Default Re: NDS and PSP games

I think PSP's only actual straight-up PORT is Tony Hawk Underground 2 Remix (which I guess, as the title implies, is a bit of a remix with some added stuff? I dunno)...

It does have games that are from series that have existed on PS for awhile... Wipeout, Ridge Racer... But they're still new versions of each game...

And yes, to go into more detail on GTA for PSP, it's called Liberty City Stories (I think), and you play as Tommy Vercetti, who was one of the guy's that gave you missions in GTA3 (the one at that restaurant who's mom was always yelling at him)...

It takes place I believe in the late 90s in Liberty City, so it makes sense to use you same city layout as in 3... However like I mentioned I did hear they might add some new areas to go, of course there will be all new missions... And they are adding some of the stuff that the series has progressed with through VC and SA, such as Motorcycles and uhhh I dunno what else...

But yes, PSP is far from just a portable PS2...

Infact I believe I read somewhere that Sony was really ENCOURAGING developers to make totally new games so the PSP can't be labeled as such...

They both have lots of great games. The arguements are silly.

However, talking about ports on a handheld being that much different than console ports because of portability is a bit stupid... no way I'd own a game for each system just because I wanted it to be portable... I'd get something else that I haven't experienced before, and then I'll just play the regular game on my home system once I wasn't on the road. Most people would do this as well.
