Take on the role of Big Boss once again in this portable MGS game for the PSP.
Konami recently gave us a chance to not only sit down and play the next Metal Gear Solid game (called Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker) for the PSP, but it also took some time to explain some of the new controls adapted for the game, as well as some of the story elements and the general setup. The first thing we see upon starting the demo is the mission selector screen, which, as you might suspect, lets you select missions...

One step deeper into Hell, Dante takes on the powers of lust in our latest look at this adventure game.
Let’s get this out of the way now: There are breasts in Dante’s Inferno. Big, naked breasts. Big, naked breasts attached to Cleopatra, the notorious Egyptian queen who serves as one of the game’s epic bosses. Big, naked breasts with tongues for nipples. Big, naked breasts that spew babies with swords for hands. Wait, what?
It’s the Lust level of Hell, as seen through...

Posted by Game Spot on Sep 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment
This clumsy and unsatisfying sequel is a major step backward.
The Good
Large cast of great characters.
The Bad
No co-op play of any kind
Stuttering frame rate and clunky animations

Army of Two: The 40th Day Hands-On
Posted by Game Spot on Sep 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Salem and Rios are taking their fight to the PSP, but it’s quite a different battle from what you’ll find on consoles.
The original Army of Two was unique in the way the game was built entirely around co-op teamwork, rather than having that form of multiplayer added as an afterthought and tacked on to a single-player storyline. The sequel, Army of Two: The 40th Day, looks ready to take that formula and improve upon it with lessons learned from the first game. But what about the PSP...

Petz Dogz Family Hands-On
Posted by Game Spot on Sep 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment
We spoil this virtual Chihuahua just for a moment in Ubisoft’s upcoming Petz game for the PlayStation Portable.
Puppies are undeniably cute, but they can also do not-so-cute things that can make having a real one a chore. Not to mention, depending on your dog’s personality, it may not always like being dressed up in a tutu or enjoy strutting around in a cape. That’s where games like Petz Dogz Family come in, where you can take care of your own adorable canine without thinking...

Posted by Game Spot on Sep 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Sony’s venerable action-platforming duo are back and ready to take on the PSP.
The Jak and Daxter series got its start as a fairly straightforward action platformer game that focused on a pair of mascots jumping all over a bright, shimmery island world. As the years went on, the series grew and added more variety to the gameplay with lots of weapons and lots of vehicles. Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier for the PSP is the latest game in the franchise, and though it doesn’t quite...
