My Top 10 PSP games - #1 to 3

Time to finish off my list! Let's recap first:

10. Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions
9. Tales of Eternia
8. Brave Story New Traveler
7. Monster Kingdom Jewel Summoner
6. Daxter
5. God of War: Chains of Olympus
4. Patapon

And now for the top 3!

3. Star Ocean First Departure - My first Star Ocean game. You start on the primitive planet of Roak, where the citizens have suddenly become ill with a disease that is turning them to stone. Roddick and friends are trying to find a cure when they accidentally meet two people from Earth. They believe they can find a cure to the disease in the past. Roddick and crew travel to earth to gain permission to use the device to travel back through time. And that's where the adventure begins :D The battles are played out on 3D fields with 2D sprites. The gameplay is similar to Tales games. I thought the voice acting was wonderful and I really enjoyed the story and characters. The private actions you can do in the towns were great; many very hilarious to watch and they added much to the characters personality and thoughts. It may have gotten many mixed reviews by others but this game gets a giant gold star in my book :P

2. Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth - I don't know how many times I picked this game up at the store and every time I wouldn't get it. There was something that had me worried that I wouldn't enjoy it. When I finally purchased it I couldn't have been happier that I did and could kick myself for almost missing out on such an awesome game. The main character, Lenneth, is a Valkyrie who serves Odin, the ruler of the heavens. Asgard, the realm of the gods, is at war. Lenneth's job it to travel to Midgar, the realm of the mortals, and collect souls to serve in the army in Asgard. There are a lot of characters you meet. Some you will keep throughout the whole story and some I barely played before sending them to Asgard. I like that no combination of characters were stronger than others, I picked the ones I liked the most and kept them with me then trained the rest before sending them to Asgard. I love the gameplay. With each character set up to a certain button you could decide who went first and your combination could break the enemy's defense or allow you to use your special attacks.

1. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII - like this wasn't obvious :lol: This game is a prequel to FFVII. You play as Zack Fair, best friend of Cloud Strife. The story starts with him as a SOLDIER 2nd. Genesis, a SOLDIER 1st has gone MIA and Zack is sent to Wutai. It is there that the story sweeps into loss, mystery, and betrayal which leads to the inevitable ending that anyone who has played FFVII would know was coming. There isn't a single thing I dislike about this game. I aient kidding, even the 300 side missions were enjoyable for me. The characters I just love, you get to learn more about Zack, who was important to the story of FFVII. Genesis was a great character as well. Also it was awesome to see how different Sephiroth was before the Nibelhiem incident. It makes me love the character even more. The story was fantastic, I may have known the ending but that didn't make the story any less engaging. Oh, speaking of the ending: Best video game ending EVER imo. The gameplay was fun, the real time action was good for this game since you play only as one character. Voice acting, CGI cutscenes and graphics were amazing, definitely the best on the PSP. I could continue, but I think I've rambled on enough about why this game is at the top of my list :D :P :lol:

And yet another top 10 list bites the dust :P Next blog will be the upcoming PSP games that I am looking forward to!
