So I was inspired today by AndrewGaspar's topic about game recommendations for his planned PSP Go purchase to go find out what prices are like for PSP games and I found some crazy stuff. Some PSP games go for over 70 bucks new. What the fuck is with that? Anyway, I found a bunch of great deals and bargains that you should definitely pay attention to if you're interested. Boom: 
 
Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow 10 DOLLARS. Free shipping. One of the best games on system, arguably one of the two best shooters on the system, that's insane. Gotta love Newegg. 
 
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite for 28 bones, free shipping once again. This is pretty new and fairly high-profile release, and it arguably has enough content to easily justify paying 40 for interested parties. A 12 dollar discount is nothing to laugh at. Edit: nevermind. Apparently it always retailed at $30? Fucking weird.
 
God of War: Chains of Olympus for $6.50. Of course, it has 8 dollar shipping. That still comes out to $14.50 if you don't get charged sales tax online (I don't) which is an awesome deal, especially for something like God of War. 
 
Resistance Retribution for $29.75 with $3.95 shipping.  Another one of the best shooters on the system (Sony Bend knows how to make em), although this isn't really a drastic discount at all. Still a pretty good deal, but not the best on the list. 
 
Rock Band: Unplugged for 20 DOLLARS. This is probably the most insane one you'll find. The game is barely over 2 months old and it's half-off. Which isn't a great thing for EA I guess but who cares, it's awesome for the consumers. Jump on this. 
 
Killzone: Liberation for 10 bucks. This is a pretty old game by now, and it's downloadable on the PSN Store (which I would do just for convenience's sake), but it's still worth it for anyone who doesn't have it already. 
 
WipEout Pulse for 14 dollars, plus 4 dollars shipping. The game is normally 30, and it's one of the best racers out there, definitely something to consider for any racing fans. 
 
PaRappa The Rapper for 10 bucks, plus 4 for shipping. This game is old but great, and everyone should give it a chance, especially at this price. Look up some YouTube videos of it, it's impossible to describe. 
 
I left a few more low-profile/iffy ones off the list, you can find them yourself if you look through Newegg and Amazon (and CheapAssGamer). Hope everyone's having a good weekend.

Short blog. Just letting anyone interested know that I'll be gone for a week (might still post a bit though) as I'll be on vacation visiting family in Kansas City, Missouri. Plane leaves at 11 or so. I've got enough media to last me for roughly 30 hours straight in one charge if necessary, and enough RPGs on my PSP to take up well over a month's worth of free time. I'll try to come back alive. I'm bringing some hayseed as a peace offering. 
 
Adios.

This is a blog where I bitch incessantly. I don't actually expect any of you to read it past this paragraph, I just feel like griping. I actually love playing 1943 and will continue to play it, but it has a lot of issues that I feel like writing down in list form. Enjoy (don't).

No, not at all. I do my mobile gaming with my PSP.

I have a semi-enforced policy that I will eventually buy or at least play a lot of most* of the games that I deride or publicly show contempt for. Final Fantasy 7 is not an exception to this rule, so I put down the $10 and downloaded it when it came on to the store last night. I've put roughly ~2 hours into it now, and I have to say, I'm enjoying it.
