It's unusual to find Nintendo being more tolerant of such things, but you'll be very lucky if you can find anywhere but eBay that's willing to help you import anything published by Sony — even if it's available in the US.
But overcome such obstacles and there's still a host of great games out there that are unlikely ever to see a UK shop shelf even more if you can read Japanese — but we've left out all the exclusive role-players with the assumption that most people probably can't. This isn't Japanese in origin, though, but Korean starting life as web game but finding its true home on Sony's handheld. The basics are the same as Beatmania and its ilk as you tap along to a tune using anything from four to eight buttons at a time.
The accompanying animations are superb and there's a generous 61 different tunes in this sequel. More importantly the entry-level difficulty is a lot lower than before, plus there's plenty of online and multiplayer options and it's all in English. This is an entirely different beast to Professor Layton though, being a strategy role-playing game featuring no less than Joan of Arc. In typical Japanese style it mixes genuine historical figures with magical powers and creatures, but thankfully all is done in the service of some of the deepest strategy roleplaying gameplay yet — and on a console that's already blessed with a number of similar titles.
What makes this stand out though is the fast pace and impressive graphics, which should be enough to attract even strategy haters. South Korea has its own very unique ideas about video games, with professional PC gamers being treated like sports stars and a new Tolkien-esque massively multiplayer online game coming out seemingly every week. Apparently they also like their music games on the PSP, because this is the second one in our line-up.

This game looks superb on the PSP, giving us yet another example of how incredible and ahead of its time this device truly is. There are eight teams in Wipeout Pulse, and each ship has an energy field that protects the ship from bashes and crashes. If your energy runs out, then your ship explodes! The game only features twelve tracks, but players can race these both forwards and backwards, essentially providing a mirror mode and taking the number to Up to 8 people could battle it out online using some of the best weapons known to gaming-kind, stealthily moving through trenches and battling it out on dark and shady-looking maps.
The multiplayer servers are now sadly offline, but players can still enjoy the epic story mode in this game. With Resistance 2 in the disc tray, gamers could fire up Retribution and play it using the PS3 controller. The DualShock rumble worked perfectly too! This is a game where you have to be present and alert at all times, a title where you WILL die a lot and have to come back to the same point and repeat the process all over again. It requires more patience than a Christmas shopper in a Best Buy queue and the planning that you need to put into taking out some of the bigger foes is tantamount to military strategy.
That being said, the feeling that you get when you finally bring down the big monsters and stand victorious is probably up there with winning an Olympic medal.

You must unlock the mysteries of the Dark Hour, a period between the end of one day and the beginning of the next where one can reach a world filled with evil monsters. This game is an absolute belter from beginning to end and is and one of my favourite RPG titles for the console.
The PSP also lets you fight as a male or female protagonist which is a nice touch. This game starts where the last title left off, giving you a chance to cross the Rainbow Bridge and discover the secrets and hidden perils of a brand new land. Can you remember Donkey Konga for the GameCube? Patapon 3 is a little like that, with the gameplay of Lemmings and the graphics of Viewtiful Joe. The Patapons march in time to the drum beats that you play out by pressing the PSP face buttons, all the while moving towards battles with the seven evil arch-fiends in a 2D world filled with exciting obstacles and rich scenery that you might not expect from a side-scrolling game.
This Patapon title is definitely less confusing compared to some of its predecessors and mega fun once you get into the swing of things. This time Daxter is going solo and working his way through the game as a bug exterminator while searching for his buddy, Jak.

All five classes and the original BLiTZ combat system feature from the original game, as well as new never-before-seen classes and abilities that you can discover as you progress through the game. If you like the sound of a turn-based shoot-em-up that requires teamwork and a mind for strategy, then give Valkyria Chronicles II a bash!
Crisis Core married role-playing features that we know and love from previous FF titles with real-time combat in open-world areas, usually kicking monster butt and generally being a boss with big weapons and magical abilities. This game is set seven years before FF7 and ends just before the start of said game. It sold well over 3 million copies and has secured itself as one of the best PSP games of all time.
What is better than stealing cars, shooting bad guys, and generally being a bad-ass gangster while sitting on your sofa at home? Vice City Stories is the tenth game in the GTA series and one of the last to use famous voices for its main characters. Vice City Stories really shows what the PSP is capable of and is a feat of games engineering for this tiny portable console. This is the last title in the Syphon Filter series, and it both plays and looks like a home console title.
Sony has brought a lot of stealth-shooters to its various consoles over the years, and Syphon Filter was always one of my favourites. Enemies react realistically to gunfire too, providing users with a much more immersive adventure.
