    No. Mods kept saying to go to that really old Recommendatino Thread. I told them that you made a newer one, game them the link, and they stickied it.

    this is a great thread!

    I'd recommend World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 for the sports, though. Check it out.

    I Like Loco Roco 10x more than Patapon. I don't know found Patapon to be a bit boring. You could try the demos for both games.

    Can anyone help with RPG recommendations? I'm looking at Disgaea, Star Ocean II, Valkyrie Profile, and any others I may have missed. They all look good and I can't decide I'm leaning towards Disgaea just because I've always wanted to try something from that series.

    If you like tactics games as well, try D+D tactics. D+D is of course the origin of RPGs, so you can't really miss with that (and it's done decently enough). The ending was a bit easier than I'd have liked, but otherwise, a pretty good game.

    I think Dante's Inferno could be on that list too. Looks interesting, like a GoW copycat.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If we go back to the beginning, we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods; that fancy, enthusiasm, or deceit adorned them; that weakness worships them; that credulity preserves them and that custom, respect and tyranny support them in order to make the blindness of men serve their own interests. If the ignorance of nature gave birth to gods,

    the knowledge of nature is calculated to destroy them.

    Hey,

    I have a PSP just recently, but the only games I have are Monster Hunter Freedom and /Unite, And I only play those with my friends.

    Any games you recommend? I like action games, shooters are good to, not to hard and fun to play anytime and in your spare time,

    Games whichlook interesting:

    God of War (The demo was to hard for me to finish, so I think the real game is even harder)

    Dissidia: Final Fantasy (Not released yet)

    Prinny: Can I really be the hero? (Reviews said it was to hard too)

    Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core (Really action or just RPG? YouTube videos show slow gameplay)

    Metal Gear Solid (Afraid its to hard too)

    etc

    etc

    ...

    Well if anybody wants to help me out I would appreciate it :]

    Hmm, I'd recommend checking out the Socom titles for the PSP. Fireteam Bravo 1 and 2 are rather cheap nowadays and since you like shooters you may enjoy these titles. Socom Tactical Strike is a different game alltogether though, it incorporates strategy into the gameplay where you basically control a team of four without actually moving them yourselves. Just look for footage of it to see what I mean. you may enjoy that as well.

    Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror and the sequel Logans Shadow are both third person shooters. Dark Mirror, the only one of the two I've played, is rather fun, but can be very awkward to control, making it hard to aim.

    Resistance Retribution is a rather new third person shooter that has recieved a lot of accalaim. I haven't heard many people saying it's bad so you may find a great buy in this title. But with it being rather new you'll probably find yourself paying more than other titles mentioned. It also has a thriving online community if multiplayer gaming is to your liking.But beware of hackers.

    Metal Slug Anthology is a game you may like, it's a 2d sidescroller collection of most-- if not all of the Metal Slug games out so far. It has a feature to have infinite continues for those that don't like to start all over when you lose all your lives.

    As for the games you listed, Prinny can I really be the Hero is. from what I've heard, frustratingly hard. So if difficulty is a major faction as to what you purchase you might want to stay away from it. God of War from what I've heard is a rather fun but short game, I've played the demo and didn't find it that hard, but I have played previous titles in the series, so that may be the reason. I have yet to try my copy of Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core, but it has seemed to be a hit or miss among fans and others alike. Most would agree the story is reasonably great, but when it comes to gameplay, many have stated about the rather bad and repetitive fighting system.

    If you like action games I would suggest you get Crisis Core and God of War. Both are very great games. Also I believe God of War has the option to change the difficulty. Another action type game that is often over looked is The Warriors. Great game IMO.
