Best Handheld Ever! (2009-03-03)
This is definetly the best handheld system. It has amazing graphics. It is like a PS2 in your hands. The joystick is and buttons are very strong. It also has a built in microphone so you use Skype to call people anywhere in the world with and internet connection. Also the internet is pretty fast for a handheld. You can also put music, video, pictures, and download games from the playstation network. And since you need an internet connection to use Skype and download games from the playstation network you can use a wireless hotspot also and since those are everywhere now it will be very easy to find them. Overall the PSP is a great handheld system and I highly recommend getting one for yourself.


It's great. However, there's always room for improvement. (2009-03-01)
It's a great system to have, and there's always room for improvement. I just got this PSP yesterday, and it's pretty good; it plays my music pretty well. I don't have any UMDs, so I can't tell how well the playback is (although I've read other reviews about the playback being pretty good.) The only problem I have with this system is that it doesn't support a lot of video and picture formats. I thought the usual formats (like for images: jpg, gif, png, etc.) and for video: avi, wmv, etc.) would work just as well as the MP3 playback, but as it turns out, it doesn't support those kinds of formats for some reason. Of course, I'm a newbie at this, so I'll have to look further into this system. Also, browsing the internet is good, but it kinda lacks the ability to update the built in flash player for certain sites.

Overall, it's pretty good, but if you're a newbie like me, you may have to study up on this.


PSP 3000 (2009-02-24)
Not sure why they call it a pack--you can't do anything with it until you buy something to use with it. Anyway, my son loves playing with this psp...that is after you buy a game and a memory stick.


fun redefined (2009-02-22)
this was bought as a gift for my brother to replace his psp (1st generation). According to his evaluation, he seems to have more fun since its faster & brighter. SDidn't go wrong with this as a xmas gift.

excellent games (2009-03-11)
These are excellent games especially for the kids or someone just starting out on vidoe games.


Great game if you played them on Genesis (2009-03-04)
This is a great collection from Sega Genesis, you will love this collection if you liked these games years back, if you havent played any you might also like these games just dont expect the greatest graphics and sound of todays games, any way i highly recommend this collection


Fun old-school compilation (2009-01-26)
This game is great for nostalgia purposes and contains many great, classic games. I wouldn't recommend it for the person just entering the gaming world, but for someone who grew up in the 80's or even 90's and actually owned a Sega, it is a mandatory purchase. All of the games on the disc have worked very well and there are a wide variety of great games. You get a lot of bang for your buck with this purchase.


Great game if you're an old Genesis fan (2009-01-26)
Super fun game. And the best part is you can finally save your progress in a Genesis game. I'm finally going to beat Vectorman!! This game is really well designed and allows you to save your progress in any of the 20+ games. I think the game selection is also really good, including classics like Sonic 1 & 2, Golden Axe 1-3, and Vectorman 1 & 2. If you like Genesis, get this game.


Nice Collection (2009-01-14)
Definitely a nice collection of the old school sega classic games, all at the palm of your hand. The game selection is great for killing time & not being bored. I highly recommend.

The Story
Living peacefully on a faraway planet, the LocoRoco and their friends, the Mui Mui, help grow vegetation and look after nature, making the planet a pleasant place to be, playing and singing the days away. When the Moja Troop comes to the planet to take it over, the LocoRoco do not know how to fight against these invaders from outer space. As such, the player assumes the role of "the planet" that is capable of tilting back and forth, and bouncing the LocoRoco in the air, to defeat the Moja Troop and rescue the LocoRoco. The player will also meet many different characters along the way, some of which are unknown to the player. The player must find out how to interact with these characters, and find out what they know, while determining if they are beneficial or should be avoided as foes. Mui Mui can be found in secret areas within the game.

Key Game Features:

  • 25 colorful new stages with hidden challenges to uncover
  • Enhance LocoRoco by collecting music notes
  • Play 6 exciting new mini games
  • Challenge friends Ad-hoc 4 player battle
  • New LocoRoco Actions: Climb into shells to roll and destroy obstacles, Swing on vines and Jump across grass blades, Sing together and collect notes, Swim underwater
Gameplay
The player controls the planet the LocoRoco inhabit to move the LocoRoco around. The player can also split larger LocoRoco into individual LocoRoco, and then recombine them. Splitting is required into order to fit through tight spaces and also solve many puzzles. (For example, smaller LocoRoco start singing when left idle for a while, which is required at the end of the levels.) There are 5 worlds to clear, each consisting of 8 levels.

The object of each level is to find and eat as many "berries" as possible to increase the size of the LocoRoco, to a maximum of 20. There are also "Pickories" and "Mui Mui" to find. The "Pickories" are used as currency for playing the minigames Mui Mui Crane and Chuppa Chuppa, while the "Mui Mui" unlock more minigames and music for the Loco House. The player must also be careful to avoid enemies, mainly "Burrs" (spiky obstacles) and "Moja", which can cause them to lose LocoRoco or even die if the last LocoRoco is lost.

LocoRoco2 equals FUN! (2009-02-27)
It's great to see that the occasional fun, creative game is still being developed. After watching the video for this game, I thought that LocoRoco2 would be kinda fun but I was worried that it would be too easy and that it would quickly get boring. I got the game a couple of days ago and LocoRoco2 is not only fun, it's almost addicting.

The mechanics of the game are pretty basic. You use 3 buttons to control the LocoRoco through about 25 levels. So it's easy to play but seriously it's not so easy that it becomes boring, it's just not stress-inducing like so many other games out there.

This game far exceeded my expectations. After playing for a couple of days, I continue to look forward to picking this game up. Seriously, it's only $20, do yourself a favor, pick up LocoRoco2, kick back, relax, and enjoy.


Addictive Fun! (2009-02-23)
I have never been the biggest videogame enthusiast since I am more of a puzzle and challenge kind of girl rather than action adventure or shoot em up game. I just recently purchased a PSP so I had a change of pace from my Cooking Mama and Super Mario Bros on the DS that you have to use the pointer for most of the time to play (sometimes I just want to play a good ole fashioned videogame). I turned this on and literally have had to make a large effort to put it down since! It is challenging enough that you have to think about things however it isn't to the point where you just get frustrated and give up and refuse to play the game anymore ha ha. I can see how if you are a crazy action fanatic this can get boring for you, however if you are like me and like the puzzles but don't want to be stumped into not being able to do anything in the game then this is the game for you. I am looking into purchasing the first one as well since apparently it has more levels yet the same type of play.


Try the demo first (2009-02-22)
I was disappointed over this game. It gets repetitious really quick.

Go on PSN(Playstation Network), and download the demo and see if you like it. It's okay.

The demo is only 64MB so I recommend trying the demo.


Blobs of Fun (2009-02-14)
One of the most brilliant games on the PSP is back for a second helping, and it does NOT disappoint. Really, this is one of those PSP games that will have your unit shutting off because you didn't notice how long you had been playing and how low your battery is running. Like its predecessor, LR2 is a classic because it is so simple to learn and easy to control, yet you need skill and practice to pick up all the berries, mui muis, and other bonuses. Apparently there aren't as many worlds in this sequel as in the original game, but there are more goals to achieve in each world, including collecting and playing musical notes. There are also new minigames, including some sort of jousting game with ad hoc multiplayer support. Game levels and graphics, plus the variety of game play, are again inspired. LR2 is quite simply a must-have for PSP owners, and one of the most exciting exclusive titles for the system. Just about the most fun $20 can buy you these days.
