Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days (PlayStation Portable)

Demons Are So Damn Fun

by Coop



When a copy of Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days landed on my desk, I was excited to dive into the world that I spent so many hours with a few years earlier. The previous title was one of my first experiences with a tactical RPG, and had to be one of the most charming games on the PlayStation 2. For whatever reason, I skipped out on the sequel, so a chance to go back and right that wrong was one I couldn't ignore. That said, I'll admit that I was a bit worried about the port. The last game Nippon Ichi Software brought from the PS2 to the PSP was Mana Khemia: Student Alliance, which came complete with awful load times and a slew of framerate issues.

Thankfully, Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days plays as well if not better on the handheld as it did on consoles, without any noticeable problems or changes. Visuals and audio may have taken a slight hit, but when they're all pixels to begin with it doesn't really matter. It honestly feels as though nothing was cut back at all, meaning that the PSP has found itself with an amazing tactical RPG just in time for the PSPgo's release.
