PSP Reviews

The extreme difficulty of the career mode tarnishes an otherwise great game. With that game mode lacking mainstream appeal, only hardcore rally fans will be able to enjoy all the game has to offer.

A very solid, original idea for a puzzler and, for the most part, is an excellent game. Unfortunately the good ideas are let down by an overly steep difficulty curve that will alienate many.

Puzzlers are not for everyone, but I strongly recommend you give Lumines a try. Quite simply it's not just the best puzzler on the PSP, but one of the best puzzlers of all time.

If you haven't liked any previous games in the series then you won't think much of Ridge Racer, but anyone else should put this at the top of their list come September 1st.

Untold Legends proves that hack 'n' slash RPGs can work well on a handheld and it does a lot of things right, though it does feel slightly unfinished and rough around the edges.

There are a few problems that prevent it from being a true classic, but it still ranks among the best launch titles for the PSP. So, like Tim Henman, not the best in the world, but pretty damn good.

It's essentially a port of a game that first appeared in 2004, but anyone new to the game will find a lot to enjoy here and fans might want to check it out for the new content that has been added.

Racing games aren't exactly in short supply at the launch of the PSP, so a game has to have something special to stand out in a packed crowd - Wipeout Pure has that something.

TOCA Race Driver 2 is a game that racing fans on the move shouldn't be without, assuming you can justify buying the game again for the pleasure.

World Snooker Challenge 2005 works remarkably well on the handheld, and is well worth a purchase even if you already own a home console or PC version.
