"On-rails Shooters: Not just for the Wii anymore.
The on-rail shooter is a genre we saw frequently on the Wii, rivaling mini-game collections as the genre the system saw most often. It’s easy to see why that was: the Wii remote’s pointer allowed for that type of game to be done more easily than any console that came before it.
Conversely, the controls available on the 3DS make that choice of genre seem odd. Heavy Fire: Special Operations 3D takes the same kind of shooter you’d see in Wii games like Ghost Squad, but has you aiming with the touch screen, a considerably less intuitive interface.", writes NintendoWorldReport.
Pocket Gamer: Terrorists, huh? Just think how many war video games we'd have been deprived of if it wasn't for them. Those lovable scallywags.
Heavy Fire: Special Operations 3D is another title that would have never seen the light of day were it not for those terrorist-y types, what with it being a terrorist shooter simulation an' all.
"Teyon, a video games developer and digital publisher, is excited to announce that their latest Nintendo 3DS™ title, Heavy Fire: Special Operations 3D, is coming to Europe. Join the Special Forces unit this Thursday, October 25th and get up close and personal with the enemy. The game will be available via the Nintendo eShop for €5,-." -- Wiiloveit.com (Official Press Release)
Ouch. Not much in the way of Nintendo downloadable goodness this week, with just three games available - all of which are 3DS-based and one of which is a retail download. Aside from some downloadable videos and a smattering of DLC, there's not much else to report. Still, there may be something in the update that tickles your fancy.
This game could have been alot better, if it wasn't so damn difficult!
Getting past the second level is next to impossible.
