That's the longest top 5 video I've seen and THANK GOD this is not just a regular top 5 video, with only 5 mainstream jrpgs. I just bought a new PSP and I was looking for some RPG games I've never played. Thanks, that's one of the best reccomendation videos I've ever seen.
Just started watching your channel. You are one of the few big collectors that descrube story lines. Which means you play all these games which is awesome.
Great recommendations as always, man. Been playing Ys Chronicles 1&2 on my Vita (originally on PSP) and it is amazing. I really recommend it to everyone that may read this. I'm a musician and its one of (if not ) my favorite soundtracks in an RPG along with Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy vi, Suikoden, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest, etc You even have 3 options for every single song. Basically from basic Midi to real band and instruments; all o them worth a listen. The combat is fantastic after you get used to it. Its length is just appropriate. It's difficult (except a couple of battles) is just fine. It is so good, I recommend it to everyone. I also recommend Alundra!!
MusicRed yea man, I am a guitar player as well...check out threeasone music page on Facebook if you get a free minute...acoustic music with a buddy of mine on rhythm guitar, i play lead and his wife sings.
I appreciate the format, peppering your top 5 with groups of honorable mentions throughout. Also nice to see someone giving some of these gems a fair shake!
I beat ff7 on ps1 at age of 21. holy cow, I barely spoke/ understood English at time. And there were no guides nor RUclips back then. Final boss was like 80k. and something hp's, if I'm not mistaken. Killed from 2nd try, I remember my 💓 was pounding at 200/ minute while battling) oh memories..
Wow, had 3 versions of psp, but was never into jrpgs, + did not knew English as a kid, seems like I've missed a lot of great games. Thx for the provided list, will definitely check out some of the entries in the future.
2 thumbs up for the great list! Have been playing rpgs (only) since Lufia 2 on SNES 25-something years ago and so many wonderful landscapes since. For psp, fell in love with Crimson Gem Saga. Though its really demanding grind-wise, for some reason, I never got tired of it. The battles are always fun (actually learned theres a few tricks to adding in extra combos about 70% of the way through game lol) and the story is JUST what the traditionalist craves. As well..the Legend of Heros series (the 1st 3) are not to be missed, bad reviews be damned. But yeah, damn good reviews! You have traveled far and lived well to be in possession of such knowledge and I salute you!
GamezOf War I just subscribed. Your videos are excellent. We have a lot in common. Lunar Silver Star on Sega CD is also my all time favorite game. I just finished Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time on the PSP and it was AWESOME. It is actually my favorite RPG on the PSP. Did you ever get around to playing it? Here's a few of my all time favorite RPG games: 1-Lunar Silver Star on Sega CD 2-Xenogears PS1 3-FF7 PS1 4-Baldur's Gate 1-2 on PC 5-Xenosaga 1-2-3 PS2 6-Grandia PS1 7-Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time PSP I'm going to check out some of your other videos. Thank you for all of them.
i'm super curious. How do you find the time to play all these games?? I have so much trouble trying to finish even one rpg. Do you tend to just play the main story to experience the game, but not necessarily 100%? Skip the grinding? What's your usual playstyle? I love rpg's but they are really intimidating for me to start unless i have an entire free day to dedicate and really dive in.
misterkeebler it depends really, how into the game I get if I do all the additional missions etc...I just get off work and play the shit out of some games, some days I play music or hang with the wife..most of these I bought played and finished when they came out.
Makes sense. Just amazes me how you remember so many little things about all these rpgs. But that's why i like the channel! Found a lot of gems from watching the vids. Thanks.
I'm actually annoyed that I remember every little detail from games I play YEARS after I play them. I see people replaying games yet im stuck here remembering everything that happened. I still remember the entire story of shining force 2 AFTER 8 years...
I just started watching you after I found a PSP at a garage sale for $10 and needed ideas for games, even if they were more unorthodox like J-RPGs and some of these look really cool! Subscribed!
I was about to head to bed as well then I saw a new vid up. Great picks for the PSP and I have a few of them myself time to increase my collection of RPG's. Keep up the great work you have been doing with your channel.
