Line 11:
Note: While this game is canon, it is considered an [[Obvious Beta]]. ''Portable Ops'' was succeeded by ''[[Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker|Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker]]''.

* [[A Father to His Men]]: Snake plays this straight, and the [[Big Bad]] does a twisted parody of this.▼
* [[And I Must Scream]]: In the mission where Snake has to do reconnaissance at the Soviet Patrol Base and recover a launch schedule for a stolen American weapon, eavesdropping on the Soviet officer will have him state his fear and desire to flee, but finding himself unable to before questioning what is the power Gene possessed, implying that Gene's [[Compelling Voice]] also leaves the soldiers fully aware of emotions such as fear, but completely incapable to reacting to said emotions via methods like fleeing from the peninsula.
* [[Art Shift]]: The cutscenes are similar in style to a black and white graphic novel, except animated, and work surprisingly well in lieu of actual ingame cutscenes. Worked so well, in fact, that the very next PSP Metal Gear game, [[Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker]], used this in the majority of their cutscenes, as well.
Line 45 ⟶ 43:
* [[Fake Defector]]: Subverted with the FOX Unit. The CIA intended to have the FOX Unit fake defection to the Soviet Union so they could supply the ICBMG to the Soviets and thus have the CIA maintain all the power it gained during the [[Cold War]]. However, this plot was undone by the Pentagon (of whom {{spoiler|Cunningham}} was a plant to), where FOX was to launch the ICBMG at Soviet Russia in order to tarnish the CIA's reputation. It's even further subverted when Gene intended to nuke America with the ICBMG. See [[Gambit Pileup]] below.
* [[Fan Disservice]]: Big Boss does wind up naked at one point, but the circumstances and art style drain all the possible [[Fan Service]] out of the moment.
▲* [[A Father to His Men]]: Snake plays this straight, and the [[Big Bad]] does a twisted parody of this.
* [[Flag Bikini]]: Kind of: The European Versions of Portable Ops and especially Portable Ops Plus have soldiers who wear uniforms that are designed to resemble the flag of each respective country: UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Norway, Denmark, Portugal, Sweden, Greece, Finland, and the Netherlands.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: Gene's speech as well as Elisa's precognition. See [[Harsher in Hindsight]] for the former.
Line 90 ⟶ 89:
* [[Start of Darkness]]: Here's where Big Boss's disillusionment with the shabby and disgusting treatment of soldiers by their ungrateful governments really starts to solidify.
* [[Taking the Bullet]]: {{spoiler|Jonathan does this with Big Boss when the latter is fired at during a mass-hysteria riot incited by Gene, resulting in both a chest and a head wound, making his death inevitable.}}
* [[Taking You with Me]]: {{spoiler|Cunningham attempts to do this to Naked Snake after the latter defeated him and refused his offer to get on the chopper to go home to allow the Pentagon to continue their conspiracy... by attempting to [[
* [[The Rival]]: Gene sees Snake as one.
* [[Timed Mission]]: Towards the end, when you are infiltrating the [[Very Definitely Final Dungeon]].
