Is PSP 4000 real?

This is what PSP 4000 might look like, according to other sources. Hmmm... I don't think this one's gonna be it. It just looks plain boring. I'm sure Sony will put on a more aesthetically cool overhaul.

This is what PSP 4000 might look like, according to other sources.

There is word that, despite the PSP 3000 launching this year and failing to give the system any sort of worldwide appeal, Sony will continue to abandon logic and reason by releasing a PSP 4000 in late 2009, before working on a real successor console at a later date. Wait, what?

 

There has been no official announcement, but GI.biz seems fairly certain that this is happening. Sony has refused to comment on either the 4000 SKU or a real successor.

If a PSP 4000 truly is planned for next year, then Sony has thoroughly lost the plot. It’s bad enough that the PSP currently has three models, none of which have resonated with a wide audience outside of Japan, but to update the model only a year after the last failed attempt is to alienate the market entirely.

Unlike the PS3, the PSP is truly a system with a mediocre game library. People don’t want the PSP because it tried to do everything and ended up doing nothing. If Sony thinks rehashed consoles are the way to stop being this generation’s whipping boy, it’s in for a rude awakening. 

But then, come to think of it, the PSP itself (i mean the PSP 2000) is one heck of a cool handheld already. It is by far one of the best handheld i’ve ever encountered alongside DS. Though I know it is imperative that they try to think of new things to spice up the PSP market, i just hope they won’t try to make very big changes to how PSP operates nowadays (^_^)V

Ako basta content sa PSP slim ko hehe (^_^)V

Playstation Portable VS Nintendo DS

I’d say: PSP

Though I was a nintendo Fan since childhood, I must admit that I use my PSP more often than my NDS

Advantages of PSP
- Graphics are awesome, the DS doesn’t even come close.
- Listen to music, watch videos, emulate older consoles, view pictures, play games, surf the net do special purpose programs (homebrews) all that in one portable gadget.
- FREE GAMES: A lot… technically everything is free (i get mine from psphq.co.uk)
- Games are played surprisingly well, given that robust set of controls.
- New programs/homebrew/downloads released EVERYDAY of EVERY HOUR… literally. which means there are LOTS of things to do with the PSP i doubt they’ll run out of ideas.

Advantages of NDS
- Games have very fast loading time
- The DS can be connected to your WII via wi-fi connection which means more features and unlockables for your games (though the psp can be connected to the ps3, the nds connectivity offers more addition to the games)
- Touch screen gaming is fun especially in some games like Wario ware etc.
- PICTOCHAT (DS to DS IM service) is fun, though only a few meters away.
- FREE GAMES: A lot… hehehe just search google
- A lot cheaper than PSP that’s for sure Laughing
- Can play GBA cartridges too
- Longer battery life than the PSP
- (DS LITE only) controls are very good and responsive, and many games just require you to use your fingers on the touch screen which increases accuracy of game controls.
- Lots of minigames which is SO MUCH fun with the stylus.

But then, these two handhelds have their own pros and cons, it really depends on them users’ preferences.

Letting go

It was yesterday at around noon. I was just watching TV lookin’ for programs worth watching… So there i changed channels and got bored so with nothing else to do i decided to play Final Fantasy XII on my ps2.

I play this game everyday, I always play games. Especially RPGs… 

I remember long time ago, when i was still in college, i accidentally met this beautiful girl who loved video games as much as i do, she was strong-willed, never having to need anybody to look after her, she was really tough to deal with at times but in the end she’ll give a beautiful look back at you.

I became friends with her, along with our friends we were all happy with what we had in common, we laughed and it was fun. Eventually i fell for her, she was the same. We had our own share of breakups, thinking that it would be the last time but in a manner of weeks or months we’ll just surprise ourselves back together and talking once again.

Later on I was already working, she was finishing college… My job took over my life, I eventually forgot who I really was, those things that i liked, those friends that i had, they slowly drifted away. I knew she was so hurt and i also knew that she thought that i was a different person. 

I even had an affair with someone else though that girl knew i was still in love with the same girl i once loved. I tried to get back but it was different, somehow life as an adult is not as easy as i thought it would be. So i promised my self, i’m gonna fix my life, earn myself enough respect, get me some good money and once i’m done with all of this, I’m going to take her back.

It was February 13, i had an argument with my boss coz i need 14th as my free day so i can take her to a date, but it didn’t happen. 2 days after, it was 15th, that i asked her what happened, she told me she went with this guy, and she seemed very happy. For me it was the opposite.

One afternoon, while i was checking my friendster, i came across her new profile, it was a new one. And she was already in a relationship. At first i thought it was a joke, but as days went by i came to realize it wasn’t. It was the very first time i ever saw here with someone else and i was out cold and literally broken. I tried to act tough and all but in the end she won.

My plan of making my life stable so i can prove her family that i am deserving was finally over. Everyday i checked on her to find out what’s going on and that’s the time i knew that she was very happy now. We tried to close this chapter in our life a lot of times, but i guess this time’s serious. It really is over and it’s sinking in. I don’t want to ruin other people’s happiness. I guess that regrets really come in when you’re already into it.

I have to let go now. This part of my life will always be remembered.  Today is March 19, 2009. After this, I’ll forget all the sad things and move one as she did the same.

My allergies

I’m so friggin pissed off coz i have a cold today. I’m allergic to a lot of things and i dunno why. Here are some of the things i’m allergic to alongside with its effect/s:

1. Shrimp: My tongue and face itches

2. Crab: My tongue itches but not as bad as shrimp. So i eat it sometimes.

3. Cigarette smoke: I sneeze afterwards

4. Car smoke: Same as cigarette smoke

5. HEAT: My skin dries up and becomes red and sometimes i get rashes. And worse… I get pimple/s. tsk tsk tsk.

6. Chocolate: It makes me sneeze… though i always eat it.

7. Detergent: So whenever i wash my clothes i inevitably sneeze.

This next one’s a different allergy. This is not physical but these things changes my mood in a bad way:

1. Cigarette smoke: I get so irritated with the person.

2. People who smells like beer: I get mad at that person. 

3. Sneezing: I dun wanna talk to anybody so either i go home and lock myself in my room.

 

If only there’s a cure for this kind of things i would save money just to take these away from my system.

I lost almost 15 pounds.

I should’ve posted photos so i can show the difference… 2 months ago i looked very big that my co-workers were tellin’ me “Lo what happened to you” or “You look so chubby now” and all that cr*p… at first i didn’t pay attention to it… but when i looked at the mirror 2 months ago, i said “i’m in deep sh*t… i’m big.” 

And so it happened… I got sick from thinking about how i looked lately… and for some reason i really got sick, literally. i had fever and i lost appetite with RICE. Believe it or not, up to this day, i haven’t eaten RICE coz i dun like it anymore i dunno what happened to me i think i switched something off in my brain or sumthin… It’s March 12 now… and i lost 13 pounds… in just two months… it’s good news for me… but the bad news is… it’s going on and on and on i’m afraid that i’ll become too thin if i keep this up.

 

But if you’re going to see me personally i still look like a big guy. But if you saw me two months ago, you’ll see the big difference. I wonder how i will look after another two months… hope i dun get too thin tsk tsk tsk… but then i’m not worrying about that thing for now.

I created this because my older account was acting pretty weird at times… I dunno if i should get rid that account or not… but it’s such a waste if i will coz i have lotsa friends there he he he

Nevertheless, I’ll give priority to this new account and maybe I’ll just keep the older one on standby more fro the time being.
