Is it game over time for the PSP? What's left?

I'm going to make this short and sweet. All I see on the horizon (that's worth a damn) includes:

Final Fantasy Type-0

Persona 2

Monster Hunter 3rd Portable

Half-Minute Hero 2

Seriously, that's it. Am I missing something here, or can Sony not distance itself fast enough from the PSP?

well there really has not been much development for the PSP for the last year. A few games here and there, but nothing like when it was doing really well. and the pspGO was a major flop. The sony psp is about to move over to the Legacy forum.

I never thought it was a very great system, but that's just my $0.02. Anyways, the Vita is taking over, so yes, PSP is nearly dead

Yeah im sad to say the psp will be gone soon, iv had and will continue to have a blast on mine though. There's still loads of game's i need to pick up for it so it won't be over for me for a while yet. I hope the vita will be more popular then the psp, the psp really deserved more attention, it's a great handheld.

Sadly that's partially true. However, old titles are still out there and I'm planning to keep picking one every month or two as I've missed out on a lot of them. So the console itself isn't dead, but the support it has will most likely be.

Yeah, it's pretty much over. Had a darn good run, though.

it may be dead in terms of new games, but i still have not gone through all the B-level and C-Level games in the library. While I wait for the Vita to come out, I still play games that i never tried before. I started playing Chili Con Carnage, Brave Story New Traveller, and Lara Croft Anniversary. None of those are AAA titles, but still good enough to pick up my psp and kill some time.

There is not a lot of new games coming for PSP. With the PSvita launch on November 4th 2011. Sony and the 3rd parties are working on the PSvita games. about 4 months remain for PSP as the current Sony portable console. The it joins the legacy systems. PSP then should have about a year left of games before it folds for good when the PSvita takes over.

I think PSP was a great handheld gaming device. Sure there weren't many good games on the system but I had a quite fun time with it. And I still play my PSP every now and then.

I don't think it is ever game over time for a portable. The psp has a decent library and can play psx games. I still use my gba. A good portable lasts forever, imo.

• Persona 2
• Monster Hunter Portable 3rd
• Final Fantasy Type 0

There was Valkyria Chronicles III but SEGA confirmed that there was no release date for UK/US :(

It's a great system. Very powerful. Still feels "next gen" to me. I can't even begin to imagine how awesome (graphically at least) the next version will be. Isn't the PSP already powerful as is? The games looks and play great. Graphics are still impressive to me, and the library has a lot of great RPGs especially. Racing games are usually very smooth, too. Hard to imagine the next PSP being much better than the one we already have.

Persona 2 :-)

[QUOTE="tekken220"][QUOTE="Wolfetan"] The PSP Go is not a major flop...Wolfetan

This topic is pretty much what I was thinking about recently. I think its dead or dying at least. Persona 2 and FF: Type Zero for me after that its over.

I hope maybe Valkryira Chronclices III gets an HD remake or something since its not coming over states anytime soon.

For me it a long way from dead. i'm still having a blast on my psp go.

I don't get the people saying the psp didn't have many good games. For me, it was handheld gaming awesomeness. Mega Man X: Maverick Hunter, Dracula X Chronicles, Twisted Metal: Head-on, Syphon Filter, Tactics Ogre: LUCT, FFT: War of Lions, several YS games, Gurumin and more. It was the best handheld of the last decade, imo.

Yeah I'm not really interested in its new releases.:(

For the most part my PSP collection only sees an increase from games released quite a long time ag.:lol:

i still wished to see qriocity and digi comics make it to canada, i've would have liked a calculator and an agenda in the extra menu also, AND Final Fantasy Anthologie PSone classic make it to The PS store. The FF 1 to 9 would have been playable with the PSP. exept the 3 wich sony never got his hands on. Also i would have wanted not to die the umd moovies. anyways , it looks dead project by sony right now...

Was an epic run tho true, and i'll still enjoy it for a long time,i'll never resale my games or this system.

Proud owner of 72 psp games and 10 umd movies

The PSP started off so well, but for the past few years there have been VERY few AAA titles that really show off the console.

Lots of RPGS

But the first few years: Daxter, Wipeout (Pulse and Pure), God of War, Tekken DR, Resistance Retribution

Then...nothing - the PSP should have had hundreds of games of this quality - but it only really had a handful.

I mostly use mine for PSOne classics now...

It will eventually be phased out, but not forgotten.

Sony killed the PSP by releasing to many new versions of it to soon. All the talk was all the movies coming out on UMD. They could have done a lot more with it. Game wise, God of War is the only game that really pushes the PSP to it's limits and show what can be done.

hmm when did psp actually pick up past driver 76 ? ya its been dead for me for quite a while and it looks to stay that way , thank you rockstar for not giving me gta sas , (san andreas stories)
hope vita is on par with 3ds period , and n o im not taLKING FEATURE OR GRAPHICS I WANT GAMES that i can enjoy like i have on my 3ds/ds /gba etc

That's pretty much it with all the games listed. I wouldn't be surprised if gets discontinued within the next two years or so.
