I just recently finished the career mode on the NA version of Pursuit Force for PSP and I thought it was a fun, challenging experience. This game hasn't gotten a lot of talk around here (for a lot of reasons, probably, for one came during the March "month of joy" on PSP with SF, Daxter, and MMU, and for two, well, it's a PSP game).
As many people know, this is a pretty challenging game, a few levels especially
. Overall though, I didn't find it like undoable in any way (I give much respect to those who managed to finish the Euro version without any checkpoints though, I doubt I could have the patience to do that. Overall, the graphics are really good, amongst the best on PSP IMO, the music is fantastic and has a nice action movie feel, and the gameplay is fun and very much a spirtual successor to Chase HQ with some added elements.
It has some repetetiveness but to me there was enough mix up in the missions for an arcade style game like this, with the helipcoter, boat, car, and on-foot stuff. It's great for pick up and play with relatively short missions. I know some reviews savaged this game (I think people at EGM gave it a 3.5 and 4.0 or some ridiculous thing, for comparison Gamespot gave it an 8), but I wonder if some of that is from having to rush through it for review, which is probably frustrating given the challenge. I played through it over 2-3 weeks, and when I got stuck just put it down for awhile.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has any thoughts on this game, I think it's very solidly in the 7-8 range and definitely one of the better PSP games I've played, plus it's actually an original franchise on PSP which is a plus. A couple of pics below

like defeating Hard Balls at the end of the convicts missions
