The greatest thing ever about the early Syphon Filter games is that they were developed by the exact same team who did Bubsy 3d. Another useles tidbit- the original Syphon Filter started out as Bubsy 4.

So one of my favorite PSP franchises started in the Psone as a sequel of Bubsy 3d?

After SF1 the series went downhill.The PSP games are awesome.

Basically, yeah. The team made a Bubsy 4 prototype and showed it to Sony to basically say "This is what we're capable of when we're not being rushed" and Sony said "Well we already have Crash Bandicoot to fill in the mascot platformer role, how about you guys make a stealth game?" so they revamped the Bubsy 4 engine into Syphon Filter

Another one of the great things about the first Syphon Filter (not sure if it applied to subsequent titles) was the hours I spent just tasering baddies. Hold down the shock button long enough and voila - human torch. Oh man that was fun.
