I swore that the first Puzzle Quest was best on the PSP but no one believed me. I don't think anyone tried it. But it had really nice graphics and a good layout, and it didn't leave my PSP UMD slot for a very long time.
When I heard the announcement for the sequel, Puzzle Quest 2, I noticed that the PSP wasn't included among the supported consoles. I asked Infinite Interactive why and they gave me that old line about demand and how we could possibly see it announced later.
That later is now, as Puzzle Quest 2 will come to the PlayStation Store towards the end of 2010. It includes all the standard content but will add a new Elite Mode, where the battles are harder and the rewards greater.
Nice! I kind of feel like they ported this for me. Thanks, Infinite Interactive.

It definitely looked better, but my PSP version always lagged when it was loading special effects, etc.
Yeah, the PSP one had that bug, but I played a lot of the DS version and, to be fair, I rarely used allies.
..and the button-only control scheme worked just fine for me.
I have been saying the same thing-
