More brilliant action from Snake

User Rating: 8.6 | Metal Gear Acid 2 PSP
Metal gear Acid 2 isn't greatly different from the orignal version. There has been a slight change to the interface and graphics meaning they are slightly brighter and bolder, but expect the same cartoon artwork dialogue sessions, with no movies or much animation to watch. Maybe this is too save space to make the game longer. Anyway the artwork is great, but I grave some spectacular movies to watch and watch the characters move when talking not just a still image. Sometimes the camera again can mess up leaving an obscure image to stare at for a few seconds.

Which moves us onto the sound, in general gameplay the sound is spot on, becoming more intense in battles with realistic effects. The lack of speech from characters (there is none) is a negative point which means a lot of reading.

The gameplay is great, there are more cards to use, more items to collect and this time you seem to be encoutering a boss is nearly every room which is great, not much retracking which is so boring when you relay on movement cards to do so.

There is the typical Metal Gear humour, and a great storyline, which this time, is actually easy enough to understand and comprehend, with lots of twists along the way.

I wouldn't say the game is mega long, it took me 15 hours to complete the main game or normal mode. Of course, addicts can replay to collect cards and fight bosses again.

To conclude, Acid 2 is great if you except it for what it is, the card game, but don't expect any of the free roaming features to be included because they arn't.

Highly enjoyable.
