Good Wii shoot 'em?

I'm looking for a decent Wii game that a light gun (or similar) can be used for. Resident Evil 4? CoD? Anyone recommend anything decent?

In fact... anyone recommend a decent gun as well (for the Wii I mean).

Without a doubt, one of the best games I have for the Wii is House of the Dead: Overkill!

Ghost squad is quite fun -direct port of the arcade game

I've heard good things about Dead Space Extraction.

I think there's a new Resident Evil shooter coming soon (may even be out now)!

Second Alcmene's recommendation of House of the Dead, v good fun!

One other to consider as well is Metroid Prime Trilogy. A good shooter but there is so much more to it and will keep you going a lot longer than an 'on rails' game.

Resident Evil 4 for definite! The 'newer' ones are on rails, so you don't control your character's movement.

Resident Evil 4 is such a great game, once you complete it you unlock extra games such as The Mercenaries, Operation Ada and Separate Ways. Make sure you get the Wii Edition BTW.

I bought a copy on ebay for £9.50, to give as a Xmas present. GET RESIDENT EVIL 4!!!!!

Don't bother with a gun attachment though.

Resi 4 was awesome on the Wii. RE5 was awful in comparison.

Another one, though not really that great (but probably nice and cheap now) would be Red Steel. I liked it, but many didn't.

I also highly recommend this game. It's over 18 though due to the sheer quantity of violence, swearing and messed up madness.

It's like playing a Tarantino movie...with zombies.

I enjoyed Resi 5 on the XBox, but it just didn't have the depth of Resi 4.
