Reload FREE DESCRIPTION
"Reload" was also released as a wii title, so if you have a wii, you may want to look into that version as well before you buy. I do not have a wii system, so I won't be able to make that comparison. What I do have is a Windows 7, core i7, 8 gigs ram, and GTX460 PC system, which I am playing this game on. And I must say that I am pleasantly surprised by this game. Please note however that this is NOT a typical first-person shooter game (although your viewpoint is first person). You do not have control over your character's movement. The game handles that, much like the "House of the Dead" rail-shooters do. However, this is much more limited than even a typical rail-shooter game. There is no story here, nor any long or branching paths. This is target practice, with some cool scenarios thrown in for variety. As long as you understand that, this is a very well-done target shooting game.
You'll start out on a simple target range, and try to hit the targets as best you can. I heartily recommend adjusting the mouse settings so you are most comfortable with the requirement of quickly moving the mouse pointer to exactly where you want it. I'm using a Logitech G700 gaming mouse, which has buttons on it to adjust movement speed on the fly, but any regular optical or laser mouse will be fine, but you may need to adjust the speed within the game's settings to optimize it for your personal taste.
The first target range is simple, but fun, as you try to get the best score you can. As the game progresses, you'll be put in more complex situations, such as the game moving you through a series of rooms or a village, and you must shoot the stand-up wooden terrorist targets without shooting any of the innocents. Headshots count for more, while shooting an innocent will dock you severely. There is also skeet-shooting, which is also really fun, trying to wait until two targets line up and hitting them both with one shot for extra points. Left mouse button in all cases is used to fire, right mouse button is used to reload (strategic reloading is part of the fun here), Space bar is used both to hold breath for steady shot (there's a breath meter on-screen, so even the space bar must be used sparingly and strategically for best results), and for sniper-zoom mode. Sometimes the scenario will call for you to "double-tap" each target, meaning hit each target twice.
