IGN Reviews Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror |
Ó
Oh man, it looks like March is going to be a very bad month for PSP owner's wallets! First Daxter scores a 9.0, and now IGN gives Sony Bend developed Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror a score of 9.3! Start dancing in the streets folks, the PSP has just found its killer app, at least according to IGN:"It's a rare thing when a game actually defines a system. Not an easy thing to do in any case, but once in a great while a title comes out that sums up the perks and potential of a particular game system. Halo defined the Xbox, for instance, while Final Fantasy X did the same for PS2. Now, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror has done the same exact thing with the Sony PSP.
As for the game itself, Sony Bend has crafted the game to beat on the PSP. For starters, it controls remarkably well for such a complex game. Even with the impressive number of combat techniques and maneuvers at your disposal, it's incredibly simple to come to grips with everything. Instead of spending time struggling with different control schemes in hopes of finding the "right" one, most will acclimate to the default setting in less than ten minutes - it's that intuitive.
Dark Mirror has one of, if not the most robust multiplayer package of any PSP title. It makes use of the system's Ad-Hoc (local), infrastructure (online) and game sharing capabilities. With both Ad-Hoc and infrastructure, you can jump into eight-player Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Objective and Rogue Agent modes."
So there you have it boys and girls, if you haven't already pre-ordered a copy do it now and support developers who are actually putting time and effort into creating fully featured, robust PSP games.

yeah what about pursuit force that just came out, and Splinter cell. My banks looking pretty emty by the end of the month. great games though. I just love playing em. Legally on a umd. Thats the benifit of werking all the time. PSP UMD's not iso for me!!!
that review makes it sound so great. Can't wait to get my hands on it
This game just sounds freaking awesome. But, hmm, i'm going to wait until more reviews are out.
I played the PSP beta and 90% of the people who played were extremely impressed. This game scored higher than socom! Eat that socom fanatics. I was right when I said Syphon Filter: DrakMirror is better than Socom. BUY IT WHEN IT'S RELEASED.
