Always on the cutting edge of hip (PSP Suggestion thread)

[Rase]

It really kinda depends on your tastes I'd think. Like FFT and Disgaea are well-crafted strategy RPGs, but they're also tedious and repetitive. Half Minute Hero and LocoRoco are fun and simplistic, but then there's not a lot of meat on the bone

My tastes are pretty varied. For handhelds it's mainly: "old-school" RPG's (Dragon Quest remakes, Etrian Odyssey), platformers, Castlevania-esque games, tactics games, and puzzlers. Basically every game on there I am fairly certain I will pick up at some point, because based on what I've seen/read they are all up my alley. Just looking for a solid start from the ones I threw up there.

Disgaea is fun, but if you have the PS2 versions (or DS version) I don't really see the point. Locoroco and Half Minute Hero have demos available on the PSN network so I would suggest downloading those and trying them out first.

Nope, don't have any Disgaea. Played some of the second one on a friends PS2. Also, good point on the demos, forgot they have those.

I would also suggest KH: Birth by Sleep and MGS: Peace Walker unless you hate the franchises of course, you could also do what I did and mainly use your PSP as a portable PS1 by downloading the PS1 FFs, Xenogears, Legacy of Kain, and Wild ARMS, and putting them on your PSP's Memory stick.

Maybe Peace Walker, but unless the KH game is nothing like the others in most every way I'll pass. How does downloading PS1 "Classics" work on a PSP? Would I need access to a PS3, or is it just doable through the system as long as I have a Memory stick?
