    Picked this up second hand in a store. It's quite an old game, I will give it that. All I can say is that if you have played resident evil revelations with circle pad pro on the DS then playing COD4 on the DS will seem like going back to your playstation 1 days. Awful graphics, awful control scheme.

    As MusicJJJ said, "Modern Warfare" DS is pretty difficult at first, but you'll get use to it after a while.

    Looked good from screenshots and gameplay videos but when I got it and played it, wasn't as fun as I thought it'd be. Enemy AI is pretty bad. They stay in the same spot and will never move. They won't chase you or do anything but shoot. The shooting is quite repetitive and there's no satisfaction when you take down enemies as their death animations are always the same.

It takes a lot of bullets to kill them too if you don't shoot them in the head and they don't animate when they get shot at (unlike in say..Goldeneye)...they just twitch. There's a good focus on storyline and atmosphere. Sound is ok but the a lot of the guns sound muffled and not crisp. Music is the one thing that's very well done....sounds like a movie. Overall though it's an average game. Metroid Prime Hunters still beats the pants off it. If COD4 had online play it would have been better. Expand

    The control and sound is good. The graphics are technically good but all the polygons look so unappealing like an N64 game. The A.I. is stupid, and you can tell that the enemies respawn. They do in the council version, but it's a lot less obviouse. This game may be good if the council versions did not exist, but they do and comparison cant be helped. It covers basically every element The control and sound is good. The graphics are technically good but all the polygons look so unappealing like an N64 game.

This game may be good if the council versions did not exist, but they do and comparison cant be helped. It covers basically every element from the council version, but it feels so watered down in comparison. If you want a good shooter on the DS get Metroid Prime Hunters. This game really isn't that great. Expand

    Really good for a DS FPS, but really bad when you compare it to a home console FPS. Multiplayer is good, but I would rate this game 9 if it had bots.

    Meh. I though this was just average. Ive seen cooler shooters on GBA. Seeing graphics that looked straight out of Half Life (not 2, the first game) and a bit like Morrowind disappointed me. The controls are extremely annoying. I swear I reckon I've seen better shooters on the GBA truly.

    I barely made it through the start bit before I just put my DS down and said to hell with it.

    Игра средняя. В игре вроде есть всё что и на PC, но графика для не готовых будет ужасна. Есть головоломки которые не плохо заполняют время стрельбы. Но есть гигантское но это управление оно ужасно.

    An impressive, immersive, entertaining pocket experience that truly feels like a miniaturized version of its console counterparts.
  2. Stick to the solo game and you'll get a decent, serviceable shooter that would have been memorable in 2000 - today, not so much. It does a respectable job of replicating the console experience, but it's still no replacement for the real thing.
  3. A surprisingly well-executed action game that actually comes close to being a nearly perfect first-person shooter on the DS handheld.
