Sometime in the next few months you’re likely to see a curious looking fellow wandering aimlessly down a city street, holding a PSP up in the air as he furiously slaps buttons. Don’t worry; he’s just playing Portable Ops. The ability to gather new troops for your army in this latest Metal Gear game by tapping into local Wi-Fi hotspots is brilliant. Thankfully, the game behind the gimmick is also more than capable of wearing the legendary moniker with pride. It... Read more

PSP owners are a hardy bunch. They know how to find uses for their $250 portable PlayStation systems when it isn't being used for games. Of course, they wouldn't have to find such alternative functions if the system were regularly receiving quality game releases; unfortunately, though, the sad reality is that good games on the PSP have been few and far between.

Put simply, in a back-of-the-box kind of way, Portable Ops is one of the best Metal Gear games yet. The PSP is worth owning again, especially if you have a soft spot for one of gaming's most applauded series. Read more

Snake is back and smaller than ever. But whatever this game lacks in (physical) size it more than makes up for in action. The MGS series translates incredibly well to the portable PSP with a game specifically designed for the system. The developers recognized the need for a great looking game that can be played on the go. The missions are plentiful but they are short and to the point. It can take you a few days of continuous play just to complete the main single-player... Read more

Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops
Reviewer: swapgame27 May 2007Snake's back and returning into his old stealthy ways. Snake's first PSP outing follows the events of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and provides a missing link in the ongoing Metal Gear mythos. The year is 1970 and follows the dubiously-named Naked Snake as he sets up Foxhound. His aim? Take down the treacherous Fox unit which has started a nasty revolt in South America. Players will learn more about characters such as Para-Medic, Major Zero and Sigint, as well as... Read more

Huh?M-Metal Gear?!
Reviewer: rickyraws, GamePro.com06 October 2008- Overall 10
When Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops was announced to be brought to the ever deviant hand held that is the PSP, many fans were worried about how it would look and play. There was more emphasis on how it would play, because when most console games are scaled down to PSP size, control is usually the first component in question. Don't fret here, because as you can see from the score that I gave this game, it's all good. The game is set a few years after Metal Gear Solid:... Read more
