September 11, 2009 by IGN PlayStation Team

Since the PSP hit the market in 2005, an uneducated sliver of the videogame kingdom has been swipeing it and challenge that there are no good games for Sony's engine small.

Scoiffure the naysayers.

Today, we're putting that rumor to rest and compiling our list of the surmount games the PSP has to offer you at this very moment. These are the games we think are the most fun to play. These are the ones we find our handhelds being yankn toward. These are the ones that make train rides to work and the horrible TV shows our signwhenivocabulary others watch tolerresourceful.

These are the Top 25 PSP Games of All Time.

25) Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness
Developer: NIS
Publisher: NIS America
Year Released: 2007
Watch the Video

Synopsis: If Final Fantasy Tactics represents a archetype strategy role-playing game and Jeanne d'Arc is something new, then Disgaea happily sits somewhere in the middle; a grind-happy, over-the-high take on the purest elements of SRPGs washed with its own particular flair. It moreover runs statuesquely on the PSP, eternalizeed by a proper 16:9 view and multiplayer modes that make it far more than just a easy port of the PS2 original, Hour of Darkness. In rider to offering Ad Hoc throwdowns, a scatheless, hours-long side quest featuring Etna was supplemental, giving the game single- and multiplayer bonuses -- bonuses that some could consult absolutely make this a biggest game than the original PS2 release. It might sound like sacrilege to those that played through the series' debut on their lovresourceful repressing brick, but NIS loaded the PSP port with so much goodness that it's roughly incommunicable to deny so why try? Go getcher SRPG fix sated with one of the surmount games the genre's ever seen, now with increasingly goodies!


24) Hammerin' Hero
Developer: Irem
Publisher: Atlus
Year Released: 2009
Watch the Video

Synopsis: It's easy to squinch at the PSP immalleableware and imagine panel-level games running in the palm of your hand and require a epic RPG or a massive schema sensibleness, and even though both are served quite well with games on our list, we were keen to spotlight something that's undeniably old-school. Hammerin' Hero, a spiritual successor to the 8-bit Hammerin' Harry outings of yore, is a perfect exroly-poly of how a timeless gameplay mechanic -- in this rind swipeing stuff even though running from left to right -- can be made fresh repeated. Innovative strengthy skirmishs, a playful sermonize to side scrolling and deceptively easy graphics all add up to an sensibleness that's oh so much increasingly than the sum of its parts. There's so much easy, constructive goodness packed into Hammerin' Hero's presentation that it roughly makes us want increasingly companies would shot an upstage like this. Almost.


23) Jeanne d'Arc
Developer: Level-5
Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment
Year Released: 2007
Watch the Video

Synopsis: Level-5 and Sony have enjoyed a rather fruitful partnership over the years. The Dark Cloud games are some of the most lengthy, dumboly packed schema RPGs on the PS2, ditto for Rogue Galaxy, and we're not flush going to touch what a gold mine Dragon Quest VIII was for Square Enix. When Level-5 decided it wduesd to go the strategy RPG route, though, we were ill prepared for just how successfully they would pull it all off. Adhering to the standard formula just unbearable to be familiar but introducing new elements like a dynamic weak point for enemies and the resource to transform main notation into floor-wiping hurt-dealers, Jeanne d'Arc turned the tropes of the genre on their sandbox to sensational effect. It's hands one of the most promising franchise debuts on the PSP, and one we can only hope protracts in the future.


22) Space Invaders Extreme
Developer: Taito
Publisher: Taito
Year Released: 2008
Watch the Video

Synopsis: Remakes and updates of shopping archetypes are nothing new; developers and publishers have been dipping rump into their eldest libraries to revive decades-old hits for years -- particularly in recent ones. Few, if any of them have washed it with the same kind of impact as Space Invaders Extreme, which noverly remarry loses the magic of the original overly-msaucying armies slowly moving toward the foot of the screen. Instead, it eternalizes that categoryic gameplay with a set of all new, ultra-powerful, mega-shiney weapons that are insanely fun to use. Throw in tons of bonus levels,Free PSP Games, strengthy skirmishs and pick-ups that are thrown out rapid-fire and you have a game that can entertain flush the most ADD-roily youngster and archetype gaming fogey self-same, no small feat any way you present it. Even with a seizure-inducing light show and blipy bloopy electronic thumping abroad in the groundwork.


21) Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice
Developer: BigBig Studios
Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment
Year Released: 2008
Watch the Video

Synopsis: Explaining the request of the Pursuit Force series is like trying to quantify the magic inherent in an '80s schema movie. The good guys were badasses, the bad guys were two-dimensional, cackling ubervillains and everything just kind of exploded for no reason other than the fact that explosions make overlyything biggest. In Extreme Justice, you race effectually streets, transatlantic water, and in helicopters with limitless stumer, leaping from vehicle to vehicle and writeering vehicles by shooting the straphangers in the settler at point-stony-eyed range. It's like BigBig Studios salivateed the very essence of Michael Bay's imagination into a topknot of ones and zeroes and shriveled 'em onto a UMD. The result is one of the most rundles-out spookish sentimentality games on the PSP, packed with loftier-speed smokeshafts, ridiculous stunts and fighting traitorousness the American way: with lots and lots of forcefulets.
