EA announce the World War II First Person Shooter franchise Medal of Honor coming to the PlayStation Portable and Nintendo Wii.  The Wii version utilising the new Wii Zapper perihperal 

Though the spelling of ‘Honour’ is some what dubious, it will be great to see this popular franchise branch out to the Wii and PSP platforms.

From the press release;
Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced Medal of Honor Heroes™ 2, a new game from the critically-acclaimed Medal of Honor™ franchise designed completely from the ground up for the Wii™ from Nintendo and the PSP® (PlayStation® Portable) system.

It’s June 6th, 1944, and the war is in your hands. Step into the boots of OSS Operative John Berg and infiltrate Normandy from behind enemy lines to undermine the Nazi regime. On both the Wii and PSP system, choose to tackle all-new missions in traditional single player campaign or engage in massive, 32-player online, continuous-joining multiplayer battles where you can jump into the battle at any time!

The Wii version also features full support of the Wii Zapper (name not final), allowing for a more
immersive WWII experience than ever.  In addition to a fully-fledged single player campaign, Medal of Honor Heroes 2 also features an all-new mode designed specifically for the Wii that simplifies gameplay for players of all skill levels for easy pick-up-and-play action. This mode plays like an old-school rail shooter — the Wii moves you around, while you do your part—taking enemies out and achieving objectives. For the PSP, Medal of Honor Heroes 2 will deliver the most comprehensive shooter experience to date on the PSP, with robust single player campaign and on-the-go 32-player multiplayer capability that allows you to battle it out, anytime and anywhere.

Both titles are due for release before the end of the year
