Ive created this thread to the suggestion of Darknight_DS . The PSP will have a great year , and Il try to put up the most important games , for all regions . Note this is a list for newer game , and they are in an absolut random order . There where already some great PSP games released in 08 ( ex : Pursuit Force : Extreme Justice , Downstream Panic , PES 08 ) . PS : my descriptions are low-quality , and I have probably tons of mistakes , but I dont want to copy/paste them from another site .
1 . God of War : Chains of Olympus . Kratos is back , this time around hes fighting beasts on the PSP . Will Ready at Dawn be able to impress us again , as they did with Daxter ? Well it seems so . Release date : March 04

4 . Dissidia : Final Fantasy . A brand new brawler game , filled with characters taken out from the Final Fantasy universe , this brawler promises a lot . The question is : will it deliver ? Release date : TBA 08 ( Japan ) .

16 . Kingdom Hearts : Birth By Sleep . The chances for this game to come out this year , even in Japan , are low , but still , because many sites report it as a Q4 release I will add it to this list . I dont think that nay presentation is needed . Release date : TBA .
