Peace, Love and Black Ops

Brace yourself: Your PlayStation Portable is about to get very ‘Metal’

As gamers across the nation are aware, tomorrow, Hideo Kojima’s signature franchise, Metal Gear, makes its long-awaited debut on the PSP with Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. The story, which takes place in the wake of the Cuban Missile Crisis, at long last tells the origin of Naked Snake (a.k.a. Big Boss)—the legendary soldier who would eventually wage war against the world.

If you’re on the fence about dropping the ducats for Peace Walker, GCD’s got four good reasons that may help you decide:

You’ll play more than once
Kojima Productions has broken new ground in terms of incorporating various game styles while maintaining what made the franchise a mainstay among other platforms for decades now.

This ain’t your older brother’s Metal Gear
While it ain’t a Metal Gear game without its share of stealth missions, fans should expect brand new gameplay, which blends the best of RPG and RTS worlds.

Recruit your buddies
With Peace Walker, you and up to three of your PSP having buddies can team up for special co-op missions that also introduce new and revolutionary gameplay elements.

It’s frackin’ Metal Gear!
Peace Walker is a true continuation of the ever-evolving storyline established in the original Metal Gear, written, directed and designed by Kojima himself!
