Why do people think GTA:Liberty City Stories is?,Rockstar did a great job with it and it is remincent of its PS2 counterparts,but GTA has turned from a simply FUN series to the most over-rated thing to be put onto game-store shelves,thats why I no longer like GTA anymore,I honestly prefer Mercenaries:Playground Of Destruction to GTA:San Andreas.

Anyways this gem,Syphon Filter:Dark Mirror is nothing short of subperb,in both single player and online,its SOLID.

It being a stealth-action game puts the crad-based Metal Gear Ac!d games and Splinter Cell:Essnetials to shame,although not as heavily based on stealth as they are.

There is a new Metal Gear game coming to PSP winter 2006,its called “Metal Gear Solid:Portable Ops” which will be the first true Metal Gear game on PSP,you play as Big Boss or Naked Snake,the guy you play in Metal Gear Solid 3 on the PS2(which is a GOLD game),six years after his mission:Op:SNAKE EATER where his former unit FOX has revolted against the government,he must stop him,but this time he can`t go alone so he must recruit people in to his own squad of mercenries to fight against FOX.

People say MPO(Metal Gear Solid:Portable Ops) will be better than SF:DM,and i personally think so too,but I`ll have to wait and see.

MPO has also be announced to be recieving several sequels,so my PSP is about to get even more hotter than it is now.

lol =)

I got this because somebody on Gamespot said that it 'defined the PSP platform'. Well, it's a pretty good game anyway, and probably the best shooter for the PSP.

The good :
It is pretty long and has beautiful cutscenes and fantastic sound. The levels get better as you play. Some of the first levels were really small and cheezy. Towards the end, there are some pretty neat things.

The game physics are really nice (you can shoot someone in the knee with a 357 and they will fall on their face, then get up and limp, explosions cause rag doll effects etc).

The sniper rifle is a lot of fun once you get it down. Its pretty fun to pick off the bad guys using it.

The not so good :
The bosses in this game are LAME! Regular guys in bulletproof suits of some kind except for one tank. When you throw a grenade
(which you need for the last few bosses), the whole PSP grinds to a halt so you can't switch easily to a gun in time to shoot the boss when his suit is powered down. (I guess it is calculating the grenades effects and can't hear the buttons).

A lot of levels are dark so its hard to see in normal lighting.

There usually are no more than 2 or three enemies on the screen at once. Probably not enough horsepower for more. Good bosses would have made up for that. Even Sonic on the Genesis had enough horsepower for a challenging boss every level. Rating: 3 / 5

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……
