User Rating: 8.8 | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Essentials PSP
Dude Essentials is a really good game! yes the camera isn't the best in the world (IMO I think they should've mapped it to the square button) and it is glitchy and the sound effects aren't the best I've ever heard of. But it's Splinter Cell in your flippin' hands!! think about it guys! you can play while sitting on the commode!

The storyline is also impressive too, it takes place a year after the death of Sarah Fisher (the main character's daughter) and he gets busted by the po-po and brought in for questioning. So like 7 out of 9 missions are mainly flashback missions (don't worry they're all not from the previous Splinter Cell games) and they all work pretty darn well.

As for a sandbox approach wise? the sandbox approach is more on the Pandora Tomorrow side than Chaos Theory's, but hey that's not a bad thing at all! because there's probably alot more ways to complete my objectives than I thought in PT. But yes it has a sandbox approach and makes it very replayable.

All in all it's a great game. Yes it has flaws but what game doesn't? so if you're patient to learn the controls (which you'll pretty much pick up easily in like a few minutes or so) and looking for a good stealth game for your PSP, then this is for you
