Many of those games are brand new releases:

Thexder Neo
Beaterator
Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days
Soul Caliber: Broken Destiny
Warriors Orochi 2
Madden 10
NFS Shift
Dirt 2
SMT: Persona
Motorstorm Arctic Edge
Gran Tourismo
NBA 2010

Overall a great list of games.
Nice that the greatest hits titles are $5 cheaper than their UMD counterparts.
Couple of titles are a HUGE price drop.. specifically the NISA titles. Prinny dropped $40. Their older titles are 50% cheaper than UMD.

Guilty Gear XX Accent Core+ is by far the best figher on the PSP and a steal for $25.

I'm pondering what to do with my PSP situation.

I feel that the Go is too expensive but I love the portability aspect of it. I would actually bring the go with me everywhere. The old PSP is just too big to make that possible.

I currently have a 4GB Pro Duo in my 3000 and with the addition of Disgea 1 and Prinny, that card is full. I hate the idea of having to pick and choose which games are going to be on my portable.

Trading in my PSP and shelling out for a GO will probably end up being the same amount as buying a 16GB Pro Duo (without factoring in the loss I'm eating on the trade-in (my PSP is only 3-4 months old).

I'm thinking of just waiting for a price drop on the Go. I can't imagine the thing will move many units at the 250$ price point. Once that happens, the value proposition should be enough for me to pull the trigger.

I played around with a Go. To me it feels like it has a very cheap and fragile construction. I didn't do a side by side comparison but the screen seems significantly smaller as well as being kind of fuzzy. Wasn't nearly as sharp as a 3000 psp I've played on. I am not a fan of electrionics getting so tiny, it makes it more portable yes, but i had to adjust my hands awkwardly in order to push the buttons, and I have pretty small hands for a guy. Very disappointed.

On the plus side, it loaded up a game from the memory much quicker then a UMD. On the other hand, loading from UMD is so slow it had to be an improvment. While the new thumbstick was very tight and felt good, it was just so small it was hard to move it comfortably.

I'll be honest, I am biased against the psp for a few reasons but was considering getting a go but it seems to be a downgrade to me.

Few good PSP games in the last little while to hit the PSN store.

Most notable in my book are:
GTA: Chinatown Wars
Armored Core 3 Portable
Dissidia: Final Fantasy.

I picked up Dissidia today (39$ cdn. Cheapest I could find outside the used market up here. Everyone has it for 45 or 50). The game is awesome and the fact that I don't have to mess with a UMD is even better.

But you can't sell it when you've finished it or lend it to a friend :(

For console systems, I have no problems with physical disks. I love them. For devices on the go, I don't want to start lugging disks and carrying cases of disks around with me. (frankly the PSP3000 stretches the limit of what I consider portable but that's another story). I also don't have many gamer-friends in my RL circles where I live so I don't end up lending or borrowing media to begin with.

It's been on PSN for a while now but I picked up Brave Story a few weeks ago and am really enjoying it.
It's a by-the-numbers JRPG that just does everything right.
