    [Highly rated reviewer]

    First review on here so let's go. Having never played the previous versions of this game I wondered what to expect. The PSP isn't exactly renowned for FPS type games. I've got to say I was suprised how good this was. Once I'd changed the control system to one that suited me I attempted all the training missions, which is recommended as it gives you a good feel for how the game plays and helps for those trick situations. Next onto the story mode.

    This follows your classic counter terrorist plot and although I've not finished the game so far it's involving enough not to be boring. The level design is good and basically you'll have some normal guards to despatch and mission objectives to complete before you have an end of level task to complete (kill a boss, kill hoards of enemies etc etc) All of which raise the difficulty level and are a real challenge.

    Overall AI is a bit poor and as long as you move stealthily around your OK. Other times people just run onto the bullets you spew out.

    A good game that will take plenty of time to finish. 4 stars
