EA’s Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is being developed for both PSP and ‘from the ground up’ for Nintendo Wii, with the Wii version to make use of the recently-announced Wii Zapper gun.

The Wii version of Medal of Honor Heroes 2 will feature a ‘simplified gameplay’ option that plays like and old-school on-rails shooter in which your character automatically moves through levels enabling you to concentrate on shooting (‘the fun bit’).

This will no doubt anger the hardcore fanboy element which only likes games to be hard and thus unplayable for 90% of the population.

Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is set in 1944 where you play the role of O.S.S. operative John Berg. You infiltrate Normandy from behind enemy lines to undermine the Nazi regime. Players can choose to tackle all-new missions in traditional single-player campaigns or engage in massive, 32-player online, continuous-joining multiplayer battles where you can jump into the battle at any time.

This is great news for Wii gamers, many of whom have been bemoaning the lack of proper online gaming experiences to date. Watch out for the first screens and more on Medal of Honor Heroes 2 as we get it.
