• Sega: Gearbox developed Aliens: Colonial Marines, other studios just "helped"

• monkeylite 13/02/2013

  Oursourced or not, it is Gearbox's name on the box, so they should be held accountable.
  
  I suspect the project suffered development hell at Gearbox, and with most of budget gone, they quickly threw it aside to another cheaper dev to fix whatever mess they created in the first place.
  
  I really feel for Timegate for being dragged into this. Reply +14

  Also loved FF XII.
  
  Hated FF X, so maybe this game isn't for me. Will still pick it up and play it one day, but right now I've other priorities. Reply +1

• Navy using PSPs to study at sea

• monkeylite 30/11/2009

  I understand his point of view. Living quarters in ships are cramped and a electronic device does take up much less space and weight than books. A notebook would have been better, but imagine the fallout if they started issuing £2000 Toughbooks to Navy students. A PSP is cheaper, and it has the benefit of being a music, video, Skype, interweb and games machine. On a nuclear powered sub, you won't have to worry about plugging it into the wall socket all the time.
  
  Personally I would have gotten them those Sony Reader instead. Tough and the battery last several thousand pages. Reply +2

• PS3 tops weekly Japanese hardware sales

• monkeylite 13/11/2009

  There is nothing wrong to be unimpressed with a product, at long as you make a decision on whether the product suits your lifestyle.
  
  I do like them Walkmans as well as Sansas (by Sandisk), as they excel in the one thing that matters most - the audio quality. Reply +3

  "The Japanese company’s share of portable music players sold climbed to 43 percent in the week ended Aug. 30, exceeding Apple’s 42.1 percent
  
  Come on, this doesn't happen in any other country but Japan."
  
  Didn't you think that for once that in Japan they have access to way cooler portable music players than we do over here (and other countries) and thus have more choice than we do? Check out the Sony A840 for example - just barely thicker than the Nano but has a OLED screen, 64GB capacity and TV-out. Kenwood and Panasonic also make very good quality audio players over there but don't sell them here. Reply +11

• Fils-Aime questions PSPgo "benefit"

• monkeylite 13/10/2009

  The RAM upgrade is also used to speed up loading, but games are still written to use the original RAM allocation (16MB) so all PSP games are compatible across all models. Unlike new DSi exclusive downloads which works only on the DSi.
  
  PSP-2000 also received a RAM upgrade (32MB). Reply +1

• monkeylite 13/10/2009

  "- Price (compared to PS3 Slim) "
  
  Funny, Amazon lists the DSi as £135 while the Wii sells for only £5 more. Like the PSPgo, the price of Nintendo's handheld and console is closer than you think.

  And of course the DSi is selling better. It has been out longer. And to play DSi games, you MUST buy a DSi. DSL users like me are locked out, and will eventually have to buy a DSi if I want to play DSi games. To play PSP/PS1/PSP Mini games, you can buy either PSP-3000 or PSPgo. The PSPgo isn't a replacement, it is a choice. Reply +1

  Right back at him regarding the DSi. Reply +5
