1 Star Scatch my brand new PSP
I bought this item and the inside metal part of the case scratch the casing of my brand new PSP. Really frustrated with this cheap case.

Buy the official PSP case for 14.99 at target, looks nicer and not cheap.

5 Stars Perfect for your PSP
I bought two of these for my daughters because they carry their PSP’s everywhere. It can carry games/movies and keeps the PSP protected. For the price and quality this item is ideal for any PSP owner.

4 Stars Gets the job done
If you want an inexpensive case to hold your PSP system along with your games, this case will do trick.

5 Stars Great Case
This case kicks butt and it holds everything very nicely

Very nice material and I have dropped it a couple of times but it holds up good.

You can easily fit the psp, 2 games and a usb charger

5 Stars Valued
When I travel and have to pack everything in their own respectable cases, I’m just glad that my psp slim has a home, with pockets for mem cards and such. I wish now, that the extra life charger handles I have had a case too, I guess.

5 Stars Even more fun if you own a Playstation3
There is nothing particularly different about this particular PSP package other than it comes with a lot of extras and appears to be a great value if you like to play Madden football. The hardware is a standard PSP-2001 series, but in a blue color rather than the usual black. I own a Playstation3 and was fairly amazed at how well the PSP integrates with the Playstation3. The PSP does not need a Playstation3, but if you have both, you can see the Playstation 3 screen on the PSP. The sound streams as well as the images, and the PSP can control the Playstation 3 across the Internet. The PSP also connects directly to the Internet wirelessly. Therefore you can play online, get updates, and use the built-in browser. There is a special Internet radio application and Skype also built-in to the PSP. The sound is great through headphones, and audible through the built-in speakers. The screen is great and controls are intuitive.

4 Stars A soon to be classic
The package deal was by far the best. You get Madden 09, cant go wrong with that and the PSP for a decent price. The game itself is good for those that love the franchise option of building a dynasty and for those that just want to play football, it is classic Madden. First and 10, throw deep. The graphics detail and the trade mark control features are well worth the investment in this package, if you like this kind of package. I recommend this or the God of war package with the Black PSP.

4 Stars PSP Madden bundle not complete
The psp bundle of Madden brings some changes some are welcome and others I guess should have been said up front to avoid confusion. First welcome change is of course the lighter feeling compared to the first psp which makes it easier to carry. The most needed change in my eyes is the extra built in memory, to many times i’ve had problems with websites not able to display for lack of memory with graphics on webpages like amazon or hardocp.

The changes made to the headset port is a mixed bag, its now able to connect to a standard tv or hdtv with optional cables which are not included but unfortunely, if you own one of the first psp’s your headset will no longer work with this version as the port is physically unable to fit and a headset that works with this bundle is not included.

One other small problem is that there was no soft case included so if you value your investment in this system you have several choices, if your lucky you can still use the softcase that came with old psp but some may have bought the value psp that did not come bundled with one but fortunely many 3rd party supporters like logitech have new case covers that will protect your investment for small fee. Lucky I have the softcase but do plan on purchasing a after market case. Overall I feel that the new changes are for the best but some are needed to address so purchasers are aware that what comes in this bundle is not really a complete bundle.

4 Stars Limited Edition PSP with Madden 09
I have been playing Madden for a long time. When I got Madden 08 and played it for the entire football season I decided that I was not going to purchase 09 because I did not feel much would change. But when I saw the PSP Limited Edition with Madden 09 in metallic blue it was a must have for me because my that is my favorite color. I already owned an original PSP and have been very happy with it but I felt I could not pass up this deal that only cost me $199. I paid no shipping, no taxes, etc. Madden 09 has taken getting used to because there are actual noticeable changes between 08 and 09. I am still getting used to the PSP Slim which is lighter and seems a little more delicate than the sturdy black ones. But I take very good care of my assets so that will not be a problem. So in summary, I actually brought this limited edition for the color of the PSP and felt like I got a bonus with Madden 09 being included.

4 Stars Good deal.. nice game… interesting portable device
I got the Limited edition madden PSP as an intro to the system. Never played PSP but always was curious. Am going on a long trip this weekend so figured it would be a great time to get one. The game plays well, better then excepted and the PSP is cool. The blue is a fine color… The add ons didn;t blow me away… I would recomend this system to anyone who wants a PSP game system.

