okay i'm adding an xbox (original) to the mix im sure i dont need to repeat and i'm gonna put everything up on ebay now that its close to christmas. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME ANY ACTUAL POINTERS THIS TIME?
They just had the barbie island princess float and that shit was scary, she danced with her gay brother and touched elephants while wearing a peacock ass on her shoulders, I dont keep up with the whole barbie scene but god damn.
Today is gonna be awesome/krap because my mom is doing thanksgiving dinner all by herself... i'm hoping my sister shows up. But we cleaned up the whole house and it's ready for all the visitors and the turkey is actually the size of the oven. I dont mean "hehe! its a large turkey!" I mean it's the - size - of the - oven, we cant even fit it in. Why does that sound like gwen stefani lyrics to me? ;( but I just woke up and all hell is about to commence and just wanted to say HAPPY THANKSGIVING TENDO CITY!!!!! be sure to say hi to those family members you dislike for me and if someone brings Rum Balls or Spinach Dip save me some because god dammit im coming over and I like your sister in that way.
Who has seen that video? What is your thoughts? Do you have a medical story? I know I met a girl from Ohio who moved to Canada because her family could not afford medical care in America.
So apparently... if your game doesn't support THEIR controller, they are to blame. Also, if their game doesn't support YOUR controller, they are to blame.

Well about time! Basically it's a web site that allows for the download. It kinda should be a feature in the PSP, but hey everyone has a PC so it's fine. Plus, as a web site it can be accessed in the PSP, but the downloading part? Not so sure... "Out of memory" is a common error in that browser and it very well could be an issue. I'll need to test it later.
On top of that, Sony is now selling PSP games as downloads, like F-Zero "inspired" Wipeout Pure. That's great but considering space limitations I think I'd rather go with buying the ol' UMD and using my Filer app to rip games onto my stick when needed. Still a great option for when they just stop producing the disks for older games. Too bad I don't WANT the older games... The PSP really only became something I play often recently with all the top notch games that came out in the past few months (Silent Hill Origins, Castlevania Dracula X, Final Fantasy Tactics Lion Wars, Disgaia Afternoon of Darkness, Jeanne D'Arc (okay, 3 of those are remakes, but Dracula X at least containes a game never released in America before and that's essentially new).
So yeah, nice new feature. However, it needs some annoying download program installed to use the site for some reason. I'd think a decent page security protocol would prevent illegitimate downloads, and well, once that thing's on my PC, I can still do whatever the heck I want with it.
Edit: Okay I just checked and... ah that's a little disappointing. When I go to the store's site on my PSP I get a web page telling me that it is designed to be accessed on a personal computer. Guess the browser on the PSP does it's job reporting what it is and what system it's on. They should add support for the store onto the system itself next, though this addition of proper PC support really is enough for me, and perhaps the majority of people. It would prevent me from needing to install yet another browser plugin though. I hate overloading stuff with that kind of stuff.
So they basically copied the intro of Castlevania 1 word for word. That shows some promise but this is a video game movie we are talking about here. Seems interesting. You know they'll be adding a side kick or someone Simon can actually talk to though. I mean it's a movie.
A security system analyst for some random company? What possible contacts could he have, and why does that title matter except to give a false sense of credibility? I'm not sure I buy it, certainly not just because Evan Wilson says so, even if he IS a great securities analyst for Pacific Crest themselves.
There's also the matter of the details. Bigger screens? As it stands those screens are as big as they can get without making the system bigger, and making it thinner at the cost of making it wider doesn't sit well with me. Removing GBA support? Aside from not being able to play GBA games on one any more, cutting into sales of GBA games that are still going fairly strong (though I do play the majority of my GBA games on my SP), that also removes support for the add-on packs Nintendo's been making for the DS, such as the rumble cart (supported by like 3 games and none in a good while actually), and more importantly the SD card slot. Would they just add native rumble to the thing and replace the GBA slot WITH an SD card slot? Further, doesn't the DS make use of the old GBA hardware as a secondary processor? It would essentially still be able to play GBA games but just lack the all important slot, which doesn't seem like that big a cost saver considering the money to be made from adding it through GBA game sales. Also, what's this "on-board storage" even supposed to do anyway? DS games don't tend to use memory cards as it is, and it seems like quite a bit to spend on a feature that games don't even use. Designing NEW games to access it would also segregate the market between older DS models and the new "hotness". Further, if the idea is to have it replace the SD card adapter, well it's pretty limited then because it would STILL have to have a slot to copy in data from an actual SD card to put pictures and MP3s and so on in there (if it's for stuff like some MP3 player software), and if you are going to plug in an SD card to copy anyway you might as well just USE that SD card.
The whole thing seems fishy to me. I mean the GB got two remodels (the pocket and the later "Lite" released only in Japan that was basically a Pocket system with a backlight), but generally they only remodel their systems once.
