Hi all, apologies if there already exists a similar thread but anyways, I thought it would be nice if everyone who has themselves a copy or will be getting one soon come here together and post up their Friend Codes so that we can all frag each other :p

My WFC details are:
Name: k13ty
Friend Code: 3479-5983-7274

Anyways, in short, game is just fantastic. Although it's quite hard spotting enemies in far distances due to the graphics, it does run really smooth. Tried a match online, managed 3 kills but got killed 4 times :rolleyes: Left hand got a bit tired after all the constant shooting though. Once I get my DS Lite, it will be so 1337 :D

you played it online ?
 
I take it you live in America then as it was only released there today.

On a side note anyone got a DS working with a zyxel router.. driving me nuts :(
 
I played the MP mode against a mate (he has it). Seemed ok. Same with the SP mode as well.
My biggest gripe with the hour or so i spent with it is that it controls completely differentely to the demo version.
The controls are the 'same', but different (if that makes sence).
I found my hand aching after a few mins play with the full version, where as i can play the demo for hours without the aches.
Odd. :confused:
 
I'm guessing it's due to the constant L button pressing. I've had the same experiences as you too. In SP mode, it's fine but in MP, because I'm spending most of the time quickly tapping the L button, I start getting a cramp-like feeling. I think it's due to the fact that I've never had to use the left index finger this much in a game before :p
 
Just got this on Saturday, really enjoying SP so far, but my hand hurts too, going to try the thumb strap and see if it makes it better.

Not tried online yet, will give it a go tonight probably.

The thumb strap is VERY comfy indeed with it and works a treat.
 
Wouldn't it just use the mic that comes embedded?

Also, what do you recommend for my brother,
Goldeneye Rogue Agent or Metroid prime: hunters?

No competition at all, hunters is hugely superior.
