Tried it. Very fun, but bulky. Screen is great. There is some lag with audio and video. It's nice, but should be priced about fifty dollars less. Just my opinion.

Someone always has got to say something bad... I don't know how you call a 4.5" screen bulky. What do you want, OLED screened on sheet metal that reads games from flash media?

There's alot of features packed into that thing, and $250 for everything that comes with it is fairly priced. Its what the Lynx and TurboGraphix 16 portable were priced at WAY back in the day. My only gripe is that you HAVE to get the bundle and that you can't just buy the system by itself. $189 is very fair for just the system.

Got it this morning

Gonna play with it after school.

**FloorMatt** · 03-24-2005, 11:10 AM

And here's what I'm going to play...

Got it lastnight. Charged it, woke up this morning and started playing with it. The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is smooth. I watched about half of Spider-Man2 and have no complaints about picture quality. I already have it loaded with MP3's and Photo's. I'm very impressed and it's well worth the price of admission, IMO.

Get a game yet? They only had 2 Wipeout's in where I went...

How about the demo disc?

I saw a video of Wipeout Pure - they said they were trying to go back to the roots of the video game. I didn't pay attention to the first couple minutes, when they said it was for PSP, and though it was for PS/PS2 the entire time.

I was wanting to get Wipeout before seeing any reviews......and when I looked at IGN, they gave it the highest rating of the launch titles they reviewed.

It looks really fun. I like games that you can just pick up and play for 5 minutes and put down again. I like "involved" games too, but I like "meaningless" fun too.

...its the Atari in me.

Twisted Metal and THUG 2 Remix...they're both unbelievable. I watched the demo disc, you can't play any of the demo's. They also had a handfull of movie trailers for upcoming new releases.

Online play for Twisted Metal is the main reason I purchased the game.

I can't wait to try online play.......Wipeout Pure was supposed to have "Infrastructure" multiplayer, but the box says Ad hoc. I dunno...

Even if I have to wait 6 months to get one, I'm still going to get one.

hmm... upgrade car or get psp..

chucka · 03-24-2005, 12:07 PM

Got mine, Got NFS underground, Payed for Tiger Woods but it's suppose to be in the shipment today.

I got mine last night from Gamerush at midnight. came home and there was a dead pixel in the middle of the screen. took it back this morning and got a new one it is fine. This thing is great. Couldnt ask for much more out of a hand held gaming system.

There's lag on the aufdio and video? While playing the game? or just watching movies/listening to music...

Wipeout is awesome... I remember playing that like DAMN! lol, 10 years ago! Well, almost... I think about 52 people in America knew what Red Bull was back then... I think I like Wipeout 2, or whatever it was called, the best.
