What is Splatoon? It's the next E-Sports baby! Splatoon is a 4v4 shooter for the WiiU where the objective is to get more paint on the map than your opponents by the end of the round. You can kill enemies by spraying them with paint, you get squid movements in your own paint, and you can launch yourself trampoline style
Currently, paint grenades are in the game, bazookas, rollers, and even a sniper rifle as well (mlg 360 noscope time) Best game 2015 hype!

I love that that's basically a deathmatch arena shooter but it's all about controlling space.
the thing I love is that personal aim doesn't decide games alone since you can be retarded but as long as you are shooting, you are still helping the team whereas this isn't the case for other fps games
my intial problem of this game is that it may took long to "paint" on large maps... a loose painter would wreck havoc it successfully penetrated the opponent's territory...

This game is all about space control. If you let a loose painter deep into your territory, you didn't control that space very well.
The first concern is legit. This game doesn't look like its going to have large maps anyway though.
edit: I love the look of this game. I am so sick of CoD/BF but love FPS games. This alone could get me to buy a WiiU. I'm going to follow this game very very closly
