[quote name='PhrostByte']Yea Darkstalkers is cool... anyway I think I'm gonna try to talk to my school psychiatrist (if they have one). I'm so tired of being depressed...[/quote]

mayhaps someone should change the name of the thread again to something else?....hope you feel better, as someone who's been to the same school and visited there once, i'd suggest using the opportunity to talk things out and get some feedback, but take any suggestions with a grain of salt unless you're sure you need the degree of help they offer you there. when i went the woman was so impressed with my drama she wanted me to come back and drug me up. heh, um, yeah, i'm not one for brain chemicals so i never showed up, they never followed up, which i was rather unimpressed with. talking things out was cathartic enough for me, but i'm sure you'll make the right decision for yourself. sometimes it's just the stress =P

So it sounds like the PSP is going to be used for a number of things by you. How are the games so far? You wrote a lot about the functionality and the games feeling fresh not rehashed, are there any games that stick out so far for you? How about the game prices? Do they seem to be on par with the quality and hours of enjoyment you are getting from them?[/quote]
multitasking galore! sadly, i do have a teeny tiny stuck pixel problem...just in the corner hiding where I can barely see 'em. I'm still mighty impressed. the picture is just amazing though, it's not something that's marring the experience, more like a diamond with a flaw, when the shine rubs off i'll contemplate being worried about it.
Darkstalkers is what I expected it to be...lol...aw, jeez, i mean, i've beaten a lot of it already, which scares me. when i run out then what? VS mode that's what...only this is *exactly* why i didn't want to buy this game, lol...i know i didn't want to, heh, but i did anyway....i'm a horrible person. oh well. the gameplay on it is great, but holding it I will admit isn't so comfortable after several matches, my left thumb is aching a bit. But I'm a regular player of fighting games, I...I like arcade sticks...of course this isn't going to be some great improved competitive controller, it's a well rounded little system. I wouldn't expect to have paid any less then the $40 i paid though, budget titles just don't release on a new system, it's good buissiness sence. So maybe this will be the first trade in title for the psp somewhere down the line, BUT for right now I'm getting WAY more entertainment from it then I'd get from $40 of gas in my tank. WAaaaaY more.
I pick up untold legends tomorrow...that's the one i've had my eye on since the beginning...and the $50 price tag seems appropriate to me~ i'm not adverse to game manufactuerers making a living. the only thing I don't see spending a high price sticker for is the movies~ a set time, the extras and the versitility aren't going to be like that of a dvd, and it's the same everytime you plug it in. I do however see these things as being phenomenal to rent. emphasis on phenomenal. (assuming i spelled it right). rentable dvd quality discs that are fairly indestructable during regular use, sign me up for a lease in the nearest airport =P
