Pac-Man World Rally

Aug 22, 2006

It recycles a few old ideas well, and sports uncharacteristically classy art direction and music, but its strictly by-the-numbers gameplay is plainly disposable.

PaRappa the Rapper PSP

Jul 17, 2007

This tough-as-nails rhythm-action game features you rapping with a moose as well as a man with an onion for a head. Still fun, but this would have worked better as a compilation including its sequel.

Instant fun, but leaves us wanting more with little in the way of new features.

Patapon

Feb 26, 2008

Part rhythm game, part real time strategy. Once you start playing, you just can't stop - once you start singing in public, it's all over.

Patapon 2

PDC World Championship Darts 2008

16 licensed players, all the modes you'd expect and commentary from Sid Waddell. Everything a darts fan could need, except worthwhile controls and arrow physics that don't suck.

Phantasy Star Portable

A stripped-down port of the 360 and PS2 versions. Don't expect the same online awesomeness with this one... but maybe pared-down 4-player won't suck.

Pilot Academy

This comprehensive flight sim covers everything from military fighters to heavily-laden jumbo jets.

Pimp My Ride

Apr 3, 2007

Repetitive modding, banal minigames and little else - this is one ugly ride not worth taking.

Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection

Nov 20, 2005

This is a better portable game than it is a full-sized offering, and the movement of the ball itself feels wonderful.

Pinball Hall of Fame - The Williams Collection

Feb 26, 2008

If you've played every pinball game from Soho down to Brighton, here's yet another for you to try.

Pipe Mania

Sep 30, 2008

Prepare to watch hours go down the drain with the return of this super addictive puzzle game. It has surprisingly good graphics and is accessible for everyone.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

Jun 27, 2006

Dead Man's Chest doesn't deserve a purchase so much as a massive black spot. Send this uninspired action game back to the depths.

Platypus

Nov 22, 2006

A not-quite-classic side-scrolling shooter whose interesting claymation graphics can't overcome drearily typical gameplay.

Pocket Pool

Apr 18, 2007

Pocket Pool bills itself as the sexiest pool game ever created - which it is. The trouble is, it's just not very good otherwise.

Pocket Racers

Nov 14, 2006

An evil nemesis crashes a party and turns all the guests into miniature cars. Navigate haunted halls as you race for your soul in this bite-sized title

PoPoLoCrois

Power Stone Collection

Oct 31, 2006

Despite remaining relatively faithful to the Dreamcast originals, the limitations of the PSP take a heavy toll on this port.

PQ: Practical Intelligence Quotient

Jan 10, 2006

In spite of its flaws, PQ is an extremely addictive, innovative title that gives PSP-owning puzzle fans a welcome break from falling-block games.

PQ2: Practical Intelligence Quotient

Jun 12, 2007

Its clean graphics, satisfying puzzles, and overall great design improve upon the original PQ and make PQ2 one of the best 3D puzzle options on the PSP.
