Wow, that 'Justice mode' sounds about as unique as the rest of the run-down... still, hackneyed or not if its a good shooter then chances are I'll get it.
I mean, really - you don't play a light-gun game for the plot

Ugh, less press release speak please! 
All I can recall about this title is it having the worst digitised sprites in videogaming history. Seriously, if this turns out to be arcade perfect, it will look worse than Cruis'n.

Really? I take it that 2006 was a skint year for arcade releases then.
Oh well, there'll be other shooters.

It just screams as if Luke doesn't have any clue on what he's talking about.
It's so positive for such an abomination of a game.
All the Bad-Guys either wear Ski Masks or Sunglasses.
Screenshot. You get the general idea:

Well I haven't played the game, and as you can see, it's a 'News' article, not a 'Review'. The game was announced to be coming to the Wii, and 'News' is meant to be unbiased; the positive stuff you're referring to in the original article is what was written as part of the announcement of the game.
You'll have to wait for a review if you want somebody to talk about how terrible the game is. Oh, and sorry if the article screamed at you - I'll tell my future articles to keep the volume down. Cheers!

Can someone please explain just what kind of shit they were smoking that made digitized sprites ripped straight from the height of the 80s over-the-top ideas seem like a good idea? That is not cool, not even ironically.

As Luke said news articles are never negative, we're not going to slag off a product before release, at least not in the article

Nah, I understand that Luke  . Just saying that from a reader's perspective, maybe a slight rewrite is sometimes a more enjoyable read. IMO.
And not really having a personal dig at you there, Luke M - just a spot of constructive criticism. 
ANYWAY, enough of my yapping. Instead, let's focus on another screenshot of Target: Terror:

All I can say is thank God for Ghost Squad.

Hey there might be a chance that Corpse Killer could get ported from the Saturn!
