Download Free PSP Games

If you are an owner of a PSP, then you know how difficult it can be to find a reliable website to download free psp games. There are three different types of websites that offer game downloads.

Website no 1

The first website can be found simply by going to your favorite search engine and typing in the keywords "download free PSP games". What you will find are sites that offer game downloads for no fees at all. The down side to using these websites to download games is that the download speeds are extremely slow and they can put unwanted spyware and virus on your PC.

Website no 2

Another type downloads website you will find are websites that say they are free, but when you try to click on a game download, the website will charge you a fee for each game you download. These websites are not the way to go.

Website no 3

The next type of websites are the best psp download sites. These sites will typically charge you a minimal membership fee, usually in the $40.00 range and will allow you to download as many games as you want at no additional price. These download websites are highly recommended for a few reasons. These sites are reliable and do not put spyware or potential viruses on your computer. Also, they have the best selection of games and the download speeds are much faster than any website online. Click Here to visit my website http://www.WorkAtHomeToolChest.com/pspdownloads for a list of the top three websites.

Jason writes for http://www.workathometoolchest.com/pspdownloads.html A site dedicated to help PSP gamers save money downloading psp games and finding the best psp download sites online. Select the best psp download membership and start downloading psp games for a low one time membership fee. Stop paying for all of those psp games. Download PSP Games now.

These Montgomery, Ala.,  cows seem unaware of a proposal Thursday, Dec. 4, 2008 by the Environmental Protection Agency to charge a fee for air-polluting cows and hogs. The proposal was one of several drafted after a 2007 Supreme Court ruling found that greenhouse gases the animals emit through flatulence or belching amounts to air pollution. It would require farms or ranches with more than 25 dairy cows, 50 beef cattle or 200 hogs to pay an annual fee of about $175 for each dairy cow, $87.50 per head of beef cattle and $20 for each hog. (AP Photo/Dave Martin)AP - For farmers, this stinks: Belching and gaseous cows and hogs could start costing them money if the federal government decides to charge fees for air-polluting animals.

Age of Conan AoC - How to Make In-Game Gold and Become Filthy Rich

Basics

#1 Make Different Character(s) (Mule/Alt).

Characters Name:

While you're making your character, keep in mind that the name of it is important. You're going to want make a name that seems natural (The point is don't call it something like "Mule2" or "Bank1"). Don't make it too unique, you don't want people remembering it very well.

#2 Research Researching the Trader and Making a database: You will want to scan the Trader for a few days before you start using this strategy. When I'm playing the game I usually scan the Trader about four times a day. On days when I don't play the game I try my best to scan two times, once in the morning and once at night. If you just scan the Trader once then go off of those stats, you will lose A LOT of money. So give yourself a little bit of time to build a database of items listed.

#3 Purchase the Good Deals Now you will go back and buy out all of the good deals that you found. Use your head and use the information I give you inside of this section to pick which items are good buys.

#4 Repost in the Trader After you find buy the items you have discovered that sell well, go ahead and repost them for a higher price. Try this out with lower priced items first to build your gold savings. After you have enough gold to deal with blues and gather even more gold, start with purples. You can have as many items being posted on the Trader as you want.

#5 Go Back To Step One The more you do this the more gold you will get. The more gold you get the more gold you can make because you have more gold to buy more items to resell.

Buying Tips

Weekend Mornings This is a secret that is used by the Chinese to make huge amounts of gold fast. During this time, most active players have time to log into their accounts and play. During the weekend nights, people are doing things with guilds. When their weekend is about to end they take a stroll to the Trader and put up all their new items they found over the weekend. Because this is the time that most people play, this is also the time that the Trader will be swamped with new items. Now's a GREAT time to buy things that people want to make a quick sale of. They want their item sold because they might not have time to play until next weekend. Check the Channel for Items The channel is where I've found some of my best buys. People post their item in the channel because they want it sold right there and then! You can take advantage of these sellers because they're in a hurry to sell their item. Always let them start the price, but if you suspend that their item is worth a lot, check the Trader to see if there's already one in there. If there is and its expensive, buy the one from the channel so that you can make a profit. This is a great place to pick up some deals also!

