Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops - Sony PSP

A great addition to the Metal Gear story. All fans should play this game!

The controls on this game have been rearranged from other metal gear games, which is the major drawback. Additionally, the ability to only carry 4 items is a pain. The camera isnt easy to manage even though its rotatable. Plus side...artsy cutscenes are cool, decent audio, and innovative team aspect.

Was a good game. I liked its format with the team based gameplay and the original controls but the story still seemed to falter at the end and felt cut off from a real conclusion. Only needed one play through but still gonna keep it for collections sake.

This game follows on the heels of MGS3: Snake Eater, and adds on to that story in some ways. I never got very far in Snake Eater, but this game refers back to many of the events I do know about, namely The Boss and the introduction of Revolver Ocelot. The graphics are near what MGS2 was, and though the camera was a lil cumbersome at times, it was a minor flaw. The greatest change in this game was the ability to capture & recruit enemies to fight on your side. This is essential in the game, as its much easier to use double agents to move around in the open in many parts rather than having to carefully sneak everywhere. There are soldiers with different abilities and a particular focus that keep the gameplay much more interesting. For example, the Scout skill enables a soldier to sneak at a faster rate, and the Rescuer can carry bodies away faster and medical items have a greater effect when used. All in all, this was an excellent game, and recieved the Editors Choice award from [...]. I think it was well-deserved. A must-buy for fans of the series and the genre.

Its extremely fun, the lack of the a second analog kinda bugs me though thats expected with a psp because if youre used to using a second analog or rations or other items and that item isnt there for ones like MGS2 or 3 it kinda screws with you but its really fun nonetheless.

I ordered this game for my son and he is very pleased with it.This was also our first time ordering through amazon.com and buying a used item,it was an easy and fast order and well worth it.

An OK game for die-hard Metal Gear fans.

this game is not fun at all and i regret buying it. it sucks. its not like MGS for the playstation. save your money.

Great game.

I do enjoy the MGS series quite a bit, and Ive tried numerous occasions to enjoy this game and try to play it through, but it just doesnt do it for me as much as the other games in the series. First, I made the mistake of wasting my money on Portable Ops Plus, thinking it was updated version (Like MGS2 Substance and MGS3 Subsistence) instead its more like VR Missions. Anyway, I finally realized my mistake and purchased this. The graphics look fairly good. The cut scenes, although not animated like the other games, are still halfway decent and watchable. The controls are much different from the other games, and after months of having it, I still cant get used to them. Im constantly finding myself hitting the wrong buttons at critical moments. Also, the enemy spots you far too easily. It is almost impossible to be sneaky. Aiming the gun is another pain. I have to admit I havent gotten very far in the game, and I have tried numerous times, but I just find myself wanting to play the other classic games. I would say its not for everyone.
