Heh, that was cool. I was expecting a DeLorean....
Any games to recommend? I have GTA:Chinatown wars, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (or whatever the hell it's called) and the Professor Layton games. |

I just finished SHadow Complex with 97% of the items. The other 3% were in a part of the map I couldn't get to without triggering the end game. Really really annoying.

I just got the second safehouse in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, after buying it a day or two ago. It's really helping with my GTA4 withdrawal symptoms, and it's shown me that 4 has been my "gateway game", as until then I hated all other GTAs.
Which is good, because I have 3/Vice City/San Andreas/Liberty City Stories to work through, saving me from buying another 360 (for now...). My PSP is really getting a lot of use as of late. I seem to go through phases of playing my DS or my PSP. That said, my GameBoy is getting a lot of time with Pokemon Ruby when I'm on the bus. It takes nearly an hour to get to the Downtown area from the suburbs where I live, so I'm handheld gaming a lot as I sometimes go there and back twice a day. |

San Andreas is great, it has lots of awesome things to see and do and in no way takes itself seriously. Vice city stories has the best soundtrack out of all the GTA games. Professor Layton is a damn fine game, lovely backgrounds, lots of things to find (hint coins) lots of puzzles (obviously) some of which are genuienly clever and/or difficult. I'm really enjoying it a lot more then I thought. Scribblenauts is still damn good as well, hough my imagination sucks as I tend to use a lot of the same items, especially the jetpack...and the grappling hook. Think I'll bust through the first Layton game, then play GTA, then the second Layton game. It's nice to get some use out of my DS again, I originally only bought it for pokemon and thats really all I owned until FF3/4. It was nice how easy it was to get downloaded games to work as well. My PSP isn't getting used as much the past 2 or 3 weeks purely because the custom firmware I'm on has been superceded by official firmware and the guy who makes new custom firmware has stopped doing it for now, I could upgrade to a new one in order to play things like Disgaea 2/Gran Turismo etc, but I would lose the functionality of some of my emulators....I'll hold out for now whilst my DS is getting so much use. I still use my PSP to listen to music and watch TV series to and from work. |

Does anyone know how to save in the newest Prince Of Persia?
Do you use save points or am I experiencing a glitch? The option's all faded. |

I'm getting re-addicted to Fable 2 (even though I haven't finished my mission of getting all of the achievements on Fallout 3 yet). I like my character's face now that I've made her very corrupt. It makes me laugh.

I don't like being a Vanguard in mass Effect. I should have just stuck with being a Soldier and played through again with my already made character...oh well.

I'm wondering if I should import Demons Souls from America; the only thing stopping me is that I'd probably prefer to play the EU one on Eu servers when it's out rather than be stuck on the American ones...

So I got hold of GT PSP. The cars are pretty and it is definetely a good GT experience but it really really feels so empty without the career mode. And the odd choice of how only some cars are aavilable on some days sucks. I think I'll give Arctic Edge a look next.
