can get this for $20 cheaper, I'm all over it. ;)

I believe COD3 is & the new COD, World at War, certainly is. I have the new one & found the Zapper works very well.

Tried it w/ Perfect Shot. Also works, but still found the Zapper to be better in this case. Something about the 2 handed thing w/ the Zapper just came together better for me than w/ the Shot. Regular Wiimote/nunchuck is also nice - and there are several control options for that setup. But for me, the Zapper was best.

Although similar to CoD3, WaW does look better & has a rather solid online component that will greatly increase replay value. I say spend the extra $20 & get WaW. You and your bro won't regret it.

Plus, it's kinda cool to have Jack Bauer barking orders while you & your fellow Marines take out Japanese troops!:D The Russians VS Nazis levels also get pretty brutal as the main campaign goes on.

Thanks for the info. From what I'm reading, COD3 requires the use of the A button for aiming (like RE4), so it's not Zapper compatible if that's the case. He's been playing RE4 so I know he's comfortable with playing a game without having to use the Zapper...so I think he might be fine with just COD3.
