Before going into the details of this game i would encourage people give it a good college try.
One of the downfalls of this game is clearly in the story. The single player camp is really lacking in the department. What i really use it for is to get used to the controls and fine tune them for online play. So there is something good about the camp mode.
The second lacking element of the game is going to be the arcade mode. I just don't get it. They say that it is there for the casual gamer. No casual gamer is going to play this because the game is 40 dollars.
Where this game is at is the Multi-player mode.It's fun to shoot friends, and strangers, for longer periods of time. Again the controls can become difficult, but i strongly suggest going single player and refining the controls for yourself. I bought this the day it came out and i don't regret it one bit. It's a game for the Wii that you can just put into the system and have some fun.
If you still don't want to buy the game after reading this (I understand if you don't want to). Support should be on your list for getting this. It is the first FPS by a 3rd party on the Wii. Metriod is a fun game, but when it comes to controls you can refine them to a science. If you are a person that wants more developers to put good FPS's on the Wii go out and do you part and support this game. EA spent a lot of time on it and should get some credit for one of the better games on this system.

When I first saw this game was being released with 32 players online I was amazed. I thought wow even halo 3 can't do that. I ordered this and the day it came I popped it in and was playing online with in 5 min this game doesnt use friend codes instead it uses the EA Nations services using its own servers and not Nintendo's you can create your own server on the list name it what ever you want and add people as friends with out much hasle the only things I dislike about this game are that it lacks 4 player local mode and the chat system is only pre-set messages that you can send to people nothing else no voice chat or other form of communication. Other then those things its a pretty awesome game has good graphics and great controls and game play. Go buy MoHH2 and start playing online today!
Fun when the EA servers are functioning

This is an average WWII shooter with a fun control scheme, nothing more, nothing less. The offline component is ok. I would not recommend the game on the strength of it alone. The online component is a lot of fun, especially with the Zapper Wii Zapper with Link's Crossbow Training, however it brings two frustrating issues with it. The biggest is that I get disconnected from EA's servers all the time. It usually takes 5-10 minutes of trying and retrying before I can get into and stay in a game for a length of time without getting disconnected. Even when I do get into a pseudo stable connection, though, it may only last for 10 minutes, at which point the disconnect/reconnect fun begins again. If I switch maps/games, the fun also often starts all over again. I googled this problem and found out it is a common one (though not one that everybody has). Just be aware... Second, you often have to shoot someone 10-20 times before they die (unless you are one of the bozos running around with a bazooka). When you add 31 other players into the mix, that makes for a lot of people running around crazy holding their triggers down Rambo style. I prefer something a bit more tactical. I guess my summation is, if you like shooters and only own a Wii, I would recommend this game. If you own other systems in addition to the Wii, I would stick to their shooters. Of course the Zapper control is a tempting and fun one...
Fun but lacking in special effects

This is a fun game, can be challenging on the harder levels but is a bit lacking in the graphics department. The AI could use a little improvement as well but overall not bad.
I do like the way you can use the controls in this game. Just recently got my Nyko gun which I think will make it that much better. I really like to see game companies use the controller in innovative ways. If you're a hard core gamer, this game will probably be disappointing but if you are just casually into games, this one is a lot of fun.
As good as FPS gets on the Wii?

I give this rating more because of the difference between FPS on the Wii and my XBox. Comparing this game to the play of COD 4 on the 360 is like comparing an Edsel to a Mustang. This may be as good as FPS gets on the Wii; if so I am done on this platform with FPS. Give me more sports games.
NOT 4 PLAYER!

I was looking for a 4 player first person shooter for a wii. I found this which was advertised to be 4 played but its not true. There is a 1 player solo mode and then 32 player online mode but you can only have 1 person playing on each wii at a time.
Huge Disappointment

This game is a real letdown. Lots of potential, but its got boring and easy single player campaigns. In Multiplayer, the graphics are simplified (worse than a bad Gamecube game), the character animations are twitchy and unrealistic, the control frustrating, the sound effects and music are missing or unfinished, and there are some serious bugs (like invincibility if you pause while spawning). The game box says 4 player, but there is absolutely no offline multiplayer on the console, and no split screen of any kind (on or offline). It is the first online FPS on the Wii, which is reason to celebrate, but it's not at all what it promises. Hopefully the next attempt will be better.
I'll sell you mine if you really want it.

I'll keep it short in saying it was dissapointing. I bought it for online play the day it came out. I never go out and buy games on their release; that is how excited I was. First, the controls are nowhere near metroid's. The metroid controls are so smooth, much better than these even with all the settings you can change. The controls get a bit ridiculous. Put the wii mote over your shoulder to shoot a rocket. Make a throwing motion to toss a grenade. Guess what? When you don't aim at the screen for half a second your charecter looks at the sky or his feet. You walk around like a penguin, and apparnatly gravity is too much for you to overcome so forget about jumping. You have a choice between a whopping four multiplayer maps, all of which are tiny. The only good things about this game are the decent graphics and sound. As others have mentioned you only get a main weapon and a side. If you want to pick another up you drop yours. It takes more than a clip to the head to kill someone, or 3 snipes. It is often hard to see anything when you are walking down stairs because your giant gun is smack in the middle of the screen. They try making things realistic as possible then have you health regenerate? I could go on and on. PS If anyone thinks this is a fanboy review it is. I have and currently own all nintendo systems. So, it is not like I am biased against wii. If you want a good fun online fps don't get this. Do what I plan to and buy either a PS3 and get Resistance:Fall of Man or 360 and get Halo. Both of those are good. This one not so much.
Good graphics--love the wireless access for online gaming

Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is about what I expected in relationship to previous ones. Having the game on the wii is a nice because you can use the wireless connection to play online and use the wiimote for more interactive game play.

The graphics and game strategy were good, especially if you've never played a game like this one before. I liked the little bits of history they gave you at the beginning of each game. I probably would have liked it better had there been more missions and a little more variety. It's far more difficult using the "hero" level than it is the "green" level, but the game strategy between them doesn't differ. I'm waiting to see if you're able to unlock a secret level if you get 100% on every game, but I kind of doubt it has one. My favorite feature had to be not being restricted to one weapon. There were quite a few different types available. This is a great game for sleepovers if you plan on staying up all night to win all the missions.
