Because after playing PS3 games, most psp games are looking extremely bland to me (both graphically and content wise).

@BxN

I have a challenge for you. You have Uncharted 2? Play a few hours of it and then grab a NES emulator, and play any game for it ;) That's what it means to be able to play games not just for their looks, but for what they offer as well.

Well, as someone who has about 25 games for it (and more on pre-order), I think I'm doing my part of buying games for the thing. I guess it was just enough RPGs finally started coming to it, so I had to buy. Of course, my DS backlog doesn't help matters much either...

I have a good 20+ games for my PSP! the latest one I bought was Persona



Burning Typhoon on 04 November 2009

Because... I'm satisfied completely with:

Megaman: Powered up
Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection...

I usually rotate between those two games. Play one for 4-6 months... get bored of it, then switch back to the other...

This is going to actually explain why I sold my PSP, but it works in the context of this question also:

-Many games needed to be made with two analog sticks to function, and they suck controlling them with only one, i.e. Syphon Filter, Fight Night Round 3, etc.

-American support dried up. You have watered down racing games, watered down sports games, and Assassin's Creed. Those are your choices.

-Sony puts their B and C teams on the PSP, even when dealing with key A-level franchises. The one time they have an A-team make a game, the damn team puts in a C-level effort.

-The damn load times...oh the damn load times

-The D-Pad sucks. It's stiff and sticky. Anything with heavy utilization of the D-pad like Guilty Gear and Disgaea are a pain in the ass to control.

-The support just dries up altogether for months at a time. We'll have a few ridiculously niche titles scattered in that time for those that are into them, but nothing that captures most peoples' attention, including my own many times.

I get that a lot.
