IGN Reviews Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror
Oh man, it looks like March is going to be a very bad month for PSP owner’s wallets! First Daxter scores a 9.0, and now IGN gives Sony Bend developed Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror a score of 9.3! Start dancing in the streets folks, the PSP has just found its killer app, at least according to IGN:
As for the game itself, Sony Bend has crafted the game to beat on the PSP. For starters, it controls remarkably well for such a complex game. Even with the impressive number of combat techniques and maneuvers at your disposal, it’s incredibly simple to come to grips with everything. Instead of spending time struggling with different control schemes in hopes of finding the “right” one, most will acclimate to the default setting in less than ten minutes – it’s that intuitive.
Dark Mirror has one of, if not the most robust multiplayer package of any PSP title. It makes use of the system’s Ad-Hoc (local), infrastructure (online) and game sharing capabilities. With both Ad-Hoc and infrastructure, you can jump into eight-player Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Objective and Rogue Agent modes.”
So there you have it boys and girls, if you haven’t already pre-ordered a copy do it now and support developers who are actually putting time and effort into creating fully featured, robust PSP games.
