Moving on, ive decided to do something a little different. I'm going to run through a slew of games available for the PSP that everyone should play. Why? Well the PSP is going to 'die' sometime this year, but before you go out and Vita it up consider all the great games still out there. Tbh there are still games coming out for the PSP that I'm eagerly awaiting for (Black Rock Shooter, Final Fantasy Type 0, Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom). So without further ado, the games everyone should play in a nut shell....sort of.
