Seriously, the GameSpot review of this is totally bias. You hold the DS just as you do with Metroid Hunters.

The GameSpot review says, "You're forced to hold the DS with just one hand--more specifically, with the sides of your fingers while your index finder is crooked over the left shoulder button. After a few levels, the pain can be excruciating to the point where you may have to take a break to rest your hand. "

This issue never came up for Metroid Hunters and it was praised as one of the best control schemes for the DS. I'm sorry, but this game feels exactly the same in my hand as it did with Metroid. Just because its not a featured Nintendo title doesn't mean it should get the shaft.

I'm sure the score of 6.0 was also reflected on the story and lack of objectives, but Aaron Thomas was clearly comparing the console versions to this DS title. That's totally bias and I must say is totally unfair. For a DS title, this game holds up REALLY well and I totally agree with Nintendo Power's score of 9.0. The controls are amazing, the story is decent and the graphics are fantastic; possibly one of the best I've seen on a DS game. If you're going to emphasize how horrible it feels in your hand, you should start comparing it to a great FPS that's already on the system, and look-it-here... there's Metroid Hunters, and it feels exactly the same.
