Upcoming PSP games for March 2008

With all of the megaton games arriving for the PSP in March, we just couldn’t wait to get this list of upcoming titles on the front page. During the coming weeks some major hitters are coming out for the PSP, as well as some not-so-major hitters. Anyone with a PSP will already know about Crisis Core and God of War, but all of the titles coming out next month hold some promise. Kris is particularly excited to try out N+, the quirky ninja simulator from Atari, while I have dibs on the review of Crisis Core, which you can expect immediately upon release of the game. Continue below to get the skinny on these titles and make note of their release dates. We generally aren’t the type to recommend pre-ordering games, but true PSP fanatics might want to consider it next month.

World Championship Cards — February 26th: This game is going to feature 30 different card games. If you are one of those that has to stay away from those addicting poker handhelds you might want to shy away from this one for your own health.

God of War: Chains of Olympus — March 4th: We did a review of the demo for this game last month and needless to say, the brand is in very capable hands with Ready At Dawn studios. This is looking like a must have for any PSP owner.

FlatOut: Head On — March 11th: A racing game that promises real world physics and the “most destructive” racing game on the PSP. Not a whole lot of gamer buzz on this one but hey, this could be the racing simulator you’ve been looking for with wi-fi racing action and three different gameplay modes.

Wild Arms: XF — March 11th: The sixth entry into the Wild Arms franchise, this RPG is going to take place on the same planet as all the others. My guess is that this will contain many of the same plot developments and recycled RPG drama from the other 5, but if you are a Wild Arms fan it’d probably be a crime to disregard this one.

Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core — March 25th: The prequel to the if you haven’t heard of it you’re not of this world game Final Fantasy VII. This game has gotten amazing reviews already in Japan and promises the best graphics on PSP to date, in other crisis core news, make sure to check out the new American website to make your mouth water that much more.

N+ — March 25th A simple puzzle game that sets you as a Ninja who really has a thing for gold, this 2D puzzler has you avoiding crazy robots and playing through 50 levels designed by gamers who loved the original. If you like Ninjas (and who doesn’t) you might want to take this one for a spin!
