    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - Mobilized tries to be like his big brothers on the consoles, but doesn’t pull it off completely.

    Making a shooter for the DS: it’s not an easy task. Mobilized is a fairly enjoyable go at the genre on the handheld that impresses technically. Even the controls work. Still, it begs the question: who wants to play this game on the DS if you can play it on a big screen at home?

    A portable version of the main franchise. Some issues with the control system but a great multiplayer.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized is an ambitious and very worthy shooter on the Nintendo DS, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

    Solid and playable but not terribly exciting. [Christmas 2009, p.65]

    Mobilized is an impressive package from a technical standpoint, even though it won’t keep you entertained for that long. But it’s definitely a fun experience while it lasts, assuming you’re a fan of DS first-person shooters. I’d steer clear otherwise — unless, you know, you like drunkenly shooting at pigeons.

    The four unlockable modes might keep hardcore fans coming back, but I didn’t find much reason to stick around. Challenge and Arcade modes are rewrapped campaign levels, and the Minigame mode features puzzles you’ve already found the solution to in the campaign.

    Ultimately, Modern Warfare: Mobilized lacks personality and polish. Hardcore Call of Duty portable gamers are better off buying last year's World at War DS.

    Mobilized cannot completely emulate its older brother and should get better at what makes it unique.

    If you’re starved for some FPS love on your DS, you might want to give this game a shot. However, even its predecessor provides a more engaging experience, not to mention a few other notable DS titles, specifically Moon.

    I definitely suggest holding off on buying this game, at least until it’s in the $5 bargain bin. You can rent it if you really feel the need to try it out, but even that may be a misappropriation of funds.

    It feels like whatever budget this game had was blown on the audio and visuals in the game, leaving the story and design team scrambling with what little finances they had leftover to make a worthwhile game out of it. Unfortunately for them, the game comes up feeling pretty shallow. While I give it props for having an expensive looking sheen, it’s definitely not a noteworthy DS game in any other respect. Do yourself a favor and leave this one to gather dust on the shelves.

I would call this one of the best shooters on the DS, but this is the only FPS I've actually played on Nintendo's handheld console. So I'll say that its a great translation from Modern Warfare 2 and the controls and gameplay really suit the DS. Bad graphics, but playing DS games is about the experience, not the graphics. The single-player campaign is good enough and the mulitplayer is pretty good too.… Full Review »
