So, what games will be able to pull you away from your PSP?

[StealthySeal]

the end of march/begining of april brings on TONS of new release big budget games. Which, if any, will be able to pry you off your new PSP within the first weeks of you owning it?

For me I think god of war might give it some compitition, splinter cell chaos thoery will take up some of my time on xbox live. Donkey Kong Jungle beat should be pretty entertaining while waiting for the PSP. Warioware twisted will prob be the last nintendo handheld game i play for a long while too!

[craven_fiend]

halo 2, wrestlmania 21, splinter cell, doom 3....just to name a few xbox ones.

I am already addicted to Tekken 5... and i've had it over a moth already. Looking forward to alot of the DS titles comming out in the futer. My PSP is going to be in a tug of war over me with my DS.

[JebusMcLucifer]

SC: CT, Doom 3, WM 21

[rodeojones903]

[fieldkillah]

If I havent finished RE4 by then, that will pull me away for a bit, but not very much.

[coopermor]

See if Jessica Alba can get me away from my PSP (well maybe she can).

[Socheata]

I have a backlog of games that I still need to play/finish. I'm sure a few of those games will pull me away from my (soon-to-be) PSP. Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, Resident Evil 2, The Simpsons: Hit & Run, Tekken 5...

[mrbungler]

Zenosaga II, Donkey Konga Jungle Beat, Warioware Touched!

[Chris In Cali]

WM21, Yoshi's Touch & Go?, umm... not much really.

[Logical Dolphin]

Resident Evil 4, GT4, Silent Hill 4

[ransom456]

I have pre-ordered Digital Devil Saga. Seriously tempted by SC:Chaos Theory, too. Possibly Jade Empire, TimeSplitters 3, and NARC.

Damn, it's like the holiday season hasn't ended.

[pimpinc333]

Nothing will take me away from my PSP it will folow me wherever I may go. lol

No but maybe Doom 3, SC:CT, R6:Lockdown, and maybe SPikeout if its any good.

[Defender]

GT on the PSP seems like a winner to me.

[epobirs]

It would have to be something on the GameBoy or DS. Until I move into my own place again I don't have enough space to set up any of my consoles.

[notoriousxbox]

Doom 3 and then Jade Empire

[Zoglog]

Well the way I look at it, the PSP will serve a different purpose for me, It'll give me something fun to do at lunch break at work or avoiding traffic when going homoe. Also it'll be great for plane trips.

[CaptDS9E]

Wrestlemania XXI and R6: Lockdown for xbox, however the PSP will be used more on the go and during lunch breaks :wink:

God of War

[rodeojones903]

Ohh man I almost forgot about God of War. That game is going to rock.

[Socheata]

God of War received a 10 and a 10 from GameInformer. :shock:

I heard about that. I want the issue to come. I want to read it. The only thing that makes me mad about the game is I heard there's some kind of sex mini-game. I don't know if it's actually in the game, but I heard it was. (Rumor) I hope it isn't.

[rodeojones903]

David Jeffe posts alot on IGN and he confirmed there is a sex mini game with female nudity.

I just looked it up and saw it. :/

[rodeojones903]

I have no problem with it, as long as its done tastefully. Games are a work of art. Painters use nudity and sex constantly in their work.

I guess I just don't want that in a video game. I suppose you're right though, as long as it's done right.

[ScaryGuy]

well yesterday i picked up NFSR *Drools* waaaay better than i thought it would be

[Trakan]

rodeo, I got the GI today. Want to hear a summary of the review?

[rodeojones903]

Sure man :D

[Defender]

Tasteful pr0n...that's just SICK!

[Trakan]

Sorry it took a bit, I forgot all about it. :lol:

"Never before has a game so masterfully conveyed raw, visceral rage."

Rational thought supposedly separates humans from animals. But it is possible for someone to use the gift of reason to make choices that will plunge a mind into madness, transforming a human into a vengeful, primal beast. Regardless of the sins and sorrows of his past, this is the kind of man Kratos has become, and it is by capturing his torment that God of War has earned a place as one of the definig titles of this console generation.

Featuring the most graceful combat system of any action game to date, God of War offers endless opportunities for players to unleash their inner demons through visually stunning and morally disturbing displays of power. Slaughter fleeing Athenians for a health boostl. Break people's spines by folding them in half - backwards. Revel in the bloodbath as the Blades of Chaos (permanently grafted to Kratos' pale skin) glide effortlessly through legions of mythological terros like Sirens, gogons, and hulking armored Minotaurs.

Kratos begins the game with most of these skills, yet even with this basic moveset, he is instantly the most captivating and bad-ass character in gaming. His prowess only improves as you progress through the amazing cinematic adventure. By gathering orbs from fallen foes, Kratos can upgrade his weapons and magic (in the style of Onimusha), opening up entirely new moves, which in turn frees up even more ruthless combo possibilities. When you add in contextual finishing strikes (usually consisting of timed button presses), the action strings together so flawlessly and provocatively that there wasn't a single second that I feldt that I, personally, couldn't beat the hades out of the gods myself.

On a technical level, God of War is equally omnipotent: It maintains a silky smooth framerate, supports 16:9 widescreen and progressive scan, and only once in the whole 12 hours of gameplay did I notice anything approaching camera problems The only ocmplaint I can muster against this otherwise almighty offering is that the controls during the Prince of Persia - insired platforming sections could be tightened up a bit. While these nuts and bolts add to the overall polish, they mainly serve to augment what is essentially the most addictive and engaging third-person action game I haver ever played. It is entertainment incarnate.

Empowered by the gods and fueled by revenge, Kratos tries to bury his inner demons under the corpses of soldiers and in the willing arms of women. His rampage is terrifying, but is impossible to put down. While playing God of War, I honestly found it difficult to resist the urge to simply genuflect and be humbled to be in the presence of such digital dvinity, this god among games.

That was the whole review.

Second Opinion:

Through relentless, pulse-pounding excitement, God of War achieves gaming nirvana and earns the right to be worshiped as the pinnacle of barbaric action. Lift a soldier high into the air and tear his body in two. Climb onto the back of a giants and run your smoldering steel through his skull. Not even a god can understand your unconqerable rage. Unleashing Kratos' fury is one of the greatest pleasures that I've had in gaming. He makes Darth Vader seem about as violent as a Care Bear. The finess of play, sheer brutality of the conbos that you can perform, and ingenious finishing movies had my mouth watering from start to finish. When you're not soaking the land with blood, you are either marveling at its gorgeous vistas or feeling from the shocking events that shape Kratos' life. With a thundering resonance, God of War sends a shockwave through the action genre and launches gaming as a whole to new heights.

Probably Quake 3 mainly since we network that at work hehe.
