PSP, or PlayStation Portable, is the first handheld video game console developed by Sony. It was released in 2004 after its main competitor in the field — Nintendo DS.
The console was positioned as an ultimate media player as it could play music, videos, pictures, and other multimedia as well as exhibit games. Such positioning and the absence of decent competition has made PSP fame of the best handheld in its time. The games circulate on UMD discs. The idea was developed out of fear of CDs piracy. The mobile gaming was not so widely popular then, and NDS was strictly Asia-oriented let alone the technical progress PSP has made after its launch. There were five primary hardware revisions of the handheld: original (“fat”), 2000 (“slim” — due to form factor), 3000 (“bright” — due to improved screen), Go (a slider with no UMD-drive) and Street (the cheapest one due to the absence of Wi-Fi module).
RAWG publishes an average score only once a game has collected
6 or more user votes. Below that it
returns 0.0 — while still returning the full vote
breakdown. So a game nobody has ever rated and a game with five
“exceptional” votes arrive looking identical.
Those suppressed scores are recomputed from the breakdown, which recovers 0 of the 1 games here that would otherwise read as unrated. The rest have no votes at all — mostly obscure, regional or unported titles. That is a real absence, not a gap in the fetch: there is nothing to retrieve.
Everything with a vote ranks in one table, because the order is weighted rather than a raw mean: a score is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 (too few ranked games here to take a local one) in proportion to how thin its evidence is, so a two-vote 5.0 settles near the middle instead of on top. Metacritic joins at half that weight where it exists — 1 of these games have one.
Ordered by a weighted score, not the raw mean: each game's own average is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 in proportion to how few votes it rests on, and Metacritic is folded in at half that weight where it exists. A 6-vote 4.67 therefore ranks below a 2,100-vote 4.45 — the raw figure is shown under each score, and sorting by raw score ignores the weighting entirely.
Bars show how the votes split —
Exceptional, Recommended, Meh, Skip.
A ~ on the raw figure marks a score recomputed from a
breakdown RAWG suppresses.
