See below for the full list.

1. Battlefield 1943
2. Final Fantasy VII
3. The Punisher: No Mercy
4. Bomberman Ultra
5. Wolfenstein 3D
6. Namco Museum Essentials
7. Metal Gear Solid
8. Resident Evil: Director’s Cut
9. Mortal Kombat II
10. Zen Pinball

    First!

    I can't believe that MGS 1 is #7 that's crazy you would think that would be top dog. I hear good things about battlefield so I had a feeling that would be #1.

     if they put MGS Twin Snakes or RES1 remake on the PSN i would certainly buy something from the Store.

    why dont they ever release, top downloads of all time

  15. Goseki1

    • 7:48pm BST - August 1st, 2009

    @2/Psychomantis: It doesn't help that MGS has been released on any of the European stores...neither has  Resi. It's stupid....

    Admittedly I have played them both through on my PSP already but it's annoying that they are this delayed in getting a PSN release in Europe

     On that list I have Zen Pinball (pretty good minus a few glitches) and MGS (awesome on my psp!) and the Namco Museum. I will eventually pick up FF7 but other than that these games suck IMO. No mention of Wipeout Fury is suppose because it came so late in the month but pick that one up if you haven't already.

  21. O_G_H

    • 9:17pm BST - August 1st, 2009

    Of course BF 1943 is tops.  Idiots never get tired of shooting each other, yaaaaaay!

    • 11:41pm BST - August 1st, 2009

    • 11:46pm BST - August 1st, 2009

     No Shatter. :( I'm disappointed. Hopefully it's not on the list only because it was released so late in July.

     who cares what genre people play.

    if there's anything i cant stand its people who pick on people because of the games they play, and people who play tower defense games. god i hate tower defense games.

    ... everybody point and laugh at me i just ripped of a ten year old movie

    jk tower defense games kick butt... sometimes

    battlefield 1943 will be No 1 for August too, everyone should get it.

  35. PsychoMantis | KuruptX

    • 9:00am BST - August 2nd, 2009

    Theres a reason even though im 2nd that I said first because the first poster is always "first!" with nothing legit to say about whats on topic so if you really look at the situation the 2nd poster always has the actual first post NOOBs. =)

    Good showings for MGS and RE!

    • 2:04am BST - August 3rd, 2009

    I feel sorry for the people who bought Punisher cause it sucked  Battlefield 1943,  and FF7 are the top 2 for a reason

  42. Jules909 | jules909

    • 4:30am BST - August 3rd, 2009

    I've got BF1943, Zen Pinball, MKII and Wolfestein 3D, the first 2 I play alot.

    • 5:59pm BST - August 3rd, 2009

    it's amazing how mortal kombat 2 it's still in the top 10

    btw, the difficulty level on the version available on the psn, is really @#^#&@ high! I've only know 1 guy who have completed that game

    battlefield is excellent, I tryed the demo and it was really cool; I think I will buy this but I still have several other games to complete first
