Bad List since Ridge Racers 2 is missing there.

[PapaBop]

I'm curious but is it possible to legally play these games without buying a psp?

[luckytrouble]

You can play some of them on the Vita via PSN purchasing, but a PSP with a functional UMD drive is the only completely legal way to play games like FF7: Crisis Core.

[WeAreLegion]

Some of them, yes. But most PSP games are locked to that system or digitally on Vita. The Vita's second analog stick is amazing for FPS games. I use an emulator to play many PSP games. I know that's illegal, but I wouldn't call it unethical. There's no way to give developers money for these games anymore. Unless you buy their new games. :)

Highly recommend Infected, if you get the chance.

[Magic_Spatula]

Emulators aren't illegal. Unethical? Maybe. The issue companies have are how you obtained the games. If you got them through legal matters (such as making your own backups of games you own and not distributing them), they're mostly okay with that. If you got the through less..... ethical means, then yeah, it's a no-no in their eyes.

@Magic_Spatula Like he said, there is no legal way to buy most psp games anymore in a way that gives the developers any money. So yes emulators are normally illegal and unethical, but in this case its actually the only way to play some of these games, if you didn't buy the games many years ago.

[jokermm]

crisis core hands down

[Fluke_Skywalker]

Yeah they really need to give us a remake of that for PS4/5 I absolutely loved that game. Still the saddest ending to a video game ever.

[SDuck]

The fact this has vanilla Dissidia instead of Duodecim tells me not to take the list serious. Duodecim is obviously the superior since it has the same content (story included) from the first game and (much) more

[Magic_Spatula]

Yeah. Duodecim was basically an enhanced version of the original game.

[Skuletor]

Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection was one of the best looking games on the thing, surprised it didn't make the list. Tekken 6 was ok too

[autobotdan]

Yes Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection was an awsome psp port. It was my favorite psp game

[Skuletor]

Also Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny was decent. Kratos was so overpowered in that game

[autobotdan]

Yeah SC Broken Destiny was handheld goodness. Also Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max on PSP

[Knightofelemia]

Crisis Core so needs to come to console

[autobotdan]

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max on PSP 2nd greatest handheld fighting game of all time. 2nd place only to Tekken 5 DR on PSP

[chicken_in_the_corn]

GTA VCS

[P_Bomb]

Still have a soft spot for Metal Gear Portable Ops, what with clips being used in MGS4. Was a nice surprise to see Frank Jaeger.

Ghost of Sparta shout out too. Deimos had a skin in GOW3 iirc.
