I played the demo and it was pretty cool but I disliked the lack of auto-aim since poking the screen repeatedly was a hassle.

I'd like it more but it's actually painful to play. It's not easy to hold that thing in one hand and poke at the screen. I'll have to fuck with the control set up a bit more before I actually take that online.

Which is something I'd like to do iffin' I can ever get to the point where I can play it for more then five mintues without severe hand cramping.

I played a short demo of it. Yeah, controls are painful. Then again, plopping an FPS down onto a portable system is a bad idea. <p><hr />

The controls are changeable, you know. There are different schemes to allow for better ergonomicity. <p><span style="font-size:xx-small;">"It's in the air, in the headlines in the newspapers, in the blurry images on television.

Yeah, but less playabilty. Honestly, I like the idea of using the touch pad to look around and stuff. I just wish it felt better.

It took a good month of playing the demo to adjust to how it is, so I totally agree.

Edit: But it is still playable... it's just rather awkward at first.
