Late Night Consoling

I have a sad, sad confession to make. I haven't tried Halo 2 multiplayer. *sob* Don't look at me! Okay, look at me. Ever since the dog chewed through the network cable, I've been too lazy to replace it. Actually, I did try once, but I screwed up crimping the connector and gave up. However, I plan to set up a wireless network this weekend to accommodate the arrival of my PSP, so that may be a good time to fix that cable problem. What online PSP titles are you guys picking up?

    The latest issue of Game Informer sheds a few clues on how the Revolution will not use the traditional buttons, as suggested by President Iwata. The controller will ditch convention and focus on touch screen technology. The argument for would be that it now puts the entire control scheme into the hands of the developers, allowing them to create the method of interaction. However, gamers lose tactile feedback. Truth or an April Fool's joke?
