  1. It looks good, it plays good, and it does handheld multiplayer as well as anything out there. Bond and PSP make perfect bedfellows. [Apr 2006, p.107]
  2. One of those games that doesn’t set out to have any huge impact on game design or execution. It does however make sure that what it puts forth is solid and entertaining.
  3. Game play can become repetitive quickly, so only those who dream of joining Her Majesty’s Secret Service, or implicitly trust the quality of EA games need apply.
  4. From Russia With Love is a perfect example of how not to port a game from the PS2 to PSP. It does absolutely nothing new and a host of things much worse.

    This is a really fun game and I'm not saying this because I work EA - it's just as good if not better than every PSP game out there right now. Expand

    This isn't a bad shooter for the PSP. The graphics are what you should expect for a PS2 to PSP port, the controls are well done (only complaint is the camera rotation is a little bit slow at times), and the gameplay is solid. It's not SOCOM (the best PSP shooter available), but it's a very good game to play if you didn't play the console version. Expand
