I bought a PSP a year ago and I have so many titles to play.
Especially good on PSP are Strategy RPGs and other RPGs.
Here is a list of must-haves by genre (I played):
Strategy (including Strategy RPGs):
- Disgaea series (first 2 are remade for PSP, excellent games, I'm still on the first one and I'm not even close to finishing it although I have over 40hours gameplay)
- Final Fantasy Tactics (excellent title remade for PSP with awesome hand-drawn cutscenes although Disgaea is more fun to play this is still recommended)
- Valkyria Chronicles II (one of the best strategy games I've ever played)
- Worms: Battle Islands (hey it's latest portable worms, need I say more)
- Jeanne d'Arc (although I haven't played it I hear it's an awesome game in vein of FF:Tactics and Disgaea)
RPGs:
- Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
- Half Minute Hero (excellent parody of grinding JRPGs)
- Final Fantasy 1 & 2 remakes
- Crimson Gem Saga (korean RPG with an excellent turn-based combat system, I'd go as far and say that is the best classicaly made Asian RPG on PSP)
Action titles:
- Syphon Filter series (excellent mix of action and stealth)
- Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (there's Portable Ops but you can skip it, I'd go as far and say this is the best MGS after the first title in the series)
- GTA Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories and Chinatown Wars (GTA Stories is more like GTA 3 but Chinatown Wars returns to overhead camera roots packed with arcade fun)
Platforming, Sidescrollers:
- Mega Man Maverick Hunter X (excellent remake)
- Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins (an old ninteno hard classic)
- N+ (although I haven't tried it yet it was nominated for the best PSP game one year)
- Echocrome and its sequel Echoshift (excellent puzzle platformers)
- Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (with hidden secret a full sequel - Rondo of Blood)
- Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles (it's old skool Castlevania, need I say more)
Upcoming games:
- Valkyria Chronicles III
- Tactics Ogre
- Final Fantasy 4 remake
These are my personal recommendations, you should check out reviews and videos and see if you like them. If you need more recommendations ask away
