Disgaea: Afternoon Of Darkness

$55.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i havent finished the game but i really like it bacause you can control your characters when not in battle mode and it has the complexity i love in an rpg.
from www.amazon.com
it might be a bit repetitive to some, but for fans of strategy rpgs, this game is worth every penny!
from www.amazon.com
the game should be familiar to anyone who has played the original disgaea, but as a refresher for those who haven't: disgaea is a turn-based tactical role playing game.
from www.amazon.com
simply the best tactical rpg out to date and this coming from me a huge ff tactics fan is a big endorsement of how well this game was made and how much consideration for the players the creators put
from www.amazon.com
of course there were some downsides to being stuck in my room with a strategy rpg in which it takes a good little while to get anything done.

Legend Of Heroes

$30.00 Est. at Amazon

from gamespot.com
"a competent and lengthy role-playing game"
from www.amazon.com
while the legend of heroes doesn't make any truly groundbreaking new innovations in the rpg genre, it is nonetheless a very enjoyable game.
from www.amazon.com
if they can get past the grammatical errors, rpg fans will probably enjoy this game.
from www.newegg.com
as long as you can overlook the fact every 3rd rpg that was ever made uses the same story then its not too bad.other thoughts: if your looking for old nes/snes/genesis style rpg gameplay on your psp
from www.amazon.com
i have played many rpg's in the past, and several for the psp and this game is by far the best i have seen.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of Lions

Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of The Lions for PSP

$17.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's a strategy rpg, that has a really good story, insanely addictive game play, and almost endless customization.
from www.amazon.com
as soon as i get it replaced, i intend to pick up right where i left off with this game, and i would suggest any hardcore rpg fans out there to pick this up to.
from www.amazon.com
the game play for this game is strategy rpg.

before landing on a battle area & the ability to redo a move should it be a mistake.) quite a few tactical rpg's support as unforgiving a battle system as the original final fantasy tactics.

from 1up.com
"the online multiplayer hunting rpg goes portable with cooking theme intact."
from www.amazon.com
even though that this game is an rpg, it does not feature a hardcore plot, emotional overlords, or that epic feel that a traditional rpg has.

although it is technically an rpg, there is really no storyline as such.
from www.amazon.com
unlike most rpg's the game is not focused on leveling up but rather on skill and strategy.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

$28.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's true the game's a little linear for an rpg, but crisis core is perfect for the psp because the missions are great to do while on-the-go.
from www.amazon.com
this game is kinda repetive and the story really doesnt make sense that much but it was a fun game and it took me along time to play so if u need a good rpg game for psp the crisis core is the best
from www.amazon.com
i bought the game reluctant because it wasn't a turn based fighting rpg, and i'm glad i did.
from www.amazon.com
if you're looking for a great rpg for the psp, this is the one.

PoPoLo Crois

however, by the time i realised it, i had already played through the entire thing - something i rarely manage with rpg's (i get bored before i'm done with them).

from www.amazon.com
oddly, the game's sequel, "symphony of the night," was released in the us, but it took the series in a brand new direction that fused castlevania with metroid-style exploration and rpg elements.

i wish they'd come out with another symphony of the night sequel that actually followed the same format and had the role playing aspects and all the hidden items that symphony of the night has.

$22.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.overstock.com
this game has a surprising amount of depth for a psp rpg even though it's fairly linear & the hack & slash gets a little old.
from www.amazon.com
there are some attack skills that have been improved, but overall, sony has done little to improve on the idea of fantast rpg.
from www.amazon.com
this is not a deep rpg or anything just simple mindless fun.

after that, the novelty of the game(it was my first rpg) wears off.

the game also allows for an rpg inspired leveling sytem for you character's stats, which does tend to make them ridiculously overpowered if the slightest bit of though is put into it.
from www.amazon.com
there's no story to speak of(unlike the japanese game that was released last year in japan, which was loaded with rpg-esque material).
