[quote name='RelentlessRolento']The only thing I don't like is that I'll be keeping my 2000 to play all my UMD shit...

It's genna be weird having 2 PSPs.[/QUOTE]

Sony would be stupid not to allow you to get your UMD games onto the flash memory and memory stick.

If they figure out a way I can do this, then I have nearly no complaints then about the Go other than the lack of a second analog.

I wouldn't put it past them.

That is kind of a hard problem to solve when you think about it. How do they verify that you do have the game?

Only way I can see that happening is if you send them your games, and I doubt they'd want you to do that.
 
If I actually go to college in the city I would seriously think about getting a PSP Go! for the commute which my brother's friend who went there this year (but transferred, I'm probably going to transfer too, unless I somehow love it) said is about 1.5 hours each way.

The games are pretty good. (looking at ign)

MLB The Show 09
Daxter
Ratchet
Gd of War
Motorstorm
FIFA
LittleBigPlanet
Jeanne D'Arc
Hot Shots 2
Socom FTB3
Star Wars Battlefront
 
Yeah college seems like a good time. I'll find myself exposed to more races then "white redneck", which means I will either gain a greater appreciation for other cultures or commit my first hate crime.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']At this time next week I will have been a high school graduate for more than 24 hours.

Crazy.[/QUOTE]

Enjoy it while it lasts. :)

I personally loved high school. College...it was fun at first.
 
Yeah, only thing I hated about high school was teachers, and getting up at 5am. :/
I miss the simplicity, and I'm only 20.

Anyway, does UFC 09 have Co-op at all? It says 2 player online - is that only VS or is there a co-op mode?
 
5 am shit mang I get out of bed around 7....

[quote name='nyprimus4']What universidad JSP?[/QUOTE]


Edinboro University in PA. Try to ignore the giant tool on the front page, he's never been there before but now he's taken over.

EDIT: Okay there's a different person everytime you click it now so nevermind that.
 
Edinboro

  • 1% American Indian/Alaskan Native
  • 1% Asian/Pacific Islander
  • 10% Black/Non-Hispanic
  • 2% Hispanic
  • 85% White/Non-Hispanic
  • 1% Non-Resident Alien
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']One thing great about university:

classes later in the day. Sure you get morning classes, but it's nice to have days you can wake up at noon and get to class later.[/QUOTE]
You tease me sir.
 
[quote name='nyprimus4']You tease me sir.[/QUOTE]


sorry for the tease >_<

but yeah, it's nice to only have classes 2-3 times a week if you plan things out nicely enough. it's nice to have days just for homework.
 
JSP, I've been out to the Edinboro area before. It's nice, you'll enjoy it.

I went to school at Lock Haven, although I kind of had an opposite experience then you're looking for (live in a suburban area and spend most of my time in Philly, went to school with a bunch of rednecks)
 
I hope that "leaked" picture of PSP Go is a fake. The analog stick is over way too far to the right. It looks like it would be impossible to hold the device without it being unstable in the hands. And overall, as far as technology goes, it just seems like a step back. You'd think the PSP would've started with a pull down control panel and in the next iteration they managed to fit all the buttons on the face.

I have a lot of hopes for the new PSP though if the rumors are true that the online store is going to be a rental service. That's the way to make digital distribution work in my opinion. Buying the rights to purchased items bothers me because I'll never be able to keep it forever. So the logical thing to do is just have digital rentals ... at REASONABLE prices that are reflective of a rental.
 
Sony's HD movie rental prices are a little above reasonable, so I don't expect anyone to be happy about what they'll charge for game rentals.

How would co-op work in a 1 on 1 fighting game?

I really, really wish you die a horrible, slow, agonizing death.

Really, die soon plz.
 
My brother and I are going to fill out some job applications today.

Side note: I wonder if the PSP Go! is small enough that it would be a reasonable MP3 player? And I also obviously wanna know the other two big factors, price and battery life. That would be sick if they were able to get the stock battery to last like 8 hours.
 
You know what I was thinking... what if Sony figured that since they are eliminating the used game market with the PSP and only sold voucher codes for games they would slash the price of PSP Go! to $99? I mean they've had the technology since 2003.
 
I really like Infamous, but I hate Cole's voice. It was annoying but ok with Batman because I could kind of justify it by saying he was disguising his voice. This was kind of proven because he didn't use that voice as Bruce Wayne, but Cole just sounds ridiculous. That's apparently how he naturally talks? Anytime he says something I just can't take it seriously because of his "30 packs a day" voice.
 
[quote name='nyprimus4'] price of PSP Go! to $99?[/QUOTE]

Not likely at all. With 16GB internal memory, there's no way they'd release it under $199. I wouldn't be surprised if the PSP Go! launched at $299.
 
How much are 16GB iPod touchs'? Which is essentially the same kind of device the PSP Go! is going to be, just with bigger file sized games.
 
[quote name='nyprimus4']The iTouch was released two and a half years after the PSP. Just food for thought. $99-$149 would be the sweet spot for me to pick one up.[/QUOTE]


Yes, but weren't they like $349 when they came out and they're still in the $300 range?

And the PSP has been out for almost 4 years and still hasn't cracked the sub $150 mark.
 
I'll admit $99 is a pipe dream but I think $149 for a Piano Black 16GB PSP Go! (and a voucher for a greatest hits game?) sounds very realistic. And the price cut is the perfect marketing technique for what they're trying to pull off. Put more systems out on the market so more people will be buying software, which will be directly from the PSN Store, no 3rd parties making money off used game sales. If they make it $199 or even higher it's already at an entirely different plateau which Sony, if smart enough, wouldn't put it at.

I agree a $149 price point would most likely be the best idea if not a little cheaper. But, as you said, it's Sony, and I wouldn't put it past them to price it higher than $199.
 
And the thing is that if they announced at E3 that a $150 Go! is showing up in the fall, the 3000 sales would suffer.

Two ways to cure that situation...
Release Go! in June.
Cut the price of the 3000.

It's real. They showed it on the lastest ep of Qore.

Eh? his voice is fine.
