Le Playstation Portable

Sony's PSP console could be defined as everything gone wrong about the console business. A mega seller in terms of hardware, which somehow does not translate into software sales due to rampant and easy piracy on the PlayStation Portable itself. As a result, many game developers have abandoned the platform in search of other 'safer' alternatives.
A sad reality, but true. Just take a look at the recent releases of games. You'd be lucky if 1 good game gets released that month. But fret not, one developer, the mighty SquareEnix, leeching off the success of the PSP in Japan (and their more, legal methods of gaming) is really throwing themselves at the PSP, unleashing not one, not two, nor three, but FOUR major franchises, shoving it down our throats until we're happy. And oh yes, I am happy. 2009 is building up to be an ORGASMIC year for the PSP.

The first we have, is an action RPG collaboration between Disney and SquareEnix, a prequel to their wildly successfull Kingdom Hearts.
Gamers and Gamettes, please meet, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep


Next up, is another of powerhouse franchise back in the days of the PlayStation, which somehow did not make the transition into the PlayStation 2 and beyond. An original SquareSoft franchise, featuring one of the hottest babes in video games, I introduce, Ms Aya Brea celebrating her 3rd Birthday


The third one, is Squares longest and most successful running franchise around. Originally created as the final hope, a swan song as a perfect sendoff to the end, only to find itself striking gold and making swan songs after swan songs after swan song (which fits the fact that the actual swan song itself was found to be false). And their latest iteration is the biggest project yet, a release of 3 difference types on 3 platforms, gamers, I present to you, exclusive for the PSP platform, Final Fantasy Agito XIII.


The fourth one, is from the same franchise, and is more like a homage to every single part of the franchise. Featuring the protagonist and the villian from every single main Final Fantasy series (from I all the way through to XII), it is promised to be a monster fightfest to sooth the hungry fanboys. Without further ado, DISSIDIA: Final Fantasy
