Any good PSP titles?

[zeturi]

I got myself a psp, and a 16 GB pro duo on the cheap. Any suggestions on good games out there?

Megaman Maverick Hunter x
Sid Meiers Pirates

Woah, thats all I can think of. Mainly use my PSP to play FFVII and IX.

Phantasy Star Portable
Phantasy Star Portable 2
Valkyria Chronicles II

Resistance: Retribution
Assassins Creed Bloodlines
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
Monster Hunter series

In addition, you can also play a large amount of PS1 games, and if you get some emulators for it, you can further expand your potential library.

Edit: +1 on Maverick Hunter X as well, dunno why I left it out, its currently on my PSP. Also, Megaman: Powered Up isn't as good, but also worth checking out.

Thanks guys, I'll check out some of these for sure.

I'm gonna go ahead and assume we're all using custom firmware, since everyone with a PSP usually is. Which custom firmware is best? When I used to have a PSP, I had 5.00 m33-6 on my system, so that's what I've installed on my current one. I've also heard there's a plugin that'll allow me to play games that require as high as 6.20 firmware. Should I be fine with this firmware?

Thanks, bro. Those both look interesting.

Once I fix my memory card reader, I'll be golden. The Dang thing broke on me a week after I bought it.

Yea, I'm still rolling 5.00 m33-6 with Prometheus (the add-on you speak of). It works with most everything, and I find 5.50 GEN to be not as stable or really worth it for me personally right now. They're is also an ISO loader for (I believe) the latest firmware out now, but its not a fully fledged CFW, just a text based ISO loader meant for 3000 and PSPGo owners.

They're the same game.

Dang, I fell victim to incorrect grammar.

I'm running vanilla 5.00 m33-6. Works pretty well, wasn't aware that there were firmware addons

Well, you could stay on the normal 5.00 m33-6 without installing Prometheus and still play games for newer firmwares too, but you'd have to manually patch the eboot in all your ISOs for them to play. Prometheus just does the same thing, but patches it on the PSP via RAM on the fly so they just start the same as your older games.
