All kinds of video game systems, like the Sony Playstation Portable and the Microsoft Xbox 360, have released some excellent video games. From great sporting titles to whimsical fantasy games to rough & tumble army games, there have been some great video games released over the years. As well as the games, some of the music of today's video games are so well done, they belong on an iPod Nano, rather than in a video game.

A video game that I enjoy playing over and over again is one for the Playstation and the Sony Playstation Portable called Medievil.

This is one of those video games that is both addictive and challenging at the same time. As Sir Daniel Fortesque, you are the main character and hero of the game. And, by the way, you're also dead. Yet, on the Sony PSP, you come back to life to once again vanquish the forces of evil. It's a simple premise that has been seen and played on many video game platforms, from Nintendo to the Microsoft Xbox 360. For some reason, though, Medievil is a great game to play for the Sony Playstation Portable and for the original Sony Playstation.

This game is loaded with everything. The music, which is definitely iPod Nano worthy, is never boring, repetitive or dull. Each part of the soundtrack corresponds beautifully with each unique level and area of the game, so that rather than playing a video game, you feel like your actually watching a spooky, scary and gothic movie - with you as the star! The graphics are incredible, and the voiceover work is some of the best and funniest that's ever been developed for the Sony Playstation Portable.

There are many big time and big name video games that get all of the hype and the press. And, for the most part, the attention is well deserved, as the more popular games are often some of the best and most innovative titles ever created. Sometimes, a smaller game gets released that becomes a total and must-have game. For me, Sony really hit a home run by releasing Medievil, and now that's it's available on the Sony PSP, it's even better than ever!
