C.O.R.E., out now for the Nintendo DS, is a first-person shooter in the style of the classic PC titles Quake and Doom and it looks like Nintendo, along with Poland’s NoWay Studio, are pushing the boundaries of what the Nintendo DS can do graphically. Just check out this video of in-game footage:
The DS is not known for it’s first-person shooters, and C.O.R.E. joins a very select rank of titles on the format: Dead n Furious, Dementium: The Ward, Metroid Prime Hunters and Call of Duty 4 & 5; where C.O.R.E stands out from the (albeit small) crowd is in squeezing super-smooth, almost N64-caliber, 3D graphics out of Nintendo DS hardware. Check out the specs:
- Liquid smooth graphics and advanced A.I.
- Penetrate 15 huge non-linear levels in a diverse and dangerous environment.
- Face 20 formidable enemy classes equipped with a deadly arsenal of weapons.
- Choose from eight powerful weapons (including alternate firing options and zoom).
- Compete with up to four players in MULTIPLAYER in three popular modes including Death Match, Team Arena and Capture the Flag – using only one NDS card!
- Highly interactive environments: use vehicles, operate tools, switches, controllers, access cards, open boxes and blow up objects.
- Immersive dark atmosphere intensified by heavy music and special effects.
