Do these posts even go through an editor for proofing before going up? Or is it just a stream of consciousness thing?

Double post, but thank God that they finally gave up on their BS proprietary Memory Stick crap. Yet another reason to avoid the PSP originally.

You know, at first I was kind of meh towards the idea of the PSPhone, but if it runs Android like its been rumored to, then this could possibly mean that a phone will have access to the Android Market and the Playstation Network at the same time. Throw in the fact that you'll likely be able to run emulators on it as well, and you could be looking at a beast of a gaming/multimedia smartphone. It could be a very rich man's NGage.

Let's hope they don't gimp it when they finally announce it by saying something like "it only does PS1 games" or "it only does PS Minis." Give us full access to the PSP digital library, actually support it this time, and you could have a potentially kick ass phone that lets you play games with ACTUAL BUTTONS *shock and awe*.

Lastly, let's see what the hell is going on with that touchpad up in the front there. Fake dual analogs? Why not just go with the sliders here?

I'd have Nathan Drake, Jade from BG&E, Ivy from Soul Calibur and Samus

I would've liked to see a more dynamic battle presentation -- something very similar to Dragon Quest IX's swinging battle camera would've been phenomenal here. It would give them a chance to show off more interesting environments while battling instead of this static blank BS that we've had here for over a decade.

I love Pokemon, but at the same time, it's been one of the most disappointing and slow-moving franchises in the entire industry with the way they refuse to move the gameplay forward substantially.

Take your time. A game this unique looking deserves to be in 3D. And it needs to be done well. One of the best games of this generation, portable or not, so yeah, definitely juiced for TWEWY2.

All these weapon balances are great, but the one thing I care more about than anything else in the game is that damn Conquest Fail Horn. I didn't see it mentioned in that list, so hopefully a fix for that awful design decision is buried in those unlisted tweaks they hinted at.

Ronaldo baby!

Not usually a huge Halo fan (I enjoy playing the games but the story, the lore and the hype around the franchise in general don't really move me at all), but man, Reach's push toward a more open and strategic class based gameplay sounds fantastic.

In the IGN article, they mention that the NT 1 gametype (basically Rush mode from Battlefield Bad Company with teams taking turns on offense and defense) might get taken out and is only experimental at this point. I hope not -- the closer they bring this franchise to a more teamwork focused objective based gameplay style like Battlefield, the better.

Oh, and they had me at the Tribes jet packs. Can't believe how I excited I am about a Halo game.
