For the most part, I’ve never been a big fan of most games on handheld devices. If I’m going to play a sports game, it’ll most likely be on a console not a handheld. I can live with RPG games on a handheld, but most of the time I’ll prefer those on a PC.
Puzzle games? Well, now that is a completely different story.
I think puzzle games are the best thing you could have on a handheld, especially a Sony PSP. Thursday, I decided I’d pick up Lumines. This game has been hyped a lot, so I thought I’d give it a try. While it is fun to play, I really don’t think this game lives up to all the hype that it has had.
Sunday, I picked up Mercury. Again, another puzzle game. This one, I had seen around, but not heard much hype about it. I’d have to say, IMO, this game blows Lumines away. It is extremely challenging and complex. A perfect way to waste hours upon hours of your life away. :p
Both games are good, but for anyone trying to decide which one to get, I’d go with Mercury.
