Last time I counted, there were about a million games out for the PSP. A large percentage of the games are horrible, a fair amount are mediocre, there are some really fun games, and then there are some awesome games.
Meggie’s brother, Danny, and I like to discuss video games, often recommending games for various consoles to each other. A few months ago, Danny let me play Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. I played it for a few minutes, and decided it would be a good game to try out. When I read about it, the reviews are all very positive. So, I decided to get it. For some reason, I couldn’t find it anywhere. It must be really good or invisible, I thought.
I finally got a copy of it on Friday night. I can safely say it is a PSP classic. I have only awarded that title to Loco Roco and God of War: Chains of Olympus. Yes, I am starting my own personal video game awards. I’m that important.
Here is my rating of the game:
Graphics: A-
Story: A
Gameplay: A
The storyline is amazing. It is exceptionally original. It takes a few hours to figure out the complexity of the game, but when you finally do, the payoff is worth it. Most of the time, I trade my games in when I am done playing. I plan to keep this one.
