This is a decent port of a major-console title onto the DS. The graphics are solid (of course they're not near on par with the xbox or ps2 but still, sam does look good on the ds), the gameplay itself is solid - what is not solid is the controls. I am a left handed person, and I really hate that the D-PAD is used to control/move sam, and the stylus is how you switch camera, while at the same time using the buttons (sometimes 2 or 3 at a time) to perform various actions - that is a bit much for a control scheme, and something a little bit on the simple side would have worked much better. But overall, this is a decent game. It is not for kids at all, in the sense that you perform espionage-type tactics, you have to think a lot more than you can run-and-gun, and for people who appreciate strategy-action-warfare will like this game a lot. Everyone else will probably consider it a failed effort. Decent, not bad, but not great either. C +
