    I doubt anyone here has the game yet, as it's on the PSP and it's not released in the U.S yet. Been playing it for a few days on my PSP and I gotta say the new Card System is great fun. The graphics are great for a Turn-Based Strat game too, I never get bored of using the "Special Character" cards and firing my FAMAS at an enemy and hearing the sound through my PSP speakers.

    Sadly I have no idea about what's going on in the storyline as it's allll in Japanese. But gameplay-wise, this is a great Turn-Based Strat game to start your PSP game collection. As usual you must mix stealth with turn-based card strategy so the game has a little twist in it compared to other games of it's genre.

    If anyone can find a site that has the text translated from the Japanese version into English I'd really apreciatte that. =)

    If you have any questions about the game just ask in the topic and I shall answer them, also any questions about the PSP can also be answered.

      I got this game a few days after the debut here in Oz. Reason being, by the time I bought my PSP on the day it was released, they'd run out of copies.

      But now I have, and love this game. At first I thought the idea of a strategy-action-stealth game was a little crap, but after playing it few about 10 minutes, I fell in love with it. It's fun, simple and very addictive.

      I am having trouble working out how to use a few types of cards though.

      I don't have a PSP, nor do I even play MG, but I've seen people playing this game, and the graphics...wow.

        I don't have this game, and when I went to GameStop, they told me that the game was really bad, and that I should get Untold Legends, instead ( ended up as the worst game for the PSP)

          Not even. Untold Legends is awesome.
          By the way, why the hell would a retailer say NOT to buy their stuff?
          And they dont know what they are talking about, MG Ac!d rocks.

            I guess he didn't want me to waste money, and it was a recommendation. (I guess)

              Untold legends is easily outdone by diablo II and Baldurs gate, but it possess one thing they both don't: Complete portability. Plus, why do you think it's so bad?

              Anyway, I got a Genola card. Its fun knocking everyone out at once.

                First of all, the dungeons all look the same, and so do the monsters

                2. The missions get repetetive after awhile

                3. The game just sucks.

                  Whatever. It's fun to play.

                  Back to Acid...

                  Got Teliko with a HF blade, Dual blades and spin kick. Along with some 'good' movement cards and some Cardboard boxes, leaving her very fun to use.

                  ie: Sneak up on gaurds, slice them to shreds, get in a box, sneak off.

                  Very fun.

                    I'm going to sell my JP version and buy the UK version so I can finally understand the storyline and the gameplay properly.

                      AC!D = Boring, card-based, slow as hell, illogical PSP game.
                      Untold Legends = Boring, repetitive, slow as hell in load times, unoriginal PSP game.
                      Lumines = BUY IT. NOW.

                          Acid looks very cool. It's a shame I don't have the PSP. Nintendo should be sweating, some of the games coming out now for the PSP are totally awesome.

                            Trust me, most of the games out now really suck.

                            Only a few of them I like. imo

                              Well, the only good game for the DS is Polarium. The PSP has MGA, that futuristic racing one and a lot more.

                                Ac!d still pleases the MGS fans out there, but it IS of lower quality compared to other MGS games produced by Kojima. The fact that this game wasn't made by Kojima is proof that MGS needs Kojima's touch of magic to be magical.

                                Also, Lumines PWNS, if you have a PSP you must have Lumines it's truly excellent. As for Untold Legends, if you've bought that game you must be stupid or clueless. Don't you people read reviews before buying? That game sucks ass.
