Challenging, great multiplayer, custom-made maps... the only thing not in this game is online play!

User Rating: 9.3 | Advance Wars: Dual Strike DS
Advance Wars: Dual Strike is the first time this series has been on the DS handheld. I personally have never played the GBA counterparts, but I don't need to to be able to say that this game does the series proud. There is so much to do in the game, so many different modes, battles, units, just so many possibilities, that there is no reason to but this game down for a long time after getting it.

Gameplay- 10- Its impossible NOT to give this game high marks for gameplay. The touch screen use of using units works great. The AI for the opponent COs are tough, but not cheap.And with the mission, war room, and many other modes, there is more than enough to experience to not put this game down for a LONG time!

Also, the different abilities each CO has really gives playing as different characters a completely different feel to each battle. The interactions between players also alter how they work during a dual strike, whicdh just gives the game some added diversification.

Graphics- 8- The game looks good for 2D, but this is the DS... it'd be nice to see some 3D graphics on the next game, maybe with some cel-shading to units to allow some nice 3Ding of the game.

Sound- 9- Many sounds & music that all fit the game very well

Value- 10- So much to do & so fun to do it, this game deserves every point

Tilt- 9- It deserves a 9, with some 3D and an online battle mode on the next one, this game series could reach perfection.
