I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with games ported, im sure the quality varies from game to game but i was looking to get the GTA's and siphon filter games on ps2 over the psp becuase i would assume they have better controls but havent really come across any reviews on them, if anyone has any advice id sure appreciate it

I'll sue the following scale for the following PSP to PS2 ports: B= bad/worse, G= Better T=much better. Syphon Filter Dark Mirror: B Syphon FIlter Logans Shadow:G Randc: Size matters:T Vice City stories:T Liberty City Stories:G Jak and Daxter the Lost Frontier:B Guilty Gear:B Secret Agent Clank:B Silent Hill Origins:G Not all of them, but I think I covered most.

I've only played the GTA Stories ports and they were pretty decent. Vice City Stories even had some extra content not found in the PSP version.

I'd be wary about "Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters". The PS2 (and PSP) version is done by a different developer to the first 4 R&C games and it's lacking the control fluidity and the background detail that made the Insomniac games so much fun.

I'd go so far to say it's a distinctly bland platformer not worthy to join the R&C franchise.

Well to be fair the PS2 version feels like the other games. They fixed the controls, added strafing which the PSP version does not have and the sole reason I avoid it. And no slowdown. However, Secret Agent Clank and a couple other PSP ports are far worse...

It's the PS2 version i was referring to. On its own it seems alright, but if you play it straight after any of the first 4 you notice it's not quite right.

Well yes, it was made to control on a smaller screen with less space, so it does feel that the controls feel odd and don;t seem to always allow you to move the character very well eve if you push the stick far out and such, But it is at least decent and better than the other uh, game in the series on the PSP. I do agree that it's nowhere near the scale and gameplay awesomeness that is the first 4.

[QUOTE="DiceofSpades"] Jak and Daxter the Lost Frontier:B

I disagree with that one. I thought it was a good port. Slightly better than the PSP version.
