  • Summary: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare for the Nintendo DS delivers an arsenal of modern weaponry, arming gamers with precision controls and touch screen capabilities for battle across the world's most dangerous hotspots. In an unfolding story that parallels the epic, high-octane PC and next generation console Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the Nintendo DS title enlists players as U.S. and coalition forces against a rogue enemy, where the action rages from land to the skies in all-out combat that threatens the world. Nintendo DS Touch Screen and Stylus – Intuitive stylus-based movement controls allows unique ways to construct explosive devices, disarm traps, and perform hand-to-hand combat. Diversity of Gameplay – Delivering a variety of combat, the title takes players from the soldier to the satellite with multiple scenarios. Gamers will experience mobilization as they fast-rope from tactical helicopters, engage hostile forces from an aerial gunship, and experience the ferocity of building to building fighting. Instant Action – Featuring the signature Call of Duty epic combat and intensity, the Nintendo DS title delivers an Instant Action mode allowing players to quickly access previously completed missions. Multiplayer Support – Leveraging wireless local area network (WLAN) for ad-hoc connectivity, up to four players quickly ease into the visceral action of modern warfare combat. [Activision]… Expand

    The game's biggest strength is in how well it establishes the tone and feeling of the console CoD4 games. The fast pace, mission structure, and gameplay are all distinctly Call of Duty, and everything performs beautifully.

    What it will deliver is a campaign long enough to keep players busy, and more importantly, interested throughout.

    Some of the game's flaws can be overlooked but the checkpoint weapon bug is inexcusable and the nearly complete lack of enemy AI is essentially the equivalent of taking Doom's enemies and making them forget to move forward.

    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 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

    Repetitive gameplay and dumb enemy AI prevents this game from being what it could be. Overall a rental at best.
