Playstation Portable is one of the Sony's most impressive handheld devices was released in year between 2004 and 2005. It was sold over 82 million worldwide and it shares tons of amazing game titles to play, but Sony decided to released their PSP's successor called PS Vita which was released in year between 2011 and 2012. Despite the poor sales of PS Vita that didn't do well on handheld gaming market it does offers some of the amazing titles to play and some great features such as touchscreen/rear touchpad, dual sticks and remote play.
I'm very glad that I have PS Vita for 5 years because I've enjoyed playing some of PS Vita games and of course downloadable PSP games. It's a shame that the physical PSP games aren't backwards compatible with the PS Vita due to lack of UMD format, but instead you have to purchase the PSP games library from PS Store which is not a bad thing because you may be lucky to buy these for cheaper sales.
There are some of the PSP games that PS Vita owners should be able to enjoy these awesome titles and I'm going to make my top 5 must play PSP games for PS Vita owners. This is for the PS Vita owners who did not own the original PSP, but they should able to download it from PS Store and play on their PS Vita system, so please enjoy this top 5.
5 - Resistance: Retribution
Resistance are one of the fantastic FPS series by Insomniac Games (same developers team behind Ratchet and Clank series). This game is a spin-offs to main series and unlike rest of the games are First-Person Shooter this game is a Third-Person Shooter where you take control of British Royal Marine named Lieutenant James Grayson has his mission to wipe down the Chimera invasion.
This game features impressive cover-based gameplay mechanics with easier to control aiming system which works well for the TPS style and it has excellent selection of combat weapons with great shooting range. It has epic single player campaign with fantastic storylines and characters that made the presentation sounds interesting for the series. This game also features 8-player online matches with modes such as Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Containment, Free For All and Assimilation.
This game is definitely worth playing for most of the PS Vita owners should able to purchase from PS Store.
4 - Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny
Soul series were very known for being one of the best 3D weapon-based fighting games in history.
Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny is definitely the quality game for PSP to show how amazing this game looks on PSP standards due to technically impressive visuals and animation. Despite the game has missing the proper story presentation and online versus modes this game features quick match modes where the players are given the list of A.I players to choose which opponent to fight and gauntlet modes is the tutorial which has similar story telling features like Soul Calibur II's Weapon Master mode, but it has 34 chapters with two to four sub-missions in each stages. This game also has character customization mode which you can able to edit and customise your character's appearance just like from Soul Calibur IV.
I finding the combat gameplay is very accurate to control due to incredible fighting techniques, great use of weapon systems and fluid combo performance are very playable and responsive to play. The game also has memorable characters from previous titles and also features playable guest Kratos from God of War series.
If you're the fan of the series then this is definitely for you to play.
3 - God of War: Chain of Olympus

God of War is always one of the most badass hack n slash series on Sony platforms. This game are surprisingly the best game for the PSP library. This game is a prequel to original God of War which is loosely based on Greek mythology and set in ancient Greece. You take control of Kratos who been guided by the goddess Athena, who instructs him to find the Sun God Helios, as the Dream God Morpheus has caused many of the gods to slumber in Helios' absence.
This game is very similar to previous installiment with a focus on combo-based combat, platforming and puzzle elements. I'm very impressed with the overall game because the developer team Ready at Dawn has managed to help Santa Monica Studio to make such quality PSP game due to magnificent controls for PSP standards. It has amazing combat gameplay with insane combo systems and great selection of weapons and power-ups. It has well designed levels environment with excellent puzzle solving that made the game quite challenge. I also loved the overall look of graphics which shows the powerhouse of the PSP systems with fantastic visuals, well designed characters, gorey special effects and runs on 60 fps. Kratos are always one of the most badass video game characters of all time that kicks everyone ass and it has superb storyplot and amazing Greek-themed presentation.
PS Vita owners should able to experience this epic hack n slash action.
2 - Metal Gear Soild: Portable Ops
Metal Gear Soild is always one of my favourite Konami franchises of all time. Kojima Productions was the mastermind behind Metal Gear series were well known for being the most influential stealth-action game that defines the game's genres. I'm very surprised to see any of Metal Gear titles being released for handheld system. Metal Gear Soild: Portable Ops is a stealth-action game for PSP which take place in the events 6 years after the Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. You take control of Naked Snake who is forced to fight off his former unit FOX after they instigate a revolt in a South American base. He get to meets a surviving member of the Green Berets team named Roy Campbell was sent to investigate the affair.
This game retains the stealth-action gameplay from the MGS 3: Snake Eater, but offers the team-based approach where you have to recruit allies and form a team of trained specialists which is helpful for players to work with the teams during the mission. I finding the team-based gameplay is very useful for each missions which gives a player experience to enjoy the single-player campaign. I really loved the stealthy gameplay mechanics where the player has ability to hide on the objects and sneak behind the enemies without getting caught and I also liked the mission objectives is where the players has to complete each tasks on every mission which bought so many in-depth challenges. This game has incredible stylised cutscene, well-written story and fantastic cast of characters that bought out such amazing presentation and the graphics did a good job for PSP system with realistic looking characters and great level designs that really fits well in a game. This game also features online multiplayer mode which is an expansion of the "Metal Gear Online" mode previously featured in Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence.
Fans of the MGS series were pretty impressed to see how Kojima Productions managed to make such excellent game for PSP titles, so this is definitely the second must play for PS Vita owners.
1 - Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy
-1.jpg)
Final Fantasy was one of the biggest landmark of turn-based RPG genres by Square Enix. The success of the main series has spawns so many of sequels, spin-offs and other related series. It is hard for me to get used with the Final Fantasy series because games like FFIV, FFVI and FFVII are the only three games that I've enjoyed, but I finding FFXIII are quite not good as the previous titles that I've liked. What really got me attention is the Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy for PSP which is quite a different game from the main series, so I just got this game purchased from PS Store and downloaded it on my PS Vita. I spent playing this game for three to four weeks to complete and it really pleased me a lot.
Instead of traditional turn-based RPG, Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy is game mixed between action RPG and 3D fighting game genres. It is a prequel to original Dissidia Final Fantasy. The game initially focuses on the twelfth war between the gods Chaos and Cosmos who have summoned several warriors from parallel worlds to fight for them.
This game features additional mechanics that adds to the battle system such as EX mode and assist. It also features some of the new playable characters such as Lighting, Tifa, Vaan, Laguna, Kain and Yuna, while it's still retains the returning characters from the originals such as Cloud, Squall, Onion Knight, Zidane, Cecil and Terra. This game has single-player story mode with open-world map where players being able to experience a story while exploring the world with scenarios and events taking place as the story progresses. It has great battle system mechanics and terrific combat controls that keeps the performance of gameplay feel freshed and polished to play. The exploring is great for finding items chest, purchasing a variables of magics and battle out against the enemies to level up your character's skills. You can also purchase your new weapons, armours, moves and accessories to improve your character's abilities. This game has versus modes where you can fight against other player through local or online modes and you can also battle against A.I players as well. I really loved the presentation of the game with cinematic sequences, stunning characters and superb storylines that made the game quite entertaining, and it has one of the best soundtrack from all Final Fantasy series.
This is by far one of the best games for PSP library that is highly recommended for PS Vita owners should be able to enjoy this kind of game.
