How come every title that came out on this door stopper has been lost to history and no one ever talks about them or pretends they ever existed?
>>
>>750227251
Because shit games like the one in OP get forgotten
>>
>>750227251
Because even if they're fun, they're on a hand-held with only one analog stick which makes most games suck to play.
>>
>>750227251
I will always remember.
>>
>>750227251
Because they were always severely cut down versions of a console game.
>>
Handheld games aren't that discussed beyond RPGs. And "this game but on the go" are usually just compromised versions of the console game so why bother playing. I had a PSP, I enjoyed some games, but I lost all interest in them over time. They just were usually meh versions of PS2 games.
>>
>>750228687
From my experience those are gameplay-updated versions of ps2 games. For ex. rogue squadron allowed to customize your loadout, but ps2 battlefront didn't.

>only one analog stick which makes most games suck to play.
This. Most gamedevs just didn't bother to make good controlscheme
>>
>>750227251
Same reason no one talks about og Gameboy games or Gamegear games. The PSP was too powerful and had no gimmick. Sounds good, right?

Wrong. What that means is that the games are all just shit versions of good console games.
>you like God of War right? Well here's a shittier version!
>you like Ratchet and Clank right? Well here's a shittier version!
>You like GTA right? Well here's a shittier version!

And that's the entire library. Once the novelty of portability is gone, nothing is left. GBA and DS avoided this because in their time console games were all about 3D plus the DS had gimmicks. The games were completely unique to the systems and not just
>game you like but shittier so it can be portable

>>750227251
i played this game all the fucking time as a kid
it was nice for when you were away from home or the ps2 stopped reading disks
>>
>>750229215
Ghost of Sparta and Vice City Stories are the best game in their franchises.
>the n-n-nintendo games were b-b-b-based though!!!
be a little more subtle.
>>
Anything you can google up and have 10+ download locations for is not "lost to history".
>>
>>750229215
Kinda this. PSP was cool device, but when it came to games a lot of the time I was like I'd rather just play this on home console instead.
>>
dude I fucking loved renegade squadron
only true ogs remember the magnaguard movement tech
>>
>>750227251
Because all of the late Zoomers bought DS's when they were kids, including me.
Only kid I knew who owned a PSP was my cousin and he lived a different country away.
>>
>>750227251
I played the fuck out of Renegade Squadron, it was the first one with online multiplayer if I'm not mistaken, which is elevated by the fact it was a handheld title, great game.
>>
>recently get a chinkheld
>set up a bunch of emulators and transfer over some games
>looking at my psp stuff; daxter, def jam ffny takover, smackdown vs raw, thug 2 remixed, etc
>realize i could just emulate the better ps2 versions of these games instead
i loved the psp in 2005 but now, apart from a handful of exclusives, you'd probably only like it if you love ultra weeby shit

My parents did the whole your moving out and I dont care what you need to do to afford it Im not going to wipe a grown man's ass forever etc thing. So I basically sold everything of value I have. Including my Darth Vader PSP that came with this game. But I could never find the game.

But then the second time I moved probably 12 years later it just showed up. In a random box of cables. I dont have anything to play it on, but I feel I have to keep it.

>Start PSP game
>Whirr
>WHIRRRRRRRRRRR

Surprised no one has brought up how Elite Squadron was literally just battlefront 3 but compressed into a PSP UMD.
It really was fun, especially for a hand held. God I wish it wasn't trapped on the PSP.
>>
i love saints row 1 so fucking much i wish this was finished
>>
>>750233495
