OK, after playing a huge amount of games on PSP i am getting mad that the titles that have been comming out have been at such a mediocre quality. We know the PSP can do more, my question is are we ever going to see a game that raises all expectations for future games? ALSO if the PSP has wifi then i think any game that is mutliplayer should have infrastructure online, Ad-hoc is a good idea if every one had a psp, like ppl having ps2,xbox etc....Playing online and being portable is a win win for all psp owners.....Your thoughts?pwn2ownI couldnt agree more with your comment on the the dismal quality of psp games. Are they putting all their efforts and money to compete with the XBOX 360??? I think so, sony have stuffed up big time, they are not in touch with the user nor do they have the support of game developers behind them. As for playing online being portable, that is the best idea regarding the psp ive heard in ages. If only a sony worker was reading this thread right now :(
There are tons of good games, maybe not killer apps, but there are a lot. They just go unnoticed when a new Mario game comes out...zakkro

Cause I see lots of great games out on psp. I am playing medal of Honor Heroes, I am a pc gamer mostly. Wow, it is amazing what they achieve on the psp in MOH:Heroes. For multiplayer, MGSPO and i think also Marvel Ultimate Alliance has it too..

Ad-hoc in my school classes is great. More games with better quality would be very nice, not many games are worth buying etc.
Indeed, because the recent stream of games like Pirates, The Warriors, R&C, Chili Con Carnage, and Grumin are all piss-poor...FrenziedRaldo24
R&C is piss poor? Seriously?! It got great reviews and I've been a fan of the series since the start and was gonna pick it up tomorrow. What made it so bad?

Yeah I understand what you and everyone else on this thread is saying. The psp has so much potential (there's an infrared sensor that really needs to be utilize). I think that only 10% use their psp's to the fullest, which means using the RSS feed, music, video, pictures, games, buying umd movies, and other software. Yes I know that very Very few developers use all 1.8 gbs of the umd, but with the lack of sales they rather just put out a quick game and not care about quality. 300 March for glory is a perfect example of that. The developers didnt have time to put a game on the next-gen consoles so they went with the psp, which isnt a bad choice, developers dont have to work much to make a game with it.Â
What developers should start doing is make excluses for the psp. Lumines and Loco Roco are great in the fact that they are only for the psp, also they are great games. If more developers just use all 1.8 gbs then the games would be better and more people would buy them.Â
The PSP may never get that "game" that everyone is looking for. For one thing everyone has a different opinion of what the greatest game they have ever played is to begin with. I think that most gamers forget that it cost money to make games. They would have to pay a dedicated development team to do this. In the end would have to charge a lot of money for the end product. As we all know just about every corp. is greedy. They know we are stupid enough to pay top dollar on something we already own. They don't want to risk any amount of money on something that could be a hit or miss. They want to make money or if they can at least break even. Just about every game that has been only made for the PSP has been met with mediocre reviews with the exception of Daxter and a few others. That's why we get re-releases of games that we have played before with tweaked graphics or games that my have never made to the states. They re-sell us names and titles that they know will sell and that we like. The other problem is "us" the consumers. We would rather take the chance and lay our cash or parents cash on something we recognize. Do I want to buy Mega Man that I have played and purchased on every system that it has been re-released on for 50 bucks? or do I want to spend the money on a game called GAME the GREATEST GAME you'll ever play for 50 bucks? I'll buy mega man. I like that series even though I have played it 10 time before. 50 bucks is way to much for something I haven't played yet. Only to find out that the game you passed up on was the only the biggest sleeper hit of the year and if you want it now you will have to pay 200 for it on ebay. Now the development team has been disbanded and the game is now out of print and was on a limited run just to see how well it would sell. The other problem we the consumers have is that the PSP is portable. Sony sold us a portable media device not a portable gaming device. Sony never said that this was only a gaming system. They sold us on the fact we could watch movies, listen to music, surf the net and last but not least play games. In my opinion if I was using my PSP for just gaming then I would be disappointed. But I'm not, I use it to listen to music, watch movies, tv shows and surf the net. I find that I use the system for just about everything else more than gaming. You can just about always find a wireless connection home, work, hotels and malls. Musics a no-brainer. The problem with movies is that we are all lazy. "I don't want to spend 20 bucks on a movie that I could buy for my home DVD player". I don't blame you. But, wheres the logic in that? your more than willing to pay 50 bucks on a game you already own! or better yet "I have to convert it and that takes to long" or "I have to buy a bigger memory stick! thats stupid" all these things are a must to truly get the most out of your PSP. I have over 50 PSP games and they have all been what I have expected some even far better than I thought. I also own a DS, PS3 and Wii and I'm happy with them all.Â

It's a proven and sound business model for developers to view the PSP as PS2 round 2. It requires less R&D, less financial burden, less effort and ultimately greater income. You can bet there's plenty of Tose employees that really know their way around the PSP. We as consumers validate the strategy partially because we are familiar with the brands but also because it's not like we have much of a choice. In my mind, Lumines (and the sequel) remains PSP's greatest gift to gaming, and that was a launch title.

I know it was a bit of a rant. But Im just glad to see some people talk about something other than show me a picture of your games or why should I keep my psp.
I don't really trust reviews. Just because one person says a game is 7, it's automatically mediocre? DevinB9I agree with you. But the fact of the matter is that most people rely on those reviews to make a purchase. It just seems that most of the people that complain about the lack of good games are those that rely on other peoples opinion. I didnt mean it as an attack towards you. Im just glad I got someone to talk about something other than a picture of their games and system.
