Not sure if they should drop the score do to system requirements. I remember when PC Gamer reviewed DOOM III. That was a beast when it came out (if you wanted to experience it all) and they didn't knock that down. Gamespot might be another issue though.
Prior to Microsoft buying Bungie, Halo was in development for the Dreamcast, then it did actually switch to PS2. They had most of it done till they realized the potentional of the XBOX and the big wallet backing it up.
I would honestly skip blockbuster. I would just go with Gamefly over the internet. You just pay a monthly fee and send the game back through the mail when you're done with it. No restocking fees, or charging you for the full price of the game. Just a simple monthly is all they need. www.gamefly.com
I have just updated to 1.8 and am very disapointed. Now when I try and play a ps2 game, instead of filling up my entire screen in 480, my tv says it's running in 1080i but the image is just a square in the center of the screen. The image quality is the exact same, but now the image is a lot smaller. On top of that, durning the installation it states that some games will not even work entirely and that copyrighted DVDs (every legal copy of a movie) will not work. Thanks Sony. Isn't the whole point of "upscaling" is so that you can improve the image quality of the DVDs you rent and own legally? By doing this Sony is just begging for people to rip DVDs to remove the security and then re-burn them in order to upscale. If anyone can fix this problem with the ps2 games please let me know. These are the games that i tried and failed.
