Those cheeky little gimps.

So this is the new tagline of the PSP?
'Revolution what now? Isn't that sony?'

Mind you, it's hardly a surprise, this is the company that shafted everyone with E3 Tekken 'demos' that basically lied about the PS2's capabilities.


Ah well, ninty finally get their ass in gear with a bit of advertising, then sony hand them that very same ass, by showing them how cheap media manipulation should be done.

I foresee ninty getting shafted again. Nice guys finish last, and nice guys who are incapable of presenting themselves in a positive light, while nasty guys kick them in the nuts, don't even make it as far as the finish.

I was chatting with him, and he made me have a go, and he said that of the staff members were playing in the back room. So I was playing with him, which was pretty cool. A bit slow though, you have to wait for each turn, but it was good fun.

Edit: He just gave me the already set-up PSP so I don't know mate, sorry.

How did you get to play multiplayer with the manager of it?

I can't connect to anyone over wi-fi if I want to play multiplayer games yet the browser works.

Yeah, Wipeout totally rocks. So does that Golf game (played multiplayer with the manager of Game, woo).

Yeah, the PSP has suitably impressed me and the amount of games for launch......whoa.

So shouldn't it be: "My friends have no decent PSP games".....?

Oh, and a quick 5-minute bash on a mate's PSP doesn't exactly count as 'playing' a game - you know, from start to finish, seeing the good points and the bad points.

I'm not saying every PSP game is perfect, yes there are some crappy ones, but there are some absolute gems too - far better (IMO) than anything the DS could provide.

I have. Some friends of mine have imported PSPs.

Now, when you say you'd buy new Mario games when they come out, does that include Mario Mix?

If the prospect of new Zelda doesn't get you moist, then, no, you really shouldn't be buying a Ninty console.

Pfft, complain about Zelda and Mario 'remakes' all you want, I'll buy them quite happily.

Why do people buy Pro Evo year after year then?

I'm not all that bothered about whether a game is original or not. It's like watching an old film on video. If you like it, you'll watch it again and again. Or I do. :-)

I'd happily buy a Rev for the classic games. It's one of the main reasons I plan to buy one anyway. RareNet claim that the Rev will also play Nintendo's entire catalogue of Nintendo's old games, which means I can play al lthe classic games that I wanted but missed. Also means i can play again the games I loved but never finsihed/don't have anymore.

It all depends what sort of games you're into, and I think what Nintendo are trying to do with the Revolution is try to cater for every type of gamer - people who liked the classics, and people who want new games, which will probabkly be Revolution's downfall.
