For this week, we're taking a step back from the actual PSP hardware and focusing instead on its lifeblood: the games. Speaking of games, anybody tried out the Dissidia: Final Fantasy demo yet? I was feeling pretty confident in challenging the other QJ bloggers to try and face my blank-faced Onion Knight (seriously, his face is a mask of emotionlessness that can't be penetrated by mortal eyes) but then I found out that the demo didn't have multiplayer. Bummer, that.

Anyway, on to the recap!
