Summary: Not bad for the first FPS for PSP in the US

I haven't finished Coded Arms yet, but here is my review so far.

Graphics: Solid graphics for an FPS. Weapons and enemies look great and the environment you are in is also quite good looking. 4/5

Sound: Guns sound good, but some actual music, or the ability to use your own MP3s would be nice. I listened to my iPod while playing for some decent killing tunes. It really lacked in this department. 2/5

Control: Great layout for the PSP device itself, worked just like many FPSs. The quick select came in handy, especially for the reload glitch. Targeting could have used some work. 4.5/5

Gameplay: The story itself is nothing really special, pretty generic if you ask me, and it isn't explained in the game. The random maps are also pretty basic, where most have about 3-6 rooms, and 1-3 of those actually have enemies. It made things kind of repetitive and each Sector was pretty much the same with different skins on them. 3/5

Special Considerations (First-Person Shooter): Though the weapons were somewhat generic with different properties, they looked great and were pretty cool. Some could go though, mainly the elemental pistols, especially the light and virus pistol, and some of the grenades were not so spectacular even getting them late in the game. Powerups did help at certain points in the game, but I found one locked room with only 0-damage in it, kinda boring for me. 3/5

Overall: Good game if you want a FPS for your PSP, it's no Half-Life or Halo, but it's a good buy and I would recommend it to an average gamer who would like to add a shooter to their game collection.