Epics and Blues These are the last items you should go for. What I mean is that once you have horded enough gold to be able to take losses, then you can start dealing with blues and epics. These items WILL always sell. It might take a while, but because this is AoC and not WoW, your item won't expire from the Trader! Try to buy all the lower level blues and epics because people that get to level 80 always want to start new characters. These people will almost always make their new characters on the same server because they have their main character to help their new one. These are the people that you're trying to sell to. They have gold saved in their main characters and will buy the items they want for their new character. Items That Always Sell Well This is a list that I have tested and know works:

- Twink Items
- Leveling Items
- Gem's for Gem Cutting
- Raid Items
- Consumable Materials
- Purples
- Blues

Watch for the "typo" This is a sneaky strategy... People sometimes forget to type a "0" when their in a hurry to sell their item. I've seen some crazy prices on great items... I felt bad for the people making the mistakes but if YOU don't buy the item someone else will... Remember that!

Selling Tips

Sell When It's Very Busy We all know Friday is the busiest day of Age of Conan. This is when everyone starts selling items that they have amassed during the week but haven't had time to go to the Trader. This is also when everyone is undercutting each other! This is a natural thing that will happen in every economy. People flood the market and prices go down. Good for you!! The Psychology an AoC Buyer Notice how almost every item being sold at every store always ends with a "99". This can be a chocolate bar for .99 cents or gum for .49 cents, the point is that the brain of the buyer always sees the first number. This makes it seem as if it's being sold at a discount! Their brains want the item to be cheap to the believe it! Always sell your items for .95 - .99 at the end. Here's an example: 19g 99s. This really does work wonders! People will feel less guilty for buying an expensive item because its prices in a lower bracket even though its only by a few silver!

Stack Your Items (When a patch that fixes the stacking glitch comes out, right now the trader doesn't show the quantity, so only sell one at a time until then) WARNING: DO NOT STACK ANY ITEMS IN THE TRADER RIGHT NOW. AS OF JUNE 6, 2008 THE TRADER DOES NOT SHOW THE BUYER THE QUANTITY OF THE ITEM BEING SOLD. WHICH MEANS THAT SOMEONE CAN BE SELLING 30 SILKS FOR 1G AND IT JUST SHOWS 1 SILK FOR 1G?

Cake Mania - Hot Game Fun For Everyone

What's one of the hottest games around?

Are you looking for fast-paced Arcade-style game fun?

Here's the video game that everyone is playing or talking about playing -- Cake Mania.

A multi-level game that's family friendly with lots of challenges to keep everyone busy just having fun.

The game is set up like this

A big - bad - mean Mega Mart store (boo!) has moved in and taken over the family bakery run by our friend Jill's grandparents. Well Jill isn't going to stand by while the Mega Mart bad guys turn their family bakery into just another chain type bakery that doesn't care anything about their customers.

Secret Weapon Time

Our friend Jill is actually the secret weapon because Jill really knows how to make yummy cakes just the way customers like them.

So Jill sets up her own bakery locations where she can serve up her tasty cakes and make enough money to buy back her grandparents bakery -- I guess that'l show those meanies at the Mega Mart store.

Now the Cake Mania fun begins

Not one, not two, not three but four locations. Jill puts together four bakeries in exotic locations and starts baking the best custom cakes in the history of custom cakes.

But will that be enough to satisfy her customers?

Jill's customers are lots of fun, but they want their custom cakes just right and they want them fast.

Cake TV to the rescue

While customers wait for their cakes, Jill turns on Cake Mania TV. But can she remember each customer's favorite TV channel?

Faster, Faster, Faster

The faster Jill serves her cakes, the more money she makes.

So Jill makes up-grades to her bakeries. More ovens, more frosting stations, more microwaves. Faster, faster faster.

More Challenges

Can Jill remember what kind of cake each customer likes? Can she remember the frosting and the cake toppers? And what about those special holiday cake orders? There are even surprise customers to keep things really fun.

Imagine the fun with over 45 levels of fast-paced play to challenge everyone.

You'll love the colorful arcade style look of the Cake Mania game and you'll want to better your score and make more play money every time you play.

