I had originally posted this same thread on the PSP board, but since no one seems to give a damn, I'm reposting it here. I think it's pertinent considering the upcoming release of the MGS HD Collection on the Xbox 360. Anyway, the original post:

So, all the talk about the MGS HD Collection rekindled my interest in my dusted MGS Peace Walker UMD. I never got past the tutorial (although I was overwhelmed by the little I saw), thinking that I should play Portable Ops first - a game that I played a couple of missions and really disliked.

So my question is: is Portable Ops necessary for a good understanding of Peace Walker's plot? Even better, is it necessary in any level at all?

I think you missed my point there. Or I wasn't clear enough. I want to know if I need to play Portable Ops (the MGS released on the PSP previous to Peace Walker) in order to better understand Peace Walker's plot.
