Back in 2005, Ubisoft released two impressive Xbox titles with Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30, and Brother's in Arms: Earned in Blood. Along with the Xbox release came the PS2 ports: Road to Hill 30 was nearly the same experience, while Earned in Blood was completely gimped and far from worth your time. Now, three years later, Ubisoft has dipped into its archive of shooters to bring something "new" to the Nintendo Wii, releasing the two-disc compilation Brothers in Arms: Double Time. The games remain nearly the same -- offering no multiplayer options for the Wii crowd this time around -- though what has changed, has unfortunately changed very much for the worse. FPS fans, Wii owners, and those with cash burning a hole in your pocket beware; this is possibly the worst shooter thus far on Wii. And yes, we've played Far Cry Vengeance.
Brothers in Arms is all about squad management, and on Wii it seems like it would be a natural fit. The series is known for its team tactics mechanic, so in both Road to Hill 30 and Earned in Blood you can pull up tactical menus and observe the battlefield on the fly, hold the A button and use the IR to send commands to your team for attacking, movement, and suppressive fire, and constantly need to have your friends in check. On Xbox, the system worked, and it was actually really, really enjoyable. On Wii, it's a trainwreck, and that's due mainly to the fact that Nintendo's system is using a port from PS2, rather than Xbox; a PS2 port that was far from excellent three years ago on its own console.
We're not going to go too deep into what each of the games are about, since there are full reviews of each already on IGN. Instead, we want to break down what exactly Wii owners are getting, even if that is an unfortunate cross-over of an otherwise awesome series. Just like on PS2's Earned in Blood, the AI is a mess in Double Time, and while the enemy AI in Road to Hill 30 isn't a bad as its counterpart (it's the better of the two games) , both Road to Hill 30 and Earned in Blood have serious team AI problems, and they make the game a pain in the butt to play. The cursor command is a great idea, but the execution plagues the title, as teammates will run the long way to your point of interest, sometimes stop halfway or ignore an order, and even turn around backwards and completely dismiss the actual front lines of the battle. Instead of feeling like you're commanding a living, breathing crew, it's like leading around the worst of the worst RTS AI, as you feel like you're simultaneously fighting the Germans while also babysitting every member of your crew.
Wii-makes walk a thin line already, but when a game can't iron out even the most blatant bugs (three second freezes occurring constantly in general play?), it's obvious that it's more about making a few quick stacks of cash than putting any real effort into a package. It's a shame too, as so many of the concepts in the game sound great on paper, in...
