There are some excellent games in that list, but I still have no interest in a PSP - whatsoever. Every single one of those games would be better on a Playstation 2 (or any other modern console). I'll stick to handheld games when traveling, and to console games at home thanks.

What game wouldn't be better on a Wii that's on the DS? Brain Age? Aren't they bringing that to the Wii? Dragon Quest 9? I'm sure that could be better on the Wii. I'd prefer New Super Mario Bros. on the Wii because I played the classics on a home console.

My point here is that you could argue that point for any handheld game. The point of the handheld is that it's portable. Being able to play MGS, GoW, DMC, KH (oh wait, wasn't that on the GBA?! oh no!) is a nice thing.

Portable Ops was designed around the PSP so that the missions were short. A whole new idea of recruiting soldiers was added. Sure, that game could be better on a console, but the missions would have to be made longer, so a direct port wouldn't really work on a console.

Tactics is a great game for the road. Monster Hunter was designed around portable gaming as well.

I would be perfectly content if you just said you don't prefer the PSP games, but this comparison to PS2 franchises makes no sense. Why are all the Nintendo franchises good on the DS but the PS2 franchises aren't good on the PSP?
