Metriod Prime Hunters is an excellent first person shooter for the DS. Its is my favorite game for my DS.
In single player, you play as Samus Aran, one the strongest bounty hunters in the galaxy. You go from planet to planet, trying to find Almbic artifacts; the keys to the octoliths. The Octoliths are said to contain the key to the "ultimate power." On your journey, you will come in counter with many other bounty hunters, who are als looking for the Octoliths, and you will have to fight them.
The single player game is action-packed, and very, very entertaining.
The downside to the single player is that you might find yourself tediously backtracking and checking the map, but heck, thats Metriod.
Although campaign can be very fun, the real action happens on nintendo wifi. On wifi, you will be able to battle people from all over the world in 4 player matches. Also, you can choose from 7 different hunters to play as. Each hunter has different strategies, weapons, and a unique alt form. Your score of wins, losses, and even your favorie weapons, charactors, and levels will be recorded in your hunters license. To get to the point: this multiplayer is extremely fun! Asiding that there might be a few bugs that people might exploit, you will find yourself glued to your DS.
There are two different control schemes that you can use. You can use the regular control by using the stylus to aim and the D-Pad or the button pad to move, (depending if you are right or left handed.) L or R is used to shoot. Overall, the controls are just right.
To conclude, MPH is a very exciting, fun, and entertaining game. If you own a DS, pick this game up!
