Hurry up Mr. Halbred and review this game. I'm still on the fence (leaning towards getting it though).

Halbred · « **Reply #27 on:** January 22, 2009, 04:30:45 PM »

Get it, GP. The glitch is easily avoided, and I'm having an absolute blast with it. Haven't quite beaten the game yet. Expect a review up by the weekend, though.

Well my first experience with the game was good. I just got RAD and got to the point where it tells you how to switch back to your main guy. Only one problem the game locked up on me. So instead I went and played Elebits 2. Hopefully this is an anomaly and not the norm!

For those interested in getting the game.Gamestop has it for $19.99.
A nice decrease for the game.

Thanks for the tip Maxi, I went to Gamestop and picked it up tonight. It had not been at any other store I checked, so I figured I better grab it before it's rarer than Nanostray.

Oh, wow, I might go tomorrow. Thanks for the tip!

One question for everyone though. Does anyone else play left handed? I always felt a little uncomfortable using the face buttons and not the d pad on Hunters. Is this something your hand adapts to?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #32 on:** February 14, 2009, 05:00:51 AM »

I played Dementium left handed. It was kind of hard.

Stratos · « **Reply #33 on:** February 14, 2009, 05:42:03 AM »

It dissuaded me from finishing Hunters and I'm a little worried about how it will turn out in Moon.
Though if there is more exploring and less death match like fighting it might not be as much of an issue.

Apparently this week only gamestop has a price drop of 19.99 on this game.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #35 on:** February 14, 2009, 02:17:26 PM »

Played about an hour so far. Very good game, much better than Dementium. The storytelling is well done. Graphics are really good and control is better. Levels can be a little box like, but I am enjoying this so far.

I like the game a lot but for some reason when I got to the first timed driving mission I stopped playing for awhile.

SirSniffy · « **Reply #37 on:** February 27, 2009, 12:16:24 PM »

Mine should be arriving soon. I like what I see so far in the movies and demo I played. The voice is solid...not the voicework, but the quality of the voice.

IGN said in the Nintendo Voice chat podcast that MOON sold horribly so far like under 5000 units or something.

It was under 1500 units.

It made me want to run out and buy it but I can't afford to, I already spent more than I should have for February and March on gaming.

Flames_of_chaos · « **Reply #41 on:** February 28, 2009, 02:22:00 PM »

Well the game was basically sent to die with no advertisement support from it's publisher. Also it came out at a bad time after the xmas buying season and during a crap economy.

Stratos · « **Reply #42 on:** February 28, 2009, 08:21:36 PM »

Would you say that there just isn't much of a demand for FPS games on the DS?

I disagree, after Metroid Prime Hunters I'm sure there was a demand for FPS games on DS the problem is everyone one of them except for Golden Eye Rogue agent and maybe the call of duty DS games none of them had multiplayer.

So to adjust my statement; would you say there is a demand for deathmatch FPS gaming on the DS and a lack of demand for solo-based FPS gaming on DS?

After all, didn't Goldeneye on the N64 and Halo on the first XBox sell crazy mostly due to the multiplay?

Yes, if Moon and Dementium had some multiplayer component I'm sure there would be more incentive to purchase a copy. There's nothing wrong with a single player only FPS but the length has to be justified for the lack of multiplayer.

Halbred · « **Reply #46 on:** March 03, 2009, 03:32:34 PM »

I'm really sad that people aren't buying the game. It really deserves recognition and financial success.

Stratos · « **Reply #47 on:** March 05, 2009, 05:52:40 AM »

Apparently the publisher is reporting a larger number of units were sold than reported by NPD. Supposedly it sold 3-4 times what NPD suggests.

That's what was mentioned on the latest Nintendo Voice Chat.

So 4500-6000 is more accurate though that still isn't terribly much.

rbtr · « **Reply #48 on:** March 07, 2009, 03:07:49 AM »

I picked this up because of the gamestop price cut.

It's pretty alright. It's surprisingly good considering the size of the dev team, the budget which I imagine was small, and etc. There's a lot of heart that went into it, it sort of reminds me of Scurge: Hive. I wish there was more enemy variety, or even better designed enemies. However it is fun blasting things, and the RAD is, well, rad...

AV · « **Reply #49 on:** June 16, 2009, 02:06:24 PM »

i bought it at Fry's this past sunday for also $19.99.

I just got RAD and to the nearest save point. I am so far very much enjoying it, the only problem is that the enemies seem to repeat and killing little robots isn't that interesting. I also miss rumble.

I had a DS rumble pak but I rarely used it, and it wasn't flush with the DS Lite so i sold it for like $2 or something, I am just used to it in FPS games so I miss it. To my knowing no US retailers carry the DS Lite rumble pak.
