Mega Man Addict

Comments off · August 21, 2006 at 6:00 am · Personal

The entire Mega Man series is one that I grew up playing religiously. I am not sure if I can put my finger on exactly what in it is so addicting to me though. Maybe it is all the pits with spikes? Maybe it is that face to face with one of the bosses? Whatever it is, I recently got hooked again.

The other day I picked up Mega Man Powered Up for my PlayStation Portable. Now the “cuteness” of the game might make more than a few folks avoid it. If you can get beyond that though - there is a lot of fun to be had. Out of all the PSP games I have played thus far, Mega Man Powered Up is the best.

The best part about the game is the construction mode. Even when I have beat the game, there is still more fun to be had. I can create my own stages with the easy to use editor inside of the game. I really wish more games came with this feature.

Now I know I don’t give my thoughts on video games that much here. For what it is worth though, I suggest everybody who has a PSP to drop $20 and pick up this game.

 

PSP 2.8 Firmare - Thoughts and Links

Well I upgraded my PSP to the newest firmware yesterday. I haven’t had too much time to play with it, but I have loaded it up with some new goodies.

First things first, I dropped a few video podcasts on it. Sure, we all wanted streaming video, but I am just as happy with downloading videos via the RSS feed. This takes my PC out of the middle and lets me check out and manage a lot more video content.

I got the latest game demos as well for the PSP. Lots of fun to be had, I just wish that Sony would release game demos a little more often and wouldn’t make us jump through ten hoops to get them on the PSP.

The last thing I have done is added Blaugh’s RSS feed to my PSP RSS Feed Reader. Yeah, you can subscribe to images via RSS now as well.

All in all, I really like this newest firmware update. Now if we could only get those downloadable PSOne games coming, I would be one happy gamer.
