Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops – Metal Gear series
When talking about Metal Gear, it’s easy to see the discussion revolve around the mainline entries – and that’s totally understandable since they are the blockbusters that coalesce to form the canon storyline of the series. But that doesn’t really help the PSP exclusive Portable Ops case, which is really disappointing because it definitely deserves the same praise that its bigger brothers get.
Translating a complex stealth experience like Metal Gear into a handheld format is a tough task, but one that Portable Ops accomplishes with flying colors. There’s little to no compromise in terms of boss fights which are as riveting as ever, the stealth which is as fun as ever, and the story which of course, remains as convoluted as ever. For its time, it was stellar stealth experience for a handheld game.
