Coded Arms is a lot of fun. Yeah the controls take a little getting used to but after about five to ten minuites it becomes second nature. My friend has it and has enjoyed the hell out of it. I've borrowed it a few times, but can't really afford shelling out money for games all the time. That's why I come here to get the best gaming for my dollar.
[quote name='daikaiju']I'm curious to know how Coded Arms pulls off the whole FPS control scheme with the PSP only having the one analog stick....hope I get to find out [/QUOTE]
Not very well. Mediocre game with lousy controls. Know how Untold Legends is a dream in terms of controlling movement and actions? This isn't.
[quote name='The Cheapest Ass Gamer']I'm really glad that Konami attempted the impossible and put a FPS on a handheld. This demonstrates what the PSP can do.[/QUOTE]
Actually, if you want *better* FPS on handheld, you could get it on the GBA in the form of Duke Nukem Advance. Not to mention the controls ... if anything the comparison to Rogue Agent on the DS makes it clear that the PSP has an uphill struggle to make *playable* FPS games. Sure it is pretty, but the playability is sorely lacking.
That said - SIGN ME UP.
Hey, it isn't great, but fun enough for a little romp.
I have always wanted to give Coded Arms a try since it sounds interesting the way the levels are randomly generated. Could it lead to a good amount of replayability? I guess I hope to win the game so I can find out!
I must be completely honest, I don't recall reading any reviews about this game but i've read so many lately perhaps it slipped my mind. Looks decent from the screan shot though.
I'd love to get this game as i am a sucker for FPS, and was looking forward to it's release. With the randolmy generated levels it will take a while to get boring. Alas i am currently saving all my spare money for the Xbox360 launch and decided not to buy any games untill after i get the X360.
Hopefully the control sensitivity won't diminish the graphics. I hate it when the screen zips by because I am pointing my gun all over the place. Cool prize pack.
I thought from the previews that Coded Arms was going to be awesome. However the reviews seem to either hate it or love it, so quite possibly I will love it. Sign me up!
