I was ready to instantly dismissCall of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilizedwhen it was first announced. After finally seeing some video and screenshots though, um, holy crap!Mobilizedlooks really great! Great in the sense that it looks great on the limited powers of the DS. The developers, n-Space, seem to have done a great job with this handheld version.
