Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror (PlayStation Portable, 2006)

I have never played any other game in the Syphon Filter series besides Dark Mirror, and frankly I am very impressed. When I was first looking into buying a PSP I went through list after list looking for a game that would entertain for the next 2 months, considering that the PSP in itself is enough to make your wallet cry.

After playing through the first mission I was completely astounded. I felt like I was actually playing a PlayStation. The graphics we're outstanding, besides a couple facial issues, and the gameplay was almost perfect. This game contains 7 episodes. Each episode is divided into parts. There are a total of 24 parts in the entire game. There is also 4 training missions and another 5 bonus missions that can be unlocked by completing various tasks after the story is beaten. There is also tons of unlockable weapons the can be selected at the beginning of a mission when participating in mission mode. This is 6 hours of playing just for the unlockables. The story mode in itself takes around 7 hours. Although it took me around 11 or so. And if this doesn't satisfy your tastes then there is also a great online mode. All in all this is perhaps one of greatest portable games that I have ever played. Even after beating the story mode your going to want to play through each separate part at least twice. I easily recommend this too anyone looking for a great shooter for the PSP.
