Metal Gear Acid

Great game. And it should go without saying, if you can\'t read Japanese, don\'t buy the Japanese version! Of course it is going to be difficult to understand.
That said, the card system is really good, I\'m pretty impressed with the new style of gameplay. It\'s not like MG on a PS2, but then why should it be?
There are a few awkward things in the game, watching huge dialogue cutscenes over and over again if you die, opening doors, at times frustrating camera angles, but nothing so severe as to outright ruin gameplay.
Recommended to anyone who isn\'t expecting a brainless shooting game.

The game is excellent... once you get the hang of it. A helpful tutorial is essentially nonexistent, but when you get the ins and outs of the deep gameplay, it\'s a rewarding experience. One of the big pluses of the gameplay is that while it isn\'t a stealth-action game and is really a strategy game, it\'s much nicer as a portable game.

As long as you find a guide of some sort to help you get a feel for playing it instead of wading through rather frustrating dialogue trying to figure things out, I highly recommend it for fans of the MGS games and strategy junkies alike.

i lick it

If you dont know any japaneese, to play this game is impossible. It takes forever to get you to the action and all the dialagos are too long even ifg you were able to understand them.

I have never been so frustrated with a game in my life !!!!!

I hope someone is kind enough to give out some pointers on how to play this game (and save it so you dont have to start all over every time)

Good luck if you buy it outside japan !!

the \"card strategy game\" was initially offputting, but it has the feel of the proper game, rather than being a \"card game\" - which can be quite a misleading term

it\'s basically just issuing orders to Snake, saying go to this particular spot, shoot, go up this ladder, etc. (basically like the original), but in a more indirect way, which makes it more conveinient and easy to play on the go (you can\'t watch the screen constantly when walking down a busy street, can you? =P)

I\'ll give it 5/5, excellent graphics, nice character pic artwork and gameplay which is both good and practical

worth buying for any metal gear fan!