I never had a PSP. I finally got around to it because I wanted to try the versions of FFT, and Tactics Ogre on the system. I also got Jean D'Arc and Wild Arms xf
i really want to get PSP but i'm confused with the models so which one you recommend to me the 1000, 2000 or 3000? also good job man another good video keep it up!
Get a PSP 3000 or 2000. I've got PSP 1000 But it has 32MB Ram so it's slow when in comes to heavy games suc has GoW. Ect, just don't get a PSP 1000, Go or E-1000.
What a wonderful video!! Only Games of war could do it!! I would suggest you trying also Untold legends, Phantasy Star portable 1 and 2, and D&D Tactics!! All amazing rpg games! Carry on this way!! GOW Rules!!!
I wish we could get another portable system with its own unique games. The Switch is cool but it's just games you could also play on your TV. I was bummed when the 3DS got shelved.
PSP man, my favourite! Always enjoy your content on this under appreciated system. Still looking out for that YS books 1+2 box set! With all the essential titles coming out on PS4 this year though, gaming money is tight!!
You brought back memories, thank you sir you hit the nostalgia spot real good, I had most of those games and they were awesome, great video can't wait for the Xbox originals buyers guide it should be epic.
Excellent choices man! Our lists are very similar. Jeanne D'ark would squeeze it's way into the list long with, a couple of the Sting games, FFIV Complete, and probably either Lunar or one of the Ys games. Makes me think of how we were supposed to get Grand Knight Kingdom, but the translation fell through...
That's a great list. My PSP battery blew up but thankfully a good chunk of these games are available to play digitally through the Vita. Ys games are awesome, thinking of playing Origins for the PS4 next.
So cool video. I have 3 PS Vitas, but no one PSP. And it is so interesting to listen about this console and games on it. So cool-looking RPG's. Jean D'Ark - the best! Thank you for this video!
Ys 6 the ark of napishtim still remains one of my fav RPGs on the psp. Also, tales of the world: radiant mythology and FFTwotl. Psp has so many great games. The nostalgia is very real. Great times!
Just dug my psp out but only get 3 games left for it and they are r.p.g.s and you showed 2 on this video ( the legend of heroes and tales of eternia) the other game is(untold legends the warriors code ) .I'm new to your channel but I love it cos I'm a massive fan of r.p.g games ,
I wish they would release more of these games on the Vita. the PSP is my favorite handheld by far. there was just so many awesome games and even games we didn't get here were awesome as well.
A little tip to you, when recording on games, do not be so far from the camera, we can not even read the title on the cover, especially those who wear glasses like me
Fantastic video bro ! Finally got my Vita thanks to your great recommendation. The PSP is next ...... are their variations in the PSP screens that you aware of ?
Thanks great video! I already had gotten most of them on my psp, haven't played none of them yet lol. playing the vita atm.. too many awesome games!! suggestion, if in future you could do a video for ps3 like this. PS3 Emulation on pc is becoming a real thing, great improvements last month, and i never had a ps3 myself... Only care for rpg's mostly and unique' AAA titles quality.
Reconxyz89 yea bro, i would love to do a PS3 RPG video..3D Dot Heroes, Dragons Crown, white knight chronicles, dragons dogma, Ni No Kuni...all must own games, all exclusive!
i been watching alot of your videos =p i got to say i love it. Mainly because we have alot of similar tastes. X) glad to see more RPG Collectors out their on youtube. =) P.S. Jelly of your Fire Emblem Collector Edition in background.... T.T my got canceled.
I had the District Manager of Gamestop Apologizing to me, because i never got the warning, never got the phone call i was suppose to get that my order was canceled, case it wasnt when i got their. I went on Gamestop's Rewards program it still said it was valid. If i knew it was canceled i had people that could had hooked me up to get a copy.
This year I decided to try psp version of Yggdra Union to see if its just nostalgia, giving it a try again proves that Yggdra Union still the best rpg I have ever played. After that I decided to try the whole series, Knights in the Nightmare is such an unforgettable experience and Gungnir is such a top notch strategy rpg with its awesome difficulty.
