5/10 - Mediocre

PROS:

FPS - Features three distinct campaigns, each focusing on a different Allied force: American, Canadian, and British.
PROS:
++ Generous lock-on. To compensate for slower aiming, this game gives the player a generous lock-on system when the enemies are at a certain range. This makes the game a tad bit easy, but turning it off would make the game much too tedious and needlessly difficult.
++ The COD experience. The game gives a decent portable experience of the early COD titles (COD 1). Decent gunplay, enough variety in objectives, and three campaigns (although they all felt the same).
CONS:
-- Controls. I understand that this title was designed for the PSP which only had one analog stick. But nevertheless, I disliked the fact that aiming was performed using the face buttons (x, triangle, circle, square).
-- Bugged objectives. There were four or five instances in which I would finish an objective but the game would fail to update and move forward. Usually, I would just have to wait 2-3 minutes more, but in one or two instances I had to kill myself and repeat that section.
-- Terrible squad-mate AI. Not only do they fail to kill anything, but they block the doorways so often!
-- Lack of narrative.
-- Inconsistent hit boxes. Even when the reticule is right on an enemy, sometimes the shot doesn't register.
