Man, I need to get GTA: Liberty City Stories before I get Socom. I loved the first PS1 release (cheated my way through the rental )

I got it yesterday. Played for 2+ hours. ONLINE ONLY I played.

Here's my review:

If you think the game sucks without the other analog stick, you are fcuking correct. Does the experience suck without it? NO. It's still very playable and fun. Actually, I enjoy playing this version on the PSP than the PS2 since the TV monitor fucking sucks ass. On the PSP screen, things are just better (aside from the occassional blurring). The voice headset is awesome, you can hear everyone crystal clear. Lag is virtual non-existant. Gameplay rocks. Graphics are legit..not bad at all and best thing is 16 player online fragging. NO LAG


To buy or not to buy? IF you own not too many games for the PSP, pick this one up. Worth the $39.99. Pick up the headset for $19.99 too.

I'm waiting for Sony to implement voice over ip so we can use the psp to chat with anyone around the world real time.

...wait, so when you say "online" do you mean playing random people around the world/country, or do you mean the buddies in the room?

ONLINE = INFRASTRUCTURE = Playing with the rest of the world!

Yes, it's fun. Graphics are not bad..I dunno what the hell people are complaining about. BUT Sony really stinks when they designed the PSP. They left out the RIGHT ANALOG STICK. Come the fuck on, there's enough space for that nub. I'm very sure the V.2 of the PSP will include the extra nub stick AND possibly better expansion for Memory and peripherals.

Just get the game and you won't be disappointed.

Regarding the missing analog stick. You know, perhaps sony is kinda stupid sometimes...like I said in the previous message...I think the reason why they delayed GT4 for PSP was because how the heck you going to get the controls right when you are missing another analog stick...the buttons aren't analog like the PS2's...

I'm sure they are delaying it until the version 2 psp comes out. fuckers. At least enable the next firmware to include voice over IP communications. That'll rock. Damn japs

Well, thing is, I hate that the black one gets all smudgy when u use it. Supposedly, there will be other colors coming out as well. I just like it cuz no one else will have it here.
