A new blog? Extraordinary!

I know. Shocking isn't it. A new blog. Many things have happened since my Virtual Console rant. First things first, I got a PSP in mid-July. My opinion of it? It's okay. I find some games on it a bit overrated. Daxter for example. Gamespot gave it a 9.1. A 9.1 for a game in which you exterminate bugs. I was expecting a proper Jak and Daxter game, like the ones on the PS2. Man, those games were brilliant. Especially the first one, before they commercialised the game by giving Jak a gun. But, instead, we get a game about Daxter exterminating metal bugs. The best games that I have on PSP, in my opinion, are Tekken, Metal Gear and Loco Roco. All great games. Sega Mega Drive collection is pretty good but it isn't as good as it could have been. They missed out key games such as Sonic 3, Sonic and Knuckles, Streets of Rage trilogy and Dynamite Headdy which were all great games in teh Sega Mega Drive library. My brother got a PS3 and Resistance is actually a pretty good game. The campaign and online are both great. It also is pretty simple and basic and I like that. It's a change. I haven't played MotorStorm yet as my brother says that it is very slow and kinda realistic. I don't like realistic racers at all. I hate Gran Turismo. I really should play MotorStorm but I'm having too much fun with Resistance at the moment. Super Paper Mario for the Wii is also a very good game. How did WarioWare outscore it here? I seriously don't have a clue. In my opinion, it's the 3rd best game on Wii. And, I'm very happy with what Nintendo is currently doing on the Virtual Console. This "Hanabi Festival", in which games that were never released in Europe will be released on the European VC, is a fantastic idea. Super Mario Bros. 2, thats right the REAL one, is available to download only until the end of the month. Needless to say, I got a Wii Points Card as soon as I heard about this. Sin and Punishment, the superb Treasure N64 shooter, is coming out on Friday but I have to stick to my budget so I won't be getting it for a bit. I need to get Halo 3, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy. Those are only the main games. Don't get me started on Zack & Wiki, Assassin's Creed etc. Anyway, thats the end of my blog. I hope to post more often.
