Saving in Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror (PSP) – Checkpoints Only

You cannot manually save. Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror on PSP uses checkpoint-only saves.

How It Works

• The game auto-saves at designated checkpoints (usually after completing an objective or clearing an area).
• A "Saving..." icon appears in the corner—do not power off until it disappears.
• If you quit mid-mission, you restart at the last checkpoint.

Tips

• Play in sessions long enough to reach the next checkpoint.
• Keep the PSP charged or on AC—battery death = lost progress since last checkpoint.
• No memory card management needed; saves write to the game's dedicated save slot automatically.

This was common in PSP-era action games to maintain tension and pace.
