Could well have been that, I seem to recall it having a short name. Shame I don't have any PS2 games

Yeah, try saying it fast ten times in a row - also ePSXe, though that one doesn't have a PS2 version.

and click your heels 3 times together dorothy :)

Strange. I buy most of my stuff in AU and you buy yours in the US.
I bought a dvdplayer in AU because the DVD's over there are like 6times cheaper then in belgium. So i don't have to worry about the region settings :)
saved me a lot of money.
so i might consider doing the same with a PS3

Thats IF they're region free and the online elements will work here, those are things I'll be wanting to use the most (sod all point getting a PSPGo if I can't buy & download the games because I'm not from america)

Ewww. There's no UMD on the PSPGo? I looooove the UMD format. Those things survived 3 road trips and 2 ex-girlfriends. My favorite portable, ever. Great media device, too.

Heh shows the differences in persepective, the very reason I got interested in the go was the lack of UMD
Shame the removal of this complicated and expensive component in favour of cheap plentiful flash memory has somehow managed to put the price UP. Suppose thats what Sony gets for having its manufacturing facilities in the evil parallel universe where everything is its opposite. At least they have the decency to shave the goatee's off the consoles before they ship them.

Haven't you ever heard of an input switcher? At one point I had a NES, Sega Genesis, PS2, DVD player and a PC all hooked up to a single input on my old TV, through a switcher box that allowed me to change devices with a simple push of a button, no unplugging of cables required. Granted, I had a ridiculously large video cabinet capable of holding all that stuff, but once it was all hooked up, there was zero hassle involved in using it.
They removed one complicated and expensive component only to replace it with a new complicated and expensive component: the OLED screen. I'm not sure they even broke even on the PSPGo's manufacturing costs compared to the original PSP's manufacturing costs, OLED's are still really expensive.

I'm probably going to get that thing. The reviews for it are really, really solid, which is far from guaranteed with the first generation of electronic items.
I watch Netflix instant-watch live on my laptop in bed now, and it's really great, but of course a lot depends on your connection. Bad internet and they'll lower your resolution and/or you'll see freezing. But it's a fantastic way to see lots of movies. And it would often be nicer to have the movie up on my TV. The sound off my laptop is great because I have really good superfi earbuds, but still, who wants to wear earbuds all the time? The sound on my laptop without 'em though, is less than amazing.

Man, you got me all excited, thinking that box gives you access to Netflix's streaming library without having to have a Netflix account. Godddddddd.

Well, you have to have the netflix account, there's no monthly fees for the device itself is what I meant.

Looks like Sony has killed any possibility of PS2 backwards compatibility returning via a software update:

So they can sell PS1/PS2 game via digital distribution and make people pay again to play games they already own.

Yep, pretty much (except for the PS1 part, all PS3's have PS1 B/C). Greedy bastards!
