With five stages comprising of twenty levels to play through, this is a game that will certainly give you value for money. Legends is essentially a mash-up of the first three Burnout games. All of the modes from the previous games feature in Legends including World Tour, Eliminator, and Face-Off, the latter giving users the chance to win legendary cars.
The best modes, however, have to be Road Rage and Pursuit. Road Rage requires players to drive badly, earning points for causing other cars to crash, while Pursuit sees gamers taking control of a cop car as they take down drivers.
There are 95 cars to unlock and race with in Burnout Legends, all of which are from Burnout 2 and 3. If you lose, however, then you lose your collector car!
This version is actually a sequel to the original Little Big Planet and sees Sackboy taking a trip around the world on his holidays. From Persia to Australia, and the Alpine Mountains to China, Sackboy meets different native characters from each of the countries he visits who help him on his many adventures.
There are 23 main levels and 14 exciting mini levels to play through as Sackboy collects prize bubbles containing everything from stickers to new costumes.
One of the best parts of this game was the level creator, where players could make their own levels for Sackboy to traverse through. Gamers could upload these for other users to play all over the globe, but sadly, the Little Big Planet servers closes forever in They might claim that size matters, but this portable powerhouse is an absolute belter of a game, proving that handheld titles can be just as exciting as their home console counterparts.
Once again, the PSP provides stunning graphics. And despite being interupted from their holidays, Ratchet and Clank set about rescuing a captured girl and dealing with the Technomites with a smile on their faces. Upgrade weapons, acquire armour, and work your way through tonnes of exciting levels alongside lots of memorable characters that never fail to pull you back into the game time and time again.
Size Matters gained the accolade of handheld of the month back in with critics loving the pint-sized adventure and some of the new features it boasted. I love Ratchet and Clank, and the formula that make this series great has proven successful once again!
This game looks superb on the PSP, giving us yet another example of how incredible and ahead of its time this device truly is. There are eight teams in Wipeout Pulse, and each ship has an energy field that protects the ship from bashes and crashes.
If your energy runs out, then your ship explodes! The game only features twelve tracks, but players can race these both forwards and backwards, essentially providing a mirror mode and taking the number to Up to 8 people could battle it out online using some of the best weapons known to gaming-kind, stealthily moving through trenches and battling it out on dark and shady-looking maps.
The multiplayer servers are now sadly offline, but players can still enjoy the epic story mode in this game. With Resistance 2 in the disc tray, gamers could fire up Retribution and play it using the PS3 controller. The DualShock rumble worked perfectly too! This is a game where you have to be present and alert at all times, a title where you WILL die a lot and have to come back to the same point and repeat the process all over again.
It requires more patience than a Christmas shopper in a Best Buy queue and the planning that you need to put into taking out some of the bigger foes is tantamount to military strategy. That being said, the feeling that you get when you finally bring down the big monsters and stand victorious is probably up there with winning an Olympic medal. As the player, you are tasked with moving Jeanne and her team through a very different looking France as she battles demon soldiers that are fighting on the side of the British empire.
Wielding a sacred armlet that grants her special powers, Jeanne must push back the forces of evil in a turn-based RPG that has surprises hidden around every corner. The gameplay is incredibly unique and the battles are very well thought out. It has one of the greatest plotlines of any handheld game and makes all of the after school clubs you went to as a kid seem boring beyond belief!
You must unlock the mysteries of the Dark Hour, a period between the end of one day and the beginning of the next where one can reach a world filled with evil monsters. This game is an absolute belter from beginning to end and is and one of my favourite RPG titles for the console. The PSP also lets you fight as a male or female protagonist which is a nice touch.
This game starts where the last title left off, giving you a chance to cross the Rainbow Bridge and discover the secrets and hidden perils of a brand new land. Can you remember Donkey Konga for the GameCube?
Patapon 3 is a little like that, with the gameplay of Lemmings and the graphics of Viewtiful Joe. The Patapons march in time to the drum beats that you play out by pressing the PSP face buttons, all the while moving towards battles with the seven evil arch-fiends in a 2D world filled with exciting obstacles and rich scenery that you might not expect from a side-scrolling game. This Patapon title is definitely less confusing compared to some of its predecessors and mega fun once you get into the swing of things.
This time Daxter is going solo and working his way through the game as a bug exterminator while searching for his buddy, Jak. Loco Roco 2 sees gamers once again taking control of a colourful planet filled with critters. You can use certain buttons to turn the planet and others to organise the Loco Roco as they move through the different areas. Some of the world backgrounds will be familiar to players who enjoyed the first game, though there are lots of new abilities and characters in this popular sequel.
The Loco Roco can now swim underwater and squeeze through tiny crevices, along with lots of other exciting skills that you can uncover as the game goes along. Sega rarely disappoints when it comes to games, and Valkyria Chronicles II is no exception.
