This is sweet!
I've been gone for a little bit and look what happens!

Anyways, I like the 3rd-person perspective. I mean, I think we have enough 3d fps on the PPC (Dan's PQ, especially), and I am kind of sick of first person shooters in general. I like it. It probably has a more consistant frame-rate that way, too.

I wish the Zayo didn't cost so much...

The game has had left-handed landscape since way before the PocketPC Summit. It also has portrait mode (which I hate personally).

This is not a gameboy style game and has an amount of precision that you would expect in an FPS, instead of the typical isometric view. So you'll basically get wiped out if you rely too heavily on the dpad. But if thats the way you like to play...

We are working on the controls to make them as configurable as possible.

This is a multiplayer game, so those people with the best controls will have an advantage. The most used buttons won't be onscreen, so it won't be a matter of screen bashing. Onscreen buttons will be reserved for weapon switching, crouching and other modes that are used sparingly or rarely.
