The powers that be at Capcom and Sony have once again come together to increase the value of the PSP, so now the masses can clap and shout with glee.

But enough of the bad rhymes. The PlayStation Store has added two new PlayStation Portable games from Capcom in the forms of DarkStalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower and Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X.

For those unfamiliar with the titles, Capcom offers these brief details:

The fresh and classic: Mega Man Maverick Hunter X is a remixed, remastered, re-awesome version of Mega Man X (a la the SNES). When Sigma leads a group of Reploids in a revolt against mankind, it's up to X and Zero to protect the world from ruin.

It's still side-scrolling, but we've updated it with 3-D graphics, remixed music, and unlockable features. If you like good games, this is one of them. That's what it comes down to. Ask anyone who knows, Mega Man X rocks. I almost failed my Discrete Mathematics test Sophomore year when it failed to have any of the Mega Man Maverick Hunter X I had studied the week before.

The smooth and sleek: Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower brings the elegance of vampires to a smooth, sleek fighting game. Choose your character, then decide which of five different fighting styles you want, each of which heralds from its own game in the Darkstalkers series.

With a game like Darkstalkers, the attraction is simple: come for the characters, stay for the gameplay. Succubus vs. Vampire? Yeti vs. Cat-Woman? These are matchups you have to see. When you get your hands on the game, it actually proves itself to be a functional and sophisticated fighting game. It's like hearing a supermodel spout off on jab connectors and proper combo technique—it's the best of both worlds.

I can't speak for this iteration of DarkStalkers personally, but Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X is a game which demands your attention, and I hope that it does well enough on the PlayStation Network to warrant a possible sequel down the line.
