[Akeldama]

Electronic Arts has announced Medal of Honor Heroes for PSP. This new game in the series sees heroes from past MoH games such as Allied Assault and Frontline return for new adventures on the Sony handheld. For more details head on over (http://ps2.boomtown.net/en_uk/articles/art.view.php?id=12058) to Boomtown.

That sounds like a horrible idea.

Gamespot ran the trailer for this game yesterday on their Live show: On the Spot...and it was quite impressive. I think developers are really starting to figure out how to get the most from the PSP...

[Zurik]

At first I like the idea of portable Medal of Honor. Then I remember how the controls feel on the PSP, especially for a first person shooter. Blarg!

[Kamalot]

What? Electronic Arts is porting their games?!

[easi]

Just what the PSP needs, another stale franchise port.

[Akeldama]

Don't be so cynical, I'm sure it will play great thanks to the PSP's analog nu...

oh.

never mind.

:)

[AntB]

Looks awesome! I'll definately give it a spin when it comes out.

[Rangoth]

Oh just what the PSP needs, more crap!

[Magnanimous Gnome]

Color me VERY unsurprised.

[Kamalot]

Oh just what the PSP needs, more crap!
Oh just stop being so mean spirited. You know damn well that PSP has plenty of crap without this shitty port. :rolleyes:

[Deadend]

This isn't news. News would be "PSP games that are not ports"

[JRR006]

I haven't played a Medal of Honor game since Allied Assault. It might be an interesting experience on the PSP. Not necessarily good... just interesting.

Gamespot just posted a Q&A with the Producer of the game, including a Gameplay Trailer

"GS: How have you handled the PSP's control limitations?

PC: Translating control schemes always presents a challenge, but, knowing this, we tuned the controls based on information we received from focus testing. The results are intuitive and accommodate all the advanced controls that gamers are accustomed to with the console, including leaning, grenade cooking, and melee attacks. The default control scheme, Commando, plays the most like a console game, but we have three alternate schemes that cater to different styles of play, including Elite, Pathfinder, and Sniper. We've also added the ability to adjust the speed of aiming so players can customize this and other options, like inverted look. "

Fact: Traditional FPS games feel strange on the PSP. I doubt this one will be any different.

I'm gonna save this thread so I can look it up when people tell me, "FPS controls suck on the PSP. Its a fact, look it up."
