Feb 14, 2007 Chili Con Carnage is an unexpected PSP classic. Registration and login are coming shortly. They're not quite ready yet. If you had an account with the old site, don't worry - it will be. A complete list of the cooking how-to's/tutorials that we offer you, the free users of the imperial internet. You're welcome, and it's good for you.
All this is tracked too. On the level select screen you can view all the top scores for each level, plus lesser stats like hats caught and the time it took you to finish. Different players can then compete for the best scores on a single PSP.
It's a small touch, but one that makes a huge deal of difference to the overall replay value. The main story won't take an awfully long time to play through, but then you've got the whole high score system, additional single-player modes and a couple of neat multiplayer games. A take turns score attack mode disguised as hangman is the mode most likely to get repeated play, but a deathmatch mode of sorts is also available if you can find someone else with a copy of the game.It's technically excellent too. Characters aren't made of too many polygons but there are often loads of them on screen, plus numerous explosions and lighting effects.
The frame rate bogs down now and again, but the lock-on control scheme means this is hardly ever a big problem.

Total Overdose might have gained little in the way of critical acclaim, but Chili Con Carnage deserves to be a big hit. As an action packed shooter it's far and away the best the PSP has to offer, and there's enough depth hidden away to keep you playing for months.

Featuring non-stop, over-the-top action, Ramiro comes equipped with a vast arsenal of weaponry along with signature super-spicy, gravity-defying special moves. Engage in gun frenzies against comical fiends such as mustached mercenaries, mutated super-Mamas and even killer exploding chickens. The action frenzy remains intense across seven unique 3D exotic locations from the trenches of a drug city to the heart of a dense jungle - an extensive varied landscape for a portable title. Three difficulty settings make the game appeal to casual shoot-em-up gamers as well as the most hardcore battle strategists, and the wireless multiplayer features of the PSP ensure that the game is enjoyable as a single player experience as well as.
