Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops

from www.amazon.com
instead of sony putting two analog controllers on the psp, you have to alternate between it and the digital pad.
from www.amazon.com
even though the psp lacks the 2nd analog controller as well as the 2 trigger buttons, the game plays well.
from www.amazon.com
moving metal gear to the psp was undoubtedly a dificult task given the psp's single analog joystick.
from www.amazon.com
i was disappointed that mpo did not incorporate the "pressure sensitive" features of the analog stick.
from www.amazon.com
i still have a hard time getting use to only having one analog stick, but its getting better.

my only complaint is the targeting system could be a little more intuitive because of lack of a right analog, and therefore takes some getting used to (especially online) and it sucks battery pretty

strengths: it has really good graphics like ps2 weaknesses: analog stick summary: they could make more cars in the game.
from Chris from Rockville, MD, www.circuitcity.com
my only complaint is that with the lack of a right side analog stick, you are unable to glance left and right as you are moving,making it difficult to look down side alleys ( and locate enemies!) as
from pspfan from Jacksonville, FL, www.circuitcity.com
would have been a perfect game with the addition of a second analog stick.
from Chris from Northern Virginia, www.circuitcity.com
one frustration is that the lack ofa second (right hand) analog stick means that you cannot pan left and right as you move.

Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror

from Land, www.circuitcity.com
the gameplay is very good even though the psp doesn't have a second analog.
from www.amazon.com
sony tried to replace the right analog stick, with the face buttons, but it just doesn't fell as good as when you're playing with two analog sticks...
from www.amazon.com
i therefore have virtually no experience with games that use two analog joysticks, so i didn't really know what i was missing.
from www.amazon.com
the control scheme lets you mimic dual-analog control by using buttons creatively while the menu and weapons interfaces are intuitive.
from www.amazon.com
now some of you know that some games that were on home video counsels are crying for another analog stick, not this one.

Katamari Damacy

$62.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.pricegrabber.com
on the psp you only have 1 analog stick so you have to use the face buttons in place of what you would use your right analog stick for on a playstation 2 controller and while it's not as good as
from eau697, www.pricegrabber.com
however, the control is different from the ps2 versions since there is only one analog stick on the psp.
from www.amazon.com
i'm guessing there isn't much difference between katamari damacy and we love katamari, and as i understand it both titles employ the ps2's twin analog sticks to control the ball (or, officially, your
from www.pricegrabber.com
controls are a little awkward at first, as the d-pad and face buttons replace the ps2's dual analog setup for movement, but katamari vets will have little trouble rolling their katamari here.
from www.pricegrabber.com
to move the katamari, players can use the analog stick and the face buttons.

summary: it's hard to think socom when there's only one analog nub.
from -HATE- from Toledo, Ohio, www.circuitcity.com
theres only one analog so zipper did the best they could.
from www.pricegrabber.com
since there is no second analog stick, the developers had to make-up for this absence--so no aiming required.
from www.amazon.com
the controls sound like they would be brutal, but zipper really took their time on this one and made it work with just one analog 'nub': the nub controls forward/backward movement, and allows you to

the controls work very well; i especially like the analog stick as your "table nudger".
from www.amazon.com
i must also note that out of all pinball video games i have played, the nudge function, applied by a twitch of the analog nub, is very convincing and very intuitive.
from www.amazon.com
you use the analog stick to move jack about, which works just fine; it's very intuitive.

the only drawback to this is that the plunger / nudge functions are controlled from the analog stick, requiring the user to make a somewhat awkward reach...

God of War: Chains Olympus

$23.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
it is first rate and just like it's ps2 brothers, despite the lack of an analog stick.
from www.amazon.com
for some it may take a little while before you get used to the little analog nub that the psp has.
from www.amazon.com
then there's the timed-button presses like when you take down a baddie with either pressing the face buttons or rotating the analog a certain way.
from www.amazon.com
there are a lot of combat moves, most of which are transfers from the other god of war games...but had to be changed with the lack of a second analog stick.
from www.amazon.com
given the psp's limitations in terms of controls (namely the lack of a second analog stick and the pain large hands will feel playing on this for too long), chains of olympus plays really well.

the buttons on this new one seem a little too rigid, i'm afraid they might break off especially the analogue, whereas the older version although some did break off, they werea little more solid!

using the analog nub in conjunction with the digital controls is easy and comforting.

the analog controller takes a long time to master on this game, and even then i find myself going back to the 4 way.
from www.amazon.com
i find that the analog nubbin is not comfortable to use for long periods of time, and the built in speakers do not do justice to the great spatial sound effects and music.
from www.amazon.com
tired from constantly pushing on the analog nub and the x button.
from www.amazon.com
the handling of the car is terrific; you can use the d-pad or analog stick for subtle taps, and the shoulder triggers work airbrakes for harder, tighter steering.

from customer from oregon, www.circuitcity.com
a good game but demands allot of use out of the analog button on the psp at first if a person is not careful the analog button could ware out with this game.
from www.pricegrabber.com
the problem of trying to port a ps2 game to psp is always the lack of a second analog stick and load times.
from www.amazon.com
you can switch control schemes, but default classic control means you move with the analog stick and throw punches with the face buttons (high and low, left and right).
from www.amazon.com
great gameplay and graphics.the only problem(at least for me) is that you must use the analog button to move your fighter around, instead of giving you the option of using the traditional

in standard driving mode, x to drive, d-pad or analog nub to manuever, square to brake, and r to turbo; that's pretty much it.
from www.amazon.com
the controls are easy to use, with the d-pad and analog stick being both available to use.d braking and accelerating are not too wild, which i thought were in nfs underground rivals.
from www.amazon.com
which again could be the difference between the accurancy/sensitivity of the analog stick vs the ones from the xbox and ps2.

this is frustrating when you're a couple thousand away from a gold, and all you need to do is hit that last trailer on the other side of the street, but for all your mighty struggling with the analog

by normal ways your soldier will walk, and if you need to run, you tap, and then hold the up analog stick.

controls - 5 out of 5 - they said a good fps could not be done right with the use of only one analog stick on the psp but guess what ea prove them (critics) wrong.
