Alrighty, planning on getting a PSP sometime soon. Care to suggest some games for me? My favorite genres are RPGs and Survival Horrors, but I'm open to just about anything as long as it isn't a sports or racing game.

My list already:
Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines
Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep
Metal Gear Solid: Acid
Metal Gear Solid: Acid 2
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
Parasite Eve: The Third Birthday
Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core
Final Fantasy: Dissidia
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops 2
Myst
Undead Knights
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth
Final Fantasy Agito XIII

Thanks, guys! :D

Edit: I already have the PS2 versions of Silent Hill: Origins, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, Shadow of Destiny, and Obscure: The Aftermath so no need to mention those. Thanks, though! :)

Iv only played Guilty Gear Judgment on the PSP but it was a lot of fun.
The controls still worked smoothly on the PSP.

That's a pretty sweet list already, but you'll need to grab Persona 3, and Ys Seven is actually good as well. Plus there are several decent classics you can grab on PSN.

...I've actually wanted to ask something like this as well... Nobody around here has PSP games to suggest. Either a console-only or DS player.

...If you want RPGs, you could get Star Ocean: The First Departure and the Second Evolution, remakes of Star Ocean 1 and 2... You could also try Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis, or as it was ported, Mana Khemia: Student Alliance.

Or you could mod it and put SNES/Genesis/GBA emulators on there, like I've done.

P3P. The only emo game that's still capable of being awesome. Incredibly so, since that it smacked me out of my anti-turn-based JRPG phase. That went on for several years.

I'd also recommend Monster Hunter Freedom Unite... Provided you are either uber-1337 at games or have friends that have a PSP and MHFU.

I second this. Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, if you can get into the game will eat your hours forever. What is also said is true, the game is difficult, devilish solo and darn fun with friends but all the content IS soloable. Just hard, and believe you me there is a craptonne of content. over 500 hours worth at least, if you're willing to put the effort in.

Persona 3:FES is the best version of P3, when it comes to content.

Persona 3 Portable has the better battle system, it's more refined like P4's was.

Crimson Gem Saga
Star Ocean: First Departure
Star Ocean: Second Evolution
Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness
Guilty Gear: Judgment

Just a little fyi, the game's titles are "Dissidia: Final Fantasy" and "Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII". Not the other way around.

Well, Crisis Core is one I've been wanting since it came out, so you can't really sway me on that. But what's wrong with Acid 1 and 2?

It hasn't but I know it's one I'll want when it does.

Oh, oops. Oh well. Same difference, I guess, but thanks.

Simply put, it isn't Metal Gear.

Unsimply put:
1) It isn't canon.
2) Snake isn't the same, or is he????
no he isn't.
3) None of the other recurring MG characters are in it.
4) The gameplay is completely different from every other Metal Gear

So basically, unless you want to get a Metal Gear game that has nothing in common with other Metal Gear games (except a main character named "Snake") then do not buy this game.

EDIT: And I said you should avoid Crisis Core because its a frustrating, confusing, button masher. These flaws can only be overcome by intense love for FF7, which I do not have.
