A suprisingly amazing port of one of my favourite games.
Gitaroo Man is my favourite rhythm game and I can happily play it all the way through any time (which is also why I beat it the week before playing this, I only beat this because I was testing my psp after getting one). I hadn't played the PSP port and I can happily say that it's a great way to play, I prefer the PS2 version but theres very few differences, mostly that the og 4:3 fmvs are now cut off to fit the psp screen, and just a lower texture quality, but also it's not much of a issue and I was fine with it. I do think the control nub is actually a better way to play so if you find the ps2 version too hard maybe the PSP version would be easier. I will say that I actually died to the final level a few times, which I've never actually done before on any time I've played the ps2 version, which I'm not sure if it was just because my hand wasn't used to playing on a psp or if they made it harder but it's more than likely my fault more than anything.
The 2 new songs are pretty good also, but playing this also me kinda sad realising that there isn't a offical release of the cutscene music which sucks because it has different variations of the Legendary theme. Also just as always have to say that the OST is amazing, not a bad song in the game.
