If you haven’t tried the Arkanoid homebrew game on your PSP yet, its well worth downloading.

For those of you who don’t know, arknoid is a classic bat and ball style game where you have to bounce the ball into blocks to get them to disappear.

One of the most original features of this port of a classic game to the PSP is that fact that you rotate your PSP 90 degrees to play it. Its the first game I’ve come across that plays this way, and its quite a good use of the PSP’s screen layout.

Arkanoid has been ported to many games machines over the years, and has been known as breakout on some systems. This PSP port is a very polished piece of software and runs extremely smoothly.
