Top Five PSP Games of Autumn 2009

The PSP is having a slow year so far in 2009 due to the lack of big games and the slumping economy. Sony plans to revive the struggling system this autumn with the launch of a new model called the PSP Go on October 1. Of course, the PSP can't sell hardware without any killer games to play. Here are the top five video games coming to the PSP this autumn.

5. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona
^{Publisher: Atlus, Developer: Atlus, Release Date: September 22}
The Shin Megami Tensei: Persona became really popular with the third and fourth games on the Playstation 2. Atlus decided to remake the original game in the series for the PSP for this autumn. In addition to enhance visual and audio capabilities, Shin Megami Tensei: Persona also has new content as well as streamlined gameplay. Without a doubt, the PSP version will be the ultimate one when it comes out this autumn.

4. Gran Turismo
^{Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment, Developer: Polyphony Digital, Release Date: October 1}
Gran Turismo was announced for the PSP years ago. Once thought to be cancelled, the racing simulator is now suddenly slated for an autumn release. New players to the popular racing series can expect incredible graphics, dozens of racing tracks and over 800 cars. Gran Turismo will easily end up being the best-selling PSP game this autumn. After all, Sony is choosing to launch the game alongside the PSP Go.

3. Lunar: Silver Star Harmony
^{Publisher: Xseed Games, Developer: Game Arts, Release Date: December 8}
Another classic role-playing game getting a remake this autumn on the PSP is Lunar: The Silver Star. In addition to new graphics and music to take advantage of the PSP strengths, the engrossing story (which will be true to the original Sega CD version) is also being expanded. If you haven't experience this classic game yet than make sure you play Lunar: Silver Star Harmony this autumn on the PSP.

2. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
^{Publisher: Rockstar Games, Developer: Rockstar Leeds and Rockstar North, Release Date: October 20}
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars was once thought to be an exclusive game for the Nintendo DS. Fortunately, Rockstar Games decided to port the incredible game to the PSP this autumn. What makes this version so good is that it was built specifically for the handheld experience. PSP players will certainly be in for a treat this autumn with Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

1. LittleBigPlanet
^{Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment, Developer: Sony Computer Entertainment Studio Cambridge, Release Date: November 17}
Last autumn, LittleBigPlanet was released on the Playstation 3. The platforming title won many awards thanks to its innovative level creation and sharing system. Sony decided to bring the LittleBigPlanet experience to the PSP this autumn. Many of the features like the cutesy graphics, easy-to-learn level creation and robust sharing features are packed into the handheld version. Thus, LittleBigPlanet is the best game coming out this autumn on the PSP.
