GHSkinz, a company that specifically makes skins for Guitar Hero and Rock Band instruments is now opening up a line of skins for handheld systems. The PSP is included, but unfortunately has the most ridiculously expensive ones at $10.95 a pop. That’s more than double the price that their Nintendo DS and iPod Touch lines go for.

That’s not to say that their products are not any good; the designs are quite beautiful — just have a look. It just makes us scratch our heads as to why the PSP gets screwed over with such a large bill. Anyway, that’s expensive in our minds but ultimately that’s up to you if you’re willing to pay the price.

Here are some that we found intriguing, either because they’re awesome games or they’re just too cheap to resist (or some combination thereof):
