Black Hawk Down (UMD Mini For PSP) Customer Review: Good movie
This is a good movie and it tries to give us a good perspective of what the experience was like. I am not sure how much is acurate with the story but I do know it was a great film

In a nutshell:
The DS finally gets its very own Web browser, as Nintendo firmly embraces the Internet age and finds some clever new uses for the touch screen and stylus.

The lowdown:
The DS Browser comes on both its own DS cartridge and a memory pack that fits into the GBA slot of your DS (there are two version of the Browser, with memory packs to fit either the original DS or the DS Lite). The obvious benefit of surfing the Web on a DS is the large screen area afforded by two screens and the stylus - which also makes typing in Web addresses a lot easier. The problems though are a low screen resolution and the fact that the browser doesn’t support Flash files, movie files, sound files, PDFs or anything else that needs a plug-in to work. As long as you recognise the limitations though, this is still a cheap and easy way to access the Internet when on the move.

Most exciting moment:
The big problem with accessing the Web outside of PC monitor is that it doesn’t all fit on screen at once. The DS overcomes this problem in perhaps the most elegant manner yet, with an option to put an overview of the whole page on the top screen while letting you scroll around on a zoomed in version on the touch screen.

Since you ask:
The DS Browser is based on a PC application called Opera, developed by Opera Software. The same company is also creating a version of the browser for use with the Wii console, which will be free for the first six months of the console’s life.

The bottom line:
Surf the Web on the move, but don’t expect an entirely smooth ride. -HARRISON DENT

Customer Review: Effectively Useless
The concept of the browser for DS and DS Lite is simple, an Opera based web browser optimised for the system allowing you to view web pages on your Nintendo handheld. While it accomplishes this the end result is effectively useless, the Nintendo DS just was not designed for web browsing and this is very obvious. Reading most text requires zooming in to a degree that excessive scrolling is required, loading speeds are generally slow and macromedia flash is not possible due to the memory limitations. While having a web browser on the DS has its uses, it is rarely as enjoyable as using a computer. This combined with the limited functionality of the browser create a heavily overpriced item. For the ?20-?30 people are spending, this needed to be something above expectations. It isn’t.
Customer Review: Useful Net Access for Travellers
Do you get out and about a lot but are afraid to lose contact with your far away internet buddies? Then this nifty piece of software is perfect for you! Available in both DS and DS Lite versions (the first will stick out of the Lite, naturally), the DS Browser is perfect for checking and sending e-mails or looking up the odd bit of data. It has an in built handwriting recognizer which makes writing more simpler than the point and click method. Password and minor customization features are also included. And yes, the DS Browser also works in America! I bought one for a friend over there and it checked out great with her. Just remember, with its limited supply of memory included in the GBA memory cart, visiting websites with a lot of imagery isn’t a good idea. You can’t view anything that requires a plugin, so Flash movies are a no-go. And you certainly can’t use any form of IM chat (but in browser chat clients like GTalk may well be an option). But for keeping in touch when you’re on the move, it’s very handy and a lot cheaper to maintain than mobile phone text messages. Just make sure you keep a list of the nearest Wi-Fi hotspots handy.

The epic story of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker continues as Link finds himself lost and alone in unknown seas in a new adventure. Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. But time grows short, and only the Phantom Hourglass can buy Link the minutes he?ll need to survive. Many months have passed since the events of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and Link, Tetra and Tetra?s band of pirates have set sail in search of new lands. They come across a patch of ocean covered in a dense fog, in which they discover an abandoned ship. Tetra falls into danger when she explores the ship alone, and Link falls into the ocean when he attempts to rescue her. When he washes up unconscious on the shores of a mysterious island, he is awakened by the sound of a fairy?s voice. With the aid of this fairy, he sets off to find Tetra ? and his way back to the seas he once knew. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is controlled almost entirely by the stylus. Using the touch screen, players direct Link?s movements and attacks: A sweeping motion triggers Link?s spin attack and tapping characters makes Link speak with them. The stylus controls offer a more intuitive means of playing the game and open up new possibilities for puzzle solving. The game action takes place primarily on the touch screen, with a map on the top screen. However, the player can inspect the map on the touch screen and make notes using the stylus. The notes on these maps are saved for review on the top screen during game play. Players use the map to chart courses for their ships, too. Using the stylus to draw a path through the islands, players set their ships? courses. Then, as the ships automatically follow the paths drawn, players can control their ships? cannons to target oncoming enemies. In dun

Customer Review: The best DS game so far
This is really an excellent game! whereas other games have been transferred to the DS and dont take advantage of the new things it offers, this game is built for the DS and uses everything that the DS has to offer. Gameplay is brilliant and using the stylus is easy and dare i say it a lot better than using the d-pad. This game just prooves to me why nintendo is still the best developer because it manages to get the best games out of its hardware! an essential purchase
Customer Review: Amazing!
I Have Only Just Bought My Zelda Game Today And I Am Already Amazed By The Graphics And Gameplay Of This Nintendo DS Game! If You’re Deciding Wether To Buy This Game… Buy It!!!

Talladega Nights - The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (UMD Mini for PSP)
The fastest man on four wheels, Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) is one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. A big, hairy American winning machine, Ricky has everything a dimwitted daredevil could want, a luxurious mansion, a smokin’ hot wife and all the fast food he can eat. But Ricky’s turbo-charged lifestyle hits an unexpected speed bump when he’s bested by flamboyant Euro-idiot Jean Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen, TV’s “Da Ali G Show”) and reduced to a fear-ridden wreck. Losing his wife and job to best bud and fellow fool, Cal Naughton, Jr. (John C. Reilly), Ricky must kick some serious asphalt if he’s to get his career back on the track, beat Girard and reclaim his fame and fortune. ‘Cause as Ricky Bobby always says, IF YOU AIN’T FIRST, YOU’RE LAST!

Customer Review: Bah
I found this movie Cornie and stupid. The whole plot is very redneck to me. Perhaps I have the wrong sense of humor for this. It is definitely not for everyone. I like some of Ferrell’s other stuff. This one does not do much for me.
