If you love strategy games, you should really enjoy this one. Some elements are very reminiscent of Civilization as well. This game has actually been around for a while in Japan though just now debuting in the U.S.

Well-worth the buy!

Generation of Chaos takes place in Lost Grounds, which is basically a large battle field where ten different kingdoms are locked in a violent power struggle. When you begin the game you can choose between only 2 different campaign modes. You can unlock other campaign modes through out the game by playing through both. When you first start either campaign you will be locked into a game that has a confusing menu interface and a steep learning curve of over 2 hours. The manual that comes with the game doesn't give much of any help in learning to play the game.
Aside from the confusing interface you are faced with a weak battle system that doesn't allow you much control over the commander and the units. You will often find your commander stuck behind a unit and unable to attack until that unit is killed or in front of the unit and unable to run or move back.
The loading times are the worst I have seen so far out of any PSP game. This leads to slow battle scenes and frequent load times which make is stutter and lag constantly. The frequent noise that will come from your PSP while it is loading will be enough to turn you away.
The only thing that was probably good but not great in this game would have to be the voice acting. Other than that it will take a person with a lot of patience to actually enjoy this game.

This game is A great addition to anyone's PSP game list. The graphics and game story line are great. Great RPG's are hard to find but this is one that every die hard Gamer should have.

This is a perfect strategy game. You need money to customize your city. You have many different story, one for each caracter. That's my favorite game with PSP. You have anything inside, strategy, role playing, action, decision. I really don't understand person who doesn't love this game.

Worked well enough for a fantasy turn-based strategy. It has some flaws, but I'm sure they're fixed up in the next game in the series. For what it's worth, it's fairly challenging, so you'll be gritting your teeth screaming, "I will not be defeated by this!"
