Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror - Sony PSP (Jewel case)

I never got my game because the seller made a postal error so the post office sent it back, and Amazon had to give me a full refund because for some reason the post office had to send it back and I would like to know why......

Boring game but thats from lack of intrest in it its a stealth action game that gets boring quick

this game was fun once I mastered the controls. I dont recommend the training level (its boring and timed), its a lot easier just to go into a mission and learn the controls by trial and error. As with all shooter games for the PSP the controls are awkward and take some time to get used to. There is plenty of ammunition and weaponry so that is never a problem. The game is interesting and isnt very hard once you get down the basics. I recommend this game for those who like shooters, just be patient with it.

excellent packaging and prompt delivery, very good, my son likes

Ive read reviews here that say its a first person shooter. Its not, it is a third person shooter I dont know where they got that idea. The cover system works very well. There are a nice array of weapons, although some of them are just the same gun with a different look. The darts are a nice feature too. Single player is surprisingly lengthy. Once you beat it youll want to go back and use the mission select to try and meet certain objectives such as killing a certain amount of guys using stealth, knife, head shots, dart, and environmental kills to unlock new weapons and equipment. however it can be very difficult. the controls work well for general aiming and shooting, HOWEVER once you need to zoom in to take out an enemy or make a precise head shot, controls are troublesome. And it does take a while to fully get used to the controls. overall, one of the best psp games ever. Hopefully the sequel will be tweaked to fix some of dark mirrors flaws. (yes there is going to be a sequel)

Dark Mirror is flat out amazing. If you have a PSP and you dont have this you are missing out. Syphon Filter was my favorite game for the original Playstation and there are many who feel as strong about that game. Syphon Filter 2 and 3 came out later for that system and they were also both great games. Next came Syphon Filter The Omega Strain (for the Playstation 2) which had been originally designed as a multiplayer online game only. Towards the end of the development of the game it was decided to include the normal single player experience which was good but not as fun as the first 3 Syphon Filter games. I never really got into the online multiplayer features but I did try it a few times and that was where Omega Strain was at its best. The online servers for that game are no longer running. So now lets flash forward to more recent times. Dark Mirror continued the Syphon Filter franchise (on the Playstation Portable) and made it even better. The single player missions are excellent and the multiplayer features are also top notch. I havent played the next installment (Syphon Filter Logans Shadow - also for the PSP) but I own it. What I look forward to most is seeing Syphon Filter in high definition (on the PS3). My only complaint about this game was that there is some strong language which was not necessary for the experience. This is my opinion and it is an issue in many games today. Overall, I would pick this as my favorite PSP game and one of my favorites of all time.

Wow, I thought GTA was good, I thought battle front was good, I even thought Socom was good,but this game kills them all. If you like a good shooter, mixed with quick thinking and smart tactics with loads of actiong, this is the game for you. Now some of you know that some games that were on home video counsels are crying for another analog stick, not this one. They made it simple, and perfect, I myself, have only done 2 missions and all the tranings (to beat the record of course), and I know the controls off the top of my head. If youre noy sure what game to get, like stuck on splinter cell, and this, you should definitely buy this. Because splinter cell NEEDS a second analog stick, you could tell the creaters had a huge struggle trying to put splinter cell on a portable coucel. And you may be wondering if the graphics are any good? There amazing, literally ps2 graghics and the best graphics on the psp system. I know this because you must update your psp to 2.6 before you play, and this is the highest the psp has seen. The closest was king kong (which was too short of a game so dont buy it) with a 2.5 update. And gta,bf,socom, are all 2.0 updates. Meaning if you thought the graghics on gta were good, imagine what 6 extra points will do. Overall, I find the game perfect and well thought out. The company definitely worked away at it to get it just right. And to give you an idea of how great the game is, in training, you dont actually kill people like in spiderman 2, they give you a paintball gum.A paintball gun! Thats going the extra step right there. Oh, and if your afraid of the game not having any cool stealth kills, there are some, and yes, of course, theres the knife kill. SO I hope you liked my review, but now, get off your ass and make 40 bucks as fast as you can and buy this game, GO RIGHT NOW! Stop reading reviews to see if its good, it is. SO GO ! P.S. If you want some movies and/or screenshot of the game go to psp.ign.com

If you own a PSP but not this game, buy this game. Especially at the price its being offered now. I am not good at dual-stick shooters, and this is a variation on the theme using the right X,O,[],^ buttons to look/aim. It took me a while to get used to this, but the tutorial missions and campaign mode ramp up the difficulty very well, throwing a little at a time. I died often during the boss battles of the first couple missions, but playing them again after completing the entire campaign, I can easily go through without dying on hard mode. Ive gotten used to the shooting, the gadgets, and some techniques for clearing a room. This is my first Syphon Filter game, so Gabe Logan is a new character to me, and once I got used to the gruff Im Batman voice, I found the voice acting pretty good, lots of FMV to tell the story. Some of the movies are a little long, but not punishingly so like MGS:PW. The campaign is around 30 missions, each taking me 7-20 minutes to complete, a very good pace to keep the action and the story moving. Now that Im done, Im replaying the missions trying to improve my Career Rating. When you progress through your rating, you unlock new weapons, which are nice, but I may not use them, I just like the act of trying the same mission using different weapons/techniques. For example, try the mission killing the enemies with only a knife, or by only using headshots, or using the environment. Replaying the missions this way is a blast (literally, sometimes) and Ill probably log twice as much time doing this as I did during the story. The audio is great, when playing with headphones, you can hear baddies coming in through the squeaky door, then walking around the corner. The soundtrack is appropriate with excellent action cues. Its too bad you hear the UMD spooling up before the song plays though, it spoils a bit of the suspense. All in all, I knew this game was highly-rated before I bought it, but wasnt sure if I could overcome the controls. I shouldnt be surprised that I liked it so much, but I am. Buy it now!

Just as amazing as the rest of the series

Does not work
