whats better.. ridge racers or wipeout??

Ridgeracer seems to be sold out everywhere I've been for like 2 weeks so I guess its a very sought after game while I still occasionally see Wipeouts.

I had a conversation with my friend at Gamestop today about Ridge Racers, while I was picking up Mecury. Apparently, demand for the game before the release was pretty low (again, odd seeing as how in Japan it was THE game to get with your PSP), very few reservations... no one really seemed to care about it. Somehow that ended up in very few copies of the game being available. At launch, my friend told me they only had 3 copies of RR, and since then have only recieved two additional shipments of the game, 3 copies each, for a total of nine copies sold so far. Mind you, this is one of the main gamestops in a very heavily populated area (northridge CA, part of Los Angeles), this store sold over 200 PSP's on launch day, and have sold dozens of copies of most games. Namco just not making enough RR's for the US yet... that's why they're so hard to find.
 
I think it must be a problem with Tiger Wood's distribution in Canada or something.

But, I got the other two very quick, and at approx £25 each you cant complain, can you.
 
tiger woods is an interesting game.

the ign review was way off about load times, yes they are there but not in such a horrendous game ruining way as they were saying.

as i play more i'm starting to have problems with the nub, shots do seem to randomly fade or draw without any blue or yellow showing up in the swing.

the graphics are amazing though.
 
Most PSP games have pretty bad load times, I'm noticing... I've played roughly 15 of all the Japanese and US launch titles and I'd say all but a couple of them had enough where I would start getting frustrated by them....
