    This should be moved to the Nintendo DS section..
    yea Metroid Hunters is hard alright :-)
    I'm using the digital left setup right now where you look around using the dpad instead of the touch screen..

    It is just another crappy console FPS without the precision of mouselook with the stylus ...

    The stylus gives me cramps. I'm not used to using the thumbstrap and when I try it doesn't work for me..
    The Dpad is the next best thing but it is inaccurate..
    I have to play more using the thumbstrap sometime..

    The stylus is just too cumbersome (also holding it too tight during the game...cramps). Been using the thumbstrap but during fast action just use my finger nail (they're not that long or sharp). The game control is different...not quite ready for on-line battles. Kind of disorienting at first because of the controls/hud and dualscreen.

    Shane were you being sarcastic or do you really dislike the game?

    I think he meant if you play it using the dpad like I am right now it comes across as another console FPS..

    Correct ... I attempted to play it with the Dpad+button:look and was completely unable to function. My only hang up with the DPAD+Stylus is that my left finger isn't as comfortable as a trigger finger. I need to try the other side and see if it's better.

    The game is an amazing achievement and for a short time, I imagine I'll like it. Honestly, right now, Tetris is getting all my free time.
