PSP Recommendation Thread

Its been about 4 years sense I have used this forum (PSP in general) due to my first PSP getting stolen :_:, anyway I'm back in the PSP world sort of haha.

Anyway I'm looking to feed my need for an RPG, considering I have an X-box 360 I have hardly seen any RPGs on it that really jump out to me mostly because I don't like the new setting in RPGs where you only really control the actions of one player and the rest of the party is AI driven or driven by preset actions you set up. I'm looking for turn based team fights (like FF7,FF8 ) that aren't really played out in real time. I have browsed a few of the RPGs on the PSP but really I never like listening to reviews I'd rather here from gamers. I have crisis core and I'm not enjoying it that much lol really burned out on FF7, I just like the early FF battle system.

Any suggestions ?

I'm also late to the party, picked up a psp this weekend along with: Crisis Core, Killzone, God of War (both), Metal Gear Solid (both) and Phantasy Star. So, I'll take the same recommendations as this guy.

Well, I guess this thread is more or less dead then.

I'm moving away from home for a while, so looking for the best psp games to make up for losing my beloved home console. I like games like Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Elder Scrolls, and Fable, huge games with coherent worlds that you enjoy spending lots of time in, and a nice mix of action, exploration, interaction, and story. Obviously the psp is far more limited in what it can achieve. So I guess I'm just looking for the best substitute.

So far I've played both God of Wars, and Killzone Liberation, which were all decent enough. But none of them lasted more than six hours in story mode, and they were all pretty much non-stop action. Resistance Retribution seems a bit more lengthy, but as a shooter it just feels like a huge step backwards in terms of enemy AI and level design, and the setting was pretty drab.

I've also played Crisis Core, and although as an FF7 fan I was motivated to finish the story, the actual gameplay itself was rather tedious and linear, as were the environments and non-speaking characters. Tales of Eternia seemed like a totally bog-standard psone rpg, and I didn't really care for the strategy gameplay of FF Tactics or Dissidia.

Still playing through the first MGS, but I don't like stealth games that much, and again, it's all mission based.

What I really want is an open world rpg with nice environments, a good story, and decent action. But failing that, I'll take any suggestions.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a lengthy and good RPG. I'm trying to decide between Valkyria Chronicles 2 (I played 1, I haven't finished it yet but I loved it) and Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Which one is longer and/or funner?

Hey guys! I just got a new charger for my super old PSP but I don't have any games. So I'm looking at getting some older games so I can save some money. I want games that play well on the PSP. I don't really want games that I can get on my Xbox or PS3. Old school RPGS or some kind of puzzle game. Would it be worth it to get Patapon over the 3rd or 2nd Patapon games? Any other old PSP games I should play let me know.chaoz-king

Hey guys! For the Welcome Back deal I just got Modnation Racers. I'm deciding between Killzone Liberation or Pursuit Force as my other game. Any suggestions?

Yeah I'm swaying more towards Pursuit Force just because of the mindless fun and because there doesn't seem to be many games like that one. Thanks for your feedback

This is weird but funny in its own way. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wfJWcaStEA And PSP/PSN needs to get playstation 2 games on the playstation network!!Ghalion83

Not for the PSP, they wouldn't work... Maybe for the Vita though.

Hey guys, I was wondering if the PSP has any Zelda-esque titles. At the moment I own Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and Jeanne d'Arc.forgot_it

You should check out Ys Seven and Oath in Felghana.
