Miami Vice: The Game [PSP]

Miami Vice: The Game puts you in the shoes of either Sonny Crockett or Ricardo Tubbs, two undercover narcotics officers working for the Miami-Dade Police Department. Since this is based on the 2006 movie and not the 1980s TV series, the characters are modeled after Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx, though the voice actors who stand in for the stars, while total pros, don't sound a whole lot like them. After you save an informant from a vengeful associate in the opening level, you begin climbing up the drug food chain, gaining a reputation on the street and taking down cartels dealing in weed, meth, and of course, coke. There's a little double-crossing and a few portentous phone calls that go on during cutscenes, but Miami Vice is heavier on premise than it is on actual story, which is fine since it does such a great job with the atmosphere. The game takes itself quite seriously, just like the source material did, which is vital in keeping the game from coming off as a parody.

The locales you'll visit range from slick and glamorous to seedy and hazy, and they include a neon-soaked South Beach nightclub, a trailer park turned meth factory, a sun-bleached waterfront, and more. It's the attention to detail, though, that really sells Miami Vice--for example, the way your between-mission map looks like a nighttime helicopter flyby shot of downtown Miami or how the camera will shake when you sprint, as though it's trying to keep up. The soundtrack reinforces the detached sense of cool with underplayed keyboards and a lonely, bluesy electric guitar. There are some snags, such as the repetitive and unrelenting shouting of enemies and how the lighting in some levels can make it hard to see enemies or your weapon's laser sight, but this is a mostly great-looking game with an assertive sense of style.
