4 of 5: Niche

The best part of Darkstalkers Chronicle, perhaps, is how well it transferred from the console to the PSP. It was an excellent fighter on the Dreamcast, and it's a worthy addition to the PSP lineup. With a ton of extras, a full cast of Darkstalkers characters, and an excellent multiplayer network mode, Capcom really pulled out all the stops for this game. Minor complaints could be made—such as the PSP's stiff directional pad and some noticeable load times—but fighting fans on the go will be more than pleased with this product. It's easy to switch on the PSP, play a few rounds, put it into sleep mode, and then pull it back out again a few minutes later. Darkstalkers Chronicle looks great, plays great, and is a welcome addition to the PSP library.
