we ad that a few years back when all the shops were demoing playstations. This ella says to me he says i bet you can't play this game. Now the game was soviet strike a flight sim and it was not the most accessible game but he meant i couldn't even start it. However i prooved him wrong by flying the helicopter around for a bit. Shame i never bet him a free copy of the game the aduio was first class. Your absolutley right about the lack of sound in sports games but one game that allways remains faithful is the madden series. Sure mst of the time u get whooped but its still real fun. ----- Original Message ----- From: "ari" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 05, 2006 1:50 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Games on the PSP
