Flood of new PSP games arrive

They may try to dazzle us with a ridiculous number of PSP releases over the next week, but we're not easily distracted – our Jedi-like minds mean we've noticed Lego Star Wars II has yet to appear on Sony's handheld.

Alas, not even Yoda can tell you why this is happening. But don't let the frustration lead you to the dark side of the Force. Instead, focus the wealth of PSP titles due for release over the next eight days to guide you back onto the path of goodness. B-Boy, Gitaroo Man Lives! and Mercury Meltdown particularly pique our interest.

It's worth mentioning too that should you get lost, Sony's Passport city guides – initially featuring Amsterdam, Barcelona, London, Paris, Prague and Rome – are also out tomorrow.

Finally, reminding everyone that the UK handheld market isn't solely Sony's playground there are some DS releases planned for next Friday, not least EA's heavyweight FIFA 07.

FIFA 07 is also out on PSP, of course. Unless it too decides to take the wrong path on its way to the shops.

Have you read our controversial opinion as to why games so often miss their release dates?
