Why Buy it? It is very rare to see a portable game with this many features and mini-games and that most of them are a blast to play, especially the pinball, with an included three tables and free new tables every week the game is a blast to play. With all of these mini games you almost forget there is a basketball game in here, luckily when you play the basketball portion of this title it is top notch. Between the core basketball modes and the mini-games we also have the amazingly fun and deep Conquest mode, this mode has you choosing a team and attempting to take over NBA cities by 'attacking' the cities and playing their resident team. You can then add players, strengthen your cities and eventually take over the world of NBAnia (I made that name up), it is a great mode and a lot of fun. The title is further boosted by an almost completely consistent 60fps while you play and a great control scheme. If you are a fan of basketball and have a PSP you need to have this game.

Crush
Possibly one of the strangest games to debut on the PSP, Crush is a puzzle/platformer that is based in the hero's mind. Danny is an insomniac who is being given treatment that allows him to traverse his mind to try and solve the problems that cause his sleepless nights. The result is a surreal looking game that melds 2-D and 3-D elements, as you progress you 'Crush' the level which changes the 2-D platformer into a 3-D world. By changing the view type different paths, challenges and fixtures change which in turn allows you to pass impassable sections, you then switch back to 2-D and keep going. It is a completely original concept and a great implementation that is a joy to play, Crush is available right now.

Why Buy it? This is a surreal game that hooks you from the start with the original and entertaining story of a young man trying to find a way to stop his insomnia by entering his own mind. The gameplay is introduced gradually and never overwhelms despite the seemingly complex idea of switching from 2-D to 3-D as you progress through the levels. The graphic presentation is amazing and really makes you feeling like you are in an Escher style world and the amazingly designed puzzles will keep you playing on and on, this is a one of a kind game for any platform and is a must have!
