Stevo: That's kind of funny seeing as it's been reviewed as one of the worst launch games for the PSP... just goes to show how uninformed the GP is.

Passivex: I absolutely love this game but having to use the thumbpad/thumbstick thing on the PSP for prolonged period of time is a pain. I think I nearly got carpal tunnel a couple of times. I had to stop and restart playing after 1/2 an hour or so because I couldn't bear the pain. If only there's a patch to allow you to remap the controls (or maybe swap the analog control for the digital control. I don't rarely switch special functions). In fact, even typing about this issue brings back memories of the pain. My left hand feels like the pain is coming back. Scary...

Tim: Gamespot didn't rate this game very well but the Gamespot player community have boosted it's rating to well above 8 - which is "great". Personally, I really enjoy this game - it reminds me of Diablo. And I consider this to be a really good PSP launch game (I also have Lumines, Ridge Racer, and Twisted Metal), not one of the worst. Stevo commented that the GP was uninformed, but perhaps the GP are informed, considering the gamespot player rating. Untold Legends, IMHO, is far better than the slew of sports games which are receiving some very poor ratings.