Are you looking for some fast-paced Arcade-style game fun?

Then play the video game that everyone is talking about -- Cake Mania.

Have fun.

The 10 Worst Traits of a Nintendo-Made Game

Nintendo does some dumb stuff in their games on a consistent basis. I keep intros short on a consistent basis. Enjoy.

10. Animal Slaughter on a Grand Scale is Okay

So you're standing there minding your own business and a turtle comes waddling up to you. If you're a sane human being, you just watch it go by on its merry little way or pick it up and try to feed it dirt or something. If you're a Nintendo character, however, you stomp on that little terrorist's head and then kick his dead, lifeless corpse at his friends and kill them too! It doesn't end there. Innocent alligators in Donkey Kong get hit with barrels until they die of blunt force trauma (all because they're between DK and his bananas). If you come upon a bear cub in Poke'mon, you better dragon-kick that sucker in the melon until he passes out or you won't be able to fit him in your little apple-sized container. Samus is the sole reason that some species of bats are extinct. The animal crossing guy puts live fish in his pants and laughs as they die of suffocation! The list goes on and on, getting only worse. The atrocities committed in the average Nintendo release would make a PETA member's head explode. Disgusting.

9. Voice Acting (or lack thereof)

Everyone knows those few, sad little sound files. Mario jumps and he w00ts. Mario double jumps and he "wah"s. Mario triple jumps and it sounds like he just won the Kentucky lottery. Other than that you won't get too much out of everyone's favorite obese Italian. He's like some kind of overweight, spring-loaded caveman with a disturbing sense of fashion. And when he DOES speak actual words players are confronted with the serious consideration of whether or not to fill their own ears with silly putty to escape the helium-fueled horror. There are moments when I just want to uppercut that voice actor in the kidney, as seen in "SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPER MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARIO GAAAAAAAAAAALAXY!!! WOOOOOOOHOOOO!"

The intro to that game alone probably makes at least 1 out of 3 respectable adults return it immediately.

Link, Samus, and Donkey Kong, on the other hand pretty much keep to themselves. In fact, when asked a question they'll just stare down the other person until they continue the conversation un-fazed. At least Link and Donkey Kong grunt or scream in pain every once in a while. Samus is some kind of deaf-mute. And what if she sneezes in that helmet? How sick would that be?

8. Spontaneously Combusting Defeated Bosses

As if gigantic octopuses, massive screaming robot pterodactyls, one-eyed spider monsters, and overgrown evil vegetation as boss characters
weren't weird enough, they all have a really strange way of cashing out. I can't for the life of me figure out why kicking coconuts at a giant octopus in Super Mario Galaxy would cause it to EXPLODE. I've heard of allergic reactions, but that's ridiculous. Gohma in The Legend of Zelda does the same thing. All I did was hit it in the eye with a slingshot and a midget sword! Isn't there a Visine for that?! These musings bring me to my next complaint, however.

7. Hindu Bosses

Apparently ALL of Nintendo's developers are led by people who believe in reincarnation. "Oh look, I get to fight the Phantom Link again... I was really rusty on my volleyball skills since the last time I fought him was 30 MINUTES AGO. Oh joy it's Bowser again! This time he HOPS BEFORE HE SHOOTS FIREBALLS!! OH SWEET MOTHER OF MOSES, HE'S THROWING POINTY OBJECTS INNACURATELY!

I could do a three hour rant on Metroid Prime: Hunters. You had to suck at life to ever lose to one of the other hunters, and there were literally only two bosses that you fought about 6 times EACH. So much of the code for that game was copy-pasted that it was more reminiscent of a Kotaku article than a game.

6. Almost No Plot, But Still Has Cut Scenes

Games don't HAVE to have a story. I recognize that. But when the plot of the game I'm playing is THEPRINCESSGOTKIDNAPPEDBYTHEBIGMIS-SHAPENDINOSAURGOGETSOMESTARS (See next point) I don't want to see cut scenes. Especially not ones of the entire universe exploding or of Mario getting a kiss ON THE NOSE after all the crap he just went through. And don't even get me started on Fire Emblem. Those cut scenes don't even make sense. Just write "SEE PLOT OF FIRE EMBLEM 1-9" and start the fight.

