Far Cry Wii is now Far Cry Vengence (as noted above).
They are happy with the graphics as the series is known as a graphic dependent one. The developer feels that second gen games will push the Wii further, but FC:V is pushing it quite a bit.
The controller is working perfectly. Testers report they are surprised by the things that can be done. One example is zooming, just push the controller forward.
The game has a tweaked storyline from another game, though maps are new. (I don't remember the game, possibly Instincts). But the crew wants to attract old and new fans of the series so it needs to be new content.
Solid 30 fps, 480p and widescreen support.
Split screen multi, looking into sending new content via WiiConnect24, online multiplayer in the future?
I think this will be the first Far Cry game I will buy.
