6 Cheap Video Games for Your Playstation Portable (PSP)

Playstation Portable Games for Under $30

Let's face it; the PSP, or Playstation Portable, doesn't exactly have a flawless game library. However, there are a lot of great games out there for the system that'll eat up your time without wasting your money. Here are some of the best PSP games out there, many of which are “Greatest Hits” and therefore cost less than 20 bucks.

1.Lumines – This is Tetris for the next generation, an addictive and frenetic blend of techno music that isn't annoying and fast, unique gameplay. It's not just another puzzle game; the graphics are absolutely dazzling and you'll find yourself playing a single game for upwards of an hour just trying to get to the next board. It's very Zen in that you won't be getting frustrated; it's just absolutely fantastic fun. Just make sure you've got some time to devote to this game, because once you buy it, it's not going to let you go.

2.Star Wars: Battlefront II – As far as Playstation II to PSP conversions go, Battlefront II is one of the closest. There are some problems with navigation, but for the most part the controls are pretty tight and you get the same addictive rush you get with the bigger console version. It's both fun and not too deep, plus the levels are fairly short, making this a fantastic game when you've got to kill some time on an airplane or bus.

3.Megaman X: Maverick Hunter – Old school gamers usually decide to go with the Nintendo DS because the Playstation Portable doesn't really have the same potential for older games (unless of course you hack the firmware to run old SNES games). Megaman X: Maverick Hunter X is an exception to the rule, though; it's a remake of one of the greatest Super Nintendo games of all times, updated with new graphics, cut scenes, and tweaked levels to make it better than ever. Great for fans of the original video game and newcomers alike.
