I posted the news yesterday of Metal Gear Acid 2 on PSP but Lik Sang (http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3756&lsaid=219793) did such a good article it deserves more exposure:

Last December Metal Gear Acid, the spin off strategy card game launched with the PSP. Now the sequel has arrived and all pre-ordered copies are already winging their way over to you right now, complete with the free "Solid Eye Tobidacid" device. As you can see this goes onto the front of your PSP, blocks outside light, and through two eye holes at the top, produces true 3D graphics. While it isn't suitable for use everywhere (you can turn 3D mode off), it's perfect for anywhere you have some privacy, and the effect is excellent.
The games theatre mode allows you to view video clips from special cards collected during gameplay in true 3D, which according to the official website "includes a sexy scene with Eva". In that spirit, Konami also buddied up with a Japanese men's magazine called Sabra, and their female idol models are featured exclusively in this Japanese release and you can check 'em out with the Solid Eye.
Moving onto the actual game, there's an all new story this time around, starting when Snake is suddenly taken captive by a man who calls himself an FBI agent. Coaxed into infiltrating a research facility, Snake soon finds a cleverly devised trap involving the U.S. military and Venus, a female secret agent who holds the key to top secret research and the third generation Metal Gear. All the while Snake’s mind is flooded with troubling thoughts as he tries to put together the pieces of his fateful past.
During gameplay you'll be able to switch between the two lead characters, Solid Snake and Teliko Venus. This is the first of many major changes the sequel brings with it, and to quote Konami's official website the new gameplay is "redefining Card Tactics for a new generation", and an "increased level of Intellectual Stimulation will accelerate production of Serotonin." In other words, MG Acid 2 will really get the brain juices flowing. Then at the same time the "dynamic gameplay will spark a dopamine rush of pleasure", and the 3D Solid Eye device "will cause noradrenalin wonder to rush through your body." Which I believe roughly translates to it'll be lots of fun and it looks damn cool too. Check out three full trailers and screenshots etc at Lik Sang (http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3756&lsaid=219793).
