PlayStation Portable Reviews

Half-Minute Hero By Kaleb Rutherford \| 10/31/09 Tired of the same old boring Role Playing Games on your sophisticated PlayStation Portable? Just looking for something original to play? XSeed, Marvelous Entertainment, and Developer Opus Studio have just the game for you--Half-Minute Hero. While the game won't impress you visually, it more than... Read More	Disgaea 2 By Kaleb Rutherford \| 08/10/09 While there may be several strategy RPGs out there, only a few franchises stand head-and-shoulders above the rest. One is Final Fantasy Tactics, which was really the first title to bring the genre into the mainstream. Another beloved franchise is Disgaea, the quirky Japanese strategy game that... Read More
Jeanne D'Arc By Kaleb Rutherford \| 09/01/07 The handheld console wars have been seen as many to be a battle that is all but over--with the Nintendo DS taking a very large lead that Sony could probably never overcome. I personally enjoy both platforms and feel they have enough different games to make each of them a worthy experience... Read More	Brooktown High By Kaleb Rutherford \| 06/19/07 For some, High School was an awesome four year experience that people fondly look back upon. For others, those memories aren't exactly the most pleasant. No matter what your experience was during these four years, Konami has unleashed a way for you to go back and relive High School... Read More
Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure By Kaleb Rutherford \| 03/19/07 In the spirit of a great Japanese Anime, the PSP is finally the home of a great new Action RPG that is cute, cuddly, and ready to drain your PSP of its batteries time and time again. As 2007 continues, Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure, proves yet again that in the handheld wars, Sony's... Read More	Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters By Kaleb Rutherford \| 02/11/07 One of the most beloved Sony franchises didn't exist prior to the PlayStation 2. But that didn't stop Sony and Insomniac from teaming up to deliver on nearly yearly releases to the franchise. Each one was different and brought something unique to the table that made it just as fun as the... Read More
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance By Kaleb Rutherford \| 12/01/06 A few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised with the release of X-Men Legends. Featuring some of the best X-Men characters, gamers were given a very enjoyable Action Role Playing Game. Developer Raven Software next decided to improve the gameplay and gave us X-Men Legends II: Rise of... Read More	WTF: Work Time Fun By Kaleb Rutherford \| 12/01/06 When a game is called WTF, a certain “What the...” phrase comes to mind. That phrase is also a very good way to explain what WTF is all about. WTF: Work Time Fun is one of those titles from Japan that would have never seen the light of day in North America years ago. But now a... Read More
Avatar: The Last Airbender By Daniel "Monk" Pel... \| 12/01/06 Taking place sometime after the first season of the television program, Avatar: The Last Airbender (the game) puts players in the role of the young man who is considered the reincarnation of the only one who can unite the factioned elements, bring peace to the world, and bake a nice cake. Okay,... Read More	Killzone: Liberation By Daniel "Monk" Pel... \| 11/02/06 Don’t go in expecting a rehash of the PS2 game that precedes Killzone: Liberation. Firstly, the perspective has shifted, where instead of a first person shooter players are given a third person perspective (almost top-down, but not quite) of the battlefield. This completely alters the gameplay,... Read More
Mercury Meltdown By Kaleb Rutherford \| 10/29/06 After the launch of the PlayStation Portable, Sony’s handheld went through several software droughts. When a game was released, it was largely unpopular and lacked anything that made people want to purchase a PSP. The original Mercury was one title that proved to be different from... Read More	Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception By Kaleb Rutherford \| 10/29/06 Namco has always delivered with its Ace Combat series. Seen before on a variety of consoles, Ace Combat finally arrives on the powerful PlayStation Portable. While the game is not quite as visually appealing as its PlayStation 2 counterpart, Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception looks and plays... Read More
Loco Roco By Daniel "Monk" Pel... \| 10/29/06 If you own a PSP, you need to buy LocoRoco. This is exactly the type of title that could be done on any other platform, but is a perfect fit for Sony’s handheld. It is a little quirky, has fun with itself, and has enough difficulty to allow both “hardcore” and casual gamers to enjoy it. LocoRoco... Read More	NBA 07 By Kaleb Rutherford \| 10/06/06 With all of the issues Sony has had developing a good NBA game on the PSP, one would think they might quit trying. However, never content to give up, Sony delivered the third incarnation of the NBA series to the PlayStation portable. And while it is an improvement over the other two titles... Read More
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories By Emily Rutherford \| 11/28/05 Rockstar has made a name for itself ever since Grand Theft Auto III was released on the PlayStation 2. Since that time, two follow-ups to GTA III have been released to massive sales and a lot of controversy. Now entering the handheld arena for the first time with a serious GTA title, Rockstar... Read More	X-Men Legends II: Rise of the Apocalypse By Michael Toller \| 11/26/05 When I first heard about X-Men Legends, I was very excited. This was the first X-Men game that actually allowed players to use the various Mutant powers at any time. It seemed too good to be true. When the title was released, it stayed in my GameCube for months and months.... Read More
