Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker review - 91% in PSM3
Wednesday 2-Jun-2010 10:36 AM CVG sister mag highly impressed with Kojima's new PSP title
The mag says that the game is 'the stealth action game you came to the party to play - but within a mission or two it opens up like no Metal Gear before it'.
PSM3 reserves its highest applause for Peace Walker's ability to 'take the best bits from every Metal Gear Solid game - the recruitment tricks... from Portable Ops, the camouflage and multi-player from MGS3: Snake Eater, the stripped-down controls from Metal Gear Solid 4 and the bonus missions... from VR Missions'.
It continues that Peace Walker is 'a masterclass in pushing the PSP further than it ever wanted to go and sucking the battery dry at a frightening rate'.
However, the mag says some of the game's boss fights are its 'weakest moments' - 'gruelling wars of attrition rather than tests of skill'.
It concludes that 'it's more than good enough to [be called] Metal Gear Solid 5'. High praise indeed.

FANTASTIC Score!!
They gave MGS4 a 95/100 back in the day....while standard have improved since then it seems Peace Walker didn't beat the best game of all time (hehehe) but clearly its one of the best PSP games & worthy of being MGS5!!