Wow, I clicked on this expecting praise for the same games I've heard about a million times, but this is one hell of a top 5(?) list. I wish game journalists were like this. I'm so tired of their low gaming knowledge, crazy biases, shitting on games for extremely stupid reasons, and overall just seeming like they don't really have a passion for the hobby.
I imported the PSP Lunar and I thought it was great. An interesting fact is that in the UK we only got the digital PSP version and we did not get Lunar on Mega CD or PS1.
not realy much to comment on stuff but i want to give you and your channel 2 thumbs up iv been watching your stuff from the start and each and every time you surprise me the quality of your video's is all ways improving the subject matter is great keep up the great work dude
I never had a PSP back in the day, but I've been meaning to pick one up, especially to play the 2 Japanese Yakuza spin offs that are on there. Luckily though, I've been able to play a few PSP games like Persona, FF IV through the Vita and damn, I can tell how much of an awesome system it would of been during it's days just by playing a couple of games!
Of course the PSP has an amazing RPG Library!!! There's no way that those games can be represented adequately!!! You need to be fully invested in the portable gaming market in order to be relevant! Great recommendations! Great video and keep up the good work!!!
I would like to recommend to you Mana Khemia: Student Alliance It was poorly reviewed but I think you would enjoy the game. This us just the impression I get judging from the games on your list
yeah i love this game. the story was sooo good, even played the sequel on ps2 but haven't finished it yet, cant read the ingredient the text was so small
I can't believe people still think Tornado cheated in the Robot Wars 6th wars grand finale in there battle against Razer with the frame stopping them from going into the pit the judges stated that that was completly allowed as it was a new and innovative design and it didn't breach the Robot Wars rules in any way.
Of cause it's not nearly as big as a scandal as in the next Robot Wars series series 7 Storm 2 (a pushbot) was treated horribly by the producers as they didn't want Storm 2 to win because it didn't have a weapon and the producers deemed him 'not exciting enough' they attempted to do everything they could to stop him from winning the title including giving his opponents more time to fix there robots and freeing other robots when they got stuck which unless the robot got stuck accidently the house robots are not allowed to interfere. They even misinformed the judges which led to that controversial judges descion in the grand finale where Storm 2 lost to Typhoon 2 despite Storm 2 doing most of the damage. Luckily in the rebooted Robot Wars these things don't happen anymore.
Как же долго я искал твоего обзорчика на RPG и JRPG игры на платфору psp ) Закачано 65 gb , потрачено кучу времени и все в пустую ... В основном находишь какие-нибудь заезженные игры ( в топах) которые не по разу проходил
I'd love to get them all but they're getting so expensive >_< And I just don't have the time and there is also my massive backlog waiting on my shelf. I'm considerin getting the japanese versions because I'm in the progress of learning japanese but they just don't have the same magic as the english versions have and they dont maintain the same resale value as the english copys do. Sorry for the rant :D great video
Weird counting system, with the video's name being "Top 5 PSP RPGS," and around 27 games mentioned (with around 8 as "honorable mentions"). So, somehow five equals thirty-five (or twenty-seven). Numbers five and four have two games listed each. The list, relative to the video's title, doesn't make a ton of sense, apart from being a generalized overview of PSP RPGs. Video chapters would have been great, except that some games are only discussed for a few seconds. Finally, a script would have trimmed the video to a more watchable length (ten minutes or so). Otherwise, nice collection of games.
little upset to see lunar at number one as a fan i feel a like they took advantage with that release. It's been a little while sense ive played it but i remember the first dungeon being super short i believe it was 3 screens to get to the white dragon and all the other areas were the same way, they took alot of short cuts in level design.the way it looks and the battle system were very polished tho. on a side note,no legend of heroes trails in the sky that was a very good game
zidane4571 Lunar is my favorite game of all time..I have played and finished the sega CD originals.. So trust me, I found the PS1 versions not true to the originals. I've had time to get over it, PSP is better then the PS1 version, that's a fact
Can you write the name of the games either on screen or in the discretion. Or, at least zoom the fucking in to the game covers. I didn't get most of the names the you were talking about.
