Worldwide PSP releases for the week of January 18

by Majed Athab { Jan 18th 2009 at 12:00PM }

You know, come to think of it, the universe of PSP game releases is a lot like our very own ocean of stars up beyond the sky. They're like those twinkling balls of gas, so many of them, so many out of reach and so many that are far in between. But when one reaches for that one star they call their own, it's magical.

NA Games:

Star Ocean: Second Evolution

EU Games:

No new releases

Asian Games:

... Apparently, the skies over Asia are more blessed.

I'm not even done with first departure yet! Granted i got it for christmas but still, i'll probably pick this up after i get resistance retribution and killzone 2

It's sorta interesting as how the game are being released on the PSP. There really isn't that much coming out, but there is, is generally pretty good. For instance, you have Star Ocean 2 this week then DJ Max portable next week. That pretty much sums up the releases for the month of January.

It's interesting to note that LocoRoco 2 will lead the pack for next month followed by Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?

March is going to be all right as well. Mana Khemia, Resistance Retribution, Phantasy Star Portable, Dynasty Warrior Strikeforce, and Samurai Showdown Anthology.

I think that the PSP is off to a great start with Star Ocean 2 leading the way. It's always good to have a Squeenix game to start off the new year, IMO. I hope that people won't complain too much about the PSP. Already this year I see more titles I'm excited about and have release dates then the total sum of what was released last year. Regardless of how the PSP is fairing against the DSi, there's no denying that Sony's handheld has some real must-haves. Don't get discouraged, people.

Oh yeah, lest I forget, Dissidia is coming out this year as well. Plenty of games for plenty of tastes. BTW, don't forget about Agito FFXIII, KH:BBS, and PE:TTB. If you don't know what those are, then I cry for you. 2009 will rowk.

Sorry 'bout the wall o' text. PSP is just my fav. system and I get excited whenever a cool game(s) is/are announced.

Yeah, it is a little odd. There aren't many games, but I'm looking forward to nearly every one.

And sorry that my grammar sucks. I just woke up a little while and am feeling a bit under the weather.

Star Ocean 2 comes out right when I have absolutely no money. God damn it.

Ah well. I'll pick this one up as soon as possible. First Departure was a fantastic game that I genuinely can't wait to re-play to try to play with all the characters I didn't recruit into my party.

My PSP's screen broke somehow last week. And I see no real reason to get it fixed. Yay, a remake of a game I already own on PS1 and never finished.

Next week a game that's almost impossible for normal people to play

why so negative???

slycooper_rocker [psn:slycooper_rocker] @ Jan 18th 2009 5:46PM

he's a negative person

aj @ Jan 18th 2009 5:56PM

It's okay to be negative when you dropped 200$ and then some on something like the PSP.

The only reason why I love mine so much is CFW. I've spent hundreds of hours playing homebrew games (Urquan Masters FTW) and old Gameboy ROMS (Super Star Wars FTW). And quite frankly, most homebrew projects were abandoned in 2006 or so. It's just sad all around.
