Top Secret Massive PSP Game This Week

[wraggster]

News via Spong (http://news.spong.com/article/10378)

So it looks as though Famitsu, by way of print or the Global Earthwide Meganet, will reveal a massive PSP title at some point this week. The magazine's journalists cryptically tell us that it's a furthering of an existing franchise, leading to some wild speculation as to what PSP owners - somewhat underwhelmed with the console's software library to date - can expect.

Devil May Cry has been mooted, as has the true successor to the Final Fantasy VII obsession, an obsession still without remedy or cure amongst RPG gamers. God of War for PSP has its believers, and Kingdom Hearts is a front-runner, though it's more likely that GOW would see a Western debut appearance on PSP.

SPOnG's guess is an all-new PSP Sonic, a guess we thought of in a hurry after remembering that our first guess had already been revealed. How about this: tell us in the forum what you expect it to be. If you're right, we'll buy you the game and send it to you. If you don't have a PSP, we'll send you something else, which might be rubbish, might be amazing.

The Disney RPG looks a fave to us ;)

[J vs W]

I vote Kingdom Hearts!

[dthpsc]

Vice City Stories maybe? Hell, that's what I'm waiting for.

[roberto125919]

I say (hope)... Gran Turismo: Mobile (which they have been awfully quiet about lately)

[D0N]

I say Gran Turismo as well.

[remansano]

If I ever win, I'm sure I will be only one voting this:
Battlefield sequel
=P

[kyle2194]

Call of Duty 3?

[brainpan]

Please please please let it be a sequel to FF6. Or better yet a 3-d remake with a better localization and enhanced graphics,

[pimpjuice10]

monster hunter?

[pimpjuice10]

metal gear solid: digital graphic novel

[ACID]

[grin.ch]

Please - Let it be Gran Turismo Mobile!!! That was supposed to be a launch title.

[BazzaLB]

Crash Bandicoot: PSP lol

[jrsmaster411]

[jigglytom]

[hatebreeder]

[RemixUnlimited]

Please please please let it be a sequel to FF6. Or better yet a 3-d remake with a better localization and enhanced graphics,

Oh man, that would be to good to be true.

[Briggzy11]

It could be a new getaway game :P

[amadeus]

REZ

I'ld love it to be that....

[SuckerPunch]

Does only the first person who guesses a game get it.

If not, I'll guess Devil May Cry

If so, since someone already guessed Devil May Cry, I'll guess God of War.

If that too is a nono since it's mentioned in the opening post, I'll be the first to guess a sequel to Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror.

[10shu]

I ll say:

gran turismo
god of war
or
finalfantasy7

[Dbgtgoten]

erm not sure but i will put my cash on these 3

Naruto,Resident Evil, or Final Fantasy awww yeah

[Lumir]

It has to be either a Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts, if the hype is to be unchallenged.

[nightcrawler420]

[Shadowblind]

I have supported KH from minute1!

REALLLLY hope thats what it is :D

[cfred]

It will be a new sonic game.

[corenskae]

my moneys on silent hill

[Reficul]

its obviously final fantasy 8-2

put the pieces together!

[Shiaoran]

A Final Fantasy sequel?
(VII-2, VIII-2, X-3)

Dragon Quest VIII or Dragon Quest IX?

Elders Scroll IV: Oblivion?

These would be major games for sure.

[pokothehobo]

i vote a final fantasy!

[BelmontSlayer]

Its gotta be a Final Fantasy: REMAKE. Hopefully a remake of IV or VI. I would kill for a 3D FFIV.

[FullGore]

Its gotta be Devil May Cry!

[stotheamuel]

i say it again... ultimate ghosts and goblins... hahaha pwn3d

[takayuki-kun]

Resident evil :D

[psplaya201]

i say it's gta: vice city stories

[psplaya201]

u know what it's gonna be another socom or ratchet and clank

[Voltron]

We need more RPG's on the PSP dammit. Recent games like Legend of Heroes & Astonishia Story are decent appetizers, and Valkyrie Profile Lenneth & Blade Dancer are just 1 week away, but I want MORE.

I hope its an RPG!

[oafan]

i would have to agree with previous posts that maybe it could be kingdom hearts or devil may cry, but i would like a zone of the enders psp game.

[RemixUnlimited]

Why is eveyone saying sonic? That game has sucked since it hit GameCube. It would be pitiful to see sonic on PSP and if SEGA was making it (100% chance, duh) they would not be able to keep there mouth shut about it.

