Lunar: Silver Star Harmony

If you're looking to buy some PSP games for a loved one this holiday season, then BrightHub has you covered with a comprehensive list of some of the best PSP titles to launch this year. Stay tuned for more!

"It may have taken away some of the classic RPG feel of the original, but it would have been nice if the load times and strict game play restrictions could have been updated as well as the graphics. The game play still feels a bit dated and many gamers might be turned off by the turn based combat system that remains strictly in place.

"Joseph DeLia of GameZone writes "The Lunar games have always stood out to me in that regard, as its one of the rare series that doesn't made me groan at every failed attempt of humor. With Lunar: Silver Star Harmony hitting PSPs on February 23rd, I thought that a look back at the series' light side would be fitting.""
