PS Fanboy Best of 2007: Best Story
Stay tuned all this week as we reveal the our nominees for the very best games of 2007. Winners will be declared on December 27th.
This year was filled with a number of fantastic stories on PSP from all kinds of genres. Whether you liked fantasy, comedy, or good ol' beat-em-ups, there were tons of stories that had you playing all through the night.
And the nominees for PSP Fanboy - Best Story of 2007 are:
Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness
Nippon Ichi Software | NIS America
Disgaea tells the story of a long-slumbering demon, Laharl, and his attempt to reclaim the throne of the demon kingdom. Along the way, he'll meet a truly wacky cast of allies and minions. Sharp writing that parodies every aspect of the genre keeps things fresh. A unique universe filled with talking, suicidal penguins makes Disgaea not only one of this year's funniest games, but one of its most original.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions
Square Enix | Square Enix
The War of the Lions is a complex tale, filled with power struggles and political intrigue. The tale of the young knight Ramza is not easily forgotten, and the new localization for PSP adds tons of Shakespearean flair. The new animated cutscenes do a fantastic job of progressing the story -- one riddled with pain, betrayal, and the yearning to conquer it all.

The Warriors
Rockstar Leeds | Rockstar
Rockstar's interpretation of the 70s film classic is a winner. The tale of rival gangs trying to take over New York City is told through the eyes of characters you can't help but fall in love with. The cinematic flair that permeates the game is apparent from the very moment you pop in the disc, and continues throughout with fantastic writing, incredible presentation, and great dialogue that immerses you in a foregone era.
