When Sony officially revealed the PSP Go, some eyebrows were raised by the system's $249.99 price point. After all, the current PSP-3000 system can play everything the PSP Go can play, has a UMD disc drive, and sells for $169.99 new.
Some of that sticker shock may be alleviated, as Best Buy indicates that the $249.99 price will at least include a game. According to the retailer's product listing, the retail packaging should contain "PSPgo system, USB cable, AC adapter and Rock Band Unplugged voucher."
"We’re all on the can at least once a day, and it’s always a short escape from the rigors of our day-to-day lives. Time spent on the porcelain throne varies on the person, but if you own a portable game system then there’s a good chance that you’ve brought them with you on many occasions." - Joe Garcia
LOL! This is great! I'm always looking for games that are to good to play while sitting on the can. No, seriously.
SBG: "The Best to Own Forever series isn’t about what’s great right now. It’s about what will be great in 10 years, even though there will be better-looking games and later sequels, and what will keep you pulling that dusty old console out of the closet every once in a while. In this installment, we look at the PlayStation Portable."
Good list. Wanting to get Corpse Party on my Vita.
Though I would add Monster Hunter Freedom 2 (if you can read Japanese, then portable 3'rd) and Phantasy Star Portable 2, which had a very entertaining story behind it.
I loved my PSP, but when I got my Vita I gave it to a friend who loves JRPG's but never had the money for one.
gran turismo psp should be there since it took almost forever to be released!
and also midnight club 3 DUB edition since its a full PS2 game in the PSP!
While it's by no means an amazing game, people should play Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble. It's the closest thing to a 3D River City Ransom you're going to get.
And besides, who doesn't want to have an eye-laser showdown with a Japanese punkass schoolboy?
Chris Buffa (Modojo): For the most part, video game publishers know what works and what doesn't on a portable system. Terrible games are a part of life, but it's rare to see a bad fit. At the end of the day, companies know a handheld's limitations.
I love portable games but some of these make sense I think. Rock Band Unplugged? Shakes head...
well, that price isnt so bad at all if it indeed comes with a game. RB:Unplugged sounds like a good game to add on to the system.
but still. now if it was a game like GOW:COO or MGS: portable ops, then its will make it better.
...the guitar/drum peripherals must be TINY. o_0
Now i think the price is justified.
if they bundle them with those new 2tb memory sticks and sell for 300$ psp gonna be HUGE. can you imagine how much portable porn you will have. thats like fkng disturbing!
For only $50 more you get four times the memory built in.
