    Default UMD Video

    I know this has been touched on in the past, but I wanted to bring it back up since I'm currently updating the list of UMDs and it's growing to large proportions. There are now over 100 UMDs out now, and some of them are really obscure and tough to track down. IMAX: The Magic of Flight? Who buys this stuff?

    So, should these be tracked in the guide? I originally thought so, but I'm beginning to have my doubts as more and more obscure crap is shoveled out the door.

    But this is propietary stuff that ONLY the PSP can play. If some other form of media comes out, then i'd say fugedabout it. But until then, Oob has to grumble some.

    We dont track cd's or dvd's because you can play those at home on whatever, they arnt restricted to just your DC or to your PS2. These are.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Actually I WANTED to track CD-i movies but haven't been able to convince my CD-i editor to tackle it. Yet.

    I'm pretty sure Mike Etler tracks the GBA movies.

    I've asked Dustin to go ahead and do the PSP UMD's if he's courageous enough to do so.

    These are system-specific items that belong in the database. Sorry, I'm a completist.

    Heck, if he doesn't want to do it I will. I can't get enough of these UMD things.

    I own the complete CD-i cartoon series from Der Löwen-König. 13 CD's (VCD's). Always 2 parts from the series on one CD-i.

    Its a nice cartoon series, the second part from Kimba the White Lion. All in german. Not sure if these CD-i's are released in USA.

    I shouldn't have a problem keeping up with it, but please do alert me if you notice any omissions. My research is pretty solid, as I've got a lot of sources to pool info from, but there could be something that slips by.
