L.S.D

Just watch episode 79. Man, it is getting more boring and boring

Why can;t they make a RPG instead of changing it to team based FPS?!? I HAVE ENOUGH OF TEAM-BASED FPS!

Wii seems to be the only one trying to change the way games played. PS3 and 360 still giving us the same things.

After reading the report............ Wii, here i come!!!

Where can I see Nintendo's pre E3 conference?

Glad to know that we have a representative, whom we can trust Maybe GC should just give him a 1emu shirt and ask him to wear it at E3 all the time

Hey, who vote to buy on launch day?!?

That is for another poll BTW, the controller still look the same as PS2?!? I thought they want to use the banana/ass masturbator controller?

Two config available: One with 20GB HD - $499 One with 60GB HD - $599 I will wait for a price drop

I feel bored, reading from IGN report. I don't bother with the videos.

The price would be off limit to most Asians, me think. Or at least, people from my country. 2/3 of my salary, which I could use for better things

Sexy, no doubt. I would say Namco screw this up. If only it have more levels.... It would so enjoyable....

Not really. The Wii controller can do a lot more. It can actually judge distance from the screen which is a huge difference. The PS3 controller also can't act a pointing device. The second part of the nunchaku Wii controller is probably more like the PS3 controller but the main remote is quite different. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I still cannot understand the usage of judging distance in a game. Oh well, there might be some new creative game from Nintendo on this.

PS3 price will put you off

Damn, I have to get a PS2 again if Yakuza is on PS2. THe closest thing to Shenmue

Changing it to my money, it will cost me RM 2280, 2/3 of my salary. No PS3 for me, it seems

They have open up the door for developers to develop games for Wii and PS3 since both controllers feature almost the same features (Nintendo have less buttons though)

Which they copied from Nintendo, me think

Take note of the PS3 controller

I KNOW Fatal would reply to this thread I'm not a Virtua Fighter fan....so.....

Lol, are you telling me Daeval has not send you your Mai poster?!?

Before I forget, Daeval, I want a sexy SNK poster like the one you get for K'Dash last year Tell me what you want

It's all about trying to get the market share first. If you get your products out first before your rivals, you will gain more shares. Which Microsoft adopts for the XBOX360.

Game: Me and My Katamari System: PSP Katamari. A sticky ball. Any objects get rolled over by this ball will get stuck on it. Trust the Japanese to come up with this weird idea of a game, with weird characters, and weird settings. This is my first time playing this game after seeing great reviews from fellow gamers and online review site. I have never buy and play the PS2 version because it was too weird for my taste. I mean, c'mon, how can rolling up objects fun?? Anyway, the Katamari story revolving around King of Cosmos, who always make a blunder, and his son, the Dashing Prince, who always help to clean up the mess. This time, the Royal Family is taking a holiday on Earth where they go to the beach to enjoy. It seems that the King of Cosmos acidentally create huge waves while swimming which wipes out the nearby islands causing the animals to be homeless. So, the Prince has been instructed to help the animals by rolling up objects to create islands for them. Graphics: The graphic on the PSP is not the best that you have ever seen, but the cartoonish and blocky style is quite interesting and unique. The objects in the game are not so detailed but you can still make out what the hell are the things that you rolled up. However, there are still some minor downgrade in this department. Whenever the katamari get to a certain size, it will "eat" up the objects you rolled and only show some of the larger objects on the katamari. it seems that this was to avoid taxing the PSP CPU from showing too many objects on the screen at the same time. However, it STILL causes some slowdown during the transition whcih might bother some people. Graphic: 7.5/10 (decent graphics but hampered by a little slowdown in some places) Sound: Ok, I admit. I am hooked to the "Na,na......na,na,na,na,na,na,na...." music. The music is very addictive in this game. I can't help whistling to the tune in my head all days. The bgm selection is taken from previous Katamari series, with some remixes, but since this is my first Katamari game, i don;t mind it at all. THe sound effect is all in a fun and cartoonish way. You will hear people screaming, car honking, the squeaking sound made by Prince's feet when he walks or cow mooing. Fun Sound: 9/10 Controls: A lot of people was put off by PSP control which do not have the 2nd analog stick to use. Namco made changes to the control by assuming the DPAD is the left analog stick and the face buttons and the right analog stick. THe result? Not a good one. I can only play this game for about one hour plus due to my thumbs aching. And it is extremely hard to some of the more advanced movement. I only used the basic commands to move and turn the katamari and not bothered with the advanced controls. Katamari perfectionists who like to execute even the smallest turn would find this PSP version, a nightmare to control. Controls: 6/10 Gameplay: Rolling is fun! Yeah, right, for about 2 -3 hours. Seriously, the game was fun. The menu was not the usual menu interface type where you choose what to do. Instead you control the Prince who can roam around in an island, and objects on the island is your menu item. Animals represent the levels that you can choose to play in, there is a rowing bowl (yes, rice bowl) for you to row to the next islands and such. The game was full of fun and humour, with the King of Cosmos always dishing out his weird sense of wisdom. You will feel the satisfaction of rolling up objects especially those huge objects. I am extremly pleased when I rolled up my country, Petronas Twin Towers which bored the description of the highest tower in the world with the ability to add up the height by adding the antenna But all this fun will last only until you complete the game for the first time. You will begin to notice that there are not much levels in this game. Worse still, the levels are not very big and it will hamper you from rolling more objects. You will have to come back to the same place again and again in hope that you can roll up some objects that you missed. And some of the later levels are only a combination of the few earlier level! IT BORED ME TO DEATH! After playing for about 20 times, you would have seen all of the levels. it really put me off from playing this game again. Also, there will be a midlevel loading which was not long but it hampers the flow of the game. However, perfectionists will be very happy to found that you have lots of objects and secret items to roll up to complete the archives. THere are also Prince's cousins whom you can rolled up and used in the missions too. But they don't have any special abilities and play just like the Prince, so it's not a biggie here. I would say the only saving grace here is the mini game which you unlocked when you complete the game. A 2D Katamari game ala NES. Gameplay: 6/10 (small levels really bring this game down) Overall: Graphics: 7.5/10 Sound: 9/10 Control: 6/10 Gameplay: 6/10 Overall: 7/10 If only Namco put more levels into the game.......It would be so much funner than this PSP version. In fact, I found myself playing the mini game more than the actual game. Katamari fans will still love this game but I doubt anyone can go through hours and hours of gameplay just to collect objects. I would recommend a rental for some short burst of fun.

Death to the writers! Why must there be a filler when the manga version has advanced so much in term of storylines?
