Dude, I am *so* due for a spin of Record of Lodoss Wars.  Especially
since Alien Syndrome PSP is boring me stiff.

Aside from that and Jet Set/Grind Radio, I'm struggling to think of
any DC games that I can't replace on one of my newer systems (Power
Stone, Street Fighter 3, etc.)

Terrence Briggs, PSP-only gamer, for now
Peace to you...

Well, I still haven't been able to get myself to play games portably.  I 
was perfectly happy with my DS but never played it.  I don't have to 
think about how much my hands move while I play console games.  Aside 
from that, I would take any DC original over a port.  There is simply no 
replacing DC games in 1080i on my 40" RPTV, and there is absolutely no 
gaming controller out there today as precise as the DC gamepad.

I find Powerstone on PSP to be a poor replacement for the DC version.

Other great DC only games (barring arcade releases): Seaman in English, 
Ooga Booga, Demolition Racer No Exit, Sega Bass Fishing, Sega Marine 
Fishing (the newer SBFs are not replacements, tho I h/n tried th Wii 
version), Tech Romancer, Toy Commander...
