Product Description

In the year 2028 a massive meteor impacted in California's Mojave Desert. The U.S. military were quickly able to isolate the impact site and a top scientific team was dispatched to the zone to examine the meteor. Over the next two decades an underground research facility was built to examine the extra-terrestrial origins and the bizarre effects that the meteor is having on the natural environment and the people who come in contact with it. Now, twenty years after the meteor's arrival on earth, all communications are lost with the C.O.R.E. facility. Its time for you to step into the boots of Jason Crane, a member of an elite military unit dispatched to discover the mystery of C.O.R.E.

I was a little hesitant to purchase C.O.R.E because of the feedback I've gotten at forums but I still took the chance to buy and try it out. I'm glad I did! The game has exciting game play and even though the controls seems a little awkward, the guns were fun to shoot. The only downside to the game is the lack of save points, but everything else is awesome!! I'm trying to get a couple of my other friends to make the purchase so we can play multiplayer together : )

3.0 out of 5 stars A good FPS for the Nintendo DS, August 17, 2009

CORE is an FPS for the Nintendo DS. The Nintendo DS is not the best system for first person shooters. It simply lacks the horsepower to pull off a modern FPS. Keeping the NDS's limitations in minds CORE is not a bad game. you can't compare it to FPS's for modern consoles,so if you are looking for advanced AI and super smooth modern graphics you are going to be disappointed, however, if you compare it to lets say N64 shooters then on a technical level it's very impressive. I would say from a PC standpoint it falls somehwhere between the Quake II engine and the Unreal engine.

Technical limitations aside, CORE is a pretty fun game. It's not in the same league as Dementium or Metroid Prime Hunters, but it compares favorably to other shooters like Moon. Since there are very few FPS's for the NDS adn this is a fun game (again, as long as you judge for what it is and the platform it's on) then 25 dollars is not bad. If you don't have Moon, Dementium, MPH or Call of Duty for the DS I suggest you try them first (all are more creative) if you've played those other games out and are looking for something new you will like this too even if it isn't the best techincally (even by DS standards)and doesn't break any new ground in any way.

The controls are similar to other FPS's for the DS and work well with the Ds's touch screen. \

If yo are reading this and the price has come down below $20, then you can't go wrong otherwise unless you are a FPS junkie go to Youtube and check out some videos to see if this is for you.
