Loco Rocco 2 has a pricetag of $20, taht's the best value i've seen for a PSP game so far. the most expensive mobile phone game i've ever seen is $8 and my wife has been playing that game on her free mobile phone since december of '07.

i'm sorry, but even patapon which i believe to be a masterpiece can only be played so much. most ppl claim chains of olympus to be the best PSP game and being a fan of god of war, i could do w/out ever playing chains of olympus, it's not worth the discomfort of playing on a handheld for me.

i personally want a PSP, but it's too big and useless after so long. i've been dying for a good excuse to make the purchase.

at the rate things are and are going, the PSP will never (i'm hoping i'm wrong and real soon) outweigh the efficiency of playing cheap quality games with great value on a mobile phone, beit free mobile phones, smartphones, or iphone that we all have in our pockets or purses already. considering all of hte above are already have cameras, wmp or itunes support and from what i heard on some, incredible audio playback quality.

but anyway, saying anything other than "PSP rules!" will get me an infraction by shin-ra. god forbid forums are for sharing one's opinion.

this thread is about sony's responses to mobile phone gaming and sony has no choice but to shrug it off... what else can they do?
work harder at making sure their product competes? step it up sony!!! i want to believe in you

Im sorry but on my mobile carrier the games go up to $9.99 and up last I checked... $4.00 if you agree to pay a monthly fee to play the game...

I have to say I thought it was pretty cool to go to my ps3 rip a cd and then copy the cd album directly to my psp using the ps3 controller charge cable.

I also carry my psp in my shirt pocket at work... The psp 3000 is smaller lighter, and the disc tray simplified...

I dunno I havent played all 423 psp games.. as I am a new psp user, but the ones I have played ive enjoyed..

Syphon Filter Logans Shadow
Star Ocean 1
Phantasy Star Portable
Harvey Birdman
Rtype Command

I actually hated Patapon, of course Ive never liked rytmetric games...

Also you can transfer ps 1 games *from the store* off of your ps3 to your psp I did this with Suikoden and Syphon Filter, and you can transfer the saves.

Portable Jrpgs I consider a blessing.. lets just say when I turn my psp but a few weeks ago it was a religious experience for me.

But that was me...

Though I made 2 mistakes I let the gamestop lady con me into the large bundle with a movie I didn't want, and a small thumbstick, which I have discovered im going to be needed a much bigger one

Here is the list of psp games that I painstankly compiled..