PS - Your Rival being the leader of the Elite Four was the lamest and most predictable plot twist I've ever seen. I hate you, Game Freak.

5. You lost your Power Suit/Princess/Bananas!!!

Almost every Nintendo game starts out the same. The hero/heroine is standing around, just chillin', and ALL THE SUDDEN some mushroom-headed/furry-butt/pointy-eared homie comes bobbin' out with the worst news possible. It doesn't matter if Link has saved Zelda 37 times. That chick keeps getting Natalie Holloway-ed out the castle. Same with Mario's story. Bowser doesn't even have a real REASON to kidnap Peach, unless he wants to make some kind of human/dinosaur baby with her (and I'm fairly confident that THAT wouldn't even work. I mean, I'm no doctor, but sweet mercy)

Donkey Kong's quests don't even BEGIN to make sense. It's BANANAS. They grow on trees, man. They're everywhere. But that punk goes running off to a sure death anyway. Good stuff, Nintendo writers, good stuff. The worst of the lot is the Mario Party series, though. Somehow, they manage to give a quick, 30 second explanation for why these guys are playing a board game (they're saving the world). As if the game itself wasn't bad enough...

4. Increasingly Bad Supporting Cast Over Each Iteration

Waluigi... Tatl and Tael... Lanky Kong... I'm sure that at some point in development of their respective games, somebody thought that these fools would a good idea. And then you see them. Waluigi is the most anorexic and badly groomed character I've ever seen. Tatl and Tael are like Navi, but even more obnoxious. And Lanky Kong... I'll be danged if Lanky Kong isn't some kind of sick riff on retarded kids. That's messed up, Nintendo. You've got a special spot in Hell for that.

3. Mind-Blowingly Fluctuating Difficulty

So I'm cruising through Mario Galaxy (Which I reference an obscene amount of times in this list), not having any real problems. Sure, there's a level or two that I have to retry a couple times, but besides the random boss, nothing is really too demanding. All the sudden I get to the Dreadnought Galaxy Purple Coin Challenge. I capitalized that because it's the single hardest thing I've ever had to do in a game. I spent THREE HOURS redoing and redoing that thing and STILL DIDN'T GET THE STAR. Your aim with the Wiimote has to be better than O.J. Simpson's aim with a knife if you even want to stand a chance. It was totally out of the blue and about 10 times as hard as the final level and boss fight. Thanks, Mario, for warping my mind. (I did eventually beat it, btw) Oh, and the Elite Four in Poke'mon? I get that it's the final challenge or whatever but I mean REALLY. You suck at that game if you ever get a game over screen before that point, but if you don't spend FOREEEVER leveling up before that you're just straight outta luck. That was probably the worst part about the 90's for me.

2. No Real Co-Op EVER

How many children around the world have the complexion of a dead polar bear because they spent 43 and a half straight hours playing the new Zelda game indoors and alone? The number of kids who are now friendless because they discovered Super Metroid at a young age is probably in the quabahatrillions. Something must be done to introduce these kids back to the concept of FRIENDS. Co-op mode, maybe? Nah. Co-Star mode will do just fine, won't it Nintendo? WON'T IT!?!? Until Brawl, with its supposedly good 2 player adventure mode, those kids have just had to be friendless, and hate see-saws.

1. DELAYED

Animal Crossing: Wild World
Mario Kart Wii
Super Smash Bros Brawl (LIKE SEVEN TIMES)
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Pretty much every game involving a Zelda character ever

That's just a short list off the top of my head of Nintendo games that were announced for a certain date, and then delayed right when anticipation was at its highest. Basically, if Nintendo announces a release date for a game, that day can be freed up on your schedule because NOTHING is going to happen then. 5 million Smash fans cried themselves to sleep every time Brawl got delayed. As such, I think November 3rd should be national "Hate Reggie Fils-Aime Day"... where everyone on the planet posts a Youtube video of themselves crying onto their own keyboards until it they get an electrical shock from the damaged equipment strong enough to knock them out until at LEAST February 2nd, because it's coming out then, right?
