| I forgot about Shift... Well Carbon, Underground, etc were all meh to me. I was excited about Most Wanted being the return of cops, but it was mainly just Carbon in the day with cops in it. Shift was actually pretty good, but it was just a "hold-me-over" until Gran Turismo 5. It really wasn't even close to GT5 and Forza is better as well. Imo, at least. I still liked the game, but I'm so happy they're going back to Hot Pursuit. |

| I've never heard anyone say the Wii is in last.... It's way ahead, but it doesn't have the massive sells it did back when it first came out. |

| Very interesting to see the PS2 still doing so well after 10 YEARS!! This is all official data from each console's respective manufacturer(January-September). Wii - 8.45m PS3 - 8.1m 360 - 5.8m PS2 - 4.8m Now for an interesting comparison, lets compare these official numbers to what VGChartz is reporting... Now I know some will argue that the official numbers are shipped and VGChartz tracks actual sells(how, I don't know, they have nothing to go off of) but if that were the case then how did Nintendo sell more than they shipped? ROFL VG Chartz numbers: Wii - 9.2m PS3 - 7.4 360 - 7.0 http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=es&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=es&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nicagamerz.com%2Fv6%2Fnews%2F422%2Ftotal-de-ventas-de-consolas-mundiales-desde-enero-a-septiembre-2010%2F |

| Well I think it's ridiculous now days... With modern consoles all they have to do is add new songs via DLC instead of whole new games. They are getting old and I really don't think they're as popular as when it first came out on PS2. They'll always stay popular enough to keep making them probably though. |

| PSP Go price slash! |

Yeah, there are many factors. Personally, I've owned every PSP they made. I've owned a 1st gen, 2nd gen, 3rd gen, and a Go. I always upgraded when a new one came(found ways of doing that for cheap) out but sold the Go to fund a PS3 purchase. I was tinkering with the idea of getting a Go again on Craigslist(although most have only been in the $180 range) but with this price drop I may just get it new... I mainly just want a portable game system that can play MP3s. I've owned a few iPod Touches but they suck for gaming. A touch is better than a PSP as far as music organization goes but a PSP is 10xs better than a touch for gaming so it evens out. Yeah you don't get tons of apps, but most of those were useless junk anyway. |

| Well in his case he already had a PSP so it's not a good example. Also I know what you're saying, but if $200 is too much for you then how do you justify any handheld or even have the right to say you are a handheld person? They're all $170-$200 and the 3DS is going to be even more expensive(same price as a PS3)! There are no handhelds on the market where you couldn't get a console for slightly more if not the same price. If I didn't have a PS3 I definitely would not consider a PSP, but I've got all of my console needs met so I don't think about what console I could get for that price. Also there are people who just want a portable game device and don't care about consoles(look at Japan where handhelds dominate). |

I agree $250 was expensive, but you are saying it's still not worth it because it's the same price as the Wii. I'm just saying, it's a completely different device and shouldn't be compared that way. I guess you just aren't into the handheld market then and it's understandable(although I don't see how the Wii is revolutionary. It certainly wasn't in my book as motion controls were already around well before it came out). |

| They are completely different products... That's like saying why get a DSi XL or DSi when a Wii is the same price or only $30 more... Or even better, why get a 3DS when a Wii is cheaper... I mean sure you could get a console but it's not portable. Also I already have a console, so I have no need for a Wii. |

| It's all preference and I know some key games aren't on PSN for the Go but I would definitely take the Go over the Ghost of Sparta pack. 4 gigs just isn't enough(when I had my 3k I had an 8 gig) and I don't want to spend more for a 16 gig card. Plus the Go is just a better design with more features like BluTooth, 3G connectivity to internet(via BluTooth to a cell phone), and in-game pausing. So I really would not consider a 3k anymore but that's me. Also I have games bought on PSN already(Chains of Olympus, Crush, Rockband, and a bunch of PS1 games) so if I get a PSP again, I'm already set with games. haha It does come with three free games though if you buy the one with it advertised on the box. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/PSP-Hardware/PSPgo/pcmcat190200050029.c?id=pcmcat190200050029 |

I've always liked the Go's design much more than the original's(which is pretty bulky) and I have even owned one. I got mine used off of Craigslist because the price at $250 was just too much, imo. Now it's only $199 new and I'm tempted to get one. With 16 gigs built in, it's a much nicer package than a PSP 3000 with game combo for the same price.

| I read a lot of posts but skipping over the recent mumbo jumbo, I'd like to point out that the old games did reuse ideas on badnicks. Angel Island had a monkey that was similar to coconuts on Sonic 2... Metropolis used a similar badnick to Crabmeat in Sonic 1... |

| That would be a Zetaboards thing as I could not even tamper with something to do that. The best I could do is the Mobile skin which pretty much eliminates most styling and images to load faster. I really made it so my PSP would load the site much better. |

Yes, as of now there really isn't anything I need to do. The forum will continue on and live for a long time without dying, if ever. The main reason for that is the amount of effort I put into it from the beginning. In April we will be 5 years old. ![]() |

I'm 22 and it's not too childish for me... Anyway I got the entire set for my rockstar costume now! Leather jacket, tight leather pants, cowboy boots, wig, bandana, bullet belt, barbed wire bracelet. Woot! Also, Muck, those are very impressive carvings!! I would never have been able to do something that good. |

| This is the only Mario game I ever liked. It's awesome and up there with any classic game like Crash 3, Gex 3, Sonic Adventure, etc... I was just watching a speed run last night where a guy beat the game in 15 minutes, it was CRAZYYYYY!!! Although he cheated and glitched his way through a portion of it, but amazing nonetheless how he could go so fast and know where everything is. |
