[QUOTE="munu9"][QUOTE="Svarthek"][QUOTE="Svarthek"] wow...youve never played a psp before :) I have played the PSP briefly, I would have played it more if there was more than 1 or 2 games that I was even remotely interested in. One when wants to state whether a system has compelling games, one shouldn't use one's own experience and opinion. Look at all the AAAE the psp has. And the many good AAE's. It has a more than compelling library. Perhaps it's irrelivant, but I never said the PSP is bad gaming system in general, just that I (personally) didn't find it compelling. No one should feel they have to defend it because of that. I guess I just decided to interject becasue I'm a jerk. ;)
I think that if OnLive succeeds it would be a tough contender for any of the big three. If this generation has tought us anything the Top Dog and Under Dog can switch positions faily suddenly. If I were to suggest anything to a company looking for their place in the console market it would be to be unique. To answer your question: I guess Sony should be scared of everyone right now. Microsoft is beating them at their own game, and Nintendo and OnLive have their own unique niche. Sony had better be paying attention.
May I play Devil's advocate here and suggest that Capcom is possibly charging extra for multiplayer because their budget was exceded by the development of the multiplayer mode. I mean it's always possible that they're just ripping us off hardcore, but if I were to hazard a guess other than pure boneheaded consumer exploitation it would certainly be that.

I have played the PSP briefly, I would have played it more if there was more than 1 or 2 games that I was even remotely interested in. Briefly? now thats self ownage. Not really. How long does one have to play Superman 64 to know it's horrible? There have been several occasions where I've looked at the PSP library and found very little, or at least not enough to warrent the purchase of a PSP. Maybe you shouldn't be so quick to judge someone whom you don't agree with, and spit the same GS meme garbage everyone else on the board uses to argue their point.
PSP2: Twice as powerful, exactly as many compelling games as before, and by that I mean very few.

um... if you don't argue opinion.. then what do you argue? You argue opinion, but you back it up with actual facts and (gasp!) logic. Yeah, I guess that was more or less what I was trying to say :P
Casual gaming is simply the by product of gaming becoming a more widespread and "acceptable" (bad word but you get the point) form of entertainment and expression. There have always been mediums (books, television, movies) aimed at pleasing or appealing to those who don't make a hobby out of reading or watching or in gaming's case playing. But there has always been books for readers, movies for movie nuts, and there will always be games for gamers. BAW less.
