Surprisingly metal gear-like, very good game although a little monotonous.
Gameplay-The gameplay involves turn-based action through using cards, the gameplay is very difficult and intricate and will take you around 2 or more hours to get the hang of. I feel that some features such as "Interference" should have been left out since it serves no realy purpose except to confuse you. The gameplay is solid though somewhat slow at times, but there is a way to speed up the enemies turn.
Graphics-Very good especially for an early PSP game, it's a little blocky, but it's somewhere in between the graphics of MGS and MGS2.
Sound-There isn't much sound, decent soundtrack but no voice acting, there isn't really anything right or wrong with the sound.
Value-$40? No, especially since this is a rent-it-first love-it-or-hate-it kind of game. But now that it's $17 it's a must buy for a metal gear fan.
Tilt-Overall this is an above average game, it brings exactly what you'd expect from a turn-based metal gear game, the card system isn't as stupid as you would think, and it provides some solid gameplay. This game should wet your whistle until Portable ops comes out.
