 Good Entertainment! December 29, 2008

I bought the game for my cousin since he got a new PSP for Christmas. I ended up playing the game more than he did. The graphics are great and the game itself is fun yet challenging. I would recommend this to anyone who likes war games!
 Solid game... but little in the way of improvements December 11, 2008

Pro's:
Excellent control system
Good story
Con's:
New features are little more than gimmicks
Numerous "boss" battles are far to easy
Logan's Shadow is another in a long line of Syphon Filter games, two of which stand out in the PSP's game line-up. However, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror (the predecessor to Logan's Shadow) was a more enjoyable game. Logan's Shadow sought to take all the things that Dark Mirror did right, and add a few new tricks... the tricks failed. The sysem now allows for grappling, a feature that is not only unneccessary but often ineffective. They have also added underwater combat, which feels more like a break in game style and loses many of the advantages of their control system. Lastly, the game's "bosses" can be exceedingly easy to beat. In many cases, I smart player could (and I actually have) take out a boss with a single shot.
Logan's Shadow would easily have earned a 4 star rating... if it were not for the fact that Dark Mirror was a better and more enjoyable game.

This was my first PSP game (I just got one) and I have to say that I was impressed. I literally felt like I was playing a PS2 game and that is something when you are talking about a handheld.
I am sure everyone covered the detailed reviews I just want to say that if you like action games you will love this game. The controls take a little getting used to, but after about 10 minutes you won't miss the other analog from PS3 controller (at least not too much :)
This is definitely a AAA game. Good graphics, interesting story, and fun gameplay. It even has a decent amount of replay value to get more guns and so on. Stop reading this and just buy it!

Before I bought my PSP, I did a research to see what I could do with that PSP. Then, I was hooked... now I can read books, play emulators and other stuff, and I wanted to buy a good game with the system. It was Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror. I loved it, then when this one (Logan's Shadow came up; I loved it too. If you liked Metal Gear Portable Ops... maybe you might like this one better since you don't have to read that much, or recruit like Metal Gear. I love Metal Gear though. Get this one and for less than [...]!!
