Call of Duty: Black Ops for PSP

Paul writes, "Call of Duty: Black Ops is a game that has its players addicted just like previous COD titles. I personally find myself compelled to sit in on the game playing for hours and hours on end often not opting out of matchmaking for even a bathroom break (not recommended)...."

This would only make sense realistically, I'm shocked that it wasn't a first thought for Treyarch/Activision.

[8-bit]

No dual analog means I refuse to play COD on the PSP. I used to love my PSP but I can't play FPS on it, just hurts me to do so.

@Hutman, I never said it was ok on the DS. I have my money waiting for a PSP2 with dual analog, then I will be hyped for things like this. I have played MoH on the PSP and the controls are just terrible. You have to use the Triangle, X, Square and Circle to aim as if it was an analog stick but it's not. Just too sloppy

[Hitman0769]

Okay thats fine and its your opinion but why does Nintendo DS make it okay then? They also have no dual sticks.

@8bit sounds good to me but i hate waiting , i'd prefer both.

[raztad]

Does the DS have any stick at all? At any rate PSP> DS for playing shooters.

[tacosRcool]

Another analog stick would be nice. I agree with Hitman0769

[AwesomeJizz]

@Hitman gee smartass I don't know maybe because the DS has a stylus?
Maybe because the aiming system is so damn fine compared to the PSP one?

"You have to use the Triangle, X, Square and Circle to aim as if it was an analog stick but it's not"
The reverse controls work decently.

It really pisses me off that Sony didn't go for 2 sticks for the PSP and that 3DS is doing the same.

[Hayabusaman]

Indeed it would be awesome.

[meiamsome]

I would prefer it on the 3DS since the game did support 3D, but if they are going multiplatform anyway it should be on all platforms. I saw a iPhone version of World at War's Zombies mode so why wouldn't there be a PSP Black Ops? It just makes sense.

[King-Leonidas]

errr...

[Pedantic91]

Don't ya think ?

[-Mezzo-]

Great news, for PSP owners.

[Hayabusaman]

Its why not not here it is :)

[rajman]

WTF?

[NarooN]

LOLWAT

[MGRogue2017]

Holy shi.. Yes, Make it happen, Treyarch!

I already enjoy playing Zombies mode on my DSi.. but on my PSP with better graphics & performance?? OMG. I want.

[Godmars290]

Wonder when can expect the iPhone/iPad editions?

[Cajun Chicken]

That would be pretty cool. Just in general, but still to this day, people insist that FPS'es don't work on PSP.

[Hitman0769]

they work fine for me, but then again i'm the type to adapt if it's reasonable. I felt like the OLD FPS's sucked on it (MGS Portable Ops) but the new ones rock (Resistance Retribution, Peace Walker).

Just my opinion though, I still wish it had dual sticks obviously!

@Cajun facepalms yeah good point i fudged that lol, its early and havnt had my coffee durrrr

[Cajun Chicken]

Those aren't 'First Person Shooters' they're 'Third Person Shooters' because they're seen from people's backs.

Games such as MoH Heroes didn't seem to work that well.

[OhReginald]

I dont see how it can work...but if it has goldenye 64 controls...then ok.

[MGRogue2017]

Simple.

R = Shoot

L = Aim

Analogue stick = Move Around

"X", "Triangle", "Square", "Circle" buttons = Look Up, Down, Left, Right

D Pad Up = Hold to Switch weapons, Press Once to Reload

D Pad Down = Grenades

D Pad Left = ???

D Pad Right = ???

... See? Controls are pretty much sorted, Just make 'em like with any other standard PSP shooter like Medal of Honor (PSP)

[MASTER_RAIDEN]

Hey man it worked on turok 64.....

Id actually like to see face buttons used as camera controls revisited. Honestly idk why no one hasnt already tried it on psp.

[NarooN]

Using face buttons to move is already an option in tons of PSP shooters, and I dunno why no one knows this or ever uses them. It makes a world of difference and while you obviously won't be as accurate as with a mouse or the DS' stylus, it's a big step up from using the face buttons to aim.

Notable games with this optional setup: The PSP Syphon Filter games, MGS Portable Ops, Medal of Honor PSP, Coded Arms.

[nevin1]

@ OhReginald

When i switched to the 1 stick control formula for MOH and Syphon Filter Dark Mirrior, the games played WAY better than face buttons for camera controls.

anyway, i personaly think they have nothing to lose giving the game brung in over half a billion in sales if not mistaken. and most likely it will be a port/half assed so they dont have to spend much.

[beast242tru]

why would they put it on ds and not psp w.t.f ds graphics are worst no analog and only kids mostly have nintendo handheld i dnt understand

[RIPSKATEDESTROY]

you said it, makes sense!

[LOOK_AT_THIS_I]

they need to save it for the psp 2 and hurry up and release the damn thing with 2 analog sticks. god I remember playing socom on the psp first model and god that sucked ass. having to hold down the trigger buttons to look around. those psp games would be awesome with that 2nd stick. i lost my psp after about 6 months and never bothered replacing it due to the lack of a 2nd stick it was just too cumbersome to have to control a shooter style game which was my reason for getting it in the first place. Im waiting it out for the psp2, IF it has 2 analog sticks.

with all the remodels they done of the psp why the hell did they not include a 2nd stick? they heard about the lack of it since the release...they need to stop with the games and bundles and get the next one to market, polish everything in the pipeline up and release the next with lots of games at launch.

Bunch of people are going to be pissed this when they get one and the next model is announced for release mid next year.

@HolyOrangeCows: Nintendo is taunting sony and giving it a handicap.

N: We'll let you have the 2 analogue nubs. Since we're already confident with the 3D screen.

Sony: Pshhh... We won't have 3D but we'll be the first dedicated portable gaming device to do FPS and TPS the "right" way xD

Can't wait for a good FPS/TPS game for the PSP2 with infrastructure support

(just my baseless opinions and jibberish) :D
