Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow is easily one of the best games ever to hit the PSP. With a better than average single player mode and an amazing multiplayer mode, Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow has something for everyone. With online free for alls that rival those of PC shooters, online gamers won’t be at all disappointed. Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow doesn’t really bring anything new to the table of online shooters, but what it does do, it does exceptionally well.
Cut scenes and in game graphics are both nicely done and come off quite beautifully. Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow really pushes the envelope with the graphics in this game and looks amazing throughout.
Single player mode is fairly good, but it can become quite redundant with its weak plot and frustratingly dumb enemies. The single player missions leave a lot to be desired, and don’t offer much variety aside from killing enemies and gathering objects. However, multiplayer mode is where Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow really shines.
The multiplayer mode offers many match types ranging from deathmatch to capture the flag allowing for an incomparable amount of game time across 7 maps. The online interface allows for clans or “cells” whose members you can communicate with over voice over IP and there’s never a shortage of lag-free servers to find with their handy server filtering system.
Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow’s only shortcoming is the terrible plot, which was responsible for the series failure on the PS2. I often times found my self laughing at the predictability, flatness, and absurdity of the dialogue. Though it’s easy to overlook, especially since you should be spending most of your time online with this game anyway.
I highly recommend you download this game especially if you’re a fan of online shooters. Fans of Counterstrike will find themselves quite happy with their hands on this game.
