Unless you're looking at CFW, just go with the 3000. I have both a 2000 and a 3000, and the colors are just more vibrant on the 3000. The interlacing issues with the 3000 were overblown imo.

it's always worth buying a PSP dawg
in my humble opinion the exclusives coming to the PSP next year smoke almsot everything coming on consoles. stuff like peace walker, last ranker, resident evil portable, valkyria chronicles 2, kingdom hearts and ushiro rank amongst my most wanted games
get yourself a cheap 2000 (still the best model). put some cfw on it and youll be able to play all your old PS1 games too

Definitely a lot of good stuff coming out this year. Already on my list are:
SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 3
Patchwork Heroes
Hot Shots Tennis
Block Cascade Fusion (Minis)
Monopoly (Minis?)
Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 (Konami won't let us PES fanboys down again, will they?)

Great thread! I picked up a 3000 at Christmas (sorry, GO, the lure of all those 2005-2007 UMD based games going for $5-$10 right now was too strong).
I immediately replaced the stock 2gb memory card with a 16gb one. Thus far, I can wholeheartedly recommend:
- The Warriors
- Killzone: Liberation
- MGS: Portable Ops
- Football Manager Handheld
- Pinball Heroes (all the tables are great, but like the Uncharted one the best)
- SWB: Renegade Squadron
- SF: Dark Mirror
Games I can't really recommend:
- Field Commander
- The GTA Stories games (they feel too dated after 4 and Chinatown Wars)
- Untold Legends

Hey, Field Commander is solid
Of the Pinball Heroes tables, I only have High Velocity Bowling and Hot Shots Golf. I'll be sure to check out the Uncharted table.
I'd love to get Killzone Liberation as well. The demo I played was pretty cool.
As for GTA Chinatown wars, once it hits $19.99, I'll give it a shot.

who developed this?The Rizza said:A really under appreciated PSP game is Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner. It's very similar to pokemon but I really enjoyed the battles in this game and the story as well. Tons of gameplay and great graphics. The evolution system is really cool too.

BlazingDarkness said:
A company called Gaia, started by one of the co-creators of Shin Megami Tensen (!). I missed out on the UMD release way back when Atlus brought it over, so I'd love it if it would make its way to PSN. But considering how many composers, etc. are involved, not to mention that it was a second-party game in Japan (published by SCEJ) there might be too many legal issues for it.
Apparently Folklore on PS3 was a semi-followup in the same universe. That makes my interest in this game increase even more, as I loved Folklore.

Chinatown Wars being only 9.99 on iphone has to make me think the price will continue to drop quickly on PSP.

So what RPG should I get for my psp. Really want to play something on it? Tales series, Valkyrie or starocean. Suggestions?

how is crimson gem saga?
It's beautiful. The story is not anything special, but I appreciate that none of the characters behave like typical heroes. The battlesystem is simple and good, but has some skills that you don't really need. + you need to get the speed boost shoes as early as possible in the game, otherwise you'll have a hard time running away from foes. (You see the ennemies on the map).darkjedi187 said:
It's long enough. But, the battles get tedious towards the end of the game though. You have to grind a lot (unless I did something wrong). Also, some of the attacks were so powerful that I could just spam them to win the fight, while others were useless.
Depends on what kind of rpg you want for it. Of tactical rpg games, FF tactics, Jeanne D'arc and Disgaea 1+2 are all great.darkjedi187 said:
If you like goofy parody, go for Half minute hero. If you want a high budget SE rpg, go for FF7 Crisis Core or even Dissidia, if you don't mind battles being the core experience.
If you don't mind remakes or ports, Final Fantasy 1, FF2, Star Ocean, Valkyrie Profile and most of all Popolocrois will fit the bill.
Or you can go for more multiplayer focused rpg-ish games like Phantasy Star Portable or Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.

has anyone played Creature Defense? I saw it was one of the games on sale, and I love TD, but not sure how the card-battle aspect plays out.
picked up Crystal Defender on that sale, its average for a TD game, but its SquEnix and for $5 a great value.

