Metal Gear Ac!d 2 (PSP) was released during this busy gaming week. With all the new releases and news this week, this is a game not to be missed in the shuffle. The sequel to last year's PSP card-deck game, Metal Gear Ac!d, MGA2 gets you into the game easier than before with a tutorial on the get-go. There's a new colorful graphic style, connectivity to the PS2 via "Metal Gear: Subsistence" and the game uses a new 3d technique, "Solid Eye", to bring the game to a new dimension. The included "Solid Eye" cardboard (sturdy and coated) folds up and slips over the PSP to bring some amazing 3d visualizations in-game and in cutscene movies. The Solid Eye Theatre will show killer 3d movies, which are unlocked by finding various cards. Movies shown include cutscenes from Metal Gear: Snake Eater and videos from various Japanese women playing with guns and posing! If you couldn't get into the first Ac!d, give this one a hit because its one slick innovative gaming experience. See more pics here.
