Description
Rail shooter developed by Sega and published in Europe in January 2008. An elite Ghost Squad unit neutralizes terrorists and rescues hostages in military operations in the Middle East, Asia and South America. Wiimote pointing at enemies in linear missions, precision shooting at targets, tactical decisions affecting the outcome and unlockable character costumes. Wii port of the 2004 Sega arcade classic.
A Wii adaptation of Sega's arcade rail shooter, Ghost Squad casts you as an elite counter terrorist unit in on rails missions where you draw the Wiimote to aim, reload and defuse bombs. The snappy arcade pace, the branching scenarios and the co-op mode make it an excellent living room blast. The short lifespan and the repetition typical of the genre remain. A joyful rail shooter for fans of light gun shooting and arcade thrills in two player.