Dang I almost bought Crisis Core today. It got good reviews... Maybe ill just DL FF7 from PSN.
I did get Jeanne D'arc though and so far its awesome(45 min in). I also picked up Killzone: Liberation and Ratchet and Clank:Size Matters.
I wish we had a more up to date thread than this, but I cant find one searching through google.

Don't listen to the dude above. He is one of those guys who thinks his opinion somehow is relevant to complete strangers. Many people liked Crisis Core. I didn't love it, but i thoguht it's a fine time killer. Don't play on hard, don't do extra missions. The game is cheap as fuck anyway.

I enjoy Crisis Core more than Final Fantasy 7. (Really!)Sipowicz said:

Dude, you can get like 10 of the best games used for under $100 bucks though. Thats why I got it. I hope PSP2 doesnt come out till Christmas 2011!
I traded in MAG=$36, Modern Warfare 2=$36, DS lite=$75, and a $25 gift card on the Gran Turrismo pack($200) Then I traded Gran Turrismo in at gamestop for $26 and got 3 games.
Not too bad I guess. My fiance says I can use her DS whenever I want, so whatever.

The game does look and play much better on the PSP, so the price difference is acceptable. Easily one of the best games on the system.CartridgeBlower said:

Why? You've waited five years to get a PSP, you clearly won't get/want/need a PSP2 for a while even if it comes out tomorrow.phinious said:
Hi everyone.
So I have birthday on december the 22nd and I suspect I am getting a PSP from my best friend. On preparation for that, I would like to know what games should I be looking for in stores, excluding RPGs and MGS games. (In case anyone is wondering, I have like 8 300-hour long RPGs in my backlog, so no more RPGs for me until those are played and completed, besides I know already the PSP's major attraction is its RPG library. As for MGSs games, just not my thing.)
So, I know I want Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins but other than that I am not very sure what I should be buying that is an absolute must. I guess the god of war game but I am not very fond of the Devil may Cry/Ninja Gaiden/Castlevania:LoS kind of gameplay..(Unless I am wrong and battle mechanics aren't at all like that?)
so...any suggestions?
EDIT: FUCK, I wanted to open a new thread...

Very much enjoyed (enjoying actually, still playing Ghost of Sparta) God of War games on PSP. I wouldn't have said those kind of games were really something was into prior to playing through God of War II earlier in the year (I picked it up back in the day, took me 3 years to wade through my backlog to get round to it). Since then, I've picked up I, III and both PSP games and while they have plenty of combat, I think it's the... lore isn't the right word as I'm sure it's pretty far removed from Greek mythology, but the scale, environment and situations Kratos is placed in. They are definitely worth checking out and Chains of Olympus is probably pretty cheap.
Resistance: Retribution is a solid addition to the series that fills out the story a good bit. It feels closer to the first game than it's sequel did.
Chinatown Wars I played on DS but it's fantastic and I assume the same is true on PSP.
Crush is particularly good as well. Somewhat bias on that one as I worked at Zoe Mode at the time - I'll let others talk of it's qualities.
Patapon 1/2.
There are plenty of great RPGs obviously as well - I'm sure you can catch up on those once you've cleared your backlog. Tactics Ogre is releasing next Febuary (or March?) as well - you can break your stance for that

Who cares about gimped GoW? :lol PSP exists only for the purpose of playing DJ Max Portable, Valkyria Chronicles 2 and Persona 3 Portable. Why would you like anything else? :lol
Crush is an incredibly awesome puzzle game. Easier to be seen than explained http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udEywtrjBkwsphinx said:
There are enemies in later levels but the game is definitely a puzzle style game with tons of levels.
Killzone Liberation is a top down view stop and pop cover shooter. I think it is a better game than killzone 2. There are lots of collectibles and unlockables. The game can be nintendo hard but has unlimited continues at any checkpoints, ie after a hard level be stuck on a boss for multiple play sessions(using sleep mode).
I liked Liberty City Stories. GTA makes a good pickup and play game if you play far enough into the story that you can race around the islands.
The Wipeout games are great but Wipeout HD exists now.
I also played a lot of Castlevania Symphony of the Night from PSN. Is LOS the new console castlevania? SOTN is a 2d metroidvania that has nothing in common with DMC.
