Nuff Gamez

You know that road trip we keep saying we're going to make? You know, the one where we're going to drive down to Austin to stop my girlfriend from watching that VHS of me shagging some blonde one-night-stand that I sent to her by mistake? It's gonna be great, and now we have the happy happy goodness of our drooling lobotomised PSPs, I decided to see just how much A-rated gamer goodness I could cram into my Mem-o-stiku at the same time to keep us occupied on the journey.

Avoiding the horribly flawed "WTF did I DL this shit for?" of Mega Man, I dragged the smallest games on to my stick until it screamed out in over stuffed-agony. Turns out, this trip will be filled with many hours of (mostly puzzler) fun as we wind our way down south trying to avoid the gaze of the fugly deliverance dude with the obvious eating disorder sitting next to us in the back. Get away from me, man, stop looking at me. I don't care who's car it is.

Here's the listage -- chekkit:
Lumines
Space Invaders Evolution
Every Extend Extra
Mercury Meltdown
Pilot Academy
Virtua Tennis

and of course, Syphon Filter is in the slot pretending to be all of the above. The irony.

So that's seven games. Couple that with the improvements in battery life that we're seeing due to the fact that our PSPs no longer have to spin up an electric motor or run an optical read head and we're doing pretty well.

Right, that's it, pull over, I'm putting the freak out on the highway.

As I told Ruut on Friday night I have cut down VCS to a svelte and trim 1Gb. Nothing core to the game is lost, all the music is intact and the multiplayer still works (as tested with the might Jal Saviour over the weekend.)

This leaves room for the rather lovely Everybody's Golf, and I'm wondering if Star Wars Lego II will fit.

Oh... and that's more or less exactly 1Gb, so it won't fit on a 1Gb stick.