I played crimson gem saga and didn't get the warm fuzzy feeling, the in game art was okay, i even liked the turn based battles but, i don't see that in even the top ten
just my opinion. first of all I love your videos I have bought alot of games based on your recommendations. as much as I try to give RPG's a try I just don't have the patience or the the time to play these games. most of the games are based on sitting there and read a story I mean I don't even get sores on my fingers because all I do is walk around, read, and press the button a couple of times during battle whatever happened to all the hack and slash and finish the game in a couple of hours I guess I'm just old school...lol just give me something with good visuals let me kick some ass and don't hold my hand in the process....lol guess I'm just getting old and bitter

That's the longest top 5 video I've seen and THANK GOD this is not just a regular top 5 video, with only 5 mainstream jrpgs. I just bought a new PSP and I was looking for some RPG games I've never played. Thanks, that's one of the best reccomendation videos I've ever seen.
Top 5 PSP RPGS. Proceeds to lists every English translated RPG for PSP ever made.
Just started watching your channel. You are one of the few big collectors that descrube story lines. Which means you play all these games which is awesome.
Matthew Russell yea man, never could understand how people could but so many games and beat so few...
this is prbbly the best psp rpg digest on yt, well done bro
Great recommendations as always, man. Been playing Ys Chronicles 1&2 on my Vita (originally on PSP) and it is amazing. I really recommend it to everyone that may read this. I'm a musician and its one of (if not ) my favorite soundtracks in an RPG along with Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy vi, Suikoden, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest, etc You even have 3 options for every single song. Basically from basic Midi to real band and instruments; all o them worth a listen. The combat is fantastic after you get used to it. Its length is just appropriate. It's difficult (except a couple of battles) is just fine. It is so good, I recommend it to everyone. I also recommend Alundra!!
MusicRed yea man, I am a guitar player as well...check out threeasone music page on Facebook if you get a free minute...acoustic music with a buddy of mine on rhythm guitar, i play lead and his wife sings.
Cool! Will definitely check it out!
I appreciate the format, peppering your top 5 with groups of honorable mentions throughout. Also nice to see someone giving some of these gems a fair shake!
Anthony B yea man, so hard to narrow down just 5 games...had to do honorable mentions!
I've looked through a lot of lists....and this is the best one. You have great taste!
Thx man!!
I beat ff7 on ps1 at age of 21. holy cow, I barely spoke/ understood English at time. And there were no guides nor RUclips back then. Final boss was like 80k. and something hp's, if I'm not mistaken. Killed from 2nd try, I remember my 💓 was pounding at 200/ minute while battling) oh memories..

Try Gurumin adventure, Persona 3 and Valkyria Chronicles those are my favorites for now
I know I'm a little late, but this is a great video. I still play my pspgo every day. Currently addicted to Elminage Original.
2 thumbs up for the great list! Have been playing rpgs (only) since Lufia 2 on SNES 25-something years ago and so many wonderful landscapes since. For psp, fell in love with Crimson Gem Saga. Though its really demanding grind-wise, for some reason, I never got tired of it. The battles are always fun (actually learned theres a few tricks to adding in extra combos about 70% of the way through game lol) and the story is JUST what the traditionalist craves. As well..the Legend of Heros series (the 1st 3) are not to be missed, bad reviews be damned. But yeah, damn good reviews! You have traveled far and lived well to be in possession of such knowledge and I salute you!
I really miss this guy's content. He just sounds like a (as normal as gamers can be) normal dude talking about games he likes and it's chill.
Crimson gem saga and lunar are one of my favorite games for psp, I remember being impressed by the graphics xD
Unbelievable collection! Just found your channel, love it!
I love these videos but it would be nice with the titles written and picture of the cover. It would make it easier to track down the titles.
lunar silver star one of my favorite game ive ever play
GamezOf War I just subscribed. Your videos are excellent. We have a lot in common. Lunar Silver Star on Sega CD is also my all time favorite game. I just finished Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time on the PSP and it was AWESOME. It is actually my favorite RPG on the PSP. Did you ever get around to playing it?
Here's a few of my all time favorite RPG games:
1-Lunar Silver Star on Sega CD
2-Xenogears PS1
3-FF7 PS1
4-Baldur's Gate 1-2 on PC
5-Xenosaga 1-2-3 PS2
6-Grandia PS1
7-Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time PSP
I'm going to check out some of your other videos. Thank you for all of them.

