Should I buy a PSP?

Yeah stay away from VT on PSP Pep. It's great to play, but the loading is atrocious, and from what i remember, the game seems to pause every so often for a fraction of a second, which was as annoying as buggery! If you wanna get a good game, i highly recommend either Lumines for the best puzzle game ever, or Gradius Collection for that old-school, hard as nails shooter.

I'll lend you VT if you want to give it a try first Pep.

If it's 2 stroke then it's firing twice as often as a 4 stroke. You guys suck at analogies.

Anyway, I just bought another one! (and promptly sent it overseas to my brother)

lol twit, i guess our point is the psp is a crippled ps2, because of the reduced clockspeeds.

Well the PSP does use a lot of fuel

Then you may as well call the DS a dribbling quadriplegic GameCube and throw in rotary engines for no good reason. Who cares? It’s still an impressive thing (even though DS is better).

Now who's making the sucky car analogies? DS has the best battery life and a rotary engines have shitty fuel economy.

If anything a DS would be a soft-4wd. Huge body, tiny engine

I wanna get Worms and Virtua Tennis, but I haven't seen either of 'em in any of my local shops. So I thought I'd order 'em online, but TopShop doesn't have Worms.

Can anyone recommend an alternative, reputable Aussie online vendor?

These days DVD Crave and True Gamer are about the only place I buy games. I've never had a problem with either.
