Killzone: Liberation is on many online PSP Top 10 lists. It delivers but it is not without its flaws. 20 minutes into the game I almost gave up on it, but I am glad I stuck with it because its pros outweigh its cons. The key to enjoyment is quickly getting used to the controls and the mechanics of the game, which can be a bit clunky and frustrating at times until you get used to them.
Cons:
The graphics are not that good.
The strafing option almost never worked for me.
The lack of a second thumb stick on the PSP takes some getting used to for this type of game.
Sometimes your partner will get in your way or do stupid stuff (even though you can control them to a degree).
You have to rely on the AI's target lock for for shooting and sometimes it does not lock on even though you are facing your target (but that's not the norm).
Bad ending that leaves you hanging.
Pros:
A well executed game that is quite addicting given the obstacles the PSP controls presented its developers.
Good story.
Nice array of weapons and vehicles.
The top down 3rd person shooter is a nice change and it may work better for the PSP than 1st person shooters do.
Awesome bosses that are difficult to beat, but rewarding when you do beat them (be ready to hit replay a lot on some of the bosses).
Overall:
This is indeed a PSP classic that probably is one of the PSP's top 10 games. The game is dated and it takes some getting used to, but its pros far outweigh its cons in my opinion.

Even in 2021 the item is new as advertised
By Strider-RagnaroK on March 15, 2021
The item is completely new. It came nicely packaged, wrap in plastic, manual included and the UMD is new. One note I would like to mention is that the picture in the description is from the EU version, but the one that I was sent is the US version of the game. You can see the covers are different for both versions like I showed in my picture. It might cause a bit of confusion, but I'm letting you know the item they are selling is the US version.
