PSP collections usually consist of compilations and collections, and there haven’t been many PSP originals in a while. Every now and then, however, an original title comes along and it just happens to be one of the best games on the PlayStation Portable. One such game is KillZone: Liberation.

Liberation is a sequel to KillZone on the PlayStation 2. Though it has been brought down to a handheld console, the game makes full use of the hardware capabilities of the PSP to turn into an all-time PSP classic.

Liberation’s success can be owed to the fact that it’s an improved version of the original KillZone, on the PSP. It has improved features, and is just a really fun action game. It also has some depth to the story and gameplay that most portable titles seem to be missing.

You play Templar, the same guy in the original KillZone. The story continues a little after where KillZone left off. Your basic objectives in the Killzone Liberation PSP version are to infiltrate the enemy camp and to rescue hostages. Doing that is the fun part. You get to go gun-crazy on a whole bunch of enemy soldiers, and blow up their installations. The game also let’s you pilot every possible kind of craft, not to mention dismantle anything that has the enemy’s logo on it.

Interaction and gameplay control is a pleasure with KillZone: Liberation. The game has a natural feel to it, and controlling your character is extremely simple, with context-based tasks, making actions during combat feel seamless.

The game involves tons of multitasking, with you giving orders to your team while taking out enemies and sabotaging their equipment. Rico is one of your comrades who help you out, and he isn’t annoying or incompetent, thankfully.

The shooting part is free aim, with the game adding it’s own fine tuning to make it more accurate.

KillZone Liberation is a great sequel to KillZone, and a great action shooter for the PSP. It’s a must have title for those who have played the original, and even for those who just enjoy action games generally. It definitely gets a 9/10 on my scale.

Hot Import nights is the second installment in the famous Juiced series. Though one would expect the sequel to be similar to its original predecessor, it is not so with Juiced 2. Hot Import Nights seems to have undergone massive changes from Juiced 1, in terms of overall design, repairs after a race are free now, and the calendar driven event style is long gone. I’m not saying it’s perfect, but it’s much sleeker, and a far better experience on the PlayStation Portable.

Looking at the game play, the controls are reasonably responsive, and steering mechanics are better in the PS2 and PSP versions. A little downside to the Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights PSP version would be that drifting around a corner would cause you to lose speed, which isn’t that much of a problem on the other versions, as it is on the PSP. racks are closed off from the rest of the city, as in most racing games, but they feel quite generic. The design’s lack the personality found in the other versions, but aren’t too bad either. Moving through the tiers involves getting into qualifying races by completing a number of goals.

Tracks are closed off from the rest of the city, as in most racing games, but they feel quite generic. The design’s lack the personality found in the other versions, but aren’t too bad either. Moving through the tiers involves getting into qualifying races by completing a number of goals.

Goals can range from simply winning an event, to winning a bet of $25,000 or even something like staying in the air for over six seconds in a race. It isn’t limited to one goal per race either. For instance, you can accomplish all the three goals mentioned above in a single race. So, if you know your way around the game, you can keep the number of races to a minimum while quickly advancing up the tiers.

Upgrades are another cool feature of the game. Upgrades can be made to most performance parts of the car, with each racing league allowing you to unlock three new levels of upgrades for the three upgradeable performance units, for power, handling and weight reduction.

Overall, the game has it’s own bits of weaknesses and strengths. There are tons of things to do in the career mode, and it has been laid out nicely, but customization of the car can get scratchy, and tracks aren’t exactly top quality. It isn’t perfect, but it’s worth the play.

Do you remember the classic Generation of Chaos games for the PS2? Well, like most good games on the PS2, these ones have made their way to the PSP in the form of Aedis Eclips: Generation of Chaos.

The series successor seems to be just as exhilarating and exciting as its predecessor. Generation of Chaos Aedis Eclipse is also a strategic turn based title with role playing trappings. The most shattering part of the title is the involvement of three distinct stories that take place in different planes of existence, namely, the lower world (Greekland), the surface world (Aedis) and the celestial world (Galadia). The player is fully authorized to be any of the existing planes but beginning players will have an easier time in the lower world.

The title’s gameplay is actually quite predictable, as it also includes that clichéd RPG formula featuring a kingdom at war, sassy teens rescuing the world and combat using magic and technology. The plot and storyline in the game, also known as Generation of Chaos IV (PSP), are purely original, though there are obvious references and similarities with the prequels. The gameplay takes place on a segmented map dotted with structures, monster encounters and a variety of fortifications. As with any other action packed strategic title, the ultimate goal is to devastate your foe’s headquarters, while defending yourself. Before you begin combat you need to select a commander who will accompany you there. The largest map will take hours to complete, since you will be required to capture most of the grid and invade your enemy’s headquarters before claiming your reward. The game’s presentation and interface is admittedly somewhat convoluted, but fortunately it does not get in the way of the gameplay too much. Overall, it is a quality strategy title and a worthy successor to the successful series.

Video games often get a lot of bad press for encouraging violent behavior with their carnage and senseless killing, but Manhunt 2 from Rockstar outdoes nearly all the competitors when it comes to senseless, random violence. If you have been longing to release all that pent up rage, then this violent, and gory game will definitely be for you.

