Well for those who aren’t familiar with Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops Plus (what a mouth full) here’s a quote of what the game is all about.

“Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops Plus is a standalone follow-up to last year's award winning stealth action title Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. Focusing on a portable multiplayer experience, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops Plus players will be able to enjoy more maps, more missions, and recruit a talented crew of war heroes for battling real opponents in online arenas”

The title has recently been released in Europe and is currently err…out of stock in SA (Take 2). The PSP is however not that popular in South Africa and that makes me wonder how good the multiplayer based games are doing here. I probably only know two people who actually own a PSP which is quite sad. I would really like to buy the title but due to the lack of PSP gamers here I might just hold back for awhile. For the lucky MGS fans that have buddies with PSP’s I would fully recommend purchasing the latest installment.

Welcome to another episode of Pimp your PSP (actually this is the first episode). Our lucky selected winner is Mr. Solid Snake from CSI and he’s getting his very much broken PSP pimped! (Imagine that)

The first step is to replace the screen but that seems like effort so we’ll just replace the whole damn thing. Second step is to give some style and this is where Decalgirl comes in.

Decalgirl is an online store that offers a massive variety of skins for not just PSP but any console as well as iPods and cell phones. The great thing about these skins is that they keep your PSP scratch free, are available for the slim and fat series, removes easily without any sticky residue and pretty affordable (they also ship to South Africa).

So if you’re scared about scratching you PSP or just want to give it some style Decalgirl might just be the shop you need. We decided to use the crime scene skin for our CSI client as shown above.

Good news for Take 2 online shoppers (and no I’m not a Take 2 affiliate) is that Gurumin – A Monstrous Adventure is currently selling at only R159. If you’re not familiar with Gurumin I won’t be surprised. Gurumin is an extremely overlooked Japanese action RPG starring a cute little girl who has to slay demons and stuff. It’s the usual Mario 64 type game with RPG elements added.

Keep in mind that if you’re not really an anime fan then this title might not be for you. For everybody else I’ll recommend checking out the review on Gamershell. The game is really priced well and after some Google searches this is the cheapest copy I could find (feel free to mail me if you find it cheaper elsewhere). So if you’re an anime fan and need something new to play at a bargain price then I would fully recommend checking Gurumin out.

You can find the Take 2 item link in the title bar.
