    Best PSP RPG's?

    Recently picked up a PSP 3000 after my old 1000 broke and it has given me the push I needed into getting back into PSP gaming.

    For some reason I have the idea that I really want to pick up a couple of RPG's for it and was just wondering what some of you have played and what you would consider to be your favourites/best games for the handheld?

    Bit of an ARPG but I quite liked Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core.

    If you've not played FFVII though you may not get much out of it.

      Crisis Core, great shout. Still really good even if you haven't played FF7.

        Crisis Core is something I can actually recommend from first hand experience.

        If I were looking to play one today it'd probably be a toss-up between Persona 3, Trails in the Sky, and Tactics Ogre.

          I got absolutely nothing from Crisis Core. It was a bunch of straight paths leading to open arenas with dull combat, like so many Square games of the time. I barely felt it was a game. Likely just not my thing though because I felt the exact same about The World Ends With You, which so many others loved. Certainly CC is not what I'd think of when asked to recommend an RPG.

          Tactics Ogre and FF Tactics are two great SRPGs. The PSP version of FF Tactics has some weird stalls that do frustrate but it's still a great game. And while we're recommending Final Fantasy stuff, if you haven't already played FFIV to the point of being sick of it, the PSP FFIV Complete Chronicles is great and has tons of game in it.

              I really enjoyed Brave Story.

                Tactics Ogre is my favourite. I'm over 350hrs in and no where near done.

                I caned Crisis Core too including all of the side missions on hard, unless you bum FFVII I'd avoid it.

                Final Fantasy Tactics I've never liked all that much, even less so after TO.

                  Already sunk 100+ hours into persona 3 to completion and loved that. Crisis core may be a good shout and also trails in the sky, will look at some vids after work. I must admit I'm not really a tactics/turn based player.

                      If you want a good old school style JRPG then Crimon Gem Saga is a good, lesser known, choice.

                        Joanne D'Arc & Disgaea 2 come to mind as does Star Ocean 2: Second Evolution.

                          Lunar Silver Star is a nice choice if you've missed a previous version.

                            I have always wanted to play that since back in the PS1 days and still never have. It's good then?

                              Likewise. I enjoyed it immensely. Shame it didn't seem to last quite as long as your average JRPG. Think there's a demo for it on one of the PSN stores if you fancy trying it. It covers the first part of the game so no need to worry about spoilers.

                              Edit: Special mention to Tales of Eternia as well. Might suit you better most of these other choices as they're pretty much all turn based games.
