    Peace Walker has to be the biggest game on the PSP yet. In fact, it's possibly the defining PSP game - essential for all PSP gamers. Of course, also essential is a big memory card and a good set of headphones, not earbuds. Read more

    Snake also acquires an offshore facility, Mother Base, to house his burgeoning private army. As if liberating Costa Rica weren't work enough, the day-to-day running of Mother Base also falls to you. As you work your way through levels, rescued prisoners and downed enemies can be recruited and swiftly airlifted off the battlefield with a Fulton recovery balloon to be transported back to the base.

    • High production values, Great soundtrack, Plenty of diverse activities that invite extended play, Intense boss fights.
    • Occasionally fiddly controls, No checkpoints in the long story missions.

    The biggest problem with Peace Walker overall, is that it would be an amazing console title. The controls have been well worked out, but they would have been flawless on a DualShock 3 with a second analog stick for camera control. There is so much stuff packed into the game, with the Extra Ops, Mother Base, Monster Hunter Island and all of the other bonuses that it seems a shame to cripple it with the limited hardware of the PSP.

    • A massive game with heaps to do., Pushes the boundaries of the PSP., Hideo Kojima’s patented ridiculousness remains throughout.
    • A bit too big for a handheld game, Controls take some getting used to., Hideo Kojima’s patented ridiculousness remains throughout.

    Metal Gear Solid and handheld consoles generally don't mix very well. Portable Ops was a brave attempt at bringing the series to a smaller screen, but for many, the last successful miniature Metal Gear adventure came in the form of Ghost Babel on the GameBoy Colour. That was a little over ten years ago. Read more
