So, I just got it on Friday. I'll say this: it is badasstacular. (its like spectacular, only more badass) As you may or may not have heard, it is the sequel too Snake Eater (which is awesome as well). It plays like Subsistance, due to the camera placed behind you, and actually has a pretty decent control scheme. (it pretty much mimics the MGS games on the PS1 and PS2) You also have the ability of capturing enemy soldiers and persuading them to come onto your side. It's pretty neat.

The story is pretty great as well. Not as good as previous titles, but still pretty damn good. The cutscenes are pretty unique, done in a comic book-like style. Haven't tried the online version yet, bet it's great though.

There are some negatives. Like for instance, the controls tend to be a bit iffy and the camera acts up sometimes too. But it's not much of a big deal, it rarely happens.

So yeah. Kind of a review to start a topic of this game. Thoughts on the subject?

This is like, the third thread I've seen this year for this game.

Yeah, I got it back in December. It is definately one of the coolest handheld games I've ever played.

And "Calling to the Night" is a great song.

Say what? I looked through the forums and only saw a thread about how Big Boss didn't betray his country or something.

Hrm... well, normally I would lock a thread like this and redirect you to the original, but what the Hell, I'll just leave this one up. Be more careful in the future, though
