I've got my gp2x, and have some games on it, namely Duke Nukem 3D, Sam 'n' Max Hit the Road and Day of the Tentacle. All work pretty much fine. A must in terms of purchase of a gp2x is some 2000mAh or greater rechargable AA batteries. I'd say 6 should do, so you can have some on charge, some in the gp2x and some spare with you.
Duke 3D is pretty rockin, brings me back to the days of skewed perspectives and a bit of auto-aim. I can't cheat cos I'd need a keyboard to put the cheats in, but it actually gives me a challenge. I could do with a way to un-bind some of the controls as I currently have JUMP and LOOK UP on the same button. :)
Sam 'n' Max has just got dufficult as the Whack A Rat game really neads a mouse, but it plays perfectly apart from that.
Day of the Tentacle is pretty much a ditto of Sam 'n' Max, scummvm is pretty damn hot for gp2x. I'm looking to maybe get hold of a copy of some of the Monkey Island series. I just want to laugh at the cheesey jokes.
I have tried the video playback, about a 5mb divx in a .avi file. Played nicely. Also put a few photos on it too. The image viewer's rotate function with the shoulder buttons it damn quick and impressive. I bought a 1Gb SD card and have all my game stuff on that.
That's all on the gp2x for now, if you want specifics on anthing to do with anything mentioned here, post a comment or email me with WARPY in the subject -> munk3h@gmail.com
