Product Description
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops boasts ground-breaking online play that lets gamers recruit comrades to form a unique fighting force. The game follows the events of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, as Naked Snake establishes FOXHOUND in an attempt to hunt down the treacherous FOX unit, which has started a bloody revolt in South America. Set in 1970, the game will be the missing link in the ongoing Metal Gear saga, as players will learn more about returning characters such as Para-Medic, Major Zero and Sigint and also witness Naked Snake's greatest tragedy -- a loss that sets into motion the events of later games in the Metal Gear Solid timeline. Full voiceovers for cinematics, performed by returning cast from MGS3 - Snake Eater

 All the Metal Gear Greatness in the palm of your hand!!! November 6, 2008
MGS Portable Ops is the sequal to Metal Gear Solid 3 and is a must own for people who are looking to play MGS4!!
 Portable Kidnapping Game October 27, 2008
The game is pretty much a must-have if you want to play through all of the "canon" story of Metal Gear Solid. It fleshes out Big Boss' character as well as a few others.
Control-wise, I must say it definitely falls short of Metal Gear Solid 3 and 4 due to the limitations of the PSP (no right analog and only two shoulder buttons). It is a bit awkward controlling the camera no matter how you customize the controls, but you get used to it over time.
The overall gameplay is pretty addicting, thanks in no small part to recruiting. That is what I spend most of my game-time doing. The funny thing about recruiting is that it essentially is kidnapping. You knock out an enemy soldier and drag him to your creepy truck.
As you might have guessed (or probably know from elsewhere) in Portable Ops, you control more than just Snake--you get to play as any one of your recruits, except for the guy who is perpetually in the truck. This includes the generic-looking masked soldiers, mechanics, and doctors/scientists as well as the handful of unique story-related characters and secret characters.
Fending off the enemy with firearms feels kind of clunky, but this is because I generally do not use my any guns aside from tranquilizers. My play style involves sneaking around and using CQC (close quarters combat) to knock out the enemy and then recruit them (yes, I recruit every enemy on each map almost all the time).
The game's story is fairly engrossing, especially if you have played the previous games (particularly, MGS3).
Overall, the game is fun and addicting. Controls are pretty good. Gameplay is fun thanks to recruitment and the joy of knocking soldiers out before they know what hit them. And the story is worth your time, especially if you want to get the full Metal Gear Solid experience.
So Far A Pretty Fun Game For PsP October 5, 2008
Well I bought the game close to a month ago and so far haven't beaten it. Its not that its not fun because it is, its just hard. If you are thinking of buying this game do it. Its a lot of fun, however you should try to get a strategy guide for it.
Fun game... September 30, 2008
The game is fairly different from recent MGS titles on the Playstation in that it involves more skill and strategy. At first it's a bit woozy, but once you get the hang of it, it's really quite fun.
I'm a fan, and this game keeps me still be a fan. September 5, 2008
What I don't like about this game so much is that you have to recruit soldiers before you start really playing the game. After that, get ready for some actions, and the good story. Don't get the Metal Gear Portable Plus, get this one first. With the Plus you will miss the whole story and much more. If you like this game, try Syphon Filter too (you won't have to recruit to start playing the real game).
