The Other Dark Side of the Moon
Set on the Earth’s moon in the mid-21st century, in Moon, players take on the role of Major Kane. Chief of Military Operations for the Extra Terrestrial Encounter Organization (ETEO), you and your team have been brought in to investigate a series of weird happenings. Ever since the Roswell incident it has been clear that Earth has been visited by other beings, now a hundred years later it would seem that something similar may be happening on the moon. Friend with a distant lunar outpost was lost before long after they reported discovery of a ‘hatch’ of alien origin during a routine excavation. What follows could be the next giant leap forward for mankind, but just what are we stepping into? No matter what it is, erratic energy readings from deep not more than the lunar surface has you thinking that it will not be a diplomatic mission. Welcome to the Moon Major.
Gameplay in Moon is split between what you would see in traditional action/adventure and a FPS sports meeting. This means that players can expect a variety of explorable environments tied to an immersive storyline, and lots of interaction with weapons and vehicles from a first-person perspective. But the driving aspect of gameplay in Moon revolves around its episodic format. Dedicated to the mobile nature and thus the need for multiple and simple save game saves, Moon is designed to be played in a continuous series of episodes. Each of these can be played at one of three levels: rookie, normal or experienced person; providing a wealth of play options, no matter the level of skill of the player. Weapons and Vehicles
The alien enemies, bosses and terrain that you will encounter in Moon necessitates the need for an arsenal of futuristic weaponry and transport options. Not more than are just a few of the weapons and vehicles players can expect to use both above and not more than the lunar surface:
 |
Fermion Sniper An advanced sniper system utilizing a high-density laser to strike over long distances, its wire-thin beam is nearly silent and invisible and usually only noticeable as a huge eruption of heat at impact. |
 |
LOLA-RR10 With an armor piercing laser steeple and all terrain capabilities, the Low-Gravity Land-Based Reconnaissance Repulse vehicle provides devastating recon and combat functions. |
 |
Seeker Pod A prototype gravity weapon, the seeker pod generates a temporary gravity field around a slow moving pellet, crushing all material within the spherical targeted areas it is aimed at. |
 |
Remote Access Droid (RAD) A small reconnaissance robot that links to user’s sensory input and productivity, a RAD allows users to explore hostile lunar environments that would otherwise be off limits. |

Wow this game was very fascinating, but with less interest and more thing. Anyway this is 2 stars at its high point, not sure where the high point is but it there some place in the game.
After playing Metroid Prime: Hunters you will see what a FPS on DS is all about, I highly recommend MPH, I do not recommend this one, unless you are a huge Sci-fi fan or have to play every FPS available on the DS, like my self
If your friend has it, borrow it for a few days and beat it, it’s small, and thank God it’s small…. and also not very hard. You will be pleased you didn’t buy it.
The movement in the game is eerie, they tried to make him walk with steps, not slide around like it should be (only because is a small screen on a DS) so you are constantly bobbing up and down, and the cross hair is way too shaky, also no jump.
There is this small RC truck you guide around to unlock force fields and gain bonus levels so that’s clean, it mixes up the game a bit, and you can stun your enemies with it and then switch back to you and shoot them with out them shooting back.
The tale sucks unless you read every terminal you find, it tells bits and pieces of the history of the moon scheme/human harvesting thing they got going on.
You get to guide a bit, that is such a dissipate of time, it’s like they threw it in there to mix it up, the bosses are terrible and the AI oh man the AI is so terrible. Lets not forget about the music, the WORST music in any video game EVER!!!
And no online play.
No there is one plus, you can stick your Rumble Pak in the advance slot, it helps a bit.
So if you must have this game, make sure you have a Rumble Pak, try and unlock everything, read every terminal, play it on rookie to get threw it quick and then maybe with the sound turned way down, you might just delight in it.

I don’t really care for the controls of this FPS. I got used to them, but there should be away to change them instead of just switching from right hand to left hand controls.
Using the stylus to aim and the directional pad to go was a bit frustrating at times.
When the game started I was into it, but as I played more it seemed like everything was the same. It was so repetitive.
Maybe i’ll just give up on FPS’s for the DS doesn’t seem like there are any decent ones out there.
I also despised that when you die it takes you way back to the save point. That made me want to flush this POS down the toilet. I’m just going to sale the game instead. Too terrible I can’t get all of my cash back.

First person shooters on the DS were basically exercises in trial and error (mostly error) once upon a time, but over the past couple years, we’ve seen the genre get progressively better on Nintendo’s smash hit handheld. Renegade Kid, the developers behind the solid Dementium: The Ward, bring us Moon for the DS, which I’ve been looking forward to for a while now. A space-based FPS that puts you in the shoes of Major Kane, who has responded to a distress call on the moon, and finds himself trapped in a very terrible situation. Unlike Dementium, Moon’s emphasis isn’t so much on shooting action, but on exploration, puzzle, and more traditional adventure elements. Kane also has access to RAD, a small droid that can come in pretty handy during gameplay, and adds some approach into the by and large gameplay as well. Technically speaking, Moon looks and sounds wonderful for a DS game. Despite the similar looking areas and environments, the game offers up some impressive textures and animation, and the controls are pretty polished to boot. All in all, Moon is a very fun experience that delivers the goods, and is certainly worth your time if you’re an FPS loving DS owner.

Being new to the DS Lite crowd, Moon was my second game to buy for the system. I really loved the game (even on the rookie mode). It was challenging but straight forward in the game play. NEVER dull! I highly recommend this game!

After playing a couple of first person shooters lately on the DS, it sparked my interest to find one that was in fact decent. I’d played “Touch The Dead” & “Demntium: The Ward” and they where decent enough, but too repetitive and got dull very quickly. This game is a bit of a step up over both of those sports meeting, but not quite as much fun as grown-up sports meeting like Doom & Duke Nukem which would be nice to see a DS version of soon.
The tale of this game is that you are on the moon as a research team or something, and suddenly aliens have arrived. I reflect the gist of it was the Earth team was exploring alien artifacts on the moon and the aliens came back. You start out by having to speak to your commander or someone, who briefs you by the side of the way by radio (on screen text) and you grab a gun and head into the alien underground to seek things out, find out what happened, and kill the terrible guys by the side of the way. The control is pretty excellent, it’s the same as “Dementium the ward” where you use your stylus to look around/aim, use up to go forward, and the shoulder L button to fire. Opening doors and things just requires you click on open on the screen when you see it highlight.
By the side of the way you will pick up a variation of weapons to choose from machine guns to lasers that have light potential to huge flourishing weapons. A varietal of much better weapons then in the other two sports meeting i mentioned. All up there is around 16 to 17 levels, and extra 18 to 24 if you find all the hidden artifacts in the game.
What I found unique about this first person shooter was the control of both character, and these remote control car things that you use to get into chairs your human character cannot (small areas) and it is a needed condition to do, not just something on the side to figure out later. You may need to use your remote vehicle to gain access behind energy shields and disable them by shooting potential sources so the shield is lowered for your character to be able to walk owing to.
What else was refreshing was the moon buggy. You in fact get to guide it and cruise around on the moon from destination to destination while still shooting up aliens. The aliens themselves range from small flying droids to larger alien robot like things with alien heads controlling them… there isn’t a splendid deal of different kind of enemy’s, but it felt far less repetitive then the other two sports meeting i mentioned before that you are probably sick of me saying those other two sports meeting i mentioned before.
By and large, so far, this is the best FPS game I have played on the DS. But I haven’t played a lot yet, so I am hoping there is something much better out there. But so far, if you are a shooter game fan, own a DS, then this one is worth checking out. It’s not splendid, but it’s not that terrible either!
