The PSP version of Dead to Rights is a fun shoot-'em-up game that features "bullet time": when you press and hold the dive button (the triangle) button, you enter slow motion time where you can pick off each target and kill them with just one shot. It takes some practice to do this, as right after you enter the slow motion "bullet time" -- it lasts just a few seconds -- you have to lock each target, shoot, lock the next target, shoot, repeat. It's easier said than done, hampered by the stupid in-game camera, which often messes up your game. The camera is insanely stupid at time, which is why I give this game only 2 stars. It's really very poorly implemented on the PSP, which has a small, cramped-feeing control pad to start with.

The other reason for the two star rating is the game is ridiculously short. Just rent it from Blockbuster (which, BTW, lets you keep a game or video for up to two weeks) and I bet you can finish it in a day or two. Multi-player mode is pretty lame after a while, too, as there's little variety. The soundtrack is okay and adds to the mayhem experience. Finally, while at times you can command your loyal dog Shadow to attack your enemy, it's a rather limited feature.

Seriously, the game could have been so much better. I thought after all the problems they had with the console versions, the developers would finally get the gameplay right. Nope.

Verdict: do NOT waste your money on this one. It's too short and too frustrating at times. At best a rental title.

This game is more like the arcade shooting game. The controls are set up extremely poorly. Even worse, it is just not very entertaining

This is one of those games that were created in a hurry to make money while the sun shines....

The controls ARE HORRIBLE and ur hands will hurt after awhile...luckily i rented this from blockbuster. Game play is dead boring as well....

2 thumbs down....way down

wow im shocked on how short it was it took one hour to finish it on normal and the controls are sloppy i was getting pi**ed off of this game but the graphics are good but it is kind of fun when you get the hang of it! im going to all the good things about it:

1.graphics are good!
2.sound is o.k.!

now im going to say the worst things about this

1.controls are sloppy/crap!
2.too short no mini games!
3.gameplay sucks but kind of good sometimes when you just wanna play a shooter!
4.price on it for a short game like this! there going to be bankrupt!
5.music sucks! but the sound off guns going off is good!

pretty much this game sucks no need to get it but dead to rights fans maybe like this if they have a psp!

graphics 4/10 its good for a game like this!
sound 5/10 sound of guns going off is way better but music sucks
gameplay 4/10 kind of fun sometimes when you just wanna play a shooter!
controls 1/10 sucks soo sloppy!

overall=3.2 i think this is the lowest game i had evered reviewed!

I purchased 'Dead to Rights' the day it came out. I also completed it the day it came out. Basically, the gameplay is addictive, graphics impressive- overall an excellent game production, much along the same lines as 'Max Payne'. Its just way too short!! It has about 10 short, easy levels. Before you know it, its over! Your left high and dry- pineing for more gameplay.

Well, another new game has arrived for the psp and at first I was really excited about this one. The graphics look great, the sound is good, and overall the gameplay is alot of fun blasting enemies in a slow motion bullet time dive. The controls are pretty good but for only having one analog nub the camera isn't as bad as you might think. But for all those considering buying this game, be warned that it is extremely short. I normally take my time playing new games that I buy but I was able to beat this game right away. Sure you can unlock new multiplayer levels and skins but since none of my friends own this, there is little incentive for me to go for that. Hopefully we will get another sequel or something down the road with a longer story because that is all it would have took for me to fully recommend this game.

I was really impressed when I picked up this game. The graphics are really good and it *looked* like it would be cool. But every mission seems to be about the same. Go around, press the x button (to shoot) a bunch of times and maybe send the dog once or twice. Yawn. But the graphics are good and it is fun - it just seems like the same thing over and over. Very linear gameplay, the indicators always tell you where to go. Controls are a little awkward, sometimes I can get him to aim where I want him, and sometimes the dog just won't go when I send him.

So overall...decent game...is it worth $40? Depends on what $40 is worth to you. I was hoping for better.

This game is just bad. The storyline is short and the ending just wanted to make me puke. Whenever I buy a new game I always research and read the customer reviews which has helped me not waste my money, well I did waste it on this one. If you really want to play it rent it for the weekend, you will beat the game in about 3 hours.

This game is one of the most amazing games I have ever played. The storyline is great and the controls are very easy. The online is simply amazing. I highly reccomend buying this game.

I bought this game and beat it after 2-3 days. I played it several times on all different difficulties and unlocked everything. It was good while it lasted but it was way too short.
