Many of you would remember the Point Blank games as a comical and wacky variation on a genre that normally consists of more mature themed subject matter, the central peripheral being a gun and all. You can expect to be shooting up clay ducks, bouncy skeletons, spinning UFOs and all other manner of family friendly foes by using the stylus as your weapon and the DS touch screen as your killing field, er, make that 'happy shooting place'.
Point Blank DS will consist of a total of 5 gameplay modes. 'Arcade' mode makes up the bulk of the game and includes 4 levels of difficulty. 'Versus' mode allows wireless multiplayer action and supports single cartridge play. The curiously titled 'Brain Massage' acts as an ongoing statistical mode, where the game feeds back various percentages as you progress through the stages. Rounding out the modes is the high score centric 'Freeplay' and 'Games Museum', a nostalgia inducing romp through stages inspired by Namco's old school arcade series.
Not much else is known about the game at this time, but rest assured that PALGN will keep you informed. Stay tuned.
I think that it should be pretty good, the DS needs more games like this.
