Excellent Game.....However a little short

This game is great especially when used in conjunction with the wii zapper. However, the game is short although it has many areas that can be replayed. The party mode is great for friends. I enjoyed it a lot.

Great Arcade Shooter

Ghost Squad is an interesting concept for a wii game, take a pretty fun arcade game, add a wii internet leaderboard, and sell it! I definitely recommend a wii zapper or similar for this game (since all you really do is shoot)it will help with aiming. Remember this isn't a Call of Duty 4 style game, it's an arcade shooter!

Loads of fun for all ages!

This game gave me reason to purchase two Wii Zappers. The kids in the neighborhood love to play it even when they fail missions. We play in HD and Pro Logic II and the sound is great as well. Highly recommend this game for with the zapper.

Would be more fun if 2-player actually worked

I bought this game specifically for the two player co-op. Imagine my frustration when the game simply refuses to recognize another wiimote. Even though our extra wiimotes are fully charged, calibrated, and in fact often used in Wii Play and Wii Sports, when it comes to this game it's like they don't exist. Efforts to have other people enter the game just cause the wiimotes to flash and then give up, despite annoying directions to just hit the "+" to join the game. A web search indicates this is not unique to my system, but is a problem with the game itself.

Do you love shooting?

I just wanted to put a note in here that this is an extremely fun game if you love to shoot.
This game is also excellent for people who do not like the nauseating experience from other shooting games that shake the screen too much as you move.
Even though the stages are replayed, they get harder and you get to unlock other paths not found in the arcade game ( I believe)
I had a blast with this game!

Good party game

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!! The game is fun a first but gets boring really fast. The one player mode is bad and the game is only fun if you have friends over. This game was made for the wii zapper and is a good gun game if you have one. Also there are only 3 levels and each level takes about 5 minutes. Even if you do have friends over it gets boring really fast and it gets hard to tell witch sight is yours. Lastly it is a waste of $30 and consider carefully before buying.

Great value, great Game!!!

This isn't the best shooter ever, but it's not the worst. The game consists of 3 arcade levels, all of which are short. Each level has 15 or so difficulties which open up if you successfully kill the ending guy of that level on the previous difficulty. You have a lot of lives, so the game is not too difficult.
If you're looking for a light gun game (some call them rail shooters) for some dumb shooting fun, you'll be happy with your purchase. If you are looking for a long engrossing game you will be unhappy.
I find that this game gets the most use when I have a lot of people over because an idiot could play this game, especially after you open up the good guns.

Multiplayer problems

The multiplayer mode is a major feature of this game but the game will not recognize my second remote. All other Wii games recognize the other remote in multi player mode. Ghost Squad just flashes when I press the + button on the second remote. Without the multiple player feature, this game is not worth purchasing. I have not seen any resolutions to the problem of recognizing a second remote.

Great Game

My girlfriend and I love this game. I also own House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return, and its great to have two awesome shooting games for Wii. Just as I did in my review for HotD, I highly recommend picking up the Wii Perfect Shot Gun for use in this game.

I like unlocking weapons and costumes, it adds some replay value to the game. I also like the fact that you have an infinite ammount of continues (Although in HotD, I get more satisfaction when I win on my set ammount of lifes).

Skipping cutscenes is annoying if you are using the Perfect Shot (and probably the zapper). I only hold the Perfect Shot with one hand, and the action button (skip cutscene button) is the a button, so its usually annoying to push. It is also awkward to do the action scenes in the game, and change shot type, but its something that I can get used to.

There are a few mini games under the training section which are pretty fun to play. I haven't tried out party mode yet, but I've heard good reviews about it.
