This game isn't easy to play! The controls are very poorly thoughts out. They want you to shoot with your left trigger finger, steer Pit with your left thumb, and control your target marker with the stylus. I haven't play much but I'm hoping I can find a better set up as I have read that the controls are very easy to customize! The graphics and sound are great! I'd love to see them make another side scroll game!

I loved the old Kid Icarus back in the day, and I was hoping for something that would really pay tribute to it, but this really isn't that. It plays completely different and feels a little bit like a show piece for the 3DS rather than a game made for its own sake. Control is designed to use the stylus to aim and one hand on the 3DS which is unwieldy. Luckily it comes with a stand for your 3DS which does work very nicely, but its such a different game it really doesn't do Kid Icarus justice. That said, graphics are great and it's not a bad game taken on its own. There are options to change the controls so you don't have to use the stylus but they feel imprecise.

When I was out to but a Nintendo 3DS XL, I saw this game, seeing how I liked the image of this franchise in the Wii's Super Smash Brothers Brawl title, I decided to buy it and give it a whirl. It was my first 3DS title and I'm SOOOO glad it was. To begin, this game, as visually stunning as it is (even the 3D component works well with them), is extremely hard to categorize; it's an action-packed adventure with loads of arcade-like fighting and third-person shooting (there's a first-person view as well). Nevertheless, as intense as that might sound, its not as violent as it sounds either. This game has an awesome Solo mode where you mainly control the angel, Pit, who serves the Goddess of Light, Palutena, who vies to help humanity from its own woes and wars while confronting their own problems amidst the world of the Gods. There are a couple of levels that are exceptions, but are still as interesting as all the others. And that's where the magic of the game lies: there's practically NEVER a dull moment in this game - the levels are well-constructed with combinations of aerial combat that maneuvers like rail-shooting games and land assaults with gorgeous visuals to boot; amazing lighting and details across the board. But it's not all up to the graphics, ALL the characters in the Solo story mode, have SO much personality and spot-on deliveries of dialogue, that you'll definitely be laughing every now and then. I'm not highly knowledgeable of Greek Mythology but I think its safe to say that even the "Greek nerds" would find a number of qualities in the game's characters and plot. The Default Controls are overall, pretty smooth; even though trigger and movement on your left hand and your stylus on the Touch Screen to aim can feel awkward at times, it really depends on how you are positioned and/or seated. The stand that game is naturally bundled with, becomes useful with this notion if you are by a desk or table. The controls are also customizable to my knowledge. And the online (Together) mode (HOLY MOLEY the online mode!) is AWESOME; No jokes here; There's a team-based Light vs. Dark mode and a Free-for-all mode and they are all very playable, no dirty tricks, no players that cheat (or seem to cheat), just pure wholesome fun, especially after spending some hours in the solo mode. Together mode is not exactly something you can jump right into, but after gaining familiarity with the controls, your stats and enjoyment of the mode can easily reflect it. To top it all off, the PHENOMENAL soundtrack (composed by Motoi Sakuraba and others)certainly ties all these things together into a memorable game. Truly, a MUCH BETTER experience for a first game than Mario Kart DS, which was my first game for my Blue Original DS system. If you enjoy orchestrated music, Greek Gods, Fast-Paced Action, and/or Online Combat this will make an ideal game to accompany that freshly-bought 3DS of yours. The controls, while they may be awkward and might not entirely resolved fo you, everything else in this game is so epic and attention-grabbing, that you'll forgot all about the little inconveniences. Even the provided stand can alone be worth buying the game, as I see it would ideal stability for recording "Let's Play" videos. Make sure it comes with the game or buy it brand new.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I was skeptical when I saw many average (or bad) reviews of Kid Icarus: Uprising from popular game magazines and websites. Critics complained primarily about the controls. Still, I chose to buy the game hoping I could look past the alleged problems and enjoy a game crafted by the legendary producer of Super Smash Bros. Brawl -- Masahiro Sakurai. First of all, the gameplay is a blast. Single player consists of rather short levels that are split between air and ground battles. The air battles are ride-the-rails style, while the ground portions allow you to move Pit through the stage and discover treasures and secret rooms that hold different weapons, items, and powers. The exploration elements of the ground stages are linear but welcomed to contrast with the player's lack of control in the air stages. The air stages are fun to play in 3D, though not so much for the ground stages since the player is too focused on moving, turning around, etc. Regardless of whether a player decides to play in 2D or 3D, though, the game looks really beautiful -- especially the backgrounds! Pit and the goddess Palutena converse throughout the levels, which can be annoying at times. However, the humor of the conversations and the character development they provide outweigh the annoying qualities. And if a player disagrees, she can always turn the volume off. That being said, the volume will likely stay on during the approximately 12-hour campaign since the music is absolutely lovely. The story mode may be on the short side, but there is massive replay value to this game. Weapons that you can collect under much harder difficulties can be used in multiplayer mode, which is just as good as the single player story mode. The weapons can be combined and upgraded, along with Pit's powers, and tested in either a Light vs Dark team battle or a Free For All brawl. Like in Super Smash Bros., the multiplayer maps can get congested and chaotic a lot of the time. That simply adds to the fun of it, though. Just like in single player mode, the multiplayer options allow the player to collect new weapons and items to add to her collection. All that being said, I need to address the controls, which apparently ruined the game for many game reviewers. In my opinion, the controls are incredible. There is such a variety of control schemes that almost any type of player can find something that suits her. Not only can she adjust the functions of all the 3DS' buttons, but she can also alter the sensitivity of the cursor (which I recommend, since the default settings make it difficult to move the camera under stress). The default settings have Pit's movement controlled by the circle pad, while the cursor is controlled by the stylus. The L-button is used for shooting. I played the game for about 5 hours straight after getting it on the release day without the discomfort in my hand that many reviewers complained of. Even so, if the stylus doesn't suit a player, she can replace it by making the A,B,X,Y buttons control Pit's cursor. Pros: - Really FUN gameplay - Excellent replay value - Good, albeit chaotic, multiplayer - Beautiful music - Good graphics in both 2D and 3D - Humorous character development - Variety of control schemes Cons: - Pit and Palutena are slightly annoying - Muliplayer can be confusing on the tiny screen I highly recommend this game! 5 out of 5!Vollständige Rezension lesen
you get to fly around and shoot things! there are so many customization options! You can play the game at whatever difficulty you like! The voice acting is hilarious and great! Not for people who get motion sickness haha XD the only issue is that the control scheme tends to give your left hand cramps, but ah, well. It's still very fun!
