Cool, I get two great PSP games on a better screen with superior controls, frame rate, and graphics for a cheaper price! This is why I'm glad I don't have a PSP anymore.goblaa

Why would I want to? Neither of them are the kind of game I'd want to play in tiny bursts. Why I would I want to play in tiny squint-o-vision when I could play on a full TV with better controls?

[QUOTE="Bazfrag"]And people wonder why psp was raped, murdered, and disposed of by the DS.. .foxhound_fox

Well they would say that wouldnt they?

Im sure the idea was to do to Nintendo handhelds what ps1/2 did to their home consoles. It hasnt worked out that way. One of the reasons is IMO that the majority of games are ps2 ports, or will be on ps2 anyway. only a few games offer something that ps2 doesnt.

(Not to mention the high price, the short battery life, the dead pixels, the stupidity of umd's and watching movies on a minescule screen, the limited to no availablity of said umd movies, the rubbish analogue nub, the expensive memory sticks, the vapourware that is gt portable.......)

That means that the PSP has lost an AAAE and and AAE. This is on top of the other PSP exclusives I can play on my PS2 like Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, Lumines Plus, Tokobot, Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters and Silent Hill Origins.

This also means that God of War Chains of Olympus should be coming to the PS2 soon.. I am so glad I bought a DS

LOL, still porting games to ps2

There are games I can play in tiny bursts... but many more that I'll stick with longer than tiny bursts. Also, the PSP has a pretty big screen with great resolution as far as portables go. No squinting needed here.

So there I am, playing God of War or Metal Gear Portable Ops while on the subway knowing full well that similar games are on PS2 as well. Somehow, I'm still having fun with what I'm playing on my PSP. I still don't see a problem here.

The simply fact that they managed to find a market dominated by Nintendo couldn't be it. How about the fact that the PSP has been the only successful handheld not released by nintedo?

Seriously, I forgot where it was said that it must beat the competition to be deemed a success. If that be the case, the Gamecube, Xbox, and N64 were all major failures aswell.

Well they were, in there own ways. n64 didnt continue nintendo dominance, gamecube was worse, and xbox, when you consider how many billions it cost, bombed horribly hence its shortened lifespan.Bazfrag

Only in the context of the SW game would this be considered negative.DireToad

The PSP losing two exclusives to a machine that everyone owns is a negative for the handheld. It's 2 less reasons for everyone who owns a PS2 to buy a PSP

damn it feels good to be a DS owner

Odd... I heard Sony was extremely pleased with their first entry into the handheld market, one which brought them mucho profits.foxhound_fox

I heard that the PSP got totally owned by the DS, no-one buys games for it, you can play most of its good games on the PS2 and it hasn't got jack coming out for it after crisis core

So thier "planned goal" with n64 was to sell less units than a then Rookie Sony? The goal with Gamecube was too lose even more market share?? Also I cant see how, other than an example of how to flush money away, that xbox was a success. Sure it got brand recognition, and Halo, but im sure Gates and Baumer were none too pleased in private.

"The PSP iz worth every penny! I can't wait a few hours to go home and play the same gamez!"

You mean how lemmings "don't care" about how Mass Effect and Gears were ported to PC because they "can play right now"?

Then you ARE a fangirl.

You need to bash other games and consoles you don't own to reassure yourself that you bought the right thing.

You sir fail so incredibly bad.

Shame....PSP is dying one horrible death. The worst part is that cows still deny it, this is the worst case of denial ive ever seen in System Wars, even moreso with the Lemmings in the days of the Original Xbox.

Next up: Patapon, Secret Agent Clank, GOW: Chains of Olympus.

[QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"]

Bashing the PSP at this point is just lame. Its got a graet library. Some great exclusives. Its priced just right. And it gives you console quality titles on the go.

If you didn't get the game on the PSP chances are you are not going to buy it on the PS2. The PSP is where these games are meant to be played.

Gh0st_Of_0nyx

Did you just say Axe Combat on the PSP is a downgrade and bad? Yeah ok I sure do feel sorry for people who actually waited 2 years for a fantastic game like Daxter to be on PS2. BTW, games ported from PSP to PS2 suck arse on the PS2. look at GTA;LCS and GTA:VCS scores on PSP and PS2. One more thing, why does it really matter to sony if they put one of their exclusives on another one of there consoles? :|

Kingdom Hearts BBS is a long way off, its on the backburner in favor of the Cell Phone/DS versions. All I hear the cows talking about whats coming up for PSP in the near future is "Secret Agent Clank, Secret Agent Clank, Secret Agent Clank", which is nothing but an average platformer that will go mutiplatform just like High Impact Games last project.

First off, I have a PSP and like the games that I have for it. However, I can't believe how many people don't see this as a bad trend for the PSP. What sells a game system? Games! Nore importantly exlcusive games, otherwise I might as well buy another system. Plain and simple, the PSP does not have the scope or size of the DS library and it's hurting the sales. MH2 is a great example, a highly desired, exclusive, game which has increased sales a lot. PSP sales always go up when exclusive, highly desired games come out, most recently FF:CC, and GoW, so why take away some of that insentive by porting them.

