A real leap for handheld gaming!
Atlast nintendo have shown us the way, MP:H is a spectacular demonstration of what the DS is capable of on nearly every front. The controlls feel sublime to use rivaling those of a mouse and kb. Graphicaly this game realy stands out on the DS some how managing to realy feel like the GC games rather than a ported N64 game. Obviously I'm not saying that it looks like a GC game but it does an extremely good job of fooling you into thinking it.
The single player mode is classic Metroid with a little extra shooting thrown in for good measure and realy feels at home on the DS. For a portable game its lengthly and very rounded out with plenty to do and see.
However the real crown in MP:H's crown is its multiplayer. With its wide variety of maps and game modes, a good selection of playable characters all with diferent abilities, online play and that controll scheme the multiplayer game is worthy of recognition as one of the best first person shooters on any platform let alone handhelds.
To sum up, if you own a DS and dont already own this game then go and buy it, you will not be dissapointed.
