A decade and a half after release, Crush remains a smart and challenging puzzler that manages to tell an engaging story between brain-breaking levels. See our Crush review. Developed by Ready at Dawn, the studio that would go on to create PS4 title The Order: , Daxter gave the wisecracking Naughty Dog sidekick his own game to run, jump, and flyswat his way through.

The studio was an undersung hero for Sony in this era, and Ghost of Sparta is proof that the developer had serious chops. While the controls occasionally frustrate, Ghost of Sparta mostly does a great job of translating the button-mashing combos of the console entries to the scaled-down control scheme of the PSP.
And it does all that while providing a visually impressive for adventure with graphics roughly on par with the PS2. See our God of War: Ghost of Sparta review. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is maybe most significant for bringing the old-school GTA gameplay to a generation of players whose first experience with the satirical open-world series began with 3.

Lumines Remastered is available on modern platformers, including Nintendo Switch. See our Lumines review. In this turn-based tactics game, cards control everything. Want to move? You need a card for that. Fire your weapon? Prior to a mission, you need to build a deck that you think will be effective, and this interplay between stealth and strategy makes for a surprisingly compelling mixture. See our Metal Gear Acid review.
In addition to the main campaign, Peace Walker featured multiplayer modes and short challenge missions for added variety. Though it was occasionally frustrating due to its sparse checkpoints, Peace Walker was a great Metal Gear story to have on the go. Levels are cleverly constructed but give players a simple goal: Get from the start to the finish while collecting as much gold as possible along the way. The aesthetic presentation matches this simplicity with a gray background and plain geometric platforms.
The PSP version featured various multiplayer modes, including Tag and Domination, and added the ability to share created maps with other players. Unfortunately, multiplayer servers were shut down in