Devil May Cry 4

Posted on Sep 19, 2008 03:01:12 PM

Devil May Cry 4




Long ago the Dark Knight Sparda rebelled against the dark emperor and waged a one-man war to save humanity. Thousands of years later, a religious organization worships this renowned savior and has taken it upon themselves to rid the world of all evil. Residing in Fortuna, this organization is known as the “Order of the Sword,” and is made up of an elite group of “Holy Knights.” One day, a young knight named Nero witnesses Sparda’s legendary son Dante slaughter his fellow warriors. Has the renowned devil hunter turned his back on mankind? What does thie encounter mean for these two individuals? In Devil May Cry 4, players control the formidable Nero who comes to grips with his newly found power as his beliefs and allegiance are tested. Continuing the legacy of fast paced action synonymous with the series, Devil May Cry 4 pushes the envelope of excellence even further with the inclusion of a new combat system that incorporates Nero’s “Devil Bringer, a new feature that has players delivering overwhelming damage to enemies with non-stop combos, while gaining new power for Nero’s right arm. With the PlayStation 3 system’s advanced graphical capabilities, high definition visuals and intricate detail come to life as players explore new and exotic locales. Amazing visual effects and dynamic action coupled with a complex storyline, provides the very cool, slick and stylish attitude that only a Devil May Cry game can deliver. New active style change system for Dante allows him to switch styles and weapons on the fly, producing crazy combo possibilities ESRB Rate M for Mature

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars A stylish showcase of action and style
I know that title isn’t exactly awesome but it fits the Devil May Cry series perfectly. This is not deep storylines or emotional cutscenes or ultimately sympathetic characters; this series is about keeping enemies afloat with a wave of bullets before you bring down your sword right on their head. I really only finished the first one and haven’t bothered with the next 2 but since I have a shiny new Playstation 3, a whole new wave of games I have to try show up. So after the mandatory and hefty 5 GB install (more on that later), I was set for my adventure of sword-and-gunplay awesomeness with flaws that bugged me incessantly.

Story: Instead of playing as series regular Dante, you now control Nero, a member of the Order of the Sword, attending church with his friend/love interest Kyrie. Just then Dante shows up and proceeds to assassinate the leader before taking off. The Order tells Nero to go after Dante and make him pay for his crimes but there’s more to it than that and Nero and Dante try to get to the bottom of it all.

Graphics: I always found Capcom to be quite stellar when it comes to presentation and while the art style isn’t as beautiful as Folklore or as immensely detailed as Metal Gear Solid 4, this game is still quite the powerhouse when it comes down to the graphics. From its art design style with castles, ruins, picturesque landscapes to the fluidity of the action and cutscene direction, this is quite a great looking game on the PS3. Added bonus is that the mandatory install which takes a good 20 minutes drastically reduces load times with at best 2-3 seconds of a “now loading” screen. Sweet.

Sound/Music: The music has always been a mixed bag in terms of what it does and what it feels like the game should be doing. At times, the game takes on an operatic approach with organs, pianos and choirs in Latin but then when action hits, it brings out a cheesy metal song. Sure it fits what you’re doing but having sweeping music only to be replaced by music worthy of bad Slipknot and it’s just bizarre. Voice acting in Capcom games tend to be hit-or-miss as well, as if the whole game is one big, stylish and impressive B-movie with one-liners (unfunny ones at that) and a villain who stutters and it’s quite funny in a bad way.

Gameplay: The Devil May Cry series is all about the combos and the moves like God of War. From all the moves you can purchase to upgrades, your character will be flying up and down the screen as you bring the proverbial smackdown to your enemies. Gunplay and swordplay effortlessly shift back and forth and using the Devil Bringer, which basically acts like Scorpion’s “get over here!” from Mortal Kombat. Instead of going over to your enemy, you can grab them from afar and smack em around. Instead of Dante who received new weapons to shift back and forth from, Nero keeps his sword and guns but he just gets more stuff to do with them.

The problem is is that the moves and upgrades are rather hefty price-wise and you will frequently go through the process of “orb farming” where you replay a level to get better ranks and more Proud Souls to use to upgrade which can get very repetitive and the more Souls you get is depending on how good at combos you are. From Deadly to Sick Smokin’ Style, you have to be very adept at slinging together combos without getting hit so if you’re a bad player, you’re going to be pretty small on upgrades. Also at times, Capcom has gameplay ideas that just don’t work and for those wondering if the game is as famously difficult as the third can rest easy (though it’s still maddening sometimes), it does a couple things that irk me. Jumping puzzles are sometimes imprecise and with enemies respawning should you fall, it gets kind of boring and quite irritating. The other is that you’ll get a board game where you move a character across a board but considering how it’s played, it feels like a game stretcher to make the game seem longer than it is.

