The PSP<\/a> was Sony’s first foray into trying to dethrone Nintendo as the king of the handheld market. While the console did not reach the same commercial heights as the Nintendo DS, it was still an incredible device in its own right.<\/p>\n

It amassed a large library of games over its lifespan, populated with some of the finest RPGs ever made. While many of the best games have since been ported to other consoles, several RPGs are still stuck on the older piece of hardware, forcing players to buy a PSP or a Vita to play the game via the PlayStation Store.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

This prequel to\u00a0Final Fantasy VII<\/em><\/a> gave fans something they wanted for years, an opportunity to learn more about Zack Fair.<\/a> The combat varies greatly from the seventh mainline entry,\u00a0but it was still well-received in its day. Unfortunately, this game was never put on the PlayStation store, making a physical copy the only way to play. Perhaps we’ll receive a proper remake in the future as a part of the\u00a0Final Fantasy VII<\/em> series of remakes.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

This remake of the classic tactical JRPG adds much-needed improvements and conveniences to make\u00a0Tactics\u00a0Ogre: Let Us Cling Together<\/i> a more enjoyable experience. It is a good thing the gameplay is fun because the story sure isn’t. The conflict makes for one of the darker RPGs, removing mysticism and magic in favor of political strife and personal drama. We’d sure love a re-release or full-fledged remake on modern consoles.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Jeanne d’Arc<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Some RPGs find inspiration in the strangest places. Jeanne d’Arc is a fictional retelling of the Joan of Arc’s story. With demons populating the battlefield, it is clear this game does not take place in the real world’s historical Europe. The gameplay will be familiar to anybody who played RPGs like\u00a0Final Fantasy Tactics<\/em>, but it is notably less challenging. Still, the unique aesthetic helps it stand out.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Perhaps the weakest entry on this list,\u00a0The 3rd Birthday<\/em> is the third game in the cult-classic\u00a0Parasite Eve\u00a0<\/em>franchise. The gameplay should be somewhat familiar to fans of the older games, and the story even features characters from the prior titles.<\/p>\n

While it was nice to see the franchise return after so long, it was not exactly what fans were hoping for. Maybe a proper console continuation will come out in the future.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Phantasy Star Portable<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

After\u00a0Phantasy Star IV<\/em>, the numbering convention of the JRPG\u00a0<\/em>series<\/a> went out the window. The franchise found itself on numerous consoles, including the PSP.\u00a0Phantasy Star Portable<\/em> is a sequel to\u00a0Phantasy Star Universe<\/em> on the PS2. The PSP game was popular enough to warrant a sequel, though neither game has ever been ported to other systems. The sequel even features a multiplayer mode. The PSP was one of the first consoles with in-depth online functionality, so it was great to see games take advantage of it.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Wild Arms XF<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The\u00a0Wild Arms\u00a0<\/em>series had its best time on the original PlayStation, but it still lived on past Sony’s first console. Where the series mainly dabbled in turn-based RPGs,\u00a0Wild Arms XF\u00a0<\/em>is a\u00a0tactical RPG.<\/a> The genre made a nice home for itself on the console. This was the last game released in the\u00a0Wild Arms\u00a0<\/em>franchise, though developer Media.Vision is still going strong, making renowned JRPGs like\u00a0Valkyria Chronicles<\/i>.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Persona 3 Portable<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Persona 3\u00a0<\/em>Portable<\/em> is indeed a port of a PlayStation 2 game.<\/a> However, there is enough new content and changes to warrant playing through the game again. Players can now play as a female character, control their allies in combat, and even run into new characters from Persona 4<\/em> and even\u00a0Catherine.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, none of these new features were ever brought to other platforms in a port, so be prepared to whip out the PSP for this version of the game.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Brave Story: New Traveler<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

It is pretty rare to see an RPG based on a novel series, but this is exactly what\u00a0Brave Story: New Traveler\u00a0<\/em>is. The game is a loose interpretation of the\u00a0Brave Story<\/em> series, featuring some of the same characters but telling a new story. A young boy is taken to a distant land to complete a mission and save his sick friend in the real world. While the game was received positively, it never received a port to other consoles.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span><\/h2>\n

1 <\/span>Valkyria Chronicles 2<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The first\u00a0Valkyria Chronicles<\/em> is a cult classic relatively easy to play today thanks to the PS4 re-release. The sequel was only released on the PSP<\/a>\u00a0and has yet to receive a port of any kind. Even more unfortunate, the third game never even saw release in the west. Don’t let the portable format make discourage you; the game was still warmly received and a worthy successor.\u00a0The most recent release,\u00a0Valkyria Chronicles 4<\/em>, came out on the PS4.<\/p>\n
