I am really enjoying playing this title. The little movies you can watch about the characters, the Illustrations you unlock as you fight your way up the tower, the werewolf that latches on to you and starts spilling blood like it was cheap beer.

If developers were able to port some of the console features to PSP, they should have taken the time to make sure that the controls translated as well.
