This new Ridge Racer game appears to be going futher towards it's arcade roots, instead of towards the semi-realistic gameplay style of the great Type 4. Here's hoping that the pretty visuals are meet with responsive controls, better collision physics and more race tracks (which apparently, from reading various import reviews, is most certainly the case).

And Wipeout Pure does indeed look good, mainly because of its new visual style directly inspired by Rez.

I like the idea of playing Ridge on the move. I think it makes it... more exciting, somehow.
Yeah, there's nothing like squinting over a four inch screen to get that extra thrill.

I thought the new PStwo's were 150. I haven't checked, but I'm pretty sure they are.

You know you could get two new GCs and Resident Evil for the price of the PSP. Or an Xbox or PS2 and two new games.

So I think I'll stick to my Game Boy Color untill some bigger games are announced (like Smash Bros. on DS or FFXIII for PSP).

I'm on my platinum GBA that I bought a few months before the SP decided to be announced. I don't really care though since I only have 3 games for it.

I can't play my GBC anymore, since the sea got into it and the battery connections went rusty. :sad: I used to really enjoy playing Pokemon with one hand, but alas, 'tis no more.

I know you're perverted, (that comic with the constipated girls was first class). I just don't want people to think that I'm getting hot over Pokemon on the Gameboy. That's a hardcore niche I want to distance myself from.

So if people think it's, say, Pokemon the anime you're getting hot over, you're okay with that?

Yeah. Even a different game on the GB. I mean, you haven't played Donkey Kong Country until you've cum on the screen. Man, those apes.

Airflight code? It's the phoenetic alphabet. Second the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot thing was in a GHZ chat and I had to explain it to half the people. You fool.

That's not true. Some people do like asses, though they are generally other asses. As for being done, it's not my fault you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.

Except for the obvious fact that I would rather not play Ridge Racer on a hand held.
I traditionally played my handheld systems more than anywhere on family car trips, and something always seemed wrong about playing a driving game while riding in a car.

Both systems lack a decent FPS.

(and no, the Metroid: Hunters demo that comes with the DS doesn't count.)

I'll stick to my GBA, which I've had since I bought it a mere few days after launch that many years ago, and still has a decent library of games.

Why would you want a FPS on a handheld.
