Did you ever get the hang of this Paul?
By the way, is the game any good on the Wii, does it utilise the Wiimote in anyway?

got the game myself, and although ive managed to pick the locks a few times, its been down to luck as well, simply wiggling the wii mote and eventually the lock is picked.

ur best looking on a site like gamefaqs which should have detailed description of how to do it.

me and a mate worked out the lock picking, and its actually quite simple...you just twist the remote right or left slowly. when your at the right position the remote will rumble and you hold it still and the door unlocks! its simple in theory, but the game doesn't exactly make it clear... the gameplay takes a lot of getting used to, as you use the wiimote to move the camera, but unlike zelda's fairy cursor, it moves the screen (if that makes sense) meaning i spend most of my time concentrating on keeping the cam steady than being all stealth-like. its also very heavily scripted, there doesnt seem to be much freedom, but then i'm not very far through it yet as i was stuck on the damn lock picking for so long!

Now you said that Paul I remember it the same method of unlocking as in the older cell games. You wait until you can feel a rumble then hold it steady. At least your sussed it out in the end :wink:
