As if sleeping dogs shouldn't be left to lay, the EA's underwhelming Goldeneye: Rogue Agent as already seen on GameCube, PlayStation2 and Xbox is now available on Nintendo DS, stripped to fit.

One of the foremost problems in making any first-person shooter (FPS) game for any dinky handheld device is the things are so, well, dinky. Frantic running and gunning just loses its chutzpah when your nose bonks the screen as you lean in for details.

That said, all things portable considered, the game does look greater than average and, on occasion, impossibly huge. But again, you've got to get pretty intimate with your DS to notice. Unique to this DS version of Goldeneye are a few different control schemes, one of which lets you use the touch-sensitive lower screen like a mouse pad; an ambitious emulation of FPS PC conventions, but it's built for contortionists that seem to revel in double-jointed interfacing while hyper-extended wrists balance bi-folding slabs of technology at half an arms length. Lefties? Forgettaboutit. Besides which, most will prefer the more familiar use of A, B, X, Y buttons for aiming (which would be an analog thumbstick aimer on a console), though that's clunky and remindful of why FPS games don't really work on portable devices.

But if you can handle your DS like it's second skin and you like uninspired FPS games on the go, Rogue Agent is for you.
