For those of you who own or used to own a PSP, what are or were your favourite games on the system? I'm just wondering since I'm gonna be buying some more this weekend and want to discover some more cool games to play.

I also want to expand my genres since I've only been playing shooters, racing, and strategy on the PSP, so if you have any games you'd like to mention from any other genres, please do! (If they are one of the genres I named, it's still fine, though.)

Final Fantasy II, Crisis Core (remake is also pretty good), Jenne D'Arc, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (fighter game, EUR only for English translation)
Summertime days, passing gently
Sunlight, leading to an encounter;
Dreams that don't want to end
Continue onwards toward the next day
While she waits in the air.

Thanks for the recommendations! I think I won't be able to find the FMAB game though since I live in Canada, but if the store has some import games I might get some!

Star Ocean: The Second Story got remade again for modern systems. I'd recommend it over the PSP version.

Breath of Fire 3, Tales of Eternia (EU).

Ys SEVEN, Valkyrie Profile LENNETH. But these got ported to recent platforms.

There were also some games that loads really long on UMDs.
And definitely skip Star Ocean 2 and get the remake.

Ys Felghana. If you want something short yet challenging, can't go wrong with this.

Ys Seven. It's no Felghana but still one of the better Ys. Has the best antagonist in the series.

I think /v/'s official list is 90% good.
https://vsrecommendedgames.fandom.com/wiki/PlayStation_Portable
I personally disagree on Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (not very fun to play) and Metal Gear Acid (too weird). Kinda mixed on Gran Turismo (it has hundreds of cars, and dozens of tracks but the 4 cars per race limit is too low)

Trying to avoid what others have said of obvious games in series. Of many anime fan translations, obvious JRPGs or Sony first party.

PSP puzzle games Mercury Meltdown, Cube, Exit (on DS also), Crush, Practical Intelligence Quotient 1 & 2, Lumines (or get PS4 remaster).

Coded Arms (roguelike shooter with basic procedural generated levels and fair upgrades),

Coded Arms Contagion (more linear, annoying number de-cypher, otherwise fair game)

GTI Club (good arcade racer, soccer regular and gold soccer ball modes, potato, bomb, time trial, racing modes, fair track layouts to race or have small multiplayer fun with, fair upgrades/skins, once played through a fair bit repeats so either repeat for other stuff or just end it there)

I think NFS Shift PSP is probably a fair game.

The TOCA series on there, if you want more of a campaign and different car classes than what Gran Turismo (fair to car collect or do driving missions but otherwise if wanting more of a campaign look elsewhere) offers play these. They are ports of TOCA 2/3. So V8 Supercars in Aussie, DTM in Germany or others. Racer Driver in UK or US or something. I think its' like Race Driver 2006 or something. They have a lot of content. The DS version is already but the PSP ones I think are closer to the PS2 while the DS version does a fair job of being similar but has fair challenges or the track editor PSP doesn't have.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOCA_Race_Driver_2

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOCA_Race_Driver_3

EA Replay or Sega Genesis/Mega Driver collection are fair for PSP retro game collections.

Warhammer 40K Squad Command is a fair PSP/DS tactics game.

The Dissidia games were amazing. I'd daresay the best action rpg FF games.

Fate Extra was pretty good. Mostly visual novel, but you get to explore like you were a master in a grail war, finding your enemy's weaknesses and trying to win the grail. Sequel is Japanese and EN unofficial patch only though..

Yugioh Tag Force games were pretty good and like the last RPG Yugioh games. Even had pseudo date sim mechanics. I think like the 6th and 7th are only Japanese and EN patch again..

Valkyria Chronicles 3 is like the best and my favorite entry and its stuck on PSP. Japanese and EN unofficial patch only though..
Valkyria Chronicles 2 is still good and in english, though many would say its the worst entry.

I really really enjoyed the psp God of War games, too despite never touching the series before them. Chain of Memories and Ghost of Sparda. Solid action games.

I loved playing Project Diva, DJMax Portable series, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy Tactics, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories, Dissidia 012, Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai, Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai 2, Persona 3, GoW and the Monster Hunter series on the PSP.

@DGemu I used to play Dissidia non-stop. I miss those days u.u I had like over 1,000 hours on that game haha

Hear me out; Metal Gear Acid 2. It's a fusion between classic, overhead Metal Gear stealth gameplay, and card game mechanics. Imagine something like Inscryption, but instead of the rogue-like mechanics, it plays out more like a traditional Metal Gear game, with your cards acting as your actions on the map. Or you could just play Peace Walker. It's perfectly serviceable on the PSP, but there exists better versions. Whereas the Acid series has stayed exclusive to the PSP. I never played the first one.

Others have said it, but Persona 3 Portable. It's the only iteration so far with a FeMC, and the option to save a certain character, depending on choices one makes.
