MadWorld

MadWorld for the Wii is a third-person action title played through the eyes of Jack, a stone-hard hulk with a chainsaw for an arm. A mysterious group of terrorists has transformed the city into a violent game show, where Jack and the rest of the populous must fight for survival against a multitude of enemies. The game's over-the-top violence will take advantage of the Wii's motion controls, giving an intuitive and comical feeling to the gameplay.
