Every time I turn on my PSP, I simply have to make a joyful "HOLY FUCK PSP!" unto the heavens, and to praise God for His gift unto gamers, realizing the very purpose of the videogaming industry within my lifetime.

When I turn on my DS -- I think I've done so twice -- I also exlcaim "HOLY FUCK DS" but it's really more of a lament. :(

Anyway, I thought I'd inject a little reality into the latest round of pre-E3 idle speculation. If you haven't bought a PSP yet, you really should; it will change your life.
 
I would, but God wishes that all gamers seek unto Him of their own feet, and not to be carried by even the most faithful of His children.
 
I just wish it didn't hurt my hands so much after short play time with Ridge Racer

I want to play it more than I do, but ... :(
 
For me, it's more like "HOLY FUCK, WHAT A SCREEN" quickly followed by "HOLY FUCK, I'M BORED OF WATCHING MOVIES" before going back to my DS to play Pokemon Emerald and Klonoa 2, then Wario Ware Twisted next week, and Fire Emblem the week after that.

Moral of the story? GBA STILL wins. PSP and DS STILL lose. *sighs*

I know. "Wait til E3", right?

Yeah my hands kill too after not even that long sessions of Twisted Metal. Plus I hate that god forsaken analog nub, but I guess it's better than nothing.

Ditto. The analog nub is pretty assy, and its in a painful location. :( When I used to play Untold Legends, I wished there was a way to delegate primary control to the d-pad, and skill shortcuts to the analog nub. No such luck. :(

You dare insult PSP?!
 
Wario, okay for a certain demograph from the gaming public IE kids. We had a Barbacue at home today in Sunny Wales, bloody freezing actually but the many kids disapeared with the DS and Wario Touch for hours, the PSP and RR were left aside. The market the DS is aimed at it will corner, problem for Nintendo is that market is way to small. And yes the games are fun oh and yes playing RR on the PSP does kill my left hand also.
 
PSP rocks. I play my friend's often, but I am too poor to afford one right now.

But anyone with money should get one or face the judgement of BRITNEY's EVIL EYE!!

I love the damn thing. But much like the DS for its first few months, there isn't much of note to play on it, imho. The novelty of watching movies on the subway kinda wore off, now that a new influx of quality GBA games has arrived/is arriving.
 
I get a tingly feeling whenever booting up the PSP.

Almost done with HSG OT. Its taking a long time to collect shit, especially when the game gets really tough.

I get that feeling too! ... when a game is loading like Darkstalkers or Wipeout and the screen is all black, do you ever see your own reflection in the screen and give a big stupid smile as to say "OMG PSP IS SO BEAUTIFUL!" ... I know you do! don't be afraid to admit it, there's lots of us! :D
 
I find myself buffing and polishing mine all the time, like an old revolver or something. Seriously if these companines want to make the most money out of product for the PSP they should concentrate on cloths and buff products. Make designer ones or ones with characters and stuff. Hmmm....on second thought forget I ever said that.

I don't know if this has been reported on these forums yet, but I've heard from two independent sources that some PSP demos at E3 will be downloadable to your PSP memory stick. That's an awesome idea but sorry if it's a "welcome to last week" or "old!" comment.

Where the fuck is my PS2 versions of Ridge Racers and Wipeout Pure? PSP bashers love to say the games are on the PS2 but they've yet to provide proof that such games exist.
 
And so another thread becomes a Nintendo related thread. :D

If this displeases you, don't look to Hollywood's post above, look to the first post in this thread or at other threads like the "Nintendo Revolution circle jerk thread".

Maybe baiting the Nintendo fans is much more detrimental than people actually liking the DS (OMG!) or posting fake pics and videos of Revolution in seperate threads. I say detrimental, but honestly? I don't give a shit. Make every thread a Nintendo thread.

Darkstalkers does look cool btw. And it'll be interesting to see how the PSP demos work out. Will you need an app to download them for you or will you be able to just download?
 
The analog nub rocks. I'm used to it now and I love it! Such great precision control. Once you realize it isn't an analog stick and get used to the nuances it is an easy transition.

True story from yesterday. I went to Target to see if I could find some PC games on clearance. Headed over to the game case to check things out. Out of the blue a guy contemplating buying a PSP asked me if I had it and what I thought of it. I told him the glory of Sonys portable, and he ended up buying the unit, 6 games plus 3 movies!! Sony hardware/software numbers boost get! I feel it is my duty to let others know about the glory of the PSP. I play it almost exclusively now. So many awesome games out for it!

No, people like to say games just like them and considered better are on PS2. Where's NFS Hot Pursuit, Burnout 3 or 4, etc on PSP?
 
It's a good thing for Drinky that the PSP is small enough to be contained in a body cavity without too much damage. :)

Gotta love the PSP... hehehehehe Oh and on a related topic, I seem to be very good at TM. I keep stealing the little crown when I join games. :)

NO MORE RACERS.

One thing I hate about new hardware launches in the influx of racing games. Ugh.

PS - The 20 dollar Logitech case ROCKS. Beats the piss out of the case which comes with the value pack!
 
I love the PSP, but my DS may have 3 new GBA games to play in the next week. I just can't let go of the old girl.

Yes. Good god that genre is so motherfucking boring.

And racing games ALWAYS look good for whatever hardware they're on (DS aside). They're not THAT good a measuring stick for how other games will appear on the system.

Turn based RPGs?

Oh so VERY boring. I've said again and again that I think Skies is a very average game. However, the way it presented its characters and story was very charming.
 
Well Racing games are simpler then making adventure games etc, get the driving mechanics and you're basically done, all you have to do with the spare time is just sit back and work on the graphics and make it look pretty IE: Ridge Racer

I think turned based RPGs are ok as long as they are quick.
 
Oh god, did the cheque for Sony come in?

one anti-nintendo sticky. check
one sony splooge own wank. check

PSP is nice but not all that. Come on, once the initial shock of new wears over, its just a handheld. I'm want more games for it but that said, I don't see the OMGness of the psp. And mine hasn't been upgraded so I can do that emulation thing so :)

I prefer to game on the consoles though. Playing MGS3 again. That + surround sound > PSP (considering so many of you seem to play it at home)

Seriously. I really need to petition Sony to add

to the features bullet list.
