i wasn't all too interested about another Metal Gear outing on the PSP, or any Metal Gear game on any console for that matter. i was done with the series after Metal Gear Solid 4 but now that i had spent a good long hour playing the demo i'm actually quite hyped up for this game.

the demo consists of 3 parts:
the first part you'll spend about 7 minutes on the coast learning the controls and moves on your fellow soldiers followed by a very simple get to point A to point B sneaking mission with very few soldiers in the path. here is where you also get to see the majority of cinematic cutscenes in the demo.

the second part is another sneaking mission. there are few more segmented areas with more enemy soldiers patrolling about. the last section is a fortified camp

the third and final part is an all-out battle against a tank. you can co-op with up to 4 players. the tank battle was definitely the best part of the demo.

as long as i don't care too much about the plot and if the game consistently offers a variety of sneaking and balls-out action like the demo offered than i am stoked. the presentation is solid. graphics are the best i've seen yet on the PSP. if it weren't for the pixellation, the texture and lighting look way better than MGS3. the new control scheme i had to get used to especially using the face buttons for the camera control..

overall the game looks and plays like Metal Gear Solid 3.5
