Project Diva 2 (PSP). Wow. Who would have thought that Sega would make such a solid and one of the better rhythm games (imo) this generation? The music is either up your alley or not, but I'll say there is enough variation here if you know a bit about Japanese music (and not just the teen aidoru pop music).
If you have a Japanese PSN account I highly recommend trying out the demo for your music fiends out there! I bought the full game and I'm lovin' it! It's not revolutionary or anything like that, it's just a very well made rhythm game. Might even make a few new Miku/Vocaloid fans in the process.
Another PSP rhythm game that I bought recently (and cost me at least
one hundred bones) is
DJ Max Portable 3. Haven't tried it, yet, but if turns out it sucks it won't be at a loss - for me, anyway :mrgreen:
As Halloween is approaching I've gotten into a Castlevania kick lately. The thing is, I never played a Castlevania game before till The Dracula X Chronicles just a couple months ago. What a perfect way to get into the series; you get 3 games for the price of one (at a discount) and they're all good! I also got the Rebirth game and plan on starting the series from Castlevania 3 (I've watched playthroughs of the first two...3 is a good place to start, I think).
