What's Hot: Isn't just another rote WWII FPS.
What's Not: This has some control issues, and not the ones you're already in thera-Wii for.

Even with these minor setbacks and inconsistencies,
World at War is still a solid shooter. It may not trump
Modern Warfare or
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (and isn't as good as the PS3 and 360 versions), but it does have some exciting moments that will keep trigger-happy gamers enthralled. And while your dad won't appreciate its lack of historical reverence, it's not like there aren't other games he can play for that.
