I actually own evey game you mentioned except GTA, Pokemon, and Kingdom Hearts for my PSP's and DS's and I know for a fact that they all lend themselve very well to short burst of gaming (except GoW which I couldn't really get into). I didn't finish any of the Metal Gears that I own on the PSP because they required a little too much time--even with their gameplay that caterd to handhelds a little more. Some game series can live in both worlds. Some can't. I think games like Call of Duty, Uncharted, God of War, Rainbow Six (which I've played a grand total of 30 minutes since I purchased it along with my PSP). Resistance Retribution, and others won't fare very well in a handheld market place critically or commercially. RPG's (like the one's you mentioned), puzzle games, racing games, and sports game will do muc better because they can offer a ton of fun and a feeling of accomplishment in bite sized doses (like mobile phone games tend to do.). Of course, I'm just a gamer. None of what I'm saying should be considered fact. It's just my view on things. |
As someone who has owned GTA for PSP i dont think it lends itself well to short burst at all, but to each his own and i do respect your opinions. But your simply wrong about GOW on PSP it has done well critcally AND commercially (at least the first one did). COD would have done better if Acti wasnt stupid and kept it on just DS, especially since the lone PSP game did more than any of the DS entries, Uncharted remains to be seen
