GT PSP DLC Is Just Not There Despite What Some Sites Say

 I step aside from my usual posts for something that has been driving me crazy ever since I first heard of "Connectivity" between the PSP and the PS2. I will admit it took me longer than I hoped and more downloads that I like to admit before I could out the truth. 

That there are only 8 PS2 / PSP games with this feature and none of them include GT on ANYTHING!!! 

I say ANYTHING because it was doing research for my post that I discovered possible PS3 connectivity with GT5. Let me set the record straight no connectivity, no GT PSP DLC period. I checked both GT5 XL Edition and GT Prologue. Both are excellent racing games but no connectivity and especially not with the PSP. Despite what some might say, it's in the game menus, often hidden, but if it is there it's very clear. 

So please do not insist something is there unless you have rock solid proof like a screenshot.

No Nonsense Review: Neopets PetPet Adventures The Land of Wishing PSP

This one requires a gameplay video

It's a very unusual RPG although can be fun, it can also be tedious at times.

Overall score 6/10

 

No Nonsense Review: Petz Hamsterz Bunch PSP

I guess it's a ok Petz game, if your in to such a thing. But my real problem was that I was unsure what to do. The game gives you zero clues and what little I played it, as I really wasn't into the game. I could not figure out what to do until I check out a YouTube playthrough video.

In short if your really into these kind of games get it, not avoid. 

 

Super Mario 64 Ported to Vita, PSP, PS2, PS3 and PS4!

Yes, you read right... Super Mario 64 has been ported to the Vita, PSP, PS2, PS3 and PS4 (not to be confused with emulated)! You will need to build your own copy of the game using your own legitimately obtained N64 Rom.Super Mario 64 is arguably one of the greatest video games of all time, and certainly one of the most significant releases of it's time. Personally, I remember having my parents drop me off at Toys 'R' Us for hours at a time, just so that I could sample a little of this incredible 3D platformer on the demo-kiosk before it was officially released to the public. I will never forget when Babbage's called me three days prior to the release of the Nintendo 64, and said I could come pick up my console and copy of Super Mario 64 that day. I spent countless hours mastering the controls, obtaining all 120 stars, and just enjoying the beautifully created worlds.

Fast forward 24 years later, and the game is still getting lots of attention; both from Nintendo with the rumored release of Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo Switch (which I will definitely be purchasing day one, and seeing if I can jump to top of the castle with 0 stars), and also from the underground scene communities. As many of you probably already know, developers have been hard at work reverse engineering the game to create a de-complied source code, which led to the recent release of the PC port of Super Mario 64. And now thanks to the advancements of the various PlayStation scenes, we now have a ports playable on PS Vita, PS TV, PSP, PS2, PS3 and PS4.

You might ask yourself, "Why would I care about a port of a game I can already play through an emulator?" Well, for starters, being a port there is a much more room for upgrades and modifications. For example, there has already been a release of Super Luigi 64 to the Vita, which replaces Mario with a developer created Luigi model as well as changes the text in various scenes, so you can now enjoy the whole game as the other brother. And this is just the beginning... who knows what else we will see in the future.

As for other ports coming soon, we will have to wait and see what time brings us. Now there is a port playable on every PlayStation console with the exception of the PS1. There is just no telling where this game will pop up next. We have already seen the game popping up on MS-DOS, Android, Dreamcast and even Xbox.

No Nonsense Review: Warriors Orochi PSP

Ever come across a game that is both good and bad at the exact same time? Warriors Ocochi is it. Yes the game does have problems bad acting, bad script, repetitive everything. But it's also fun, and none of the battles seem overwhelming. 

Overall score 6/ 10
