We were luckily spared the pain of hearing that song Pacman Fever here in Australia (or at least I never remember hearing it before) but we had Space Invaders song which was kinda cool! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-9CkkoISYw) We also had LOADS of Pacman toys and stuff you could buy in the 80's like cards, stickers and bed sheet sets. Try finding them now!
One thing I've loved the most about PSP's is that brilliant screen. If this is new and improved I may even get tempted to grab one! Maybe this is the kick start PSP needed to catch up to DS.
Commenting on a Beta is pointless. I couldn't personally get into the beta club but to be honest I'd rather hold out till the real deal. Besides... I personally would like uber cool graphics and all but if the game play is lousy I'd rather pass. I've played really great looking rubbish titles in the past and wouldn't want the same thing happen to the one series that has re-kindled my passion for video gaming.
This is a big big step in the right direction. MS are basically using their strengths to their advantage. Sony and Nintendo can only suffer more if MS continue to incorporate more tightly knit features such as these!
1) Gran Theft Auto: San Andreas (Xbox) - Man that game would just keep ya exploring for a lifetime me thinks! 2) NHL 2006 (Xbox) - A guy needs his sports and mine is Hockey (strange for an Aussie I know but... I'm strange!) 3) Mario Kart DS (DS) - Does this island have a hot spot? Hmm... may have to reconsider this one! 4) Halo 2 (Xbox) - This almost falls into the same catergory as Mario Karts query. Just shows how important online gaming has become! 5) Shenmue (DC) - Did I hear a pin just fall? No that is my final game! I just spent a week in Japan and I can't believe how well Sega captured the vibe of this country! The innocense of that game is something I truly admire.