[pimpjuice10]

Need For Speed: Carbon

[Cloud_35]

The info makes me think about Kingdom Hearts...

But it's nearly impossible. Nothing has been released for it.

I bet a little more for Crisis Core, Silent Hill Origins or Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops...

"Disney RPG"... maybe "Mickey mouse vs Sephiroth"??? :)

[BrooksyX]

I think it would be awesome if sega ported sonic adventure for the psp!

[flcl92]

Kingdom Hearts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheTruth345]

Kingdom Hearts :cool:

[scabbard]

I say it will be another iteration of the James Bond Series.

[creoleplane]

REZ

I'ld love it to be that....


That would be perfect, especially if it came with a little vibration addon with it. Although the Dreamcast version of REZ will always be the best.

Please don't confuse linear story based adventure games like Final Fantasy with RPGS. This bugs me so damn much. Final Fantasy and 99% of Japanese "RPGS" arn't rpg's there adventure games, there far to linear and choiceless to be anything else. RPG's are games such as Oblivion, Ultima, and Kings Quest.

[ACID]

Elder Scrolls thats it. LOL

[AtariFreek]

psplaya201 Has A Point With Ratchet And Clank, They Are Making One, And There Hasn't Been Much News About It Since The Previous Issue Of OPM. Also James Bond, Maybe Second Sight (MY SECOND FAVE GAME ON PS2!!!) Or It Could Be...Dare I Say IT???? DOGZ!!! THE ULTIMATE CHEAP RIP OFF OF A FAVE NINTENDO GAME!!! YAY!! Those Are Possibilities Buuuut...KH RULLEZ!!! Seriously Thought They Made A KH Game On GameBoy To Bridge The Story, So Why Not Do The Same ->KH->Chain Of Memorys (GB)->KH 2->Rope Of Connections (lol PSP J/K)->KH 3

[reekoy_3]

pacman!

i do hope you realise 'RPG' stands for 'Role Playing Game'? ie; you play the role of a character in a story...

it's not where you make the story your self. you play the role of a character in a story, get it? final fantasy is most definately an rpg and dont you forget it.

i know no one's going to agree with me, but i hope its a sequel to ffix...that was the best final fantasy ever in my oppinion...

Whoa! Sorry boss, but FF games are indeed RPG's in my book. But if it makes you happy I can call them Adventure/RPG's. Either way, the PSP needs more of them. Can't wait for next week and Valkyrie Profile Lenneth.

P.S. I agree that FFIX kicks rules. The throwback to a more original medieval style as opposed to futuristic won me over big time.

[Crimson_Lotus]

A roleplaying game (RPG) is a type of game in which players assume the roles of characters and collaboratively create stories. Gameplay progresses according to a predetermined system of rules and guidelines, within which players may improvise freely. Players' choices shape the direction and outcome of roleplaying games.

Characters in roleplaying games are usually represented by a number of statistics. Many game systems make distinctions between two key types of statistic: attributes and skills.

Attributes are statistics all characters possess: strength, agility, and intelligence are common examples. These are ranked, often on a numeric scale, so that a player can gauge the character's capabilities. For example, a character's strength rating could be used to determine the likelihood that the character can lift a certain weight.

Skills are abilities that only some characters possess, such as negotiation, horseback riding, and marksmanship. Game systems often define skills that are genre-appropriate. For example, Asian adventures commonly emphasize martial arts. Fantasy settings include magic. Science-fiction settings may contain psionics. However, some skills are found in several genres: a medieval rogue and a Wild West outlaw may both be very proficient at throwing knives.

[yamaneko]

Soul Calibur III POrtable

[amadeus]

That would be perfect, especially if it came with a little vibration addon with it. Although the Dreamcast version of REZ will always be the best.

Not sure if the UMD would skip with a vibration pack....
But given what they released with the original pack some kind of "wearable" pack would be possible.:eek:

Seeing as people are having more than one guess heres mine.

ICO
Shadow of the Colossus

[Ichijoe]

I'm sticking with what was my faveorite RPG of all-time.
Shenmue. (e.g. It must be Shenmue III)

[Accordion]

ico would be my dream

or rez with custom soundtracks.

erm
a new crash game, the liscence has moved wholly to japan, so its possible...
dark cloud...

[addicted]

metal gear solid: digital graphic novel

I don't know where you've been, but that's already out and about.
