Just because this battle fits in the palm of your hand doesn’t mean the stakes are small. On the contrary, this all-or-nothing fight will have you accessing guns, grenades, launchers, and weaponry of all sorts. The controls are intuitive, but deciphering the enemy strategy is another matter entirely. The fighting takes place on a seemingly endless battleground, and variable camera angles cover the entire thing like it’s a television broadcast. Up to four players can duke it out for supremacy.
The war is on, and it’s all happening in the palm of your hand. Grab your guns and head out to kick some butt in this detailed combat simulation for the Game Boy Advance. The screens alternate between top-down and split-screen profile views, making for action that looks like it’s being broadcast live on CNN. The controls are simple to learn, but mastering the use of your entire arsenal is another matter entirely: With a massive selection of guns, grenades, and launchers at your disposal, you’ll have to make snap decisions regarding the best weaponry for the situation you’re in. If you’re a newcomer to the genre, there’s a Training mode that will help get you up to speed, and a detailed Map Editor that keeps things from getting old. Play against the computer’s stellar AI, or get up to four combatants battling it out via a link cable connection.
