Developer Ready At Dawn announced today that their upcoming Playstation Portable title, God of War: Chains of Olympus has been delayed from a holiday 2007 release date to March 4, 2008. They also announced that a UMD demo of the game will be available at some point later this year.

So uh, what else were PSP owners looking forward to this year?

    You could make a decent case for the PSP having a better rest of the year than the DS. Except for the fact that Phantom Hourglass, a supposedly legendary zelda game is coming out this fall. If not for that though...

    Next year the DS is going to own though.

    Seriously. Jeanne D'Arc, Castlevania, Crisis Core, we just got Monster Hunter 2 over here... it's not a bleak outlook at all, despite what the OP is trying to imply.

    I know you were joking but it was still horrible. Logan is not a super rare name that Marvel discovered in a cupboard, it's pretty common.

    Anyway, how is this news? It was always listed as an early 2008 game. Most of the teasers saying 'late 2007' were just hinting at the demos release (which should still be this month).

    Also, I'm a little interested in Phantom Hourglass but won't be picking it up due to the fact that I never finished Wind Waker. I'll probably only pick one game up for the DS this year and that's FFXII: Revenant Wings (assuming Square Enix bring it over here before the end of the year). IMO, the PSP lineup for the rest of the year is FAR superior than the DS lineup.

    Btw, you missed out Socom: Tactical Strike. I thought the other PSP Socom's were mediocre but this one looks like it suits the PSP a lot more. Plus it's being developed by the guys that co-developed Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror.

    That and it gets the attention of gamers. If you go to a forum and say: "I've never played a Zelda game." People always respond like: "WTF?!!?!? WHAT ARE YOU LAME?!!?". So I figure he's just getting some attention...

    Oh no I don't think it had anything to do with the game. I'm sure it's fine. I just... hated it for some reason? Glad it won those awards though... The PSP needs some light shined on it. (And one more price drop so I can finally afford one!)

    Yeah, this year's enough to make me want a PSP. Frankly, if portable Disgaea and Symphony of the Night/Rondo of Blood were all the PSP would ever offer, I think I'd still find it a worthy purchase.

    I hated (with a passion mind you) the lameass syphon filter games on PS1. I always wanted to try the psp one, but I had envisioned it was just like the old ones with a really generic story nd some kinda bland gameplay, but it was on a portable so it seemed better. I'm probably wrong and it most likely is actually incredible, but man I got burned bad on buying the first one on PS1.

    Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror is pretty dang awesome in my estimation. On of my favorite titles on the PSP, and I generally hate shooters on any non-computer platform. The controls in it are tight* I highly recommend the game to anyone with a PSP.

    * Using the world 'tight' these days is not recommended though. I am dating myself.

    You don't want FFII. It is truly awful. It tried to be "innovative", and it ended up being terrible.

    I wouldn't worry then, Dark Mirror's gameplay is really different than the originals. The only downpoint IMO is the story, which is the same lame stuff the Splinter Cell series puts out as well. Luckily, Logan's Shadow will fix this aspect, since Greg fuckin' Rucka wrote the story for it.

    As for FFII, from the impressions I've read it sounds like they've improved it a bit, but it's still not very good.

    Yeah, the story really wasn't very good. The voice acting was...serviceable. The production values on the FMVs were really pretty impressive to me, though. Gameplay is solid, too. The last ability I unlocked was the dual-wielding. Nothing like playing a stealth-action game armed with a pair of sawn-off shotguns.

    The demo is still scheduled to be released this month. Also, the magazine that reported the "delay" also mentioned that Sony would release a downloadable demo this month too.

    Btw, to add more to my Dark Mirror love, it was probably my game of 2006.

    And Syphon Filter was one of the best games for the PS1. Oh my god, I spent so much time playing that game.
    I skipped school several days in a row to play that game, over and over again.
