I suppose they had to save all of the processing power for the physics, and being that I'm a frame rate whore and it runs at 60fps 99% of the time, its a tradeoff I'd be willing to make in the end.

IMO it still would have been better as a Wiiware title, but make no mistake - this is a fantastic game whatever the price. If youre broke wait for the price to fall, but definitely pick it up at some point.

The physics in this game are amazing, yes. I imagine you're right in that most of the CPU cycles are going to the physics engine calculations since that's precisely what matters. I think we can all agree that the game isnt about being visually (fidelity-wise) impressive.

This is pretty much my view as well. The game screams "WiiWare!", but the game is very addicting. I've been enjoying it quite a bit.

Wife and I love this game, she sucks at the shooting aspect though

Nice, I was just going to ask about this one. My son and wife have been asking about it, I'll add it to the GameFly queue.
