It's pure crack. Since getting it I've also tried HSG3 and HSG:F, and there's no comparison. This game is best by far on the PSP - so tight and such a joy to behold. This has been the backbone of my PSP purchase.
Almost through MM1, and I plan to make my way through as many as I can. I have never owned a Nintendo console before, so I missed out on the entire series. This has been a nice introduction.

The last couple of missions of GTA3. After that I'll go on with GTA:VC.
And still, when I don't play GTA:
MVP Baseball 2005 - Just starting the World Series in a completely played season...definite'y got my money out of this purchase at $40 CDN.
Fire Emblem - Although not recently, as I'm stuck on a mission that I have simply not taken the time to do properly yet. Still, really enjoying it and will pick up PoR in October.

I just finished Minish Cap, I'll probably move onto DMC3 and play various NES stuff.
It's very enjoyable.Lyte Edge said:
I love it. The combat system is suprisingly addictive as a result of the team work. Attack an enemy until he is staggered and then launch him to one of your partners. They always call out each others names (including yours) before passing. The goal is to keep the enemy in the air as long as possible (either until you miss or he dies). As long as you are juggling the enemy, your super bar charges. There are multiple levels on this bar as well. The bar drains quickly, though, so you need to be ready to pull off a super. A lot of enemies can only be damaged by a super attack, though, so juggling the smaller enemies becomes a large part of it. It really is quite engaging, but takes some practice (they rarely miss a juggle...so you are generally the weak link until you've got a nice handle on it).
The progression seems similar to Chaos Legion, but more interesting. When you enter an area, you generally need to defeat all enemies to continue (though there are other goals as well). Between missions, you are able to upgrades your characters as well as handle any other between levels functions.
The story is suprisingly engaging as well. Lots of good dialog to read and kickass cutscenes. There is some difficult vocab, though, so I still need to keep my laptop handy (I certainly didn't know words like 疫病神 prior to playing this game, so I guess that's good). The presentation is extremely good, though, and the game is loaded with style. The music is also really really good (composed by Michiru Yamane and sounds every bit as good as her CV work) and the visuals are pretty solid (though only 30 fps...).
I'd say it's worth a shot.

Alien Hominid (GC) - Just beat it last night. Invader Zim meets Metal Slug. An excellent game that can be had for cheap. I recommend it.
Legend of Zelda 4 Pack Collection (GC) - Third game I bought I think back in May and just now getting to it (backlog, baby). Playing them all but probably not one after another. Playing the original.
Super Robot Wars GC (GC-JPN) - Stuck at a part but I'll beat it. I stopped playing it a few days ago in favor of Alien Hominid and now Zelda. I will get to it probably after I bet LOZ.
More games to add to the backlog so here's the recent purchases list:
Bust-A-Move 3000 ($15)
Mystic Heroes ($12)
Nintendo Puzzle Collection ($27)
I have $30 in EB credit and I know I'm going to lose that card. Going to get a $9.99 used copy of Metroid Prime probably and a GBA game, probably cart only. Going to DS the cases of GBA games probably so boxes don't matter to me.
Edit: I'm probably also going to import Sonic Gems Collection. I have a $5 off Play-Asia coupon so why not. Streets of Rage > Vectorman.

. How is the game compared to WE8
Killer 7
I was expecting something retardedly artsy for the sake of being retardedly artsy, but this is a pretty intriguing game.
Max Payne Kung-Fu v. 3.0
Sounds cheesy as sin, and it definitely is in some ways, but its one of the greatest mods released. Wish there was a Max Payne 2 edition.
Devil May Cry 3
Not as good as I was hoping, so far, though its mostly just annoyances with the save points and the like. I'm not all that good at it.
Back-of-my-mind considerations:
Mame is nabbing some of my interest lately, but I really need to find a good way to play it. One of the greatest pieces of software ever written, no doubt.
Morrowind might get another full-scale chance from me.
Beneath a Steel Sky is waiting in ScummVM.

I've been playing catch-up of late.
About a week ago, I finally completed
Not as awesome as R&C:GC only because it didn't feel as fresh. It's still great fun and a great game.
Now, I've come back to
which I left dormant for a few months. I started Ch3/Imperial City and I'm still there, but I completed the Necropolis and only have the assassin base to go through to move on to Ch4.
I've been having a very good time w/ this game. Sure the combat is shallow, but I don't think the point of the game is to have a Ninja Gaiden-like combat system. It's just an ARPG. It should be tweaked for a sequel, but it's by no means bad, it just ends being a secondary aspect of the game (the story being primary).
I'm enjoying the story and atmosphere of the game quite a bit. The atmosphere is so different from the typical medival/fantasy/cyberpunk RPG setting that it feels very refreshing. The story is building quite a bit of intrigue, so I'm eager to see where it goes next.
Finally, the game I've played inbetween, around and instead of others
Owner mode is both a blessing and a curse. To a minutae obsessed mofo like me, I have to make sure I find the optimum ticket prices and promos for each and every home game, which drains time and my enjoyment of the game. I have to figure out a way to settle for less than perfection in that sense. Still, it's fun to build your stadium.

Man, I bought this sometime last year and completely forgot I even owned it. I want to play this BAD, but it has to wait until mid-Sept. or so.
I never really played it as much as I should. I had it since it came out. I started playing again this week. All I have to do is beat diamond on master.
This is kept me busy most of the summer. I am almost a vet sniper; just a few more hours to go. I'll probably be the first to get it.

It's a good update. The only thing I wish they would fix is how 6 star difficulty is just cheap. They foul the hell out you still and get whistled like 1 out of 5 times. The ball physics are much better in this one, they feel more realistic. Also the new animations are sweet, especially the way players chest the ball down to their feet.
If you are a fan I would definitely pick it up when it's localized.
