It is a very good game, I don't think its as good as the 1st Halo though(the only difference to the pc version is the polish)

Just played gta for the Psp-brilliant!!! This is much better than I had expected, wish they had stuff like this when i was a boy. Has anyone downloaded any stuff for their psp yet? I think you need a special lead ?
Pro Evo 5 (ps2) Amazing game, much better than 4 and no name changing required on it strangely?
True crime (n.y. city) lol good game too altho the controls can get on yer ti.tz at times especially when you need to act sharp-the language is wild too tut tut.

Resident evil 4 still THE BEST!

I borrowed Battlefront2 from a friend, it's good and the Xbox Live play is entertaining but I doubt I'll buy it, since buying PGR2 on July I play it continuously and think it's deffo one of the best games I've played :cool:

Have to agree about GTA for PSP - it's Ace!

It had me in stiches last night - you go to a mission and when you arrive the guy is on the phone to his mum, telling her he loves her etc....... while he's getting a blow job off a hoar!

To explain himself he says he's 'multi tasking'!!!! Classic...

I've got Pro Evo 5 for the PSP - thank god you can download your team saves from the PS2 to the PSP - it makes for a far better experience! You do need a lead to plug your PSP into your PS2 - I got one from Asda of all places for £7! Bargain!

However, it's one awkward fecker to control. The D-pad is virtually useless as it's that low into the console that you can't run diagonally which leaves the thumbstick for direction - still getting used to it!!  :veryangry

I've just started Resi 4 on PS2 - it's quality so far, however when you have it jacked into a surround system it's sh!t your pants time!  :laugh:

I had to cancel the XFX Pablo as they are almost impossible to get hold of.

Instead I got myself an 1800XT.  :cool:

Its the second best, as the XFX 7800GTX 512 XXX that I tried to buy is the best, but it was a limited edition and very difficult to get hold off.

The 1800XT is a fabulous card, however, and I'm typing this on my new system that I put together two weeks ago. It has an A64 X2 4400+ dual core processor, an Epox EP-9NPA+ Ultra motherboard, 2 gig of dual channel ram and the 1800XT.

I've been playing a lot of Call of Duty 2 at max settings, 1600x1200 resolution (almost as high as CoD2 on the Xbox 360 on a large high definition tv) and its one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. Aside from the graphics it has the most intense gameplay I've had for years: the battle of Stalingrad and the Battle of El Alamain are simply incredible!

Yes, awesome for about 3 weeks!  :D

Computer technology is advancing so fast at the moment that what was hot yesterday is so so tomorrow.

For example, my graphics card is currently the second best graphics card money can buy at the moment (for home use). It was released in mid November. ATI, who designed it, will release another card in late January which will be about 25%-35% faster (at least) than my card.

Its the equivalent of a new Ferrari or Porsche being released very four months which is 30% or 40% better than the previous car.

Home computers and laptops are now very cheap (compared to a few years ago) but if you want a powerful gaming machine, you still have to splash the cash.

You won't be able to get my machine in a store or from someone like Dell: you either have to have them custom built or build one yourself (like I did).