ha me too, i played that game on megadrive. i still remember all the secrets and the battle music still stuck on my head til this day.
Wow you have a great memory? Im sorry dude, you poor thing.
Only videos on youtube that the more you watch, more you learn! thank you gamez of war!
I just started watching you after I found a PSP at a garage sale for $10 and needed ideas for games, even if they were more unorthodox like J-RPGs and some of these look really cool! Subscribed!
Crystal White Mustang that's a steal for a PSP!! Great stuff!!
I wish people who made lists would write them in the description. I hate rewinding.
then why would they watch?
When you make your video LARRY ...make that list bro 😏
Larry Medina how about pause??lol I'll add the games in description next time.
Japan has the best games hahahaha,true!
Conor Gray hahahaha!
Watched this again to get an idea on what to put on my PS Vita, we miss your videos as they are so good.
recently started getting into psp games and this vid has been an excellent reference
Good stuff!! PSP amazing!!
I was about to head to bed as well then I saw a new vid up. Great picks for the PSP and I have a few of them myself time to increase my collection of RPG's. Keep up the great work you have been doing with your channel.
John Garza thanks lot man!!
Dude you mention Let us cling together, I LOVE that game :)
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Lunar is one of the best RPGs ever made. I played it on the PS (Working Designs).
Jin Kazama yea man, nothing will top Lunar for me...EVER!!!
I never had a PSP. I finally got around to it because I wanted to try the versions of FFT, and Tactics Ogre on the system. I also got Jean D'Arc and Wild Arms xf
i really want to get PSP but i'm confused with the models so which one you recommend to me the 1000, 2000 or 3000?
also good job man another good video keep it up!
Get a PSP 3000 or 2000.
I've got PSP 1000 But it has 32MB Ram so it's slow when in comes to heavy games suc has GoW.
Ect, just don't get a PSP 1000, Go or E-1000.
thanks man
What a wonderful video!! Only Games of war could do it!! I would suggest you trying also Untold legends, Phantasy Star portable 1 and 2, and D&D Tactics!! All amazing rpg games! Carry on this way!! GOW Rules!!!
Emanuele Matricardi thanks man!! I do like untold Legends
Cool video, Crisis Core was one of my favorites back when it came out. Just started Kingdom of Paradise recent
Devin Groover love Kingdom of Paradise man, lemme know what you think!
sure will do!
Please do top 5 tactical rpgs of all time. Your good at those lists!
Great a always mate , I love my PSP and Vita take them to Sea with me everytime I go away , 👌G'day from OZ as always and happy Easter 👍
Conor Gray nice man!! They make the perfect companions!! Love to take them wherever I go!!
Love your presentation! Very informative and useful!!
I wish we could get another portable system with its own unique games. The Switch is cool but it's just games you could also play on your TV. I was bummed when the 3DS got shelved.
thank you for another awesome video!
wpnx 84 thanks for watching and commenting man!!
GamezOf War Yo man, I'm looking for psp French language games so I can practice my French, do you know any games, or list of psp games in French?
Lunar Silver Star Story Complete needs a re release on the PS4 with HD remaster or a straight PSP port with a physical release.
Darrell Dath I'd prefer a proper 3rd game in the series!! But I'd take an HD version of the Sega CD original!
isn't lunar 2 the third game?
Tremendous selection. Thanks Josh.
F Kafka thanks bro!
PSP man, my favourite! Always enjoy your content on this under appreciated system. Still looking out for that YS books 1+2 box set! With all the essential titles coming out on PS4 this year though, gaming money is tight!!
CommercialReign you can say that again!! So many good games!!
Appreciate the info. Going with Dragoneers Aria. Can’t beat the PSN price of 5 bucks! And impressive collection btw. 👍
You brought back memories, thank you sir you hit the nostalgia spot real good, I had most of those games and they were awesome, great video can't wait for the Xbox originals buyers guide it should be epic.
Victor Oliveira yea man, it's taken a long time to finish!! But it will be worth it!!!
Love these videos and your channel! I get so many cool ideas for my own collection, keep up the awesome work!
