NEVER EVER buy a card that is being sent from anywhere in ASIA, it will almost certainly be a fake rebadged card of a smaller capacity. Your're not the only one with problems with ebay. EVERYONE has problems with cards from ebay, its just that a lot of people don't realise its because the cards are fake. Because they aren't "that" valuable, they just throw them away and don't report it. Virtually ALL the memory cards on ebay are fake.

I am sure that we will both find our way like you said just don't give up hope, ya gotta have hope. Altair's Chronicles and Orcs & Elves are great, I think you will really get into both of them. The control scheme for O&E I think works well, you can use the buttons or the touch screen to control your movement. I use the buttons more than the touch screen for most everything, but the touch screen works well also and yes it is old school in the way that it plays and looks. Altair's Chronicles is cool, and I use the buttons for most everything except the puzzles in which case you must use the stylus. All in all I think both games are good. I have become stuck in Chains of Olympus I wonder if you could give me a hint? I am at the spot where Kratos can grab hold of like 3 different "arms" and then push them but when he lets go they return to the start position. There is also a long bridge walkway if you leave this spot that goes towards a large "face" statue type thing. Near the "arms" there is also a "dial" like thing in the floor that I think must work with the "arms" if you could please help me out as I don't know where to go next. Thanks UPDATE: Well I have figured out where to go from the "Steed Shrine" I just kept going past the shrine and went to the face and there is a wall to climb. I climbed the wall and well was on my way. I found this out by going to some "walkthroughs" on the web and was told by them to just pass it for now and I will come back to it later. Wow my first comment!

I keep trying to find the right path for me and I guess the main thing is that I don't give up hope. :) In the meantime I'll keep playing Chains of Olympus. If every PSP game was this good the handheld wars would be a bit more evenly matched right now! BTW, how is Altair's Chronicles and Orcs & Elves so far? I think I'm keen on O&A, it has an old school feel about it like Hexen or Elder Scrolls Arena, just unsure how well the control scheme works for it.
