Dissidia: Final Fantasy (No. 5 PSP Best Game)

Developer: Square Enix
Publisher: Square Enix Year
Released: 2009



It's not exactly the first thing one thinks of when confronted with the name Final Fantasy, but Square Enix reached back into the Ehrgeiz back o' tricks and produced this, easily the company's most accomplished fighter to date. Merging cast members from every Final Fantasy game from the original all the way up to FFXII and pitting them against each other in arenas rife with interactive, gravity-defying segments, Dissidia plays at once like an arena-based fighter and... well, yes, a Final Fantasy game, complete with HP bars, special attacks, items and summons. The RPG influence isn't just window dressing, though, it's a core part of the entire experience, and there's so much content packed onto one UMD that it's hard to see this as anything but a huge thank-you from Square Enix to Final Fantasy fans.
