After getting a head rush on new screens for Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops, here's more information on the highly-anticipated PSP title from Konami.
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops opens with Big Boss awakening in prison to find his former unit, FOX, has started a bloody revolt in South America. Set in 1970, the game acts as a missing link in the ongoing Metal Gear Solid narrative, as players learn more about returning characters such as Para-Medic, Major Zero and Sigint and also witness Big Boss' greatest tragedy.
This time you can enjoy a groundbreaking online play feature that allows gamers to recruit comrades that includes enemy soldiers and in some cases, depending on a gamer's action on certain situations, rare non-player characters (NPCs). Because each character possess a unique rating based on a sequence of personal attributes, it will give players the flexibility of forming a squadron that will fit the need of each particular situation. But what's more exciting is that based on the unique IP address contained in all wireless hot spots, players can locate and download characters unique to that spot. All a player has to do is locate a wireless access point. No need to log on to the hot spot. Know what that means? Multiplayer battles against opposing users online. Nice.
As Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops is known for its trademark stealth action, the new "White Flag" system to the game's multiplayer modes, leaving players to decide whether to surrender and live to fight again or go gungho and battle to the death and risk permanently losing some of their most valuable comrades.
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops will launch for the PSP system this winter... maybe even sooner?

--companies takingideas from homebrew (the one where wifi spots depending on types were different colors and *****)? probably not, since i'm sure this game's been in development long, but if it is, that's neat.

We didn't make this stuff up. It's from Konami's press release.

i think that the quote,
"But what's more exciting is that based on the unique IP address contained in all wireless hot spots, players can locate and download characters unique to that spot. All a player has to do is locate a wireless access point."
is just saying that the online play is awesome by explaining what happens when you play online. your enemies walking around? you guys call that downloading? pffffft! unless its some type of super compression i've never heard of, or that i'm completely misunderstandin g, i've always thought that playing PSP games online and seeing characters move around were packets containing all the textures and whatnot. streaming the game is what i'm thinking it does.
anyways....Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops, w00ty w00t w00t!!!

I know she disappeared in '68, but there's got to be some way that she can be in the story. Either way, the game will kick more ass than any other PSP game to date.
