God Hand is quite possibly one of the greatest games I've ever played. Metacritic score isn't bad, but IGN inparticular is way off.

Phantasy Star Portable
Final Fantasy I PSP
Final Fantasy II PSP

All three of these games only got in the 60's from Metacritic, but after playing them, I can honestly say I think they should have scored much higher, I mean, if only in the 70's, or lower 80's would be great for them...



I thought Crimson Gem Saga and Brave Story:New Traveler for the PSP should have scored higher. I also agree with Lost Odyssey.

I kind of got the impression that IGN got two levels in and gave up.



Evil Zone - I almost didn't even try this game because EGM gave it a bad review when it came out, but I decided to rent it anyway and had a blast with it. Its not the greatest fighter ever, but I like the characters and while it does have a bit of a simplistic battle system, it works.

Lufia - I almost always see people praisingLufia II while usually dissing the original. I personally loved it, but then again it was my one of my first RPGs, so maybe that makes me a bit biased, but I still love it even today.

And just checked the gamerankings scores :62.23% and 69.17% respectively. That's just messed up. Especially messed up that Lufia didn't get at least 80%, when I would rate it above 90.
