My copy of YS 1/2 Chronicles arrived last week. Got lumped with an import charge, but it's an awesome package. Some sterling releases out for the PSP this year, looking forward to Persona 3!

Anyone know if The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky is good, looks interesting but I'm not too sure about it.


Only two reviews online at the moment, both with good scores. http://www.metacritic.com/game/psp/the- ... in-the-sky

I ordered it right away as I'm a sucker for these fancy PSP packaging editions. :P

EDIT My PSP SE collection so far. :D

Picked up some new games today as I've finally given up on the Go.

Tactics Ogre Premium Edition
Valkyria Chronicles II
Eye of Judgement Legends
Archer MaClean's Mercury
WipEout Pulse
Half-Minute Hero
Gottlieb Pinball Classics
DisGaea Afternoon of Darkness
Mytran Wars
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite
Got the lot for £55 which I thought was all right.

My Memory Stick is no longer being recognised - it's not the stick itself, I put it in a USB card reader, plug that in my PC and everything's still there and not corrupted. But now I can't load up my saves, play music, watch videos, do anything basically!

Ive got this problem too. Ive got a 4gig stick but it won't recognise it for saves. Anyone got any ideas what the problem could be?

Wow, buy the lot for me please! (joking of course, I don't *HAVE* 55 quid hehe)

Bargain though for al that, Taccy Ogre woulda set you back 20 quid at least.

Raided the coin jar (90 quid, get in!) and did some long overdue trade in clear outs, so got the following today:
F1 Grand Prix (hardly see this in the local stores, only a fiver and i'm a sucker for PSP racing games)
Wipeout Pure (which for some reason I dont have...)
Tiger Wood 08 (cheaper than the 360 Tiger Woods 11..)
Final Fantasy (been meaning to get this for a long time)
Gangs of London (another one I dont see very often here)


was heavily tempted to get 3rd Birthday (it's the packaging damnit) but seeing as I'm not really fan of those sort of games, and have several lying around as it is decided against it. Takes the PSP collection to about 150-ish (i think), could have got quite a few more in the actually-pretty-decent GAME sale, but went for some DS loving instead. Cheap PSP games are so incredibly tempting though.

picked up Battlezone pre-owned for £2 - sort of imperfect bit of fun - but for £2 can hardly quibble.

I ummed and arrghed over 3rd Birthday - and it looks nice - but can't pay out £30 for PSP (or any games) at the moment.

I got 3rd Birthday from Amazon for £23, so already the price is slipping. It's worth paying full price for, anyway. A lengthy game with lots of replay value.

Trouble is, i know what'd happen:

I'd buy 3rd Birthday for say £20 in few weeks and it'd sit there with rest of stuff i've yet to try on various formats and time i did try it? Price would be lot less.

So holding off for few weeks at moment.

Lord of Arcana & Tactics Ogre dropped in price quite quickly, so I'm hoping to buy 3rd Birthday & Dissidia when they get a bit cheaper. Talking of Arcana, has anyone bought it? Reviews weren't very positive, but it's currently £11.99, so can't decide if it's worth a purchase or not. :?
