If you like games that have lots of gunplay and slo-motion action, this is the game for you.
The Graphics are great on it although the game could've used some in-game dialogue. The only thing the seperates it from being good is the camera. It's very unstable and could've been better.The load times are really fast although some of the levels are pretty short. The sound is good especially when you go into slo-motion. It's best to get this game as a rental becasue I finished it in one playing time which took not even 2 hours. After a while the playability gets a bit boring although it is sometimes fun to play it after a long time. Overall, this game is best for a rental.

First off I rented this from blockbuster as I do most of my PSP games these days and thank god I did. I briefly played this on the Xbox awhile back and had some mild fun with it then. When I tried it out on the PSP I was suprised to see some pretty decent graphics but after that things went down hill.
Aiming, aim assist, and the camera sometimes make it completely hard to navigate your guy where you want him to go, especially in the last level. The controls themselves aren't that bad and I got used to the slow motion dive and calling shadow fairly fast. About shadow the dog, he has no real point in the story (btw, not any real story, kidnapping blah blah). Shadow for me served to get hidden or distant targets and it's always nice when he can get to them in a split second and ninja strike them as if from nowhere, lol. He really just pops out of thin air and kills the bad guy and steals his gun, I think they could just have a sniper buddy that kills guys for you because the way the dog is implemented in the game, he feels randomly thrown in and it just doesnt look right. The gameplay was kind of boring to start with and it wasn't until the later stages and better guns did the game pick up a bit.
The sound was forgettable default music, or at least it is now, lol. The load times weren't so terrible, but that's after playing MC3 for a while lol.
When it came down to it, I beat the game on normal in around a hour and a half at most and had the feeling I got jipped after I was done. Some parts of the game are a little harder than others but the game stayed pretty simple throughout. The last guy, Whisper I beat on the first try and I didn't even know that the game was gonna be over, I thought it was gonna be an imposter or something lol.
Well that was it, the game was over, and I had no need to play it anymore or on any other difficulty. Keep in mind, this game does also offer a multiplyer feature, but I wasn't willing to find someone with a game to try it. Even though it had brief moments, I hope this game isn't a sign of things to come. If you were a fan of the older version, rent it, if you are looking for a fun game worth 6 dollars to rent, walk past this one.

The simple and repetitive gameplay is fun for a while, but I am dissapointed that Namco would sell such a short and feature- lacking game. This UMD is better off borrowed or rented-- that is for certain. This game is nice for a quick play, or for showing it off to friends.
The graphics and framerate are decent. But a major problem for me was the controls, which were not well thought out for the PSP. It can be a real pain (even physically) trying to hit all the right buttons. I found myself constantly, unintentionally shutting off my PSP from the awkward grip that was needed for this game.
The in-game camera is also quite annoying, but the enemy targetting system is decent. If you buy this game you will finish it in just a couple sittings (at the very most). There is no way I can recommend buying this game new.

I was really looking forward to this game, but I got it the second day. When I woke up I read the reviews and I became worried, but went out and bought this game anyway.
When I loaded it in and started to play I had tons of fun, the AI is really good, the graphics are great and the framerate does not slow down at all like other people say. The lock on target is really helpful because if it was manual, the controls would be way too hard. Also at times you are attacked by so many people that you really need the lock on.
Out of a ten this game at least deserves an 8. Online play would have been a great bonus but I still enjoy the ad-hoc play with my friends. The story isn't that great but the game has lots of replay value because you unlock skins and cheats and multiplayer levels. So please go out there and get it, it's a really good game which deserves more credit.

Rather dissapointing, rushed game, with many bugs and useless solutions. Camera is crazy, bringing chaos to gameplay and you can't control it in any other way other than waiting to auto-calibrate or auto-aim every 2 seconds.
All gameplay is a simplified to the max straight shooter, with different weaponry, some bullet-time jumping and disarming moves (coolest feature of the game). You have silenced weapons but you can NEVER surprise the enemy, you can go stealth, but everybody on the map always know where you are - where's the point of all that ?
But nothing beats the length of the game: 3-4 hours on Normal and it's Game Over. Sorry Namco - You've got to try harder.

The only good thing about this game is the fact that the load times are only about 10 seconds tops. Other then that, this game doesn't deliver what I am used to in the Dead to Rights series. The camera angle in this game is the worst camera job I've seen done since Lord of The Rings: ROTK, which was pretty bad. Besides that, shadow the dog is really weird because if I tell him to attack a guy, he'll just pop out of nowhere. It is so weird like I don't see him following me or anything.
The guns in this game were ok, I found myself running out of ammo fairly quickly, and I used my bullets sparsely and only when I need them. So if I was battling a boss, I'd be out of bullets by then and forced to use shafdow to knock the boss guy down while I try to punch him to death. Not a very affective way of killing someone might I add. Graphics were decent enough, better then everyone expected.
Something I did not like was if a health square or some body armor was on top of a crate, I couldn't just jump on top of it. I had to leap to it, something I hated because leaping takes a lot out of your adrenaline bar, and it's in slow motion sometimes, so it's not a given you're going to get the health ontop of the small crate.
Overall, wait for Coded Arms, don't make the same mistake I made with this 3rd person shooter.

I almost cried when I put the UMD in, it was great. Watching Jack Slate release a slew of carnage on his enemies and just destroy everything in sight. Awww man I had a tear coming down my face. The controls took me 5 to 10 minutes, but it's all good. If you are a DTR fan you defeinetly will like this game.

Not a bad game consitering what is out there to choose from. The graphics are nice and in some places even amazing ( allthough I expected no less).
If you have nothing to spend your money on till the really cool stuff is released buy it. The major, major and I have to say again, major complaint I had with this game was the lenght of it. With what is said about the capacity of the UMD (1.8 GB) I wanted a game that would last more than an afternoon. And the 49$ I shelled out on it does not make it even close to being worth that. I would expect at least 30 hours game play time and this game does not deliver that. But all in all not a bad game (for what is out there)

Dead to rights is kinda easy. It should include more stuff in it just like most of these PSP games. Load time are short. (Thank god)

I can't believe this franchise has gone so downhill. The first one was great, albeit tough, on Xbox. This game is not worth your time. Although it will definitely not take up much of your time. I consider myself a somewhat casual gamer. Meaning it takes me FAR longer to complete a game then most of the gaming sites say it will. DTR: Reckoning took me 4 hours to beat. Nuff said.

A rent for sure, I went out and bought it once I saw it, so I don't think I made a bad choice. If you find some guys to play ad-hoc with then it would surely make the game even better. Or if not buy, at least rent for the disarms, my personal favorite.
The graphics are very well done, some of the levels could have been a little less murky and dark, overall the graphics are well done.
The music is a generic action beat so nothing very special there, the sound really didn't stand out in the game. So nothing special.
Not long at all, could I say...short? Yea they were pretty short, hop from one mission to another in a matter of seconds. Great job on that.
If only I could find someone to play with then I would rate it, once I do, I'll post back. Hosted a game and messed around and seemed if you had some people up and running, it would rock for sure.
Unlike some other games like Lumines or Metal Gear Acid, the game is pretty straight forward. Once you play through you can go back to unlock unlimited ammo and unlimited "bullet time juice".
It may get a little repititive after a while but will appeal to the certain gamers. Plus a major bonus of why to at least rent it, the brutal disarms, that truely was wicked all by itself. There are at least 10 or so and they very depending on the weapon ive figured out, different disarms for different guns, instead of the same disarm one after another.

My Untold Legends and FIFA 2005 just got abandoned today. Awesome, bloody, full action, I love the slo-mo dive and shoot action..
