Default Best Complement for the Wii Zapper

Going to grab the new Wii Zapper when it releases this week for $14.99 at Best Buy, but what will be the best game to complement it in your opinion?

I'm considering Medal of Honor Heroes 2, the new Resident Evil, or Ghost Squad. I'm only looking to grab one, and right now I'm leaning towards MOHH2.

I think I'll get MoH as the first Zapper game, and then I'l probably get UC after. IGN gave MoH an 8.4, saying that it had the best controls of any game they've ever played.

I'll probably get Ghost Squad. I liked the arcade game, and WiFi support will be pretty cool.

Err... I say read IGN's review. Because they states that the Zapper makes it really hard to play such games as Red Steel, COD etc...

Zapper is basically for Link and RE. That's pretty much it. Unless MOH has been made for it. I don't know. I got Vanguard and though the aim was terrible. So I'm not even touching it. Nor am I taking any interest in it.

The other problem the tommy gun layout causes is the fact that it's pretty much impossible to access any of the face buttons on the Wiimote when it's in the Zapper bracket, at least with the speed that's require for gameplay. This makes the Zapper useless with games like Red Steel and CoD, which is disappointing.

MoH is made for the Zapper, as well as Ghost Squad. IGN gave MoH an 8.4 and praised it.

Well, of course, Are you really trying to compare a new piece of hardware thats designed for New FPS wii games, to Launch titles?

They gave the PSP version an 8.4 too.

Again, totally not interested in GS, MOH, COD, RS.

So I had no idea what the difference was.

Only Zapper game I want is RE.

I will be getting MOH on release date, I was originally going to get Ghost Squad first and then get MOH some time later, but with the hype about the controls in MOH plus the online and the fact it is released a week before Ghost Squad I have opted to buy that instead.

I'll probably get Ghost Squad late December now. Dont think I'll get Resident Evil.

From what I understand of Heroes 2, the arcade mode is made for the Wii Zapper; don't think the rest of the game is going to be great when using the Wii Zapper. Other games like Umbrella Chronicles and Ghost Squad are made for the Zapper since they are On-rail shooters as well.

For me, MOH is ANOTHER WWII game which is over saturated years ago, but if you want a great online multiplayer shooter then I suggest getting it for only that reason.
