Earthworm Jim PSP is cancelled

Who here remembers Earthworm Jim on the SNES? It was truly a good game in its time, fun action adventure and neat animation graphics. I remember playing this game with my little brother, back in the days when SNES was kinda the best gaming system available or so I thought.

I have played countless games in the past, but only remember the titles of the ones I have really liked; Earthworm Jim was one of them. When I first heard this was coming to the PSP I was exited because I would have loved it to be on my PSP.

But what happened??? It got cancelled? I can hardly believe that Atari (a big game developer company) would be in financial trouble, thus the reason they have said to have this game currently on hold after it was 80 percent complete. I never played other Earthworm Jim titles but on the SNES version with only 2D graphics, and I was anxious to see this game in 3D graphic style. Hopefully in the end, it will be released, because 80 % of finished work and suddenly dumped is just a waste I think.

PSP 3000? Really?

PSP have evolved. It began as PSP 1000 when it first came out, then the slim 2000. Now it is only a matter of time when a PSP 3000 will arrive. Or so many people are already speculating. The buzz is getting bigger every day, but only Sony has the real answer. This rumor had started over an image found on the official Sony website containing the PSP 3000 logo on it. The image is now removed, and as to a release date, Sony has said nothing yet.

So, what is the good word of this new PSP 3000 model?

Well, it is said not to have much difference from the 2000 series, but it will have a microphone incorporated and looks like the home button will have the Playstation logo instead. Well, that is all what I have gathered so far from my search, but perhaps there is still more. I will keep this post updated.

PSP: Spectral Souls Review

Spectral Souls is another of many strategy role playing games for the PSP. This title got my interest, and wanted to see what it was about. The story takes place somewhere called Neverland (not Peter Pan related) where humans and demons collide. The demons govern the world, but humans fight to free themselves of the nasty demon overlords. That is where you/I come in as the game is viewed.

I have not finished playing this game, and doubt I will want to. See, there are just some things that bother me about the battle system. Not that it got complicated, but really too monotonous for me, and I know they could have done better in the graphic department. I am not so new to the RPG genre. I have gotten stuck on certain parts of the story before, but not this quickly in the game of Spectral Souls. Nevertheless I will try to give it a go once more, hoping that the story, and/or other elements of the game gets more interesting.

I am always interested in great strategy Role Playing games. Final Fantasy Tactics is at the top of my list when it comes to comparison. The only thing I can say is that I have only played a handful of these types of games. Any good recommendations on great Strategy RPG titles for the PSP are very much welcome. Please comment-reply. ^_^

PSP: Guitarway To Heaven 4 Amplified Review PSP Gameplay

Guitarway To Heaven 4 Amplified is Kinda like guitar hero homebrew style for the PSP, and you know it’s got great music on it. I love this game, really entertaining; I am not a pro as you can see on the first video, so I chose a simple easy song (Another one bites the dust from Queen).

The object of the game is really to keep up with rhythm and press the buttons accordingly to its perspective color and timing. The good thing is that we have both hands and you can use the directional pad to help you when you need to press more than one button at a time.

The list of songs is a big one; you will definitely find some tunes you like. “Metallica-fade to black” is one of my personal favorite. There is easy, medium, hard, extreme, and songs with various difficulty levels, but most are still hard for me. The way I see the game operates and the thing to remember is that you really have to play the same song over and over to become good at it. The graphics are awesome; I recommend this game to all music video game players. Rock on!!

Here is me playing Fade To Black from Metallica. Do not be alarm, almost at the end it seems that an earthquake had just hit, but it is actually me pressing all the buttons like crazy. It is really hard to keep up with that much speed so that was my best strategy lol!!. enjoy :D



Here is me playing Paramore's Crush crush crush. Yes, it might seem a simple and easy to do, but I just love this song. hehe!



Once again it is me playing Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name Of. This song is great, and excellent to be played on PSP Guitarway To Heaven. It is just a personal favorite.

Phantasy Star Portable For The PSP

As until a few days ago, I did not know anything about Phantasy Star Portable. I spend a lot of time online, but I only play mini games when on my computer. I am also kinda new to the multiplayer mode, meaning I don’t usually play with other people online. This game got my interest, and wanted to do a little bit of research on it.

It’s a Role Playing Game, developed by SEGA, originally for the Dreamcast System a few years ago. Since then, sequels, episodes titles have been created for different gaming systems.

Phantasy Star Portable will be exclusively for the PSP as I hear. This RPG is definitely one to check out, whenever Sony decides to release it for the U.S. It will be release by the end of this month (July 2008) in Japan, but Demos of Phantasy Star Portable could be accessed to anyone outside Japan. The following video trailer is amazing, and the graphics are top notch. I just hope it won’t be long till the U.S. release.
