    This is the best list of good PSP games I have seen on teh internets so far:

    [anchan.an.ohost.de]

    Copy here:
    [img28.imageshack.us]

    As for my recommendations:

    1. Lumines
    2. Wipeout Pure
    3. Burnout Legends
    4. God of War: Chains of Olympus
    5. Super Stardust Portable
    6. Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony
    7. Tekken Dark Resurrection
    8. Daxter
    9. Crush
    10. Mercury

    Most of those are from early PSP era - and they still are the best there are. Which tells you a lot about PSP lineup, by the way.

    Not sure if they all have PSPGo versions, though.

    @Benny: What? Im not sure I understand how you phrased you question there.

    I have 2 PSPs, and a ton of UMDs. The GO is a waste. Youre stuck only buying games from Sony's online store, and only paying the prices Sony dictates on the limited variety of games available. Why do that when you can have a regular PSP and buy used games or games on sale for cheap. Trade with friends and borrow their games. So much more flexibility

    @Altima NEO: You have two PSPs too? Did you get the second one for the same reason as me? That is, so I could keep playing emulators on the first one and play new games on the second?

    Of course, I got the first one for 60 bucks, so it wasn't like I bought two full priced systems.

    @Altima NEO: Well I own the PSP2000 as well as the Go. The PSP2000 fits in my jeans pocket but makes me look like I am hung like a Tauren. The Go fits perfectly and works well as it was intended. Sure I may miss out on some games here and there on the Go, but here are my reasons why you should not dismiss the Go entirely:

    -Ability to connect a bluetooth headset
    -Ability to use a PS3 Sixaxis controller to revisit some old games.

    Those in itself has made my PSP experience much better. The fact that I could use my own NON Sony branded bluetooth for Skype was excellent.

    The PS3 controller paired with the Video cables allowed me to bring "Console" like gaming to a hotel room. I was able to play FF7 again like how I did 10 years ago.

    Sure the Go has HUGE disadvantages... but think hard... the disadvantages that the Go has are all easily remedied if Sony just pulled their head out of the ass. Get what it takes to get all PSP games on the PSN, lower the retail price to be the same as the PSP3000 and drop the PSP3000 down a bit, and finally sell an accessory to play UMD discs.

    Perhaps this glimpse into the library of the PSP will finally quiet those who loudly proclaim that the system "has no quality games."

    @Grooveraider: The sentiment has definitely toned down over the years, but it seems as if the PSP has the least discussed software library of any system (outside of major games like GoW, KH, and FF).

    It's more indifference than anything.

    Does anyone else find themselves subconsciously tipping the PSP whilst playing? I think these games would make marvellous additions to wiiware (is that even possible? Who publishes them?) #locorocomidnightcarnival

    @tangerine: from Sony's website:

    In 1982, Sony created a catchphrase and an additional logo to enhance the company's overall CI. When Morita was shown the design for this "S mark" logo, he thought that when people saw it for the first time, they would wonder what it represented. He reasoned that a brief, catchy description would be needed to explain the "S mark." The phrase he came up with was, "It's a Sony!" This, he believed, would add impact to the advertisement. Thereafter, all Sony TV commercials ended with the "S mark," followed by a voice-over saying, "It's a Sony!" This unique combination of picture and sound quickly became recognized around the world as a unique Sony trait.

    I guess it's not recognized by everyone. #locorocomidnightcarnival

    Well, hopefully they fixed the problems that were in LR1 that were absent in LR2 for LR2 being quite a different game. Though, everything in the PSP series has been quite enjoyable, I still have my LocoRoco UMD swagbag around here someplace, and can't wait for another one of those "is Locoroco racist" discussions...

    Though, maybe this time SCEE will be able to keep their beta version off of the internet before release.
