Many years back my brother and I wanted a Playstation oh so badly and our mom being the champ she is got one for us in spite of money being tight, this was a couple of years after the system released and a lot of my friends already had one. It was awesome having one to call my own, I remember we stayed up the entire winter break beating Resident Evil Director's Cut, lol we had to, we didnt have a memory card, good times!
Its called smart business, Toshiba isnt stupid, HD DVD failed big deal time to move on, I still have my HD DVD player and use my PS3 for Blu Ray, maybe i'll get one of these for the bedroom. Toshiba is still a solid company.
Well, it seems to me the PSP Go was suppose to be the rumored PSP Phone but something went wrong and Sony just released this instead. Its smaller, has bluetooth and an internal hard disk, a mic, a slider panel for the controls, yep looks like a phone! Heck looks a lot like the Sony Mylo. I'll hold out for a Playstation Phone. Its kinda sad though, I got a PSP on launch day and held onto it for about two years and it literally collected dust due to lack of decent original games and expensive memory, then I sell the thing on Ebay and it gets re released and the games get a bit better and memory stick duos go down in price but this just doesnt do it for me, its too pricey for a do over, kinda how Apple resales the iPhone with little enhancements and people make a big fuss like its reinventing the wheel, perhaps I'll hit ebay and buy a cheap PSP Slim instead?
This is awesome news for Sony but I'll be sticking with my FAT PS3, I'll use a portion the money it would cost to trade up PS3s to get Uncharted 2 and MAG, hey does anyone know what a fat PS3 trades for?
Why was I voted down? I just said the game was a good game and all the naysayers will see it, its sad that people troll stuff, the game is a great addition to the franchise and I get voted down for acknowledging that, for shame!
I've been privileged enough to play this game early and rest assured it owns! Halo fans will not be disappointed, firefight is a great addition, all the trolls who've never played the game or any previous Halo titles for that matter shut the hell up!
@ The Dark Wayne,

Thats exactly what I mean, you dont have the sprint option but its no big deal, ODST's arent as strong to hold two guns and dual yield so, I'll call that valid. Bungie did a fantastic job with this, theres a slight bump up in graphics, lighting effects are GREAT! you're visor also has a compass so you can find objectives. The ODST's can take some abuse, just not as much as a Spartan, Firefight will take multiplayer to a next level, very fast paced, you get lives, but reinforcements keep coming in
Well, the game is pretty solid, it levels itself out as it progresses, its available in the US you've just gotta know where to look, its still the halo you know and love but there are some differences, ODST's cant go in gunz blazin like the Master Chief would do, health stations are spread about, the enemy A.I is sold, the lack of radar isnt too bad either as the new visor really comes in handy in the dark sections of New Mombasa, you feel attached to the characters because you see their faces

Inside Info...

ODST's cannot run, so if you're looking for Halo meets COD then you'll be disappointed
ODST's cannot dual yield guns either, this I dont know why
ODST's cannot "super jump", no floating jumps
ODST's really do have to pick their battles

Firefight rocks! nuff said, final verdict is if you like the previous Halo games this one fits in very nicely once you get use to the modified style of gameplay, you'll feel like a duck in water after a few adjustments
Well this thing looks to be up and coming but the E3 presentation did feel kinda forced, Natal is not the same as this thing to whomever said that. As someone who owns all three current gen consoles and plans on getting natal and PS's motion control I'd still give the edge to M$ and before you go sicking the flamethrowers on me just take a good look at the two and the tech inside of them if you own a PS3 Eye look at its reliability, now I havent had a hands on with Natal so I dunno all its capabilities but the feedback from valued sources (keyword valued, not biased fan sites) and the results have been pretty fair. If you read the actual tech in Natal you'll see the two are not the same, that doesnt mean that this wont succeed but just because they both have cameras involved doesnt make them the same
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"With all the new multitouch capable monitors coming out, which one is the best? With the release of Windows 7 I really want a touchscreen monitor for my desktop. I'm looking to get a Full HD monitor that supports multitouch and can still look great during gaming and movies. Which one has the best specs for the price?"
