No Nonsense Review: Michael Jackson The Exerience PSP



Is truly a different sort of game, when I picked up a copy I was totally unsure what kind of game I was getting. One I will say it totally different, think DDR where you press buttons and try to keep up of what is happening on screen. But only to Michael Jackson songs. I think it's good enough for a couple of plays but beyond that, it really depends if you like that kind of game...or not.

No Nonsense Review: Rage Racer PS1

This is without a doubt one of the finest racing games ever made. If you're into tight controls like me, or even into drift racing you have that option. The same with customizing the cars, hell if you want to make it purple and black you really that that option.

But I think one of the best options is one some might find tedious. Winning money to buy new cars, all the cars are fantastic some are the best I ever seen or controlled in any racing game period.
Why couldn't even NAMCO learned from this fantastic game, by producing a lot of sub par racing games after this is totally beyond me.

No Nonsense Review: Tail Concerto PS1

I been wanting this game for sometime, but now to discover Tail Concerto is priced between $81 and $110 this one game is more a download than anything else.

Why do I say this Tail Concerto is one of the most utterly delightful game I ever played. Oh sure gameplay is simple and some might breeze through. But they be missing a unique story and very unique gameplay. You against the Black Cat Gang, I really felt like a kid as I played this.

It is really worth a play at least 1 time, to see if you like it. I would guess that you would. Thumbs Up

PSP Modding Weird Facts

Recently I been talking to other modders who know more than me and I found out a couple of facts.


If you use the Micro SD card to Memory Stick adapter it seems there really is no limit. But understand like any older CPU the bigger the folder the long it takes. I use 16 GB Micro SD cards in such an adapter and I get roughly 29 GB of usable space. It's been tested all the way up to 2 64 GB Micro SD cards and naturally you don't get exactly 128 GB after formatting. But you do get over 100 GB of space.


Another fact I have a couple of games I downloaded legally from the Playstation Store and I thought I see if they would play on a Modded PSP. As it turns out no they won't. Not even if you place the LICENSE folder in the PSP folder.

Cave Story PSP version

Cave Story is a very unusual game starting out it's life as a 2D freeware game before winding up as a 3D game on the 3DS. You might of even seen the game on Nintendo's eShop and had no idea there was a PSP version. I just want to make it very clear what's on the PSP is an adaptation of the 2D version and not the 3D one.

I really could get in to plot and storyline but that isn't my way. But if your curious check out the article on Wikipedia

Now with that out of the way, lets get into the game itself. For that we turn to YouTube.

This is of the 2D version




Yes I am aware it's also a review of the game, but your also getting a fair review as I have not played the game.

For the record the 3D version



I had to post that so you could see the difference

Now if you like what you see head on over to the Official Site and get the download link. As for the 3D version you can get it from Nintendo's Eshop for $9.95 or a physical copy around $40. I am not sure what the 2D version cost from Nintendo.

No Nonsense Review: Moto GP



In my effort to find the perfect PSP racing game. I had to go through a lot of crap, and Moto GP is a huge pile. Motorcycles at the start of the game suck. In fact, I had to use a save cheat just to find a motorcycle that matched my skill level.

Total Crapfest

No Nonsense Review: Burnout Dominator and Legends PSP

Since there is almost no difference between Dominator and Legends the same could be said about both games.

I have been a big fan of racing games ever since the days of the original PlayStation. Ever since I first bought my PSP back in 2012, I have checked out more than my share...but still couldn't find one. Until the other day, I was down at a local classic game shop and saw Burnout Legends.

Which turned out to be an incredible game, with intense action. My first experience with the highly praised Burnout series. I can see why that is, graphics are gorgeous. The best I ever have seen on the PSP. Zero with slow down, despite all that, is happening on the screen. Controls are spot on, although a bit of a learning curve. Namely driving through traffic at high speed. Although load times are about average, once a track loads that is it. Music and sound effects are great.



If you love racing games as much as I do, pick up Burnout Legends.
