Poll.

Which Sony Consoles have you got?
What did you think to the PSP?
Which were your favouite game/games on those consoles/handheld?

I have had all the consoles, but only the PS3 is set up.

I quite liked the PSP, with exception to trying to watch a film on it.

For the Psone I liked FFVIII the most. The Guardian Forces, the ability to draw magic, and junction magic, is interesting idea.

For PS2, it has to be Disgaea Hour of Darkness. It was the first Tactical RPG game that I've played. And to be honest, it's the only one I really like. The ability to go into weapons and improve them, was brilliant imo. Taking a common sword and upgrading it. Was awesome. Sure you can buy and find new weapons, but this was a free weapon.

And for PS3, Assassin's Creed 2: Brotherhood. Sure One started it. But I feel there has been so much improvement since the series began.

I've just got a PS2. I used to have a PSX, but I think someone gave it away or some nonsense like that.

I don't have a PSP of my own, but I have a copy of Mega Man: Powered UP that I play when my friend brings his PSP over.

I have a PS2 right now, and I used to own a PS1. I doubt I'll be bothering with the PS3.

There were a lot of PS1 games I enjoyed. Crash Team Racing and Spyro 2 stick out in my mind. Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy IX, and Final Fantasy Anthology were all great, too.

I haven't really played anything on the PS2 except for Final Fantasy XII, which is pretty cool.

I have all of the Playstation consoles, although I bought the PSX and PS2 near the end of their cycle as opposed to the PS3 which I bought relatively early.

The PSP definitely had some potential and some pretty good games on it, although not nearly as many as I would have liked to see. All in all not a bad first effort on Sony's part. Really looking forward to the PSP2 (aka NGP).

For the PSX it would probably be FFVII, Tactics or BoF3. I did enjoy FVIII, however there were things about that game that just didn't really sit too well with me in comparison to it's predecessors and immediate successors (although I am not a fan of anything after X so far).

My favorites on the PS2 would be Disgaea 1+2, Star Ocean 3, and FFX. I really can't say enough about the Disgaea series though. Probably the best part about those games is the fact that they take traditional RPG and strategy game elements and make them completely hilarious. Reading weapon descriptions in that game never ceases to make me grin. It absolutely refuses to take itself seriously and I think that's brilliant.

As for the PS3, I haven't really been able to dive into things as much as I'd like with the limited budget I have in terms of both time and money. However, I do have to say that I thought Valkyria Chronicles had a unique and fun battle system while also boasting a similarly unique and beautiful art direction.

And my favorite PSP game so far would probably be Phantasy Star Portable or Persona 3, but I'm going to say Phantasy Star because it's an original game and not a remake.

^ I played the demo of Valkyria Chronicles, brought the full game and never got around to playing it. Seems a very beautiful game.

And I likewise have a horrible habit of buying new games without finishing my old ones. Valkyria Chronicles just so happens to be the game I got the closest to finishing on my PS3.

For the PS1, Final Fantasy IX, no surprises there. For PS2, that's a hard one...I don't want to go with a Final Fantasy Title, but really, the only game sticking out in my head right now is FFXII. As far as the PSP, I have one, but my collection of games is too slim to choose a favorite (unfortunately, being a student limits my options). Same goes for the PS3 - I have it in my apartment right now (not for long, it's going back to my mom's soon for my little brother), but I don't have a wide enough collection to really decide what my favorite it.

I have a PS1 and a PS2, and my brother has a PS3 that I play occasionally.

I don't really have too strong feelings either way for PSP, as I don't own one, but I think if I had one I would still prefer my DS (if not only for POKEMANZ)

Favorite Games:
PS1: Crash Bandicoot series (Warped being best), Spyro series (Ripto's Rage pwns), Metal Gear Solid, JET MOTHERFLIPPIN' MOTO
PS2: Ratchet & Clank (favorite's probably Up Your Arsenal), Shadow of the Colossus, Kingdom Hearts II, God of War
PSP: Only have really played God of War
PS3: Assassin's Creed, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is getting pretty high on my list (I know these are all multi-platform, shaddup)
