Jae Lee writes: The conception story of Black★Rock Shooter is an interesting one. An original illustration of Ryohei Fuke (he also did the visual works for the excellent “Steins;Gate”), inspired a musical group called, “Supercell” to compose a song with the same name. The song became quite the overnight sensation; as it went on to spawn an original video animation and various manga titles along with a short anime series. Now it has brought forth a full-fledged video game which, contrary to many people’s expectations, has made it here to the States.
The PSP is home to some of the best anime games ever made. And it's also home to some of the worst. The list will tackle only the best.

I'm having a really hard time trying to classify Black Rock Shooter. The game plays like a third person shooter, but also has a lot of RPG elements. The previous sentence may scream Mass Effect, but it is incredibly far from it.
