Jackass The Game review PSP | PSP review Jackass The Game | Jackass The Game review
You might have watched the TV series and maybe seen the two Jackass movies. Very funny movies at that. Well now you have a change to do all the crazy things these guy’s do in a new game. Not surprising the game is called.. Well…. Jackass - The game.
The Jackass director has been injured and is taken of to hospital, leaving you to be the director of a new TV season of Jackass. But only 7 episodes! Each of the episodes has 5 stunts you have to complete. So that only makes 35 stunts / 35 short mini games.
Very Basic controls. Here all you need to do is tap the X button, Later ["] to stop.
So the game is a really a collection of mini-games. Most of which are very basic to control. Some only use two buttons. For example to accelerate tap the X button rapidly. Many games use more keys of course, but again its fairly basic and simple. All the games are very easy to control.

Reviewed: Brunswick Pro Bowling on the PSP by Crave Games.
Bowling isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. But if your a fan and bowling is your game then Crave Games might have a game for you or not…. The game features customisable players in career mode, quick play mode and mutliplayer mode, up to 4 players with the same psp or Ad hoc wifi mutliplayer.
Bowling control is rather easy, analog stick to control the aim (left or right) and D-pad for spin and angel of bowl. Once your aim is set you use the analog stick again for swing accuracy and strength. (As seen below in the screen shots)
Brian Lara 2007 Pressure Play Review.
Today’s PSP review Brian Lara 2007 Pressure Play (Brian Lara International Cricket 2007) by Codemasters. The first Cricket game on the PSP System. (Could be named Ricky Ponting 2007 Pressure Play, in Australia / NZ)
The game features all the ICC Teams in the 2007 cricket world cup. Be it a little late for the world cup which was some time ago this year. The game has all the names and players would would expect, Brain Lara of course, Ricky Ponting, Stephen Fleming etc. As a cricket fan myself and remembering the days of Brain Laras Cricket on the old Playstation I was keen to see how this game had turned out.
Gameplay is some what different in ways to other cricket sims, Bowling is a matter of placing the marker with the analog stick where the ball will bounce and a sliding meter bar you have to click to control the pace of the bowl. Fielding is some what automatic here, but again you have to click to time the catches and throws well. This involves another sliding meter which you have to click in the red zone in order to take a catch. Too slow and you’ll drop the ball. Its all in the timing. (As seen in the screenshot below)
Batting shots are different here X is a ground shot, Circle is a lofted hit, Square is a defensive shot–with the PSP’s analog stick used to direct the hit. Timing is an important factor in making a successful hit, as players will need to start their swing at the appropriate time to make the best contact with the ball. To help with timing, a metered bar appears in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen which shows if you’re swinging early, late, or on time.
Dead Head Fred PSP Review | Sony PSP Dead Head Fred review - Killed all the Fun?
A few days ago I got my hands on Dead Head Fred, a game by Vicious Cycle. Where you take on the role of Fred a Private Investigator who was murder while investigating the local nuclear Plant owner Mr Pitt.
This third-person action title you basically smash and punch your way through a lot of zombies. The graphics are top notch, good textures and animations for a PSP. As well as the voice acting too throughout the game from the main actor . However the game lacks the finer details when it comes to gameplay, I found at times its frustrating to control and well as the game areas normally are very small and you’ll have a goal from that one area before you can exit it. You can’t really explore as it loads in a certain area are and that’s it.The load times are fine, but again its only normally loading in 1 smallish area at a time.
