Akiba...oh this character brings comic relief! :)

I've played the first Metal Gear and two for the PSP,I didn't know what to expect from this one.But I was happily surprised.

The graphics,the storyline,though some scenes could have been left out.Seems like it made the game drag....but this is one heck of a shooter.

I don't care much for "stealth" like Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell,but with Snake I dont mind because when an alert is sounded,there is no way you can fire fight your way out.You have to worry about the two groups shooting you,thinking your with the other ones.

I've been playing this game for about five hours now,and I'm up to the part where Meryl and her team depart from Snake.

The controls are easy to master,the shooting is not too sensitive.

But so far I think game of the year will be a tie between Snake and Niko of Grand Theft Auto.
