Amnesia Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 been playing Mercury for a while now and I have to say that it's one of the most addictive games I've ever played. I think the feel of moving something liquid is done fairly well. At the moment we are restricted to a nub, however the tilt enhancement should be implemented in the future.

himal00 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Hello!! Does anyone know if or has an idea as to whether sony operates or has a worldwide guarantee on its products? Thanx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddcrap Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 The current battery for the system from Sony is $50. I am not sure if its out yet or not but the the Action Replay replacement battery is $39.99 and it is the same mAh rating. I don't expect a higher density battery anytime soon (at least a year but I really expect it to be a lot longer then that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amnesia Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 i bought my extra batteries (which are out in Japan but I can't speak for the US) for 18 pounds each. Very nice deal for official ones. Toshiba have created this revolutionary battery technology which fills up to 80% in 5 minutes (as described in an article in Japantoday.com) I'm sure Sony will use it to it's advantage (as well as other companies) once the technology is out in the open.

Pheee Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Well I just got my PSP The Place my brother got it was an EBGames in Boulder Colorado, the shop owner said out of the 200 he has sold since the release he has not had one returned. My Brother checked it and sure enough there is no problems with it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sn00pie Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Man, I want one of these. I know if I ask my parents, they'll end up getting me one, but it's just that I'm one of those people who feels bad when I make my parents spend a wad of cash on me. What should I do?

US and Jap PSPs can play any region games so you can buy a Jap PSP and play US games on it. 2. UMD movie discs are region coded. If you buy a US PSP you can only use region 1 films, and a Jap PSP will play only region 2 UMD movies (luckily Japan shares the same region as the UK). Not a big deal unless you desperatly want to pay ?20 for a film you probably already own. 3. When the Jap PSP boots it asks if you want Jap or English menus for the PSP OS. Choose English and never see another japanese character again unless.... 4. ....you buy a Jap game, in which case it may have some Japanese in it. Obviously US games will be entirely in english. 5. Where to import - a lot of people have been mentioning this place Electricbirdland , prices look good. I recommend getting the value pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeni Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 What game do yo think is bestMercury or Lumines? 585807565[/snapback] Lumines! :D And in regards to the question about the 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo, you'll have to wait, no Canadian retailers have them as of yet. The best prices thusfar are from either NCIX or FrontierPC, both hovering around the 150 dollar mark. I would suggest waiting on stock for NCIX, as they have good customer service and decent shipping speed. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
