Title: Gizmondo, the new tiger handheld

Look at this, a tiger handheld that doesn´t look like complete shit. I don´t trust tiger, but the games on this thing look pretty awesome, and the device has many many posibilities.

This does indeed look impressive.  I don't trust them either, especially not at over $400, but it looks really, really nice.

BTW, this thing even has a GPS receiver in it.  Take a look at this game:

Imagine that on a 2,9 inch 320x240 screen. In other words: Those pictures are surely a scam.

Good point.  They are at 640x480, so other than the one 2D shooter screenshot in the middle, they are indeed fake.

Don't have good memories with Tiger, R-zone was crappy lcd (ok anybody wants to buy a new R-Zone with Zorro) and the Game.com was also crap.

It is a different Tiger and not the Tiger currently owned by Hasbro and formerly known as Tiger Electronics. English: not the folks responsible for nifty handhelds in the 80's and the abomination known as R-Zone. Personally I liked Game.com though, -great- solitaire...lol
