My PSP broke a few months ago. I was seeking a replacement. Given I had hacked my PSP to run homebrew and therefore emulation stuff on it, I felt I needn't necessarily be looking at another one. So I was looking into various handhelds designed to run emulators and such, and pulled the trigger on this:

A GP2X Caanoo, It's awesome. I've installed a fuckton of emulators on it, thanks to someone putting them all in a lovely starter pack on t'internet.
Anyway, now I'm spoilt for choice. I've downloaded ROMs of the Marios and Sonics I wanted, but I think this is a prime opportunity to play catch up on shit I missed first time round, namely the Neo Geo. I remember reading about the Neo Geo. I also remember how I would never be able to own one on account of the games being so ungodly expensive, what with it being essentially the same guts that SNK used for their arcade games.
All being well, I might be needing a bigger SD card too...
Anyone able to recommend some good Neo Geo games? all I have right now are Fatal Fury and King of Fighters '94, but I would like to expand beyond fighting games really. And any PC Engine/TurboGrafx recommendations stuff would also be welcome.

AC Revelations:
WTF is with that ending...they went all matrix 3.
They tied up Altair's storyline, as well as Ezio's...very nicely if I might add.
...but the Desmond "cliffhanger"

Stoked to find out about the new hero...AC3 is supposed to take place during the American Revolution

OKAY, still haven't finished Theme Hospital
Finished Prototype, cool concept, got really repetitive
Currently playing Joint Task Force... it's fucking cool
thinking about finishing Theme Hospital and JTF and trying Abe's Exodus/Odyssey...
oh, also tried Call Of Cthulhu - Dark Corners Of THe Earth... no, i don't think so... seemes kinda dull

Yesssssssssss. 100% my favourite games ever, I've probably completed BGII something like 10 times, if you want a challenge do it solo on the hardest difficulty. That's pretty fun.

Don't go through everything the same way you did the first time. Use your IMAGINATION
