...Modern Warfare Mobilized is quite beastly. I don't believe it has the following of Metroid Prime Hunters or Resistance: Retribution, but it's very solid.
Graphics [8/10]
World at War was one of the best technical achievements on the DS. Mobilized tops it in every way, shape, and form. Who knew that you could have a DS FPS that looks better than 5th generation graphics?
Unfortunately, before a truely awesome-looking Modern Warfare experience comes our way, some things need smoothed out. Occasionally I'll try to snipe someone from long-distance, but it's too hard. I know this may be because of the small screen, but I would love it if there were some sort of "zoom in" option. Then again, it would be very cheap.
Sound [9/10]
The best part of any Co DS game is the sound. I never knew that my DS could pump out these awesome tunes. Or the nice gun noises. Or the large amount of voicework. I don't see this getting much better.
Gameplay [7.5/10]
A slight slower and easier single-player campaign would be nice. Though I must give props to the variety. Remember: this is a completely different game from Modern Warfare 2. It's designed with the DS in mind. Too bad that it could've been design better. A reasonably enjoyable experience, with some frustraions along the way. Gah... RC stealth mission...
Multiplayer [8.5/10]
Better than Hunters. Yes, I said it. Mobilized allows for many diferent types of solo and team matches. Oh, it's six-player, not four-player. Ya know, so we can actually have semi-decent teams? While perks are gone, you do get new weapons one you enough kills.
I highly reccomend you play this with friends only. You'll thank me later.
Controls [7.5/10]
I like the DS FPS controls more than most people. My hands have become uncrampable after all the hours I spent with Hunters, Dementium, and Moon. But I don't see other gamers having all-nighters of Mobilized... if they know what's good fot their hands. You hold the DS with your off hand, aim with the stylus in your strong hand. Holding the DS with one hand isn't exactly comfortable, of course.
Replay Value [8/10]
I don't think anybody would go through the campaign more than more than once. It's hard. But if you can find some buddies, Mobilized will last you until the enevitable Mobilized 2 comes out (I can read Activision's mind.
OVERALL [8/10]
Verdict: Holding it to console standards is a waste of time. Holding it to handheld standards makes Mobilized a must-have DS game for fans of the FPS genre.
nice revieW
Ah, is it worth buyin' the game 1 week before gettin' MW2on the 360?
