Very good port of a very good game, should definetly be on the P

The game itself is a port of PSU and PSU:AOTI, featuring a single player mode with multiple endings and ad-hoc mode for up to 4 players and a couple of modified content. The synthesis of items was completely removed, being a huge timesink very dependent on the MMO nature of the first games. Also, item drop rates seem to have been improved for a more leisurely play style, without having to grind endlessly for a good pair of pistols or sabers.
The port of the game was really well made in my opinion. The game visuals looks very good, the sound quality is great and the controls feel so natural that anyone would think the game was made for the PSP in the first place. There are a couple slowdowns happening when there are a lot of stuff on the screen, like 4 players on ad-hoc mode alongside many enemies, but I dont think its enough to hinder the game enjoyment a single bit.
If you're already familiar with the series or if you enjoy hack'n'slash, dungeon crawling and RPG games, I can't recommend this title enough.
It's a strange thing this game is not on the Playstation Store yet, but I really hope SEGA will put it there, so more people (specially PSP GO owners) can enjoy this awesome game.
