PSP titles of popular franchises often tend to be reduced and more simplistic versions of the mainline games but this served more as an evolution for the series that would eventually culminate in MGSV. This is a drastic improvement over the already ambitious and underrated Portable Ops and one of best games on the system. It looks great, plays way better and even with the superior PS3-port holds up well on the original hardware. What a blast!
Of course, this being a Kojima game, there is some major bs. The button mashing is almost transcendent in its ridiculousness, and I hate it when a game forces you to fulfill lengthy requirements in order to see the proper ending. The entire last chapter is just a waste of time and a lame joke. And don't get me started on the whole Paz situation.
