A very smart game, and just what the psp needed

User Rating: 9.5 | SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Tactical Strike PSP
Many people criticize this game, because you don't control a seal directly. And for those people who simply enjoy gunning down enemies(who have less health than you), by all means, get the fireteam bravo series instead. However, those of you who enjoy a good strategic game, which requires a large amount of preparation before engaging the enemy, get this game.
Still, this doesn't mean there is less action in the game. There's the same amount, if not more, of action and adrenaline rush in this game as the previous SOCOM games. You control two groups of two-men teams, and in the game, there's a lot of the "oh, s***" feeling when the enemies find you and engage.
Strategically, I personally enjoy having one team taking cover directly across the enemy, and one team directly to the side of the enemy(at an elevated surface if possible, for a better view) and the the first team would fire at the enemy to distract them, then the team to the side would fire, and down the enemy. if all goes well, a relatively large group of enemies would go down in a second or two.

Very fun, solid game. it works great on the psp, and may even be THE best game on the portable console.
