    I REALLY want to get a FPS for the wii U, one that really breaks in the Wii U's Hardware! I thought Black Ops 2 Looked really cool, Plus it has online play, but a lot of people on message boards are like "No NO! get Zombie U It really takes advantage of what the Wii U can do" So what do you think? I'm headed to the store later today!

    ZombiU isn't a First Person shooter - you will be HIGHLY disappointed if you buy it thinking that. It is in first person, and you do get guns, that much is true. But it's a survival horror title - firing your gun means more zombies will hear the noise and rush you, and you will NEVER have enough ammo to take on a small group, let alone a whole horde. It's about surviving, not shooting.

    That being said, ZombiU is a great game, and it does look great. There are times when the game looks absolutely gorgeous - something like you've never seen. Then there are times that the game looks like a Current PS3 title, which is a good thing I guess. Either way, it is good. I wouldn't get it if you were easily scared, though.

    As for Call of Duty - if you're looking for a FPS experience, then that's really it at the moment. Aliens looks amazing, but it's coming out later next year, so you'd be waiting. What games do you have at the moment?

    Just Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros U, That being said, I'll probably go with Call of Duty since you can even play it online and whatnot, I heard the serves are pretty deserted though :/

    I'd imagine they're more filled at the moment than they ever will be - Christmas did just pass, after all. That being said, ZombiU's online play isn't exactly online play. Whenever you are killed, your zombie goes online and attempts to kill other players. Likewise, other people's zombies will wander into your game and attempt to kill you. After killing them, you get to loot their bags, and whatever they were carrying when they died you get to keep.

    There's also 007 Legends, but you'll probably wish to pass on that one.

    ZombiU is good if you enjoy first person survival games. It also has a two player local mode which is pretty fun. It takes advantage of the WiiU's gamepad and being made just for the WiiU it has more interaction with the gamepad than the port games.

    Black ops 2 has online multiplayer and local, but the servers will not be as loaded as the ones on the PS3 and 360. However, it's not the game to get if you want a game which shows off the WiiU's capabilities. It's a port, so likely they just put a map and some icons and settings on the gamepad. It's not going to be as interactive with it as ZombiU is. But it's an actual FPS.

    Depends on what matters more to you i guess.

    I'm not a big fans of FPS games so I can't really so much.
