The experience playing stardust is more like you are circling all the way around five planets that you have to work through. This idea also helps to give this game a great flow, spectacle and rhythm. With eye catching amount of objects and gorgeous explosions on-screen it deserves to be on my10 list. Play it and see outer-space battle for yourself.

Top 6: Ninja Gaiden Sigma

This is actually the best and improved Ninja Gaiden. This Ninja Gaiden Sigma is still just a port of the Xbox games, but its ok, because the developers followed the "if it ain't broke" school of thought.

Considered as the least-known game and yet one of the best PS3 games released. This game is plays similarly to other popular retro-styled shooters like Geometry Wars as well as the Super Stardust where the player controls a ship shooting enemies.

Top 3: GripShift

This is one game with brilliance of series’ like TrackMania where some players are unaccustomed with and what makes this game underrated PSP titles. GripShift’s odd take on the puzzle genre and fusing it with a racing game and this will sweep you in instantly.