FOR THE LAST TIME. MICKI FREE IS NOT A GIRL!!!!!!

and it's not bashing other handheld that vindicates my purchase. It's the fact that my handheld is soaring to ever greater heights while the PSP is crashing and burning.

If the PSP was good like the PS2 i'd have nothing to bash and i'd feel bad about not owning one

The DS sold 70 million total, that's what i meant when i said the DS owned it. And i'm not really impressed that it has one game coming out aafter crisis core

The iphone has a better software lineup than that

..because the PSP is in a unique position here. Although some games may no longer be technically exclusive, there is still an experience that cannot be had on a home console: the games are portable.

Wow, did someone hit you on the head with a PSP? what's with all the hate?? I saw you trolling the psp on gamefaqs as well, it's sad, really. and SE said they started working on KH psp version first, and they're releasing it last.

I enjoy my PSP, but the fact is that it has failed. SCEA has dissapointed me for allowing this port-garbage to happen, its large pirating fanbase has dissapointd me for effectively turning my PSP into a fancy-looking Novelty Item, and Sony as a whole has dissapointed me for not marketing the system like they should have. When the next Generation of handhelds roll around, I will not make the mistake of buying a Sony handheld over the tested-and-proven Nintendo handheldia.

Nonetheless, Kindgom Hearts PSP is the last project out of the three that they will be working on. If it was such a priority wouldn't they finish off the project they began first?

how does a handheld game lose exclusive status to a console version. It doesn't work like that. Have fun carrying around your PS2 (oh that's right, you can't)

[QUOTE="Gh0st_Of_0nyx"]

So what is the point of playing these on the port station portable again ?

There getitng better conrolls and a graphical upgrade on the ps2 now so playing it on the psp is basically playing a downgrade in everyway But OH WAIT you can play it on a bus :roll: :lol:

Bread_or_Decide

Whats the point of having a Wii when all it gets is ports of PS2 games.

Well at least it's still Sony/Playstation Exclusive.

I enjoyed the game 2 years ago.

Just like how R&C: SM is better on the PS2 then the PSP.:roll: And if the Daxter on the PS2 is going to be cheaper then it should be below $20, since that how much the PSP version is.

Maybe it's me, but I don't buy portable version of a game that was released at the same time as a console version. Consoles give a fuller/richer experience. That said, I've still managed to buy a ton of portable games and probably spend most of my gaming time with them. I firmly believe that believe that the PSP needs as many exclusive games as it can get.

That means that the PSP has lost an AAAE and and AAE. This is on top of the other PSP exclusives I can play on my PS2 like Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, Lumines Plus, Tokobot, Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters and Silent Hill Origins.

micki_free

whats your point all you play on your ds are FF remakes, Mario Zelda, Metroid, Pokemon and bunch of puzzle games which also can be played on the wii,GC,NES. i think its great that Sony still supports ps2 gamers unlike MS and Nintendo. lets face it all AAA games on theDS are remakes

what cows don't seem to understand is that everyone already owns a PS2. There is absolutely NO reason to buy a PSP seeing as we can play most of its good games on the PS2.

You keep going on about how the PSP lets you play games on the go but that's pretty hard when you have a crappy battery life, load times and one of the worst analogue sticks in history. PS2 FTW, DS FTW

Well, "Consoles give a fuller/richer experience". Yet you say ask "Aren't they the same game, with the game story, same levels, and same gameplay?"

Marginally better graphics, and different controls. But at their core they're the same games. What the PSP version loses in graphic fidelity, it makes up for in portability. That's a decent trade-off.

You may not buy a portable version of a game if the console version is available. But I certainly consider it depending on the game. Ridge Racer, Lumines, WipeOut, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, FF Tactics. Sure, I'd play those on the handheld instead of the PS2. And I don't plan on getting SF Logan's Shadow or Crisis Core on the console unless it gives me much more than nicer graphics.

Exclusives are nice, but I simply don't see the home consoles competing against the handhelds. It's not a consideration for me when buying a game.

I own a PS2... and yet, I still get games for my PSP. I can play to and from work, listen to music/podcasts, watch video, on a single charge. Haven't run across any really bad load times. And my PSP analog nub has treated me pretty well through all my games.

Absolutely no reason to own a PSP? You said it above. You can play games on the go.

So essentially your argument boils down to the fact that you don't want to deal with the battery life, load times, and the analog stick. I.E. you don't want a PSP in the first place, regardless of exclusives from years ago no longer being exclusive.

I see.

You could have just said that instead of tap dancing around. Very well then! You have succeeded in making it clear that you personally do not like the PSP, and have thusly decided you will not be purchasing one.

Was there anything else you wanted to get off your chest?

I tried to state this in another thread, but I'll just say it again:

1. PSP doesn't have a bad batter life. It's actually really impressive. It does a lot before it finally dies.

2. The load times are either short or non existent on all the games I own.
