Ecks vs. Sever

Based on an upcoming movie, Crawfish?s nihilistic Ecks vs. Sever is an impressive testament to the theoretically magical properties of the GBA, and proof that the little guy can deliver FPS mayhem as intense as its bigger console brothers.

The handheld FPS assault begins with Ecks vs. Sever, a splendid little symphony of brutality set against a backdrop of governmental conspiracies. The stealth-orientated missions are intense, requiring strategy as opposed to just a twitchy, random mowing-down of anything that moves?though there?s a little of that, too.

The pixelated graphics won?t immediately rock your world, but the more you play the more you?ll marvel at the smooth animation, cleverly designed levels, and awesome infrared effects. Although the ability to aim up and down would have been helpful, the controls make good use of the GBA?s limited button configuration. The great explosion, bullet, and loading sound effects require that you play it with your headphones on. It?s as solid a handheld FPS experience as you?re likely to find.
