LocoRoco
Publisher: SCEA
Developer: Sony Computer Entertainment Japan
Release Date: 09/05/2006
LocoRoco was one of the best things we'd ever seen before E3, and that opinion hasn't changed since the show. Deceptively simple, stunningly creative and impossibly happy, this cute little action-puzzler lets you guide an ever-growing herd of singing blobs around a 2D world, hunting for secrets and bopping shadowy enemies. A few other games came close, but this is the one that PSP owners won't want to be without when fall rolls around.
