I don't think I'd ever want to play an FPS on a DS. The ideal platform for an FPS game is anything else than a portable. No mouse; no analog stick. Uh - forget it.What classic FPSs do you think can work great on the DS?
well halo already was possible on ds http://media.video.ign.com/ev/ev.html?dlURL=http://dsmovies.ign.com/ds/video/article/824/824346/halods2_flvds.flv%26object_ID=874110too bad it was cancelled....half life would also be pretty cool

It works just like a mouse. I've never been a fan of Metroid and I quite enjoyed this game.

After falling victim to the Metroid Claw, I will never play a FPS on the DS again. Having said that, I think it would be cool to see some classic FPS games such as Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D,Wolfenstein 3D, or Doom.
Ugh. Seriously guys I recently finished Hunters (like no more than 2-3 weeks ago), and the idea of playing another Stylus+D-Pad-controlled FPS on the DS makes me wanna favor my hands as I type this. So often I had to stop and put the DS down while playing that games because my hands litterally cramped to the point where it became painful. I wanted so much to finish the game A.S.A.P. so that I could:1. Put an end to the torture on my hands. Those boss and hunter battles were painful...litterally...2. Put an end to the tortues of my DS' D-Pad and left shoulder button. It seriously felt like I was wearing the thing out.Seriously, if thats the kind of control i'd have to put up with in order to achieve at least somewhat mouse-like aiming precision....no thanks.

Screw ports, make a ground up sequel to some of those games for the DS.
I'd like to see Rise of the Triad on DS. :)
I find First Person Shooters on handheld to be terrible. Generally its best to play most of them on PC. Portable shooters really aren't my idea of fun. Especially with the nub on the PSP and cramping stylus-styIe on the DS.
Handhelds are meant for games that can be played on the run, like music or puzzle games.
