Oh, I didn't evne know about that. I got the original PSP, but there werent very many games for it. I loved FF Dissidia though

Yea. Sony made great hardware for their handhelds, but the software/game side is definitely lacking. It's no wonder Nintendo's kicking the crap out of them in that area.

Sp3000

The best way to get stars is, after someone says "Don't star this" (and nobody stars due to the obvious attempt), is to poke humour at the fact by mentioning that they didn't get stars, although because I'm dissecting what I'm writing right now, this probably won't get stars anyway but the next post to dissect this further probably will