Chronik Spartan thx bro!
Excellent choices man! Our lists are very similar. Jeanne D'ark would squeeze it's way into the list long with, a couple of the Sting games, FFIV Complete, and probably either Lunar or one of the Ys games. Makes me think of how we were supposed to get Grand Knight Kingdom, but the translation fell through...
EmperorFoxx man, I was so bummed out about that!! Is that in any way similar to Grand Kingdom on vita/PS4
That's a great list. My PSP battery blew up but thankfully a good chunk of these games are available to play digitally through the Vita. Ys games are awesome, thinking of playing Origins for the PS4 next.
I can't wait to play Origins myself...really excited!
So cool video. I have 3 PS Vitas, but no one PSP. And it is so interesting to listen about this console and games on it. So cool-looking RPG's. Jean D'Ark - the best!
Thank you for this video!
exDemonius I have 2 psp's and 2 Vita's myself..I like to have back ups in case anything goes wrong.
Great video. A Friday evening with a hot coffee and a great vid discussing the best genre
in gaming. Thank you for a great half hour.
inshadows1000 thanks for looking forward too and enjoying the vids bro!
Ys 6 the ark of napishtim still remains one of my fav RPGs on the psp. Also, tales of the world: radiant mythology and FFTwotl. Psp has so many great games. The nostalgia is very real. Great times!
Just dug my psp out but only get 3 games left for it and they are r.p.g.s and you showed 2 on this video ( the legend of heroes and tales of eternia) the other game is(untold legends the warriors code ) .I'm new to your channel but I love it cos I'm a massive fan of r.p.g games ,
Just found your channel and you have an awesome collection! I hope to have one as large as your's some day! Subscribed.
draketheman75 thanks man! Really appreciate it!
I wish they would release more of these games on the Vita. the PSP is my favorite handheld by far. there was just so many awesome games and even games we didn't get here were awesome as well.
nitemaredude21 yea man, PSP kicks so much ass!! Can't believe how well the games have aged!
GamezOf War yeah I'm still picking up games for this system.
A little tip to you, when recording on games, do not be so far from the camera, we can not even read the title on the cover, especially those who wear glasses like me
Caio Ferreira ok, I will pull it in closer in the next videos.
GamezOf War id really like to know how to spell the names of the first game series you showed with the X on them. plz
Very good criticism, I was thinking the same thing.
They aren't X's its YS
thank you man. I live in Rio de Janeiro and i like to play on psp very much i love rpg games .now i will play astonishia.peace bro and thanks
Fantastic video bro ! Finally got my Vita thanks to your great recommendation. The PSP is next ...... are their variations in the PSP screens that you aware of ?
another great vid dude top notch as usual
mckernan1987 thanks brother!! Glad you enjoy it!!
Thanks great video! I already had gotten most of them on my psp, haven't played none of them yet lol. playing the vita atm.. too many awesome games!! suggestion, if in future you could do a video for ps3 like this. PS3 Emulation on pc is becoming a real thing, great improvements last month, and i never had a ps3 myself... Only care for rpg's mostly and unique' AAA titles quality.
Reconxyz89 yea bro, i would love to do a PS3 RPG video..3D Dot Heroes, Dragons Crown, white knight chronicles, dragons dogma, Ni No Kuni...all must own games, all exclusive!
Great video! Didn't know most of these titles!
i been watching alot of your videos =p i got to say i love it. Mainly because we have alot of similar tastes. X) glad to see more RPG Collectors out their on youtube. =)
P.S. Jelly of your Fire Emblem Collector Edition in background.... T.T my got canceled.
LordsOfSkulls yes man!!!! That damn thing went quick!!!! Same with shadows of Valencia!
I had the District Manager of Gamestop Apologizing to me, because i never got the warning, never got the phone call i was suppose to get that my order was canceled, case it wasnt when i got their. I went on Gamestop's Rewards program it still said it was valid. If i knew it was canceled i had people that could had hooked me up to get a copy.
The caption is killing it at 7:55
Oh man, the special black-red version of psp is amazing
This year I decided to try psp version of Yggdra Union to see if its just nostalgia, giving it a try again proves that Yggdra Union still the best rpg I have ever played.
