I kinda want to get one, because of Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles, but I need more reason than that to get a console. What good games are out there for the Playstation Portable?

WHAT DO YOU LIKE?
I have about 20 games on my PSP yet I'm 100% certain as soon as I rattle them off someone will pop up saying "lol i think those games are garbage."
So if you tell me what type of games you enjoy playing, I can help you more efficiently.

Re: What reasons are there for buying a PSP?
Ugh, I posted this back in January but it still applies. All the load time issues have pretty much been fixed with the PSP slim.
Every Extend Extra is pretty fun as well as challenging. It's difficult enough deciding when to blow yourself up to score major points but the enemies fight back so you have to be quick.
Generations of Chaos (the second one, not the first): Fun strategy game. The battles are massive and there's lots of customization. Still, it's one of the few turn based strategy games around.
Gradius Collections: I'm a huge fan of Gradius and I must say that this is a godsend to fans. They actually used the ORIGINAL arcade versions which makes me foam at the mouth even more.
Metal Slug Anthology: I've played the Wii version so I assume the handheld one will be just as good. It comes out early next month so we'll see.
PoPoLoCrois: A fun, light hearted RPG that's a good break from the cliche lol anime epic with long haired villain and pretentious storyline garbage that's been flying around.
MegaMan Powered Up: Capcom did another great job with this. There are actually some EXCELLENT levels made with the editor and you can easily download them.
Platypus and Luxor: Two very fun SHMUPS but they were produced in such limited numbers they're almost impossible to find.
Lumines 1 + 2: I have to say I officially enjoy the series more than tetris. Yea...
LocoRoco: A little on the short side, but still fun.
Me and My Katamari: It might be a little hard to control at first, but this quickly becomes an addicting game.
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty/Vice City Stories: If you like GTA, you can't go wrong with this. That's about it.
Killzone Liberations: 10x better than the generic ps2 FPS game. I enjoyed this as it focuses on strategy and positioning over dumb luck and charging head on into enemy ranks.
Syphon Filter Dark Mirror: The ps2 Syphon Filter stunk but the PSP version revived the dying series in my eyes. The game actually uses more advanced features than most console shooters such as ragdoll (which is becomming more common nowadays) and advanced AI. The multiplayer is pretty good as well.
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops: A great addition to the MGS canon and a great game. Single player is fun, multiplayer is fun, and getting new characters through wireless internet hotspots and satellite GPS systems is downright cool.
Ex!t: Another fun platformer/puzzle game and it's pretty cheap... about $15 used.
Field Commander: The load times do a get bit tiresome at times, but it's a pretty hardcore turn based strategy game that pays homage to the Dai Senryaku series as well as have a few things in common with Advance Wars.
Ghosts n Goblins Supreme: Best GnG game yet (unless you also want to count the Maximo spinoffs).
Capcom Collections: It's amazing how 15 year old games are more fun than half of the games that come out today even on the other consoles. I think I play Street Fighter II for atleast an hour each day.
Other games that I must mention here:
Riviera: The Promised Land
Dragoneer's Aira
Jeanne D'Arc
Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology
Tokobot
Monster Hunter whatever
Platypus
Dungeons and Dragons Tactics
Ugh, there are others I have sitting around/forgot to mention but here's a list for starters.Last edited by marcus; 10-01-2007, 08:21 PM.

Re: What reasons are there for buying a PSP?
There are a lot of good choices for the PSP right now. Castlevania X Chronicles is a very good one, and I'm certainly not surprised that you'd get it, Dusk.
But, if you're looking for some other good PSP choices, try Ratchet and Clank. And yes, go for Monster Hunter Freedom 2--it seems to be very popular among the Pavvies.
And if you get a PS3, you can download PSOne games on it, plus ... ehh...
EDIT: I forgot only the white Slim PSPs have the feature where you can play PSP games on your TV set.Last edited by Misty; 10-02-2007, 12:32 AM.
