You need to get GTI Club+ and The Last Man for starters. Both amazingly simple games but so addictive.

I thought Bionic Commando Rearmed was pretty cool and worth a purchase.

Pixeljunk Eden is great fun (if a little frustrating!).

Would thoroughly recommend it.

Another vote for GTI club from me - I've had soooo much fun with that - reminds me of when gaming was less complicated...... but a lot more fun

Oh and I picked up Lumines from the US Store - have always enjoyed the Lumines games, but if you've played it on the 360 or PSP, you won't be seeing anything too new with that! Still a lot of fun though.

Second Lumines - much fun and better than the 360 version (IMO) mainly due to the DS3 having the same sort of d-pad as the PSP original.

Noteable mentions for:-

GTI Club, Wipeout, Last Guy, SSF2, Bowling and a blast (literally) from the past, Stardust HD...

Think we are quite spoiled with the choice of PSN games now - I enjoy them as much as full releases most of the time. If I could have one game from the XBL arcarde though, it would be Poker Smash

EDIT: Oops.... just re-read the OP and realised most of the ones I recommend he already has... sorry!

Re: Must buy psn games?

I think the two new ones are pretty dam good.....

Crash Commandos and Himmelstürmer, the first is great if you like playing online and the second is great if you like old skool shoot em ups. Crash commandos is a little on the expensive side though!

Have you got the expansion packs for Super Stardust HD? Both are fantastic and essential IMO