This game stays true to the series and carries on from where Valkyria Chronicles left off perfectly. Set in E. C and two years after the second European War, this title revolves around a group of cadets from a military academy and their mission to prevent a bunch of rebels from carrying out a terrible ethnic cleansing plot.
All five classes and the original BLiTZ combat system feature from the original game, as well as new never-before-seen classes and abilities that you can discover as you progress through the game.
If you like the sound of a turn-based shoot-em-up that requires teamwork and a mind for strategy, then give Valkyria Chronicles II a bash! Crisis Core married role-playing features that we know and love from previous FF titles with real-time combat in open-world areas, usually kicking monster butt and generally being a boss with big weapons and magical abilities.
This game is set seven years before FF7 and ends just before the start of said game. It sold well over 3 million copies and has secured itself as one of the best PSP games of all time. What is better than stealing cars, shooting bad guys, and generally being a bad-ass gangster while sitting on your sofa at home?
Vice City Stories is the tenth game in the GTA series and one of the last to use famous voices for its main characters. Vice City Stories really shows what the PSP is capable of and is a feat of games engineering for this tiny portable console.
This is the last title in the Syphon Filter series, and it both plays and looks like a home console title. Sony has brought a lot of stealth-shooters to its various consoles over the years, and Syphon Filter was always one of my favourites. Enemies react realistically to gunfire too, providing users with a much more immersive adventure. Players control Gabe Logan as they work their way through this third-person title.
Whereas before when Ratchet was the main playable character and Clank was used to solve puzzles, our robotic secret agent friend now has the limelight and can be moved freely in an adventure of his own. His tuxedo has a number of secret gadgets just like our very own Mr Bond , that Clank can use on his quest, and rhythmic sections where the player has to press a series of buttons to sneak past enemies will test even the most advanced gamers skills.
You can also play as Ratchet and Captain Qwark, and the Gadgebots also make an appearance — looks like the whole gang is back together! I was hooked on Castlevania when I bought it for my classic GameBoy, but having a colour version with kick-ass monsters and far richer environments to wander through trumps my old two-tone version every time! Castlevania is one of those gaming titles that have and always will withstand the test of time, and Castlevania — The Dracula X Chronicles provides gamers with a solid adventure title in a world where nothing is as it seems.
The Dracula X Chronicles is a 2. Any game that features manga-style fighting characters and Mickey Mouse is going to rank highly because of its sheer absurdity, which is why Kingdom Hearts — Birth By Sleep takes the Number 4 spot! This game has so many Disney references and locations inside it that you might be forgiven for thinking that you were playing Castle Of Illusion one of our best SEGA Game Gear games of all time! Mickey stars as the ruler of Disney castle and a Keyblade apprentice to the sorcerer Yen Sid.
We find Gabe Logan once again using a combination of stealth and "run-and-gun" gameplay as he is called into action when a dangerous new technology is hijacked by a criminal extremist group. In a story that takes him from the depths of the Indian Ocean to the deserts of the Middle East, Gabe is faced with the possibility that his long time partner, Lian Xing is a double agent.
Logan's Shadow is complete with a variety of combat mechanics including the ability to force enemies into cover with "blind-fire", an advanced melee system that allows Gabe to use enemies as human shields, and degree underwater combat.

The soundtrack is exceptional and combines nostalgia from Final Fantasy VII with some modern tracks that form a wonderful union. Crisis Core does exhibit minor issues. One of these issues would be the length of the game. Unfortunately, it only lasts about 11 hours, which can seem brisk to some. Grand Theft Auto Vice City was an instant classic when it released back in At the time, the series had been building up steam at an incredible pace. As the fourth instalment in the franchise Vice City is widely regarded as the game that made the Grand Theft Auto franchise what it is today.
Vice City is a fictional city that draws inspiration from Miami. Truthfully, it would have been impossible for Rockstar Games to pick a better location to adapt. Vice City Stories takes place two years prior to Vice City. In many ways it acts as a prequel to the original.
Several of the same characters return as do the cast of voice actors. The series has always been known for its use of Hollywood stars and this game is no different. The story follows brothers Victor and Lance as they aim to build their criminal empire in Vice City. Both featured briefly in the original Vice City so its nice to see this game expand on their origin story. The open world environment that makes Grand Theft Auto games so unique is back once more. Players can move with freedom at their own pace.
Beating the game does not feel like a chore due to this non-guided progression. Debate surrounded the original game due to the glorification of violence, crime and drugs.
It also came under fire for its racial profiling. Much of that is still present in Vice City Stories making it strictly for adults. At the peak of the street racing craze birthed from the immense success of The Fast and Furious movie franchise, Need for Speed was the lead racing video game.
