Call of Duty comes to the DSNov 12, 2007
By N. Durham
"Big Evil"
First person shooters, especially first person shooters done right, are rare on the DS, and the Call of Duty series makes it's debut on Nintendo's handheld with Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. For those that don't already know, Call of Duty 4 marks the series' change of scenery from World War II to the modern day war combat, and it makes a surprisingly good debut on the DS as well. The first thing you'll notice is that the game offers some surprisingly good graphics that take advantage of what the DS can do, despite some occasional hiccups that occur. The game sounds spectacular as well, and the control is tight for the most part. The only real drawbacks of Call of Duty 4 is that, like it's home console bretheren, offers a pretty short single player campaign. Multiplayer mode is fun, but somewhat flawed, thanks to no offering of online play. Despite it's few negatives, Call of Duty 4 is a more than solid FPS on the DS that is good while it lasts, and for DS owners yearning for a modern day war shooter, look no further.

Great GameDec 09, 2007
By John D. Razan
"pennyhead"
This is a great game. It's fun, sometimes challenging and the graphics are pretty good considering the screen size it was made for. I've played all of the Call of Duties from 2 through 4 on three different systems and if you compare it to others that are meant for a larger display, you may be disappointed. But I was rather surprised that the quality was as good as it was. There are levels which are frustrating because they are a little harder than others. So if you enjoy playing on a small portable device, and it doesn't bother you that you can't play it online, then don't hesitate to purchase Call of Duty 4 for Nintendo DS!

 Solid but short and buggyDec 27, 2007
By Film Fan
Pros: Good sound, decent graphics. Simple fun. Physics are uninspired but if you have played CS 1.6 they are familiar. Mission objectives are well placed to get the most out of the ground levels. The explosives placement and disarming mini-games are fun. The AC-130 level is especially fun, and pleasantly unexpected given most modern combat games neglect this critical piece of air power. Weapon selection is minimal, but well rounded. 2 Assault rifles (M4 and AK47), 3 submachine guns (MP5, Mac-9 and Uzi) 1 shotgun, 1 pistol, RPG-7 in certain areas and 2 sniper rifles (Dragunov and Scout) and flash and frag grenades. I have not played the multiplayer.
Cons: Extremely short, almost too simple. The main storyline did not translate well from the console version as the cutscenes are replaced with well done but uninteresting comic book-like panels that poorly advance the story. There is a missing distinct feeling of scope and grandeur. Missions are more like arcade shooters, very 'rail' based and heavily scripted, only giving you one possible route through the map. The most tactically complex decision will be which side of a box to go around, and that is usually decided for you by the map design. The vehicle levels are the worst, no control over the vehicle at all, just the gun. Enemies are not static, and will miraculously appear where there were none before or were all killed sometimes spontaneously appearing if you move fast enough to beat the scripted event. AI is nonexistant, many enemies will take themselves out with their own grenades, and moving quietly to make the best tactical opportunity is impossible as the AI always knows where you are and starts shooting before you even come around the corner. This is especially frustrating when dealing with the snipers that kill in 1 shot. Clipping issues on many corners, enemies can damage you though corners but yet all your shots are blocked till you are well clear of the door or box. The touch screen controls are nice, but my hand tends to block too much of the screen at the extremes of the screen or when turning.

its not the greatest game, however.....Dec 30, 2007
By C. Goff
it certainly is a good game. The graphics are nice(nothing spectacular, but they do look nice), and gameplay is fun. The controls do take a little time to find that "sweet spot"(holding it comfortably for extended periods of time). I am about halfway through, and I havn't encountered any bugs or anything. The game plays just fine. The single-cartridge multiplayer is pretty fun, but gets boring after awhile. This a great fps game for the ds, however, only get it if you dont have a next gen console.
