CONSOLE REVIEW: GP2X (sorta off topic)
The GP2X is a Korean-made, Linux-based handheld that shares many
features with the PSP. In some cases, the GP2X dances circles around
the PSP. But the GP2X is not for everyone. It is not the most
accessible handheld — it takes some tinkering to get things working the
way you want.
The history of the GP2X is convoluted to say the least. GamePark, a
Korean company, released the GP32 in 2001. The company split because of
"differences in philosophy," and thus GamePark Holdings was created.
GamePark is planning on going toe-to-toe with Sony and Nintendo with
the release of the XGP and XGP Mini, set to launch this year. GamePark
Holdings, with the original GP32 design team, released the GP2X to keep
with the goals of the GP32 audience.
