PSP has such a great games library and emulates so well on phones. I owned a PSP back in the day and played it constantly, but still I feel like I’m getting so much out of the games I didn’t play back then.
Try China Town Wars. It’s disappointing that top down games like that don’t get made more often.

I had a psp I bought at launch with my first job. I had it two weeks before my little brother dumped a mystery liquid down on it. $300 of early 00s first job money down the drain 😭. But I really liked this game and gauntlet legends on it a lot in the time I had it.
Ok…PLEASE tell me you punched your little brother!!! How old was he?
Or! Or! Hear me out…wait until he gets married, and then at the wedding tell a funny story about how when he met his wife, he was also dating a prostitute with HIV, and kept it up for 4 years behind his wifes back. Play it off like a funny story, how he used to bareback the prostitute for free at noon, and then go on a date that night with his future wife. And by now, the whole room should be pindrop akwardly silent. Then you say “Yeah, Kenny! That’s for my PSP back in 2004, bitch!”
…doesn’t even matter if his name is Kenny. By this point you should be HAMMERED.
I mean…that’s kind of harsh! I was just suggesting planting the seed of distrust in his marriage from day one, ultimately leading to him becoming another statistic of failed marriages under 5 years. All over a broken electronic video game from 20 years ago.
But prison? Dude. You took it too far! Too far dude! That was too far! Dude.

There are Retro City Rampage and Shakedown Hawaii on the indie side. They rely on 80s and 90s nostalgia quite heavily but at least RCR was really fun to play, I didn’t play the other one yet.

Shakedown Hawaii is stellar. Don’t know if you played The Godfather II game but it has a similar property acquiring mechanic.

I’ll check out Chinatown wars
Have a look through this list. There are so many great games that hold up really well today.

Patapon and lumines were a couple of the early psp games I was addicted to
