Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2008 8:40 pm Post subject: Recommend to me, for PSP |
|
|
I have recently come into possession of a silver slimline PSP! Something I have been interested in for some time, but never thought I would have one of. Accordingly, I haven't really been keeping up as it were, so I don't have any idea really what's available. It came with God of War which is quite delightful, but other than that (and trying hard to find a copy of Crush), I've pretty much got no idea.
So! Does anybody have any PSP experiences they would like to share, or games they would like to recommend? I'm pretty much open to anything at the moment, so feel free to carve anything you want onto the tabula rasa that is my PSP. Thanks! _________________

Crush is a nice concept, in a game that's more boring and frustrating than fun, with an absolutely godawful presentation trying to tie together some puzzles into a narrative.
(But then I hated the God of War demo too, and I don't even mind the PS2 versions. You know that demo actually gave me motion sickness? Totally bizarre.)
Things I do like, which have made my purchase worthwhile:
Every Extend Extra
Patapon
LocoRoco
Final Fantasy Tactics
Ridge Racer's good but ultimately very repetitive (still, it's somehow much better than Outrun 2006)
Other people like Jeanne D'Arc, Mega Man Powered Up, Lumines and Dracula X Chronicles, but I'm kicking myself for having wasted money on each of them. I'm sort of neutral on Exit, and I thought Gurumin had enough personality that I bought it from the Playstation Network, just to have a decent diversion available on the memory stick.
The next five responses will likely be telling you to hack it. I haven't and I don't plan to. _________________ "Worlds turn the new machine to thee. To thee. Though, thine the new machine space."

Gitaroo Man needs love badly!
Seriously though, it's a fantastic little game. Tough but rewarding. _________________ Signature:

If you're the kind of person who loves tactics-style RPGs and doesn't mind a bizarre game convention or two, the Metal Gear AC!D games are pretty fun.
Lumines was a pleasant diversion for, like, an hour. _________________ Okay! |

Man, every ridge racer game is ultimately repetitive. I didn't find RR psp to be all that different from that perspective. It's the game that I bought the system for and, while probably not worth just having it for the system would have been enough, it was a good choice of "only game to play on a system for a long while". I think it's a better RR game than most people give it credit for, and it's an even better game if you've missed much of the series (many of the levels are pulled from other games as a sort of greatest hits of tracks) _________________ “The average man has a secret desire to be a swaggering, drunken, fighting, raping swashbuckler.”

I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it. I did, and played it quite a bit. But then I got to the point where I still hadn't finished the game and was wondering why I was still doing the same stuff over and over. _________________ "Worlds turn the new machine to thee.

I want to get that FF Dissidia when it comes out. Heard Crisis Core is good too. |
