Snake gets real on your PSP on Dec. 5 photo

Konami has sent word that the next chapter in their cash cow Metal Gear will be coming to PSP users on Dec. 5. Featuring the ability to go online and set up squads and other fancy stuff, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops is an ambitious undertaking for Konami and the PSP and by all means should serve as somewhat of a life preserver for the sinking system.

Check out the sickening pitch:

A full-blown action game for the PSP, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops not only features a top-notch story and impeccable single-player gameplay, but it also delivers groundbreaking multi-player online play that will let gamers recruit their own comrades to create a unique fighting force. 

So, there you have it. Prepare to dust off the ol' PSP.

Really looking out for MGS4. For this one, I feel that Kojima Productions could have used there time and energy on something else than Metal gear, I think that something completely new would be equal exciting if not more. Besides didn't Hideo say that the PSP would never see a real Metal Gear because the PSP's controls aren't simply good enough for a game like that.

Sigh...

I'd still pay $50 for Snake Eater on my 360.

Fana7ic: not that the ps2 would have any hardware antialiasing - think the psp screens look quite sweet and think the controls could work as well, the controls of syphon filter worked quite fine - sounds fun to have a "real" snake in my pockets finally.

Losing your peeps permanently when they die online is just flat out EVIL!

I'll probably check this game out whenever I finally get around to picking up a PSP. Likes me some MGS.
