Gabe Logan, the renowned Precision Strike Operative from Syphon Filter is back and working for a black ops US agency that doesn't officially exist – even to the President! After being listed as M.I.A after his previous mission, Gabe returns for another deadly surgical strike, but this time on the PSP (PlayStation Portable).

Syphon Filter Dark Mirror, due for release in the summer 2006, has no rules and no chain of command. Logan's job is to infiltrate, recon and execute decisively - on his mission to retrieve Dark Mirror...a weapon which threatens the lives of all those on the planet...

Syphonfilterdarkmirror-2

Syphon Filter Dark Mirror is tailor made for PSP, which allowed the developers to create exclusive and exciting gameplay linked to each of Logan's main objectives. To 'Infiltrate' locations around the globe, Gabe has acquired a new rifle that uses the latest darts technology, and now has access to a range of vision enhancement goggles. There is enhanced AI with new behaviours and awareness states, such as idle, curious and alarmed! Once in Logan has to carry out life or death decisions thanks to precision aiming and new lethal melee attacks with hands and knife.

Syphonfilterdarkmirror-3

Syphon Filter Dark Mirror also features a host of other new additions to make gameplay more enjoyable and realistic; the graphics engine has been completely overhauled to take advantage of the PSP's full visual capacity; a dynamic difficulty structure has been implemented to prevent frustration creeping in; plus there is a bonus mission for fans of the franchise which clarifies the ending of the previous episode - Omega Strain.

Syphonfilterdarkmirror-4

The game includes 23 single player missions and five multi-purpose online maps. You have the ability to create your own agent, and the highest ranking players can play as Gabe or as the enemy Commander and have access to unique weapons.

Syphonfilterdarkmirror-5

Syphon Filter Dark Mirror allows you to experience the rush of being on the front-line in the war against global terrorism. Keep your senses alert because one minute you are engaging in undercover recon and the next you're blasting your way through a guarded gate or crashing through a skylight on a mission to save the world.

Im really excited about this game because I feel it is the first of its genre to be on the PSP. Action/Shooting/Level Based. Also, its going to be a game thats fun and intriguing to play till the end. There have been very few of those on the PSP.

I'm particapating in the BETA for this game as we speak. THIS GAME WILL NOT DISAPOINT. Freakin the best game EVAR. I get to test the Online play(infrastruc ture mode) so sweet 1-8 players. Great controls great gameplay. I recommend this game over Socom:FTB.

I am a beta tester too. The controls are hard to get used to and are similiar to Coded Arms. Even if you get the controls down, it's hard to manuver through tight spaces in this game. That is the major drawback to the game, and I hope they will have it fixed by the time the game is released. In terms of fun, I have to recommend FTB over DM..

if the controls for this are even slightly similar to coded arms as Silentxf0b says, im afraid anyone who is excited about this game will be severly disapointed... i had coded arms for a total of 3 hours (my sister didnt know better and bought it for my birthday back in nov...) i sold it back and bought FTB... if what Silentxf0b says is true, then the production team wasted hundreds of precious hours on the grafix... im gonna pray for us all in the hopes they wake up and change the controls...
