Hmm...seems like they're overrating the game quite a bit (one of the PS3's best games?), although I'll admit that I really did enjoy the demo(s).

Left out the NBA games since they basically have their own threads.

 

Yeah, I definitely recommend people check that out if they have PSP (assuming it is anything like the original...though it is probably better in at least some ways).

Actually, this is a pretty strong month for the PSP, especially in the strategy RPG department with Disgaea and FFT (two of my favorites).
