Looking Forward: Patapon

October 24, 2007 by Nat 4 Comments

A game I’m looking forward to. In the future. On PSP.

More to come.

Up for a game of touch football?

July 21, 2006 by Tony 7 Comments

Because, apparently, if you bought EA’s NCAA 2007 for the PSP that’s exactly what you’re getting. (Via Breaking Windows)

How on earth can IGN give this game a “passable” rating?! The game is completely broken. There is no way this can be redeemed. EA should just give everyone their money back and bury all the discs out in the desert. Terrible.

WTS: Used PSP

April 13, 2006 by Tony 9 Comments

I’m not selling one. But I’m starting to see a rather serious trend here (I could go on, but I’ll spare you). Question is: are there any buyers?

Now that movies on UMD are going the way of the Dodo, so goes the PSP? Will the DS Lite be the final nail in the coffin? Where are the good games, Sony?!

I still have gadget envy everytime I see that gorgeous PSP screen but then I play a game of Animal Crossing. Or Metroid Prime Hunters. And I suddenly feel a twinge of superiority.

Mr. Monk and friends

February 4, 2006 by Tony 6 Comments

I know I’m not alone in my enjoyment of the TV show “Monk“. It’s usually a funny show with enough quirkiness to make anyone laugh. I think they cut some corners today in the set department.

In the episode, Monk is trying to find a stolen diamond and claim a big reward. He’s being followed by a group of wanna-be detectives also after the money. One of them, played by DJ Qualls, is a nerdy detective with all sorts of spy gadgetry. Things were going good until he pulls out a PSP and calls it his “stress detector” (or some such thing). Huh? Is that all the prop people can come up with? Did someone say, “we need something high tech looking. Oh, and black!” and a stage hand pulled his PSP out of his backpack and said, “how about this?” Come on, USA! You can do better than that!

And what does this say about the PSP? It’s already been relegated to bad props on a TV show? That can’t be good.

I’m just sayin…

I’m not trying to bash Sony. This is not flame bait. Nevertheless, this can’t be good.

I’m just sayin’.

All that shimmers is sure to fade

Iced Out PSPPSP for the well-heeled – Saw this over at Kotaku the other day. Gaudy as all get-out, but I still wonder – do people actually buy this stuff, or are these handed out with the hopes someone will see someone famous with their kit. I don’t get it. With the release of the DS, PSP and the upcoming new generation, it seems that gamers have quite a bit of disposable income.

Or at least Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft think we do.
