It doesn' t look that bad, though whether or not the gameplay hold up...

Sure it does have problems but nothing a sequal wont fix. But knowing Ubisoft, we will get the sequal. and about 20 million more spin offs. Glad it sold well though. Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine. Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

I just can' t believe they are throwing this as the DS...be honest here vut the DS is a childs handheld, why give it an adult or mature persons game?

Most adults don' t play handhelds Really I know quite a few adults who have handhelds, so please don' t generalise. The point being made is that it is being ported to the DS which is aimed at children ie those under the age of the game.

On the other hand, few children play those adventure/detective kind of games on DS I suppose. And stuff like Metroid and some other shooters is also probably more part of what " regular gamers" play. Then there' s also Ninja Gaiden on DS which makes me suspect that developers might see some audience there after all. At least enough to recover costs maybe?
