Top 5 on PSP: Sports
Filed under: Hot Shots Golf, Virtua Tennis, MLB, Metareview, Fan Stuff
The PSP has been near the top of the sales charts recently and I figured some new PSP owners may not be up to know what great games the system has to offer. With that in mind, every day this week we’ll feature a new genre and list the top 5 games (according to metareviews), so no matter what you’re into, you’ll have some idea of what games you should own. Today the focus is on Sports games and there were so many games tied in this genre that I’d end up with a list of 16 games if I listed all the tied games as equals in rank. With that in mind, I made an executive decision and today going forward with this feature I’ll list the top 5 based on Metareview and I’ll use reader reviews to sort through ties.
Top 5 Sports games on PSP
- Virtua Tennis World Tour
- Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 Remix
- MLB 06: The Show
- Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2007
- Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee
I don’t play sports games, so I’m not sure if this list is accurate to the average sports fan. What do you think about these 5 games? What sports games aren’t on this list that you think every PSP owner should have?
