ziggom says "very good for a portable system" about Playstation - PSP

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 05:38:39 GMT

I got the PsP when it first came out. Back then it was very expensive (I honestly have no idea what it costs now) but I have always firmly believed that it is well worth the money. It has a very wide selection of games that can attract people with all interests. The system has a ton of extra features including viewing the web if you can find internet access (which isn't always easy since the game is portable) and playing music (though it doesn't store too many songs) It also can play movies which I enjoy a lot. Despite the small screen it has amazing graphics (the best portable has to offer graphicswise.) Every game I have for this system is not only visually appealing but is also fun to play. I love my PsP. There are a few flaws in it but I believe is is by far the best portable on the market. It is not as inventive as the DS is (with the touch screen) but it more than makes up for it by just having a stong quality product.

ziggom says "way too expensive for the normal gamer" about Playstation 3 - 80GB

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 05:28:56 GMT

I do not own a Ps3 of any form. My friend purchased one a long time ago and I play it sometimes over his house. The system to me seems way to expensive for the common gamer. I do not have that kind of money to waste on the system alone. If it were not for the price tag the system would have gotten at least a four star rating. Anyways, other issues I have found with the system is there is a lack of ps3 games compared to other systems. It isn't that I can't find games that I like on the system, but I like to have a wide variety of games to play. Also, I believe that some people will have more trouble than I to find a large number of games that they are willing to play. The games that the system does have are very good and the graphics are stunning. Also, the use of a blu-ray player if very helpful especially since neither my friend nor myself personally own one. The hard drive is very useful, now I can play whatever game I want without having to fumble for a memory card, or having to worry...

ziggom says "Fairer price but still not the best console" about Xbox - XBOX 360 Arcade

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 05:16:36 GMT

My brother recently purchased an xbox 360 arcade. He used to own a different version of xbox 360, but he got the red ring of death and never bothered to get that fixed. Eventually he just decided to buy a new one. Anyways, the xbox 360 arcade can do basically anything the normal xbox 360 can do except it has a much smaller hard drive. Considering the change in price, I would recommend the xbox 360 aracade over the normal xbox 360 still. I am not blown away by any of the features of the xbox 360. I think there are better systems on the market. The only real advantage the xbox 360 and xbox 360 aracade has over the other systems is the xbox exclusives. I think xbox has some of the best exclusive games on the market (like Halo.) Most xbox exclusives are also available for pcs on the computer though so I have not found it a necessity to own any version of xbox 360. I do think the graphics are amazing however and is easily has the best from any console I have seen (even though the Pc still has...

ziggom says "This is a great system" about Sony - Playstation 2 Slim Console

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 05:04:42 GMT

A long time ago I purchased a Ps2. I believe that it used to be the best system on the market, and still probably is. It has the widest selection of games from any system. It controls are very easy to learn. The Ps2 can also be used as a DvD player (lucky for me since my Dvd player died on me) It is perfect for anyone because of how large of a selection of games it has. I personally own around eighty games ranging from racing games, to shooting games, to board games, to fighting games. I have never been dissapointed from any of the features of the Ps2. I love that it comes with free internet (unlike the xbox and xbox 360). I admit its not perfect internet, but for free I'll take anything. The only flaw with the Ps2 is that the Ps2 easily breaks. It is the only system I have ever broke, and it broke three times so far on me and my family. I believe that despite that fact, it is still the best system on the market and is deffinately worth getting (just don't drop it.)

ziggom says "Best sports movie I have ever seen." about Remember the Titans

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 04:52:49 GMT

A long time ago at school we got to watch this movie, Remember the Titans, during class near the end of the year. At first I wasn't too excited since it was a football movie (into real sports not sport movies) but I am glad we got to watch this movie during class. This movie is not like a lot of other sports movies because it has real problematic storylines and a realistic sequence of events. I love how this movie intergrates both the stuggles the team has on and off the field (on the field being the football games while off the field being the struggle the town has with the intergrations of caucasians and african-american students into one school. I believe this story has a very positive message that if people can just find a way to work together than amazing things can be accomplished. It has an excellent cast that really works great together. The ups and downs of this story keep you wondering what will happen next. This movie is one of my five favorite movies of all time and I think...

ziggom says "This console is very inventive" about Nintendo - Wii Console

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 04:42:00 GMT

Two years ago I got a Nintendo Wii for my birthday. I was never huge on Nintendo products (I think they draw out the Mario franchise way too far to be honest, plus nintendo always seemed more geared to the younger crowd.) but I love the Nintedo Wii. I think it is the most inventive gaming console on the market, the only one willing to try (and succeeding perfectly at) something dangerously new. It is the cheapest of the new gaming consoles, and is the only one that I have not had a problem with. The ps3 is way too expensive, and the xbox 360...red ring of death. I think its blend of new ideas mixed with old school games is done to perfection. The games appeal to people to all aged (I have once played wii bowling with my five year old cousin and sixty year old grandmother at the same time.) I love the idea of miis (your own virtual character you use to represent yourself in certain games). There are tons of options. I have owned the system for years and are still finding new things to do....

ziggom says "Very Impressive" about Microsoft - Zune (30GB) Media Player

ziggom — Fri, 22 May 2009 04:26:24 GMT

I got the 30G Zune for Christmas last year. So far I have seen no flaws in the mp3 player. I used to own an Ipod, but that broke on me within two months, so I personally like the Zune much more than Ipods. Zunes are much cheaper and from what I have found can do as much if not more than what Ipods are capable of. I have added a ton of songs and I have not even made a slight dent in the storage size (I barely filled up 1G, that includes a few videos too.) I have tried the games that come with the system. I was not blown away by any of them, but for free games they are not too bad. I still sometimes find myself playing the poker game. I still listen to a bunch of the free music videos that came with the system. A few of the songs have become favorites of mine. I find it a little dumb that pictures come with the system though, but that is an easy fix with the delete button. Overall this is the best product I have found for the money and would recommend this product to anyone currently in...