After that I decided to try the whole series, Knights in the Nightmare is such an unforgettable experience and Gungnir is such a top notch strategy rpg with its awesome difficulty.
Wow, I clicked on this expecting praise for the same games I've heard about a million times, but this is one hell of a top 5(?) list.
I wish game journalists were like this. I'm so tired of their low gaming knowledge, crazy biases, shitting on games for extremely stupid reasons, and overall just seeming like they don't really have a passion for the hobby.
Also the FFT port is pretty cool. Love the cutscenes.
As always - nice video !
OG444 [Gabe] appreciate it man!
Went and got all these cuz of your reviews have to say you have good taste
I imported the PSP Lunar and I thought it was great. An interesting fact is that in the UK we only got the digital PSP version and we did not get Lunar on Mega CD or PS1.
tezpovey that really sucks ass man! My favorite game of all!!
not realy much to comment on stuff but i want to give you and your channel 2 thumbs up iv been watching your stuff from the start and each and every time you surprise me the quality of your video's is all ways improving the subject matter is great keep up the great work dude
cronstar thanks man!! That's really nice to hear!
great video sir.. PSP games are amazing I bought a lot of them on my PSVita sadly StarOcean is not available on the US PSN Store..
IRaymund Castro no shit, I didn't know that.
Good to know!
Where are you man. We need you with more quality titles... DO IT!
Im back!!
I never had a PSP back in the day, but I've been meaning to pick one up, especially to play the 2 Japanese Yakuza spin offs that are on there. Luckily though, I've been able to play a few PSP games like Persona, FF IV through the Vita and damn, I can tell how much of an awesome system it would of been during it's days just by playing a couple of games!
Mickhero yea bro, I'll never forget the first time I saw that screen in person,blew me away! Still looks better then the 3DS if you ask me!
Dammit! Just about to go to sleep! What a great system the PSP was. Great games of all genres, especially RPG's
wilhelmryan011 yea man, a fantastic machine that actually got support from Sony, wish the vita was shown the same respect!
I'd like to add Tales Of Eternia to your list. It's a truly wonderful RPG with a fantastical story and memorable characters.
Another great vid dude!
Hal Emmerich 141.12 thanks man! Glad you like it!
awesome video im playing jeanne d arc now its excellent! im gonna have to find some of these other games and play on my vita
My Kind of Games what a fantastic game Jean is! Yea, love playing psp games on vita!
Of course the PSP has an amazing RPG Library!!! There's no way that those games can be represented adequately!!! You need to be fully invested in the portable gaming market in order to be relevant! Great recommendations! Great video and keep up the good work!!!
Roaming Dan it really does man, the PSP library is just killer!
I would like to recommend to you Mana Khemia: Student Alliance
It was poorly reviewed but I think you would enjoy the game. This us just the impression I get judging from the games on your list
yeah i love this game. the story was sooo good, even played the sequel on ps2 but haven't finished it yet, cant read the ingredient the text was so small
Agreed! Sulpher :3
great vid mate
6k subs congrats brother
Jeremiah Sanderson thanks man!! It has been growing pretty quick lately!! Very happy and grateful!
Lovely love the PSP rpgs
*Corrections*
Ys Vii is also available on VITA; Crisis core is prequel not continuation of FF VII
Tom Is a Door yea man, off the cuff.
I forget things sometimes,lol
I can't believe people still think Tornado cheated in the Robot Wars 6th wars grand finale in there battle against Razer with the frame stopping them from going into the pit the judges stated that that was completly allowed as it was a new and innovative design and it didn't breach the Robot Wars rules in any way.
Nivada Star ahhhhhhh, what??
Of cause it's not nearly as big as a scandal as in the next Robot Wars series series 7 Storm 2 (a pushbot) was treated horribly by the producers as they didn't want Storm 2 to win because it didn't have a weapon and the producers deemed him 'not exciting enough' they attempted to do everything they could to stop him from winning the title including giving his opponents more time to fix there robots and freeing other robots when they got stuck which unless the robot got stuck accidently the house robots are not allowed to interfere. They even misinformed the judges which led to that controversial judges descion in the grand finale where Storm 2 lost to Typhoon 2 despite Storm 2 doing most of the damage. Luckily in the rebooted Robot Wars these things don't happen anymore.
