iPhone: the mobile gaming sensation... not so hot.

Posted 16th February 2009 at 06:12 AM by Pegasus
Frankly, I've been quite skeptical of all those people who proclaim the iphone to be an "awesome" mobile platform. As it is, I can't even see it really competing with the likes of the PSP and DS. So, I finally was able to get my hands on an iPhone at an Apple store the other day, and, I must say, I was quite underwhelmed. This is what all the hoopla is all about? No, thanks.

Sure, the presentation is nice for the most part, but the controls for any of the games feel completely...

To sell or not to sell...

Posted 14th September 2008 at 07:46 AM by Pegasus
I've actually been considering selling my Wii. No, I have no problem with it. In fact, I may like it too much.

There's just always that temptation to buy more games for it, some of which I've hardly touched or stopped playing midway - always distracted by that new game. Especially right now when I'm going to have to be careful with my money for the next couple of months, it's come to show that I may be spending too much money on this little white box. So I'm debating whether the best...

Going old-school!

Just got an original NES today in the mail. Tested the unit and all the games that came with it, and it works beautifully! The system is not for me actually, but for a friend of mine. She has a definite interest in games but it's not as great as say mine or all you people's who hang out at this forum. I got to talk to her about games for a bit, and that's when she told me that she really would like one of the original NESs - she's not that into newer consoles - but hasn't gotten around to getting...

That's not my style, at all. I've simply gotten a lot of enjoyment out of Nintendo's consoles. A little love for the things one likes is not a bad thing in any way, shape, or form.

You know, I always have to shake my head at those people that keep complaining about that is not in this and this is not in that. You know what? You could just have fun playing your games rather than *****ing and moaning all the time about petty issues. If you dislike a certain platform so much why don't you just sell it? Problem solved... one would think.

None of the current consoles are perfect (and never will be), and if anyone thinks otherwise he or she is simply being naive....
