Again though, like the campaign, the problem with it comes down to performance. Hell, it even has online voice chat if you have a headset. Feature-wise it's rich, with the same refined systems of unlockables, great game modes, perks and leveling that I loved on the other platforms.
The words "Wii" and "online multiplayer" aren't used in the same sentence very often, but Modern Warfare 3 for Wii takes the same multiplayer suite from the 360 and puts it onto Nintendo's console.
You have the option of playing with with pointer controls or Classic Controller but it doesn't have the same sort of tightness and responsiveness that I've come to expect from the franchise when its running at a higher fps. Combine this with the problematic performance – it runs at 30 fps or lower when it was designed for 60 – and shooting made me feel clumsy and frustrated. I can raise the brightness on my TV, but it always looks a bit too dark, making many of the firefights even harder. Unlike the other versions, the Wii doesn't even have a brightness setting. Modern Warfare 3 on Wii could also use a bit more light. It also pulls you out of the scenes, so instead of focusing on how crazy the set pieces are, I found myself wincing at the constant visual issues. I don't expect the Wii to have the same power as other platforms, but even over component the lower resolution makes it hard to pick out targets at range. Sure, it has moments that impress, but more often, badass scenes are ruined by intrusive texture pop-in and muddy visuals. With the Wii version, though, the graphical fidelity, while pushing what the system can do, just doesn't deliver what's needed to make the scenes as striking and enveloping as I know they are from playing the other platforms. Story and other irritating issues don't matter all that much in the other versions of Modern Warfare 3 because the sheer spectacle and awesome firefights are enough to keep me riveted and in the heat of the moment. Certain stages will have portions where a near-endless flood of foes come at you until you get to a specific point in the level, while at other times enemies completely disregard their own well-being if it means they can run up and shoot you in the face. Also returning are the annoying endlessly spawning enemies and crazy A.I. If you really pay careful attention to the plot, you might be able to follow along, but the fact that I have to put effort into understanding or caring about it remains problematic. The story in three confuses and isn't all that interesting, serving only as a backdrop for the badass set pieces and battlegrounds you play in. Modern Warfare 3 wraps up the story laid out in the previous Modern Warfare games.
