Summary

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is as ambitious PSP game, and a worthy follow-up to previous entries. Snake is back, and with Hideo Kojima exploiting our political apprehension and love for espionage thrillers, Peace Walker easily offers one of the best experiences on Sony's handheld.

We like

  • Terrific presentation, both visually and sonically
  • A long and involved storyline
  • Epic missions that warrant a friend's help

We dislike

  • Finicky controls at time
  • Pesky and slow camera
