subject: As The Psp Bows Out, We Think Of The Top Rated Psp Video Game Titles [print this page] It has been an amazing 7 many years since the PSP first launched in Japan. The Playstation Vita will be released in a little over a months time and for many that will spell the end of the PSP's wonderful tenure as an excellent hand held system.
Now is the great time to consider about the great titles that the PSP introduced us and countdown the ten top PSP video games we have enjoyed over the last seven many years.
10. Wipeout Pure. This game was with us at the very beginning of it all and all this time after it is nonetheless in my top ten list of games released on the system. The futuristic racer has been a favourite of many for years. Right from the time it was first introduced, long before the PSP even existed. Rather than simply racing you also have the chance to destroy your competitors and collect power ups. This is an fantastic combat racing game.
9. Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories. This was like each other Grand Theft Auto game in that it was controversial. It was also like other Grand Theft Autos in that it was a lot of fun. Whether you were following the orders of the Liberty City crime bosses or just heading out on a mindless rampage this was a lot of fun.
8. Lumines. This is the second launch title in our list. Back then it seemed like the system would be full of amazing games. It is a little disappointing when you think that two launch titles made it to a final top ten list but in fairness this is another outstanding game. A bizarre puzzler that is hard to describe. It would be even more challenging to clarify why it is so much fun.
7. Sid Meier's Pirates. A popular PC game that was ported to the PSP. It crossed over well and was a very engaging technique game. You made your dwelling pillaging and sailing the globe with your conquered ships in tow behind you. Excellent fun.
6. Star Ocean: Second Evolution. This was an superb role playing game. Set in the future and in a far-away galaxy this game had an outstanding narrative, exceptional characters and amazing graphics. Fit to grace anyones PSP top ten list.
5. Star Wars Unleashed. This action game was fun for anyone, whether you are a Star Wars fan or not you should check this game out. Excellent fun.
4. Tekken Dark Resurrection. If you've played Tekken before in any of its other versions you know how fun it is. It made the jump from home console to portable system very well.
3. Grand Theft Auto : China Town Wars. The 2nd Grand Theft Auto game in our top ten. Just as much fun as the other but with a superior account line.
2. Metal Gear Solid : Peace Walker. This is not just a good game for a portable system, this is a good game full stop. The Metal Gear Solid franchise is a set of video games that has been brilliant for years. Right since Solid Snake first made an appearance on the Original NES console they have been very popular games. A Metal Gear Solid game on the PSP was sure to be a hit.
1. Final Fantasy 7 : Crisis Core. The original Final Fantasy 7 is my favourite game of all time. It was in contrast to any game I had ever played before or since. It was by far the best game on the original Playstation and the announcement of a sequel on the PSP would have been ample for me to buy the console alone. Quite frankly, if this was the only game released on the PSP I would even now think about it as money well spent.
