My PSP is the best thing ever. I know that gives you an orgasm Ward.

Pretty much 100% of my former TV time is now spent online.
I play games on the way to work, on breaks, on the way from work, and when I'm doing other stuff.

Handhwlds are amazing, and there are so many great new games on the DS that i'm finding it very hard to keep up

I fucking love my PSP.

The RDM is going to spend a chunk of his wedding gift money on a DS.

If that's not love, he doesn't know what is.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 4:55 pm

I'm bored.

Recommend me some GBA games, plz.
Don't bother with Pokemon, or the FF Remakes, since I already have them.

Oh, and I can't run Riviera.

Meh.

The RDM doesn't have time for console games now that he's practically married.

What does the RDM's wife have to say about that?

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 5:22 pm

She got a Cappucinno machine for the shower so she doesn't get a say.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 5:29 pm

For the shower? WTF? That's extravagant and way messed up. You can milk it for way more than a DS.

The Cappucinno machine cost like half as much as a DS. It doesn't make very good cappuccino, from what the RDM can gather, but can brew up some good espresso.

Not that the RDM would ever consume such beverages.

He might actually be allergic to coffee.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 5:36 pm

It doesn't matter the cost. It's the statement that it makes: "I require so much luxury that I can't be assed to get out of the shower to make myself a cappucinno."

Bridal shower, Kneepads.

Oops......rofl. Nevermind

The RDM thinks his brain just died a little.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 5:46 pm

Well, I'm sure that some people have setups like that, and yeah, I should have made the connection with wedding and shower, but I.....

What would be the point of that!?

Your coffee would get all wet.

It's just not feasable(ible?).

Unless...

Nope. Still not.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 5:54 pm

I don't know. you can just hold your hand out of the shower and poke your head out when you want a sip?

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 6:13 pm

You'd get water all over the floor.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 6:14 pm

Obviously you have the self-drying floor installed too!

Only 465,000 easy payments of $19.95.

Me no do handhelds. They make me travel sick if I'm on the move for some reason, and if I'm at home, I prefer to play on a big screen, my eyes ain't all that.

But theres plenty of good shit on the DS and PSP

Castlevania double pack. 2 great games in one, quite hard to find these days.

And on the topic of handheld consoles, the only consoles I own are handheld (PSP and DS) and I love them very much

My own TV is too shit to play any proper consoles on it tbh.

HKK · Post by **HKK** » Fri Aug 03, 2007 10:01 pm

Mega Man Z2. Best action platformer ever.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Fri Aug 03, 2007 11:13 pm

Scrap my previous comment.
The screen is too small, so all the games are shit!

Now you're starting to make sense.

Ninja Five-O is actually pretty entertaining: 2D Sidescroll platformer, You're a ninja, save people, cut other people in two... gets frustrating at times though, especially if you try getting through a level without getting hit.

Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars (I didn't even know it was on the GBA till recently O.o) actually plays pretty decently. No FMVs but you'll get all that classic point & click action and witty text that the original PC version churned out.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Aug 05, 2007 10:47 pm

Mario Tennis on the GBA is really fun.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 2:33 pm

Broken Sword royally fucked me off, so I'm gonna have to decline that one.
The rest I'll look into, when I'm not in my freakin' parent's house with crappy PC. I forgot to bring any games consoles with me
