 REVIEW: 2007-04-06

This title was not enjoyable.

Problem 1: even in the dark with the screen at full brightness, I had a hard time making out what was on the screen.

Problem 2: I have played most of the games in this series and the controls require a certain degree of finesse to really sneak around. The PSP is not really capable of delivering that fine interface experience and I was frustrated from the moment I picked up the game in this regard.

The game may get better (though I doubt it based on reviews that I have read), but I have precious little time right now that I get to actually play video games and a game that starts off this frustrating does not get the opportunity to improve.
