Tetris (PSP Minis) on Playstation Portable Review

October 5th, 2009 Playstation Review No comments
Tetris (PSP Minis) on Playstation Portable Review. The classic Tetris gameplay remains in-tact in this no-nonsense reproduction of a fan favourite. Tetris has finally hit the PSP as part of Sony’s new PSP Minis initiative. The gameplay remains largely unchanged, with the familiar host of block shapes vying for your line deleting attention through a host of increasingly tense levels. The game does a great job of recording stats — tracking your lifetime total of lines cleared and hig

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Limited Lifetime
Apparently Amazon thinks this is battery pack is a game, haha…

Oh well… the pack is good… But won’t last forever… mine lasted about a year and a half.

5 Stars Great
Must-have if you don’t feel like changing batteries every week or so saves alot of money in the long run.

5 Stars great product
I have 3 of these battery packs and the quick charger. Its the worst when you’re in the middle of a game (esp online) and your batteries die. For $12, these battery packs are pretty much a no-brainer. They’re solidly made (though I still hate the clam-shell packaging which makes it hard to open) and I’ve recharged a single pack, easily two dozen times. So far as I can tell, it still has full charge. Think about it this way - a package of AA batteries costs about $8-10 depending on where you go. You’ll burn through those batteries in a month or two, or shorter if you use the netflix feature on x-box live and forget to turn off your controller while watching. Your usage will obviously greatly vary, but you could be conceivably paying $30-40/year on batteries!

$12 for a battery pack.

1 Star Don’t buy the pink one
I have had a battery for my white controller for several years and havn’t had any problems. I bought a pink controller and i didn’t use it for a few weeks and it wouldn’t hold a charge anymore. So i bought another one which i uses on a more regular basis, and it stopped holding a charge and it’s only been a few months. I kept it plugged up for like a day, and it starting working again like normal. It worked for about two weeks and now it won’t charge again. I can keep it plugged up for hours and as soon as i unplug it it cuts off. I would give my white battery pack five stars, but the pink one is junk.

5 Stars Lasts Long Pink Battery
This was a great deal! The battery lasts very long before you have to charge it and it gets great distance. I recommend buying this if you have a pink controller and need a battery pack.

Review: Resident Evil 4: Mobile Edition

August 7th, 2009 Playstation Review No comments
The first few times I picked up Resident Evil 4: Mobile Edition ( iTunes link ), I wanted to throw my iPhone out the window and watch it slowly sail 8 stories below into the Potomac river. Now, after five days of playing through the game’s 12 levels, I am ready to take my iPhone into bed with me and make sweet love to it. The controls take a lifetime to get used to, but once you’ve got them down, the game is extremely addictive. It took me a full three levels to get used to the game mechanic, bu
