Download the demo, pass the training, and get ready for some new rules in the MGS franchise.

I think the control scheme for Peace Walker is a bit funky but at least they give you the option to control it as either the old style MGS Portable Ops or MGS4 style FPS action like.

I chose the MGS4 FPS Style and it is hard to get used to.

The PSP really needs that second analogue stick!

Anyway I aced through the demo but let me tell you about some of the "new rules."

No more crawling! Thats right! If you lie down you can not make any moves which includes firing a gun. (It sucks! So no more vent crawling...)

The auto aim is still a little bit glitchy! Sometimes the hit detection messes up and none of your bullets hit their targets.

Soliton Radar is also a bit glitchy, but at different times you have a limited amount of time to use it before the battery needs recharging! And sometimes it is only available for 10 seconds....

The AI seems like everyone is on molasses... I guess it is due to the fact that the control scheme is so.... hard to get used to....

Graphics are perfect for a PSP game. (By the way turn off the "wide color" scheme on PSP Go's. Saves battery life and you won't get very bad screen glare. Just leave it off.)

And finally the story... It makes you feel guilty if you don't use your tranquilizer guns.

The boss in the demo IS FLIPPIN HARD, however you can exploit a glitch if it is done right. But it will only remind you of MGS1 for the PS1.... Only there aren't any lasers or claymores before the fight....

This game makes me want to get a PSP... wish there was any other way to play it.

CQC just annihilates.

The demo is pretty fun.

Thank

I've played it, I find it a lot easier to use in the MGS4 play style, because the auto camera pisses me off in the MGSPO style. I think it plays much better than Portable ops, which was a great game in it's own right, but this one looks to be even better.

Sorry for speaking in the way they do in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.

And yes they do speak like this in Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker.

At least for the training bit.

Get a PSP.

Play the demo.

See for yourself.

[Dirge]

I can't play the demo because my PSP has custom firmware ;_;

But when the ISO is out..........

BOOO! (heh just kidding... I have 2 PSP's again now... One is CF'd one is my PSP Go...) Hopefully you will be able to play it unless Konami tries to pull a Zipper Interactive.

Pirates will always find a way around it.

At first you weren't able to play pirated PSP games without a UMD in the drive, but then the pirates changed that. They "tricked" the PSP into thinking there was a UMD in the drive. Whatever Konami does, itll be a matter of time before I download it.

I tend to type like this too. But like him I finish a sentence or 2 before I break away. You didn't do that in your example!

[The_Con-Sept]

Have you seen this yet? KOJIMA SAN! NICE WORK! I HOPE THIS IS ACTUALLY IN THE GAME!

That's pretty funny... sigh I wish I kept up with this series. Stopped at part 3.

[raidenx89]

So I'm not cool enough for a PSP , I'm an xbox guy. I had a PSP but I bricked it and sold it to some guy for 100$ because I was to lazy to un brick it. But how bout that Metal Gear Rising teaser video you can download, Idk if it is for PS3 but you can d/l it on the marketplace (L!ve). I would be happy if they brought MGS to xbox, not just the substance and susistance or w.e like last time, but the orginal game, i would also be kinda upset if they took it away from playstation since you know, besides nintendo thats where metal gear SOLID started.

But the teaser doesnt tell you anything about the game, hence being a teaser? It looks like the whole game might be about Raiden after or before the events of MGS4?? idk sorry to change topic i just felt left out:P

[The_Con-Sept]

Raiden:

The only remake for MGS is MGS Twin Snakes for the Gamecube and I don't think it is going to be redone on any new console.

And for me. MGS Rising isn't even a Hideo Kojima Game. It is being made by his team while he works on Peace Walker. Raiden is still stupid and I don't think I will ever play that game.

[bloodvayne]

this game is badass

[Dirge]

this game is badass

Yeah it is!

[retrovirus]

damn this game is awesome.
I almost missed my stop on the subway when fighting the pupa

[bloodvayne]

only thing I don't like is some of the boss fights take FOR FUCKING EVER
especially if you try for S rank

They're alright the first time, but in the extra missions where you fight stronger bosses that are similar to the others it becomes tedious