谢谢你对PSP游戏的介绍，唤起了我多年的回忆..
At 8:10 the over world music from Bravely Default plays - is the same music used in the game you're reviewing?
Как же долго я искал твоего обзорчика на RPG и JRPG игры на платфору psp ) Закачано 65 gb , потрачено кучу времени и все в пустую ... В основном находишь какие-нибудь заезженные игры ( в топах) которые не по разу проходил
I'd love to get them all but they're getting so expensive >_< And I just don't have the time and there is also my massive backlog waiting on my shelf. I'm considerin getting the japanese versions because I'm in the progress of learning japanese but they just don't have the same magic as the english versions have and they dont maintain the same resale value as the english copys do. Sorry for the rant :D great video
denkahina97 yea, I can’t do Japanese...the voice acting alone drives me crazy..
Weird counting system, with the video's name being "Top 5 PSP RPGS," and around 27 games mentioned (with around 8 as "honorable mentions"). So, somehow five equals thirty-five (or twenty-seven). Numbers five and four have two games listed each. The list, relative to the video's title, doesn't make a ton of sense, apart from being a generalized overview of PSP RPGs. Video chapters would have been great, except that some games are only discussed for a few seconds. Finally, a script would have trimmed the video to a more watchable length (ten minutes or so). Otherwise, nice collection of games.
Really nice list,agree with you all the way with Lunar amazing game my fav on psp and sega cd too
Sirmi98 Cruz that's great to hear bro!! Really would love to see a part 3 some day!!wishful thinking!!
enjoyed the video man
Joshua Jensen thanks bro!
Riviera is arguably my favorite RPG of all time. I have the GBA version, is the PSP one any good?
Rhetorical Synchron oh man!! Big improvement!! I love the PSP version the best!
my favorite psp rpg is Monster Kingdom Jewel Summoner
dreamingseth It was my answer to Pokemon until I got a GBA emulator on my PSP.
little upset to see lunar at number one as a fan i feel a like they took advantage with that release. It's been a little while sense ive played it but i remember the first dungeon being super short i believe it was 3 screens to get to the white dragon and all the other areas were the same way, they took alot of short cuts in level design.the way it looks and the battle system were very polished tho.
on a side note,no legend of heroes trails in the sky that was a very good game
zidane4571 Lunar is my favorite game of all time..I have played and finished the sega CD originals..
So trust me, I found the PS1 versions not true to the originals.
I've had time to get over it, PSP is better then the PS1 version, that's a fact
3:21
Crisis Core is not a continuation. It is a prequel.
Can you write the name of the games either on screen or in the discretion. Or, at least zoom the fucking in to the game covers.
I didn't get most of the names the you were talking about.
tonanon all games are pinned in the top of the comments
Good vid bro
RPG Y MAS thanks bro!!
I played crimson gem saga and didn't get the warm fuzzy feeling, the in game art was okay, i even liked the turn based battles but, i don't see that in even the top ten
just my opinion. first of all I love your videos I have bought alot of games based on your recommendations. as much as I try to give RPG's a try I just don't have the patience or the the time to play these games. most of the games are based on sitting there and read a story I mean I don't even get sores on my fingers because all I do is walk around, read, and press the button a couple of times during battle whatever happened to all the hack and slash and finish the game in a couple of hours I guess I'm just old school...lol just give me something with good visuals let me kick some ass and don't hold my hand in the process....lol guess I'm just getting old and bitter
I own dishonored, res 7, horizon zero, nioh. All in one shop. Which would u start first?
Larry Medina Horizon for sure man!! Love that game man!!
It would be nice if you would show the Names of the games on screen, or in the Deskription.
Nayro Jinges it is pinned at the top of comments.
Let's create a video named top five RPGs and present seventy different titles!
Bet!!
im so glad when people know yygdra riviera and Knights in the nightmare. i love em xD
crono bachi they are very special RPGs bro, so damn creative.
Played Lunar and Dark Wizard way too much back in the day....lol