At a certain point in the game, we get to play as Dante and he’s basically the same though there’s some changes. Dante can now shift into different modes from Gunslinger which focuses on weapons and bullets whereas Trickster basically allows you to dodge enemies more efficiently and the new weaponry gets added upon completing certain missions. However, not to spoil but basically Dante is Nero’s levels backwards and you even fight the same bosses…3 times. It might be a next-gen title but it’s also burdened by gameplay choices.

I’d play the game since it’s one of the more well-known and popular PS3 games but I wouldn’t consider it my favorite and it’s more a game I like than absolutely love. I don’t mind playing through it and even wanted to get to the end but I didn’t feel it was good enough to purchase but that’s me.

5 Stars So much fun to kill demons in style
I love this game. So much fun to kill demons with that big sword…….

5 Stars This is how you hunt deamons… stylish way.
This game is so good, i just finished without turning off my PS3. It is hard to understand the negative reviews for this game. Devil May Cry is action packed, especially when you learn all the combos. The special hidden area are the good test for your combos. The game flows so smooth, i just forgot dinner and lunch.

This the best graphics that you find in a cross-platform game. It is slightly lower than MGS4 and Uncharted. Fantastic eye catching art style. Both heroes of the DMC4, play very distinctively. If you have played previous DMC, playing as Nero is such a refreshing experience. The Devil Bringer is a nice mix. It is not just a weapon, it solves boss battles with a different strategy. This is not a hack and slash button masher. If you want to play the game that way… you can set combo to automatic. But please dont do it. Learn the combos it is so much more satisfying and fun to play.

Compared to Zelda and RPG puzzles, I love puzzles like these. It is very similar to Uncharted/God of Ware in that manner. You will never get lost or have to look for online guides. The narration is so perfectly done with a frenetic pace, time will just fly by.

There are few things very old school like fixed camera, have to back track the same area and fight the same monsters. But you will be happy to do so as you need the extra souls for items purchase. One of the few game developers who have mastered the art of pacing.. the stage never over stays its welcome period. When ever you leave the area.. you always have a feeling you might have missed some thing. Finding all the hidden souls is a fun challenge by itself for the Mario star collectors.

Especially with the lower price tag.

3 Stars Improved but not much!
I am a huge fan of DMC series, this chapter showed a improvement in graphics, animation, difficulty (less than DMC3 that was too hard, this one is really fun to play even in the most difficult level) and sound quality, but unfortunatelly did not improve much on game play, combos are really fun with grat animations but lacks on defence, strategy zero, killing enemies depends on how quick you push buttons, even the counter move is useless and difficult to timing, things that put ninja gaiden sigma and heavenly sword on top of my list of action games for PS3.

5 Stars Great
Simply said Great game have replayed it several times. The graphics are great the music is great and I really cant think of a single negative thing about it.

Star Wars The Force Unleashed

Posted on Sep 18, 2008 11:34:52 PM

Star Wars The Force Unleashed




The Star Wars saga will continue in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, a videogame developed by LucasArts, which casts players as Darth Vader’s “Secret Apprentice” and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas, is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will assist the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi - and face decisions that could change the course of their destiny.

As its name implies, The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force. The PSP version will not only give you a solid story-line developed by LucasArts involving the Darth Vader’s secret apprentice, but you’ll experience fun mobile gameplay only the PSP can offer. With graphics comparable to PS2 you’ll be able to easily immerse yourself into the game and battle your way through enemies utilizing your Lightsaber attacks and Force powers. You can also try your Jedi skills against a friend in the PSP’s “Battle Mode.” Joining the Dark Side doesn’t seem like such a bad idea after all.

Game Features:

  • During the period between Episodes III and IV, players hunt Jedi in the role of Darth Vader’s Secret Apprentice.
  • Unleash and upgrade the Secret Apprentice’s four core Force powers - Force push, grip, repulse and lightning - throughout the course of the game, and combine them for ultra-destructive, never-before-seen combos.
  • Examples of unleashing the Force in ways never thought possible:
    • The Secret Apprentice won’t just Force push enemies into walls - he’ll Force push enemies through walls.
    • The Secret Apprentice won’t just Force grip foes to throw them aside - he’ll Force grip them in midair, zap them with lightning, then drop them to the ground to explode like a bomb.
  • In addition to new adversaries created just for the game, such as fugitive Jedi and Force-sensitive Felucians, players will also confront and associate with familiar faces from the Star Wars films, including Darth Vader.
  • Visit locations such as Episode III’s Wookiee homeworld Kashyyyk and the floral Felucia, the junk planet Raxus Prime, plus an Imperial TIE fighter construction facility.
  • The PSP game system’s “Battle Mode,” a one on one fighting arena similar to the classic game, Star Wars: Masters of Ter
