Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror - Sony PSP (Jewel case)

This game is the kind of game that you will remember playing 10 years from now. This game is belongs in the videogame hall of fame. It was extremely well done and the developers, designers, etc deserves a great deal of praise. I play this on the train to work and it makes a boring trip pass by. This is my favorite PSP game. SOCOM is a great game, but Syphon Filter makes that game seem boring by comparison.

Boring game but thats from lack of intrest in it its a stealth action game that gets boring quick

When Sony decided to go into the handheld gaming market, I think they wanted to appeal to the same demographic as their big brother console. And that means attracting a more mature audience. Nintendo tends to capture the family market, which isnt a bad thing. I say this because if theres any game that truly defines and epitomizes what the PSP is all about, then Syphon Filter Dark Mirror is that game. This game represents all that the PSP is capable of. It is to bad that other developers have not pushed their resources for their games to be this good in so many ways. Everything from graphics, controls, to the all-important fun factor is on point with this title. The storyline is engaging, the levels are beautifully rendered, and the missions are diverse. You really do feel like the character youre controlling in the game, thats how good it is. I have read complaints about the boss characters not being so over-the-top like in other games. That doesnt matter so much to me, because as you go up against them, it still requires skill, patience, trial, and error to beat them. Thats the challenge and the fun of any video game. If anyone gets a Sony PSP, then this is the first game they should buy.

I am happy that i can play the game. One of my favorite series on the PlayStation. UMD case came separated? but it can still play, so i can make it work.

I really enjoyed playing this game. It is similar in game play and style to splinter cell but not nearly as complex which is good for the PSP. Story is a little cheesy but whatever, I was stuck at my aunts house with no laptop and no tv for a few days so this was an excellent way to pass the time and I was so hooked I finished it in 2 days.

...well after beating Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max on my PSP numerous times I got tired of my PSP in general and stopped playing it for a while. One day I was at the store and saw this game, so I decided to pick it up, after all I decided it could not be as bad as the piece of crapp Rengoku or Dead To Rights for the PSP. Let me just say this: this game impressed the heck out of me. It has a great story, great controls (you can adjust them), and various difficulty settings. After having started playing it I could not stop so for a week I played it non-stop until I beat it. Another great thing is that as you beat the game and find secret evidence you unlock new weapons, which you can later use if you replay a mission. There are also a bunch of bonus missions which are fun. I hear the multiplayer is good too, but I couldnt tell you since Ive only played single player. This game will definetely make a worthy addition to your PSP library.

Syphon Filter Dark Mirror is the best PSP game!! Its far better than the PS2 game Omega Strain. The controls are very easy and the weapons rock! The story is great! I would have to give this game 100.0

Wow, I thought GTA was good, I thought battle front was good, I even thought Socom was good,but this game kills them all. If you like a good shooter, mixed with quick thinking and smart tactics with loads of actiong, this is the game for you. Now some of you know that some games that were on home video counsels are crying for another analog stick, not this one. They made it simple, and perfect, I myself, have only done 2 missions and all the tranings (to beat the record of course), and I know the controls off the top of my head. If youre noy sure what game to get, like stuck on splinter cell, and this, you should definitely buy this. Because splinter cell NEEDS a second analog stick, you could tell the creaters had a huge struggle trying to put splinter cell on a portable coucel. And you may be wondering if the graphics are any good? There amazing, literally ps2 graghics and the best graphics on the psp system. I know this because you must update your psp to 2.6 before you play, and this is the highest the psp has seen. The closest was king kong (which was too short of a game so dont buy it) with a 2.5 update. And gta,bf,socom, are all 2.0 updates. Meaning if you thought the graghics on gta were good, imagine what 6 extra points will do. Overall, I find the game perfect and well thought out. The company definitely worked away at it to get it just right. And to give you an idea of how great the game is, in training, you dont actually kill people like in spiderman 2, they give you a paintball gum.A paintball gun! Thats going the extra step right there. Oh, and if your afraid of the game not having any cool stealth kills, there are some, and yes, of course, theres the knife kill. SO I hope you liked my review, but now, get off your ass and make 40 bucks as fast as you can and buy this game, GO RIGHT NOW! Stop reading reviews to see if its good, it is. SO GO ! P.S. If you want some movies and/or screenshot of the game go to psp.ign.com

I was worried when they started bringing shooters out on the PSP. Ive grown accustomed to the dual analog sticks on the PS2 and Xbox. And was worried how I would be able to pull off the move and shoot. After about a 30 minute learning period with Syphon Filter, I was already smashing the time records in training mode. Which was definitly another benefit to the game. There are four training missions you can choose to play to get accustomed to the game. They range from basic movement to a sniper mission. The controls will take some getting used to since you use the analog stick for movement and the x, circle, square and triangle buttons to look in different directions. But once you get used to them youll be running and gunning with the best of them. On easy mode the game took me approximatly 12 hrs to beat. However, I take my time trying to acheive every side mission. The average gamer will get a good 8-10 hrs out of the game. You also have the option to replay any level that you have already beat to attempt to get more steath, environmental, dart, or headshot kills. When such goals are acheived you can unlock alternate levels and weapons that you can used in the mission mode. I have about 22 hrs total in the game and I still have not unlocked everything. So there is some replayability in the game. Unlike Daxter for the PSP, I played it through and even though it was a great game I had no desire to pick it back up. Conclusion Syphon Filter is a great action shooter game. It combines the usual elements you expect and even some steath and spy maneuvers. In fact several levels are signifigantly easier if you take your time to use steath to eliminate your enemies. You can always go in guns blazing but that does not always work out. Again there is about a 30 minute learning curve. But it is fairly easy to get accustomed to the controls and go about your merry way stabbing and shooting. The only real complaint I have about the game is several times I performed a steath kill, it would not register on the player stats page and could not reach the goal for a level. Which was pretty annoying at time since I was so close to unlocking another weapon. Other than that its a great game.

This game is great, but I would strongly recommend that you save your money and get the other one, logans shadow
