nice interview.

 

I love how people think that 'it won't sell on Wii unless grandma will want it'. Anyway, that interview hints at a 360 version; nice to know. Microsofts 1 year advantage has really them tbh; a lot more than i ever thought it would.

So I just ordered a PS3, Resistance, MotorStorm and a HDMI cable off of Dabs.com for £430. Assuming I don't have an attack of buyer's regret before it ships, I should have it by the end of the week.

 

The funny thing is that upscaled PS2 games is what pushed me over the edge, notably, of all things, the release of Tomb Raider: Anniversary. The upscaler in my TV is rubbish, and from what I hear the PS3 does a very good job on DVDs, too.

 

I know there isn't much coming out in the near future, but I have a backlog of PS2 games to play and hopefully the stuff that's currently available will see me through the drought.

Good for you! :)

 

Well, if you import...you got Lair in July and Warhawk around the sametime.

 

Not forgetting Singstar July 6th (if you like that).

 

Then you've got this massive blow-out in September when alot of first-party games are gonna come.

 

Hope you enjoy it when it comes anyway.

is it any good? I've always been tempted to get it, but wary of being dissapointed due to being spoiled by the awesome warioware (which imo this games looks like a clone of)

Well no-one bought 'Crush' then?

 

Because, i think you should if you own a PSP. It seems to be a cult hit already.

 

It's supposadely very good.

 

(Going to keep going on about it, till someone gets it :laughing: )

It's a little like Super Paper Mario! It's a puzzle game however.

 

You enter 2D worlds which at certain times go into 3D i believe...

Nice, may have to get it soon then when ive got a bit of money to spare.

 

Has anyone got Burnout Dominator? I keep thinking about getting it as I love Burnout games but I think its still a bit more money than im willing to pay currently.

Sony have started a new PSP ad campaign, dubbed "Dude, get your own". While the name sounds bad, the advertisements are actually probably the best Sony ads in a long long time, although that's not really saying anything after the mess that was "This is living".

 

View them here, I laughed at a few of them. Reminds me of a kinda The Office style humour.

Do you have it set to Full-Screen under the Game options menu? Should sort things out.

That game is so unbelievably awesome, I cannot begin to express how in words. It's an amazing improvement from TR:Legend, and Legend was great to begin with.

I'm really loving TR Anniversary also. It looks great upscaled on my TV. It's the only game I ever play at the moment.
