The PS3 a computer??? I think thats a bit wiered! They should just stick with the console thing, but then again if you want to beat microsoft at their own game you have to do wiered things.
Yes, I think this is a god idea, launching it with alot of games. This will make more people buy it as it has there style of game. I never bought a Gamecube as the games were crap, it had bad graphics and it looked like piece of poo. I think that Nintendo will have to pick up there act with the Wii.
Nintendo is really annoying me with their bloomin mini things! First the Game Boy micro HOW CRAP! YOU CANT EVEN SEE THE SCREEN! Now they go and launch the DS Lite! Are they losing money?
Hello,
I have a PSP system and yes PSP is the ONLY device that uses UMD. I also aggree to you saying this is why it is going down. Infact Sony made/designed the UMD for the PSP.
The battery life on the PSP system is alright. Depending on what your doing with it will decide how long the battery lasts. For example: A game may last up to 7hrs, however a movie may only last 4. You can buy in-car charges, but this is just spending more money.
In response to your question I think it will be an improvement as it will have (yet again) better graphics and sound.
In a way it's dear as they have previously told us that it wont be as dear as the XB 360 but this is dearer. But then again when you think of a blue ray disk....
Well the UMD has great graphics and sound, but I think the reason for it dying is because there are portable DVD players out. There is no point buying the UMD movies for your PSP if you have got a portable DVD player! Whats the point in having a movie on DVD with a portable DVD player and then going out and buying the UMD version of it?!?!?!
Hi guys and girls,
I think this is an EXCELLENT idea! But you could never replace the keyboard with just a mouse. There simply is not enough space to put all the butttons!!! The mouse would help in situations where you need to do fast tactical things like jump, shoot & roll all at the same time. But then you get to reloading, pausing, driving, zooming etc. THERE SIMPLY IS NOT ENOUGH SPACE FOR BUTTONS!
Hi,
Yes I totally aggree. All microsoft is doing is competing with SONY. Everything Sony does, microsoft does. Nintendo have just been sitting there making things as the technology comes along. Yet they have one of the most profitable companys out there. The only major step Nintendo made was the Game Cube (which went crap) there next one is the Wii. Microsoft went form Windows (OS on the PC) to entertainment system in a matter of about 3 years. Sony have always been entertainment system creators (beside there SONY TV etc. brand). Microsoft just came out of no where and want to compete.
GO AWAY MICROSOFT. STICK TO WINDOWS!
I feel this would be totally ripping off the PSP. I mean fair enough we have Game Boys, PSP's, MP3 Players etc. They are all trying to develop around the same thing that is; PORTABLE ENTERTAINMENT. As out lives get buisier, we cant stay at home and listen to music or play games anymore we have to be able to carry it. PDA's are an example of portable internet, IPods, MP3 Players- music, PSP's, Game Boys- gaming. What i'm trying to say is that Microsoft and Sony have always been battling, trying to beat each other. Sony brings out PS2- Microsoft brings out X-Box, Sony brings out PS3- Micrsoft bring out X-Box 360 early trying to beat Sony and lose them money. If microsoft bring out a portable entertainment system it will do everything a PSP does. What will the call it? An XBP (X-Box Portable)???
Well I feel that as Rockstar make more GTA's they get worse. I think that Vice City was good on X-Box but San Andreas is just a bit different. It didn't have a "great" storey line either.
The GTA LCS on PSP was an excellent game. I felt that it was interesting, wasn't to much of a take off of GTA III (even though it was based on it) and had an excellent storey line.
I hope that rockstar make a better game than GTA SA on the 360.
Let me know what you think.....

I think this is a GREAT idea and it will go ahead very fast!
There is no such thing as "cheat proof." Cheaters, hackers and chip installers always find a way around anything. "Where theres a will, theres a way."

How many were upgrades & how many were games? It could be glitches or anything else but thats alot of downloads in 1 week!
What was the point in that? Why would you show something off thats not even the finial? And GC - Wii is quite different!