As the ninth installment in the Need for Speed franchise, Most Wanted is an incredibly polished racing game. There is a ton of content to delve into. The story mode is superb and, as the title suggests, the goal is to become the most wanted street racer in the city of Rockport. You can also play online via the PSP to much enjoyment. The online feature is as great as one could expect from a portable online experience. There are some issues regarding connectivity however these are minor concerns in the grand scheme of things.
The graphics and car variety combine to provide the best aspects of this game. The roster of luxury cars and exotic streetcars is a blast to dig into. Most Wanted offers some great customization options. You car will develop in performance and aesthetic as you progress in the game.
The graphics are gritty with dark undertones that play well with the theme of street racing. The controls are also extremely intuitive for a handheld racing game. In fact many believe the handheld version to be superior to the console version due to the controls alone. Unfortunately, the enemy AI in this iteration is highly questionable in their actions.
In this case it would be the police department. Once the cops are on your tail it is game over for most. This essentially punishes the player for playing the game properly. As the sixth instalment in the franchise, expectations were naturally high. Birth by Sleep continues the trend of prequels exclusively made for the PSP.
This game is a direct narrative prequel to the original Kingdom Hearts. Luckily, there is enough innovation introduced to the combat system to sidestep any notions of stagnation. There is no denying that the loading screens are painfully slow. Secondly, the dialogue is rather weak. Throughout the play through interactions are few and far between. When the rare portion of dialogue appears the disappointment is palpable. These are minor letdowns in the grand scheme of things.
There is so much to love here, from the stunning vibrant visuals to the endearing original music; Birth by Sleep is one of the best PSP games around. The unique three-character setup is also quite enjoyable.
The ability to control three characters offers distinct gameplay variety. The action-filled gameplay is relentless. The new features such as Focus and Dimension Link add much needed depth and make this game so much more than a typical hack and slash. Ultimately, Birth of Sleep succeeds in creating new Kingdom Hearts fans. Its accessibility as a prequel means that this is the perfect Kingdom Hearts game to discover the beloved franchise.
As with any game not designed for a specific device, concerns arise regarding its quality. First and foremost there are some aspects exclusive to the PSP version. Kitana and Jax are noteworthy additions seeing as they are franchise favorites. There is also a new playable game mode only available in Unchained.
The mode is titled Endurance and players must last as long as possible against a wave of never ending opponents. Although the presence of an online feature is a welcome component, its quality is rather disappointing.
Anyone who plays even a few fights online will notice consistent frame dropping and lag. Stage interaction not only adds another layer to fighting strategy but it also provides some laugh-inducing moments as players lose to the stage as opposed to their enemy. Performing a fatality remains a highly entertaining way of proving your superiority over your opponent. The plot is characteristically thin for a Mortal Kombat game.
It is a good thing that the game emphasizes combat strategy over storytelling. When it comes to quality racing games, Wipeout is often overlooked as an industry-leading franchise. Yet, Sony Interactive Entertainment has continued to publish racing games imbued with such unique gameplay.
It turns out a portable racing experience perfectly suits the gameplay Wipeout is notorious for. Wipeout Pure was released as a launch title for the PSP. Players would take control of airships and race them in the anti-gravity racing league called FX The racing mechanics are what makes this game excel above the level of an average racing game.
For starters, players must choose the airship that matches their style of racing. Each of the eight ships has been imbued with different racing characteristics. These variations in speed and strength offer a ton of gameplay variety. Wipeout Pure racing utilizes weapons and shields. Weapons can be used against other racers on the track, while shield levels determine how many hits your ship can take. If your shield levels hit zero your ship will explode, eliminating you from the race.
Track design is one of the standout features. The futuristic atmosphere is well executed on every track. With an extra purchase, players could gain access to new ships and tracks.
The graphics and high-speed gameplay are the two strongest aspects of the game. Everything pops on screen thanks to the cutting-edge graphics. The gameplay ensures that players will be coming back for more. As a Sony exclusive franchise, Jak and Daxter games are always highly anticipated releases.
This spinoff game featuring Daxter in the starring role was the first of the franchise to be released on a handheld console. Daxter sets out on a quest to find his lost companion Jak. Fans of the franchise will be delighted to learn that the events of the game tie into the mainline series. The timing is tricky to grasp as it takes place after the events presented during the opening of Jak II.
A common concern for portable games is the intuitiveness of the controls. This is especially true when a franchise moves from home console to portable play. Luckily there are no issues in relation to control mechanics. They feel responsive as can be. Jumping from ledge to ledge and crouching around passages can be performed smoothly. Another aspect that enhances the control mechanics is the camera. The camera flows quite smoothly which gives the player a clear view of the surroundings.
The graphics are fantastic for a portable iteration of the franchise. In addition, the world is imbued with a ton of color and personality which makes the game a joy to play. God of War is yet again another Sony exclusive series that has been on the receiving end of high praise. Control Spartan warrior Kratos as he is tasked with hunting down one of the Olympian Gods.
