I just wanted to know if there are any good "noob friendly" shooters for NDS? I want to learn, and simply playing Gears of War 2 is like sky diving with no parachute really.... Any suggestions?
NDS is a bad console for FPS games. Best way to learn would be something like Half-Life, Doom, Quake 1 or 2, unreal tournament or the original wolfenstein on PC. Half Life is an excellent game and should be pretty cheap second hand now.
A really good DS shooter is Dementium... Only problem is that it's a tad on the scary side... I can't even play it at night I'm such a baby xD.
But I think Dementium is to hard for a newby! If you want to start with fps on your ds try out call of duty 4, metroid or brothers in arms! These games have a nice tutorial and arent too hard in the first missions!
You really think that cod5 is good? In my oppinion it sucks! The missions have a terrible framerate and the multiplayer is ok, but not more! CoD4 is much better!
Havent noticed bad framerate, it has the same engine that cod 4 has. In cod 5 weapons and maps are cooler + cod 4 doesn't have multiplayer. Wtf? CoD5 (call of duty) is not Turn-based, have you even played the game???
CoD4 has a multiplayer but not wifi! But if got enough friends around me with a DS so there is no negative for me! And to the Framerate: Yes, it is the same engine, but the mappers were too good^^ There are to many objects and charecters at the same time in the missions and it begin to lag! @1blacks1: The game you mean is Tom Clancy Endwar!
Blacks got pwned. Go for Metroid or COD, they play the same style. But remember, being good on a DS FPS, doesn't mean you'll be good on a console FPS. So better to go for a PC one or something.
Metroid would be your best bet as far as NDS shooters go but the NDS is a poor system for shooting games because of it's lack of a proficient aiming system. Try finding some people that are at a similar level to you skill-wise in gears and play some unranked with them. Also, watching some very good play and catching onto some of their strategies and moves will help you out as a new player as well.
I will pick up on Gears of War once I come back from my mom's house. I went to visit. *Needed a vacation*....ROFL I really appreciate everyone's advice on what games to start out playing and how to get better.
Brothers in Arms is a great shooter, but it's 3rd person....in some scenes... COD gets boring, and metroid is the best (In my opinion) FPS.
Just Play Quake 2 on the PC or if you got 2 Flashcards (Flash card for Slot 1 and Flashcard for Slot 2) get quake 2 on your DS http://quake.drunkencoders.com/index_q2.html You need a copy of the Orginal Quake 2 PC game, but dont worry, just ask me, i got a friend thats got the orginal, hel borrow it me anytime
