That being said, I was wishing for an Xbox 360 dual stick controller in no time flat. It felt awkward at first, but you do eventually get used to playing with the stylus. Moving your character is also accomplished with the d-pad and shooting is accomplished with either the left or the right trigger. You also guide which way your player is going with the stylus. By using the stylus on the touch screen you can look around and aim your reticle. I used both options on and off throughout my first couple of hours of gameplay but ultimately spent more time playing with stylus. On the positive side, MW3 Defiance does offer up two control options – stylus or button. ![]() Given my lack experience with shooters on the DS, I found the controls to be troublesome at first and it took quite some time to get comfortable with them. In fact, for those who have played any previous first person shooters on the DS where you are using either the stylus or buttons to move your character, MW3 Defiance controls should not be an issue for you. If you played previous CoD games on the DS you should not have much of a problem. Bottom line, I was impressed with the level variety in the game as you never know what you are going to get from one level to the next.Ĭontrol wise, MW3 Defiance has a learning curve. You will also control a tank in the game and command your forces to move much like you would in a SOCOM game. Other stealth sequences simply have you sneak around an area avoiding foot and vehicle patrols. The stealth sequences often involve sneaking up behind an enemy and shanking them with your knife. There are also sequences where you are sniping enemies from across a mountain top and there are stealth and vehicle missions as well. There are sequences where you are following your squad mates across snow packed terrain in typical first person shooter fashion. MW3 Defiance’s single player story features 14 levels that manage to mix up the gameplay much more than I expected. Nevertheless the story is perfectly suited for the handheld machine and for the game’s target audience. Sure, there is much more to it than that but in the end it is certainly a bare bones version of the home consoles storyline, not to mention it is a plotline FPS gamers have beaten to death. ![]() Britain and the United States have joined forces in an all out effort to prevent the Russians from inflicting chaos and global destruction. In terms of the single player story, MW3 Defiance starts out with a good old fashion Russian invasion. MW3 Defiance is a first person shooter (FPS) which does not always suit Nintendo’s handheld machine given the layout and limitations of the hardware however, given we have seen a few CoD games on the DS in the past, there was still plenty of room for optimism. Many of the bells and whistles from the console game are not included, so you should not go into the game expecting the ‘full meal deal’ so to speak. Much like its big brother on the bigger consoles, MW3 Defiance features a single player and multiplayer experience, yet it is a scaled back version of the home console versions of the game. ![]()