In this game you play as Dr. Danny Lamb. He’s actually an asylum inmate who luckily got a chance to escape all because of a freak electrical malfunction. Since he’s in a mental asylum he doesn’t remember much, but with his fellow inmate and constant companion Leo he’s able to fill in bits. As he begins remember his past he found that he was deeply involved in a medical experiment known as “The Project”. Throughout Manhunt 2 (PSP) there’s only one matter of worry and that’s fear of getting caught. As Danny you can easily disappear whenever you desire, which means you are struggling to survive in a stealthy manner. As the past and truth are revealed an interesting story unfolds.

In the Manhunt title fighting for survival is more compelling than fighting for sanity. You’ll be taken through some of the grimiest and seediest locations possible, such as a sticky sex club, gritty gas stations, and slummy warehouses. While exploring these dreary locales you can always expect the unexpected. The graphics could be better, but are more than sufficient for a handheld game. The sound is also quite eerie and relevant to the game.

For many years now PSP has made people addicted to their popular games, attractive consoles, and with their mind blowing features and accessories. After getting several new consoles and games based on new themes with unbelievable graphics and realistic players, it’s still hard to forget the charm of the old PSP games. Many players remember these old PSP games very fondly.

According to the latest news from the Sony Entertainment (America), they are about to shut down the various online servers for old PSP games. From June 30, 2008 these servers of old PSP games will go offline. Its not that only old PSP games will suffer but some old PS2 (play station 2) games such as Amplitude, Destruction Derby Arenas, Everybody’s Golf, Eye Toy Chat, F1 (2004), Jak X, Lemmings PS2, My Street, Symphon Filter Omega Strain, This is football 2004 and 2005 will also go offline along together with the two PSP games Lemmings and World Tour Soccer 2 from the mentioned date. These games, which are about to go online, are very popular among crazy PSP and PS2 lovers. The main reason behind this could be the new versions of games which Sony Entertainment has already launched, so that people can easily switch over to the latest games instead of playing the same old games with the same boring two dimensional graphics, unrealistic players and background etc. For instance, World Tour Soccer 2 is the old version of the soccer game for the PSP, but now the PSP has launched Pro Evolution Soccer 5 in which people will get improved graphics, new football clubs and more intelligent opponents to compete with. The same goes for other games as well. People now should move towards more advanced and intelligent versions of games leaving the older games behind for more thrill, excitement, fun and adventure.

When a game crosses the threshold and spills over on to many gaming consoles, it would be odd if the game misses out on a popular gaming device like the Sony PSP. Ghostbusters, for example, is likely to be released for the PSP very soon following the successful release of the same on other popular consoles like the PS3, PS2, Xbox ,Wii and PC. Terminal reality has recently confirmed that this is going to be a likely possibility and it is indeed a matter of emergency to release the game for the hand held market As soon as Possible.

According to Euro gamer, Brendan Goss the executive producer didn’t rule out the possibility of a PSP version and was reported to have said “There are discussions right now about a PSP version,” he said. “We’re waiting to see how the PS2 stuff goes from a technical side with memory, and then it may get ported to the PSP.”

He had also reported that although it might be a little difficult to get a PS3 title to play on the PSP, it is fortunate that the game is also being developed on the PS2, which makes it easy for a transfer on to the PSP. Therefore, it doesn’t seem as big of a stretch to put Ghostbusters on the PSP, and that’s good news. It is still unclear as to when exactly the game is going to be out in the market as it doesn’t seem to be too much of a technical glitch to get it to port on the PSP. However, Ghostbusters remains one of those expected games that the PSP fans would love to get their hands on. The Sony and Nintendo DS are on quite a race towards popularity and the introduction of this game is going to make the day for PSP.

Pipemania – it might say nothing to you. But the game principle is familiar. Various Pipemania clones, with the same type of pipe focused gameplay, have been available for the computer since the DOS days. At any rate, the idea of stress-filled pipe building is so encouraging that Empire Interactive has undertaken it upon themselves to revive the series.

The title, which should come with five different game modes, seven settings, and more than 70 levels, is set to be released for the Wii, PS2, PC and PSP. The only question is whether a reworked version of the old age principle can thrill today’s gamers. Resuscitating Rainbow Island, for example, turned out rather poorly, while the new edition of Final Fantasy was also a letdown. One, not unimportant reason, is that many better games and clones have been released since the time of the originals. The name will help little if the gameplay is outdated. Nevertheless, Pipemania could turn out to be a fun low budget title worth picking up.

Yes, you are reading and seeing correctly. At least that is more or less the content of the PS2 game Moe Moe World War II, now coming to the PSP. According to the publisher SystemSoft Alfo, the PS game set in the more unrealistic World War II scenario, will be a mix of strategy and adventure. Moreover the PSP version will add an additional scenario and character, improved graphics, and make slight gameplay changes. Apparently we can expect a very, very, very unusual gaming scenario.

Because to make a game where the characters are anime girls with swastikas on their bikinis, the developer has to be full of audacity. The game will hardly be allowed anywhere outside of Japan, where it should be released this autumn. At least the current version will have trouble in Europe, because of the Nazi images, and in America, on account of the sparsely clad women.
