Yeah, most RPGs suck nowdays...but at least we get some good ones now and then (Kingdom Hearts, Soul Calibur and Okami are good examples). Now let's try and clear up the arguments before it all snowballs into a closed thread, okay? Remember - closed threads make Ra cry

Speaking of Okami, it's going to be released in Australia on Valentines Day. What I have heard about it is very encouraging to me, and I am definately going to buy it Though I am kind of upset that we are yet again getting games about five or six months later than America *grumbles* Still, if it's for a game like Okami, I think the wait will be worth it

Okami is easily one of the top 3 best games in the PS2 library. Right beside God of War and Shadow of the Colossus.

BTW, how are Soul Calibur and Okami RPG's?

I'm so pissed right now. Konami is short on cash, and caned several next-gen projects including the only thing they were producing that was important to me. They just canceled Gradius VI to feed more money to Kojima's money pit Metal Gear. This probably means the end of the series; the last surviving horizontal shooter.



Rest in peace Gradius.

Gradius wasn't cancelled, that was just a misunderstanding in the latest Famitsu.

Yep I'll stop. I just want to brag about it Anyways, I just heard that they didn't cancel gradius 6

Also, what do u believe is the best rpg on the psp and the worst?

For me the worst is Anatosia Story.. The worst crapful game ever on the psp.. loading times aren't too bad the story stinks and the graphics smell of old school 16-bit graphics.. this is the kind of game that can be made on a rpgmaker but consdiering this is a port of the pc version I believe korean I think this is a disapoinment..

the best I think so far is the valkyrie profile Lenneth which I rented a couple days ago.. excellent port with some amazing cgi movies.

I've got myself a PSP. I've logged so many hours into Liberty City Stories, it's ridiculous...'Been talking about getting Vice City Stories, but the price is a bit prohibitive right now.

Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins was another fantastic game. I spent many a night trying to beat that sucker...

I also own NFL Street: Unleashed and Wipeout Pure, which aren't the greatest games around. Midway Arcade Treasures: Extended Play is pretty kick-ass, though.

And Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops just looks like the best portable game ever.

Dude, I've owned my PSP since damn well near launch, I don't need help. I own PoP: Revelations, Lumines, Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, Gitaroo Man, Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee, GTA: LCS, and WTF: Work Time Fun.

There's nothing else worth owning on the system. Some games are fun, yeah, but most of them are just terrible ports of PS2 games. The only truly great thing to come out for the PSP was the MMX remake and the Gitaroo man port. And no, Mega Man Powered Up isn't, "great" it's average at best. MMMHX, because it was a great use of the PSP's capabilities to do something you couldn't get anywhere else. Really nice graphics, and the terrific addition of the MMX anime mini-movie thing. That was great. And Gitaroo man, simply because it was a port of a game that has become impossible to find anywhere, with the exception of Ebay.

The biggest problem with the PSP is just the way the entire thing is set-up. Playing a game like Prince of Persia with only that sh*tty little stick, and without multiple buttons is a pain in the ass. The same can be said about MGS: PO, which has you press 4 different buttons at once to simply lean. And UMD? A joke. A dead format. Disc drives + portable games = worst idea ever.

Of course, that'll all be solved once the dual-sticked, download only, PSP2 comes out, right?
