Gods Eater Burst - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 71
Of course, the game doesn’t ask you to kill or eat Gods. But in the virtual realm inside the game, humanity is being hunted down by an organism called the Aragami. It devours life for its survival and can assume different forms when needed. Only very few human remains, and under Fenrir, they intend to rebuild the world. The game is all about killing critters and gathering loot. It offers great ideas in the process, including complex bullet creation and transforming weapon model. Unfortunately, the game lacks enough variety. Additionally, Aragami may cowardly flee the combat, giving you hollow victories sometimes. Although there are better titles out there, the game does feel interesting for specific audience

Ys I & II Chronicles - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 74
Overall, the story, graphics, gameplay and all, it plays like Ys I. If you know the first game, playing the second one is easy. Perhaps, the only big addition is Adol's ability to use magic, which would be really handy in his perilous journey to defeat enemies that he will encounter. The sequel shows that you can still use the original recipe of RPG plus a few nice things, to give you something that really worth your time and money. RPG fanatics should have this game. Unfortunately, the lack of direction tend to hold Ys II back, although it won't break the game.

You may think that "if ain't broke don't fix it!".But it may not apply with Ys series, the Ys chronicles show that bringing a classic series to a brand new platform can be something good. The combination of original gameplay, fantastic retro feel and also superb soundtrack make it a must for any PSP owner.

Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together PSP Game Review

SCORE: 86
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together can be the greatest classic remake I've ever found. It has an excellent source material along with how the developers address all sticking points that tend to frustrate me these years. For starters, you may find it an impeccable piece of prgramming, which is a welcome change to previous English releases of the series. Its World system essentially changes the principal nature of Tactics Ogre.
It is formerly a game that entails difficult decision-making, but now it's more about exploring the outcome. It may seem like a subtle decision, but it is definitely a meaningful one. And it means for about 15 years after its debt, Tactics Ogre can still be considered slightly ahead of the normal curve. You will feel that its narration is a notch above the competition. The developers are finally able to to put the game mechanics on par with the beautiful storyline, in fact, it can be considered as new standard in developing a remake. The game is still highly faithful to its original storyline, while making it more engrossing and deeper that the previous titles. The game may not be for everyone, even so any serious fan of strategy RPG games should not miss this excellent remastered masterpiece.

Shift Extended - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 81

SHIFT is an interesting game featuring a bit of humor and crafty puzzles using a single, inventive mechanic. It isn’t without its flaws, but if the $3.99 price tag for only a few hours of play doesn’t scare you off, I’d definitely recommend checking it out. SHIFT is unique due to its inversion core mechanic. Its monochrome visuals are essentially critical to its gameplay execution. The bumpers will reverse gravity and the subject's alignment to everything around him. You can shift from white to black and the other way around, as the results platforms can become pit and things that are previously unreachable can be reached easily. I complete the whole 120 rooms in one day and the real challenge will appear in the last 30 rooms. In fact, you can finish the first 70 rooms in an hour or so. You may think that $4 is a little steep for one day of gaming time.

Prinny 2: Dawn of Operation Panties, Dood! - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 74
Starring an adorable demon penguin called Prinny (the same character in Disgaea series). Prinny 2 put you on the boots of a nervous hero who has the task of regaining a stolen panties. His adventure is challenging filled with a few tragic, terrible deaths.

The gameplay is a platforming, with Prinny running from one stage to another, and face a difficult boss as a conclusion. He can slash stuff and dash with s few knives while performing some "hip pound" moves, to stun his opponents.

If you want your ass get kicked, Prinny 2 is for you. This game is a platforming equivalent to the serious strategy game you find in Disgaea and it will make really busy. Unfortunately, frequent deaths can make gaming experience a little tedious at times. But if you love extreme challenges, it would be fine. But for a mere mortals like us perhaps a more forgiving 'baby mode' is already adequate.

A Space Shooter For 2 Bucks! PSP Game Review

SCORE: 83

With so many games for PSP today, you can't buy a game from the name alone. For example, a name like "Halo" won't give you enough clue on what you'll get. But now with a name like A Space Shooter For 2 Bucks!, you can't help to get curious.

It is only 54 Mb in size to download to your Playstation Mini, but it offers a plethora of quality along with good story-line. The game is full with a comical and very light-hearted affair that puts a smile on your face.

This game is a really complete package. The experience you'll get is worthwhile, challenging, lengthy and fun. The fact that it is only $2, a dirt cheap offering for such an awesome title. If you're looking for things that can eradicate your boredom. don't look much further. The answer is here!

Angry Birds- PSP Game Review

SCORE: 72

Angry Bird is an exciting game, which promises you bursts of quick actions. The core of the game is easy to understand, destroy structures and evil pigs in it using a slingshot. The projectile? Of course, birds! It's all about, point, shoot, obliterate things and have fun.

Unfortunately, visually, the game is somewhat barren, not much going on the screen, although you can get sharp graphics and solid framerate as result. Sometimes, when those birds hit the structure, you'll get stutter and an overall slowdown. The game is sold for $3.99, significantly more expensive than the iPhone version, that is available for $.99 and it has more levels that the PSP version.

There is no denying this game is really exciting, but should have smoother action, better price and sharper visuals to ensure more polished results.

Images of Playstation 2 Are Revealed

There is talk about PSP 2 again today. The next handheld console from Sony, with some new pictures. Good as usual, Sony has not confirmed anything at all. In my opinion, the PSP 2 looks really too much to a PSP Go which had made a monumental flop . It also looks a bit too similar with the forthcoming Playstation Phone , the Sony Ericsson phone. I think we should wait a bit more news in the design of the console. But this is only my humble opinion.

Who's That Flying?! - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 79
Who's That Flying?! casts players as the member of a Council that specializes on Space Justice -- a band of superheroes that are tasked with helping a planet from any type of dangers. You are Earth, and you are on test after a few monsters known as Ravagers who popped up during your watch. The levels are played as trials. The game is pleasurable, funny, and attractive. The story mode may feel a little boring as each urban's three levels feel too similar and dragged slightly, but that's only a part of the game. The Infinity Modes and challenges offer quick doses of actions that speed up the gameplay well and give you stimulating objectives. It's simply a sleek game for your PSP.

Knights in the Nightmare - PSP Game Review

SCORE: 83
This is a fairly fine-looking game, with appealing looking 2D sprites and well depicted character portrayals. This is rather standard fare for a games that is developed by Sting and in fact looks slightly better than the Dreamcast version released in 2009. Audio also appears immensely improved due to the additional space offered by a UMD/installation process, but occasionally it can get a little disorganized since all actions on the battlefields are followed by some forms of commentary.

Developers have done a marvelous job in porting this game to the PSP. The control arrangement works out properly using the analog stick for the pointer while the stylus has similar function the Dreamcast. Gameplay is satisfying and does an amazing job of bringing excitement to the PSP, sound feels a tad cliché but still works out fabulously. Gameplay is entirely tolerable in both marathon sessions and small doses, especially once the central points of story get rolling. If you love Disgaea or others PSP strategy RPGs. I highly advise you to buy Knights in the Nightmare.
