What's a good DUNGEON CRAWLER game for the PSP without cutesy characters?

I am looking for something in the D&D/Ultima vein to play on my PSP. I like the turn-based dungeon crawlers the best, but it's not required. The problem is that the ones I have seen have these Saturday morning cartoon characters with giant eyes. And it's just not appealing to me.

I have never played the Final Fantasy games because the ones I have only seen have these cutesy Disney characters running around in the screen shots. And it just spoils the mood for me. Maybe there are FF-type titles for the PSP with something more "dangerous" flavor to the characters you play (and I don't mean the interstitial animations)?

If the FF series is really *that* great, and everyone who answers here recommends them, I guess could get over it. But I'd rather play something that looks cool like Diablo II or Castlevania.

In short, gameplay and addiction factor really is more important to me. But I just don't like the look of the games I have seen.

Would love some suggestions!

The PSP has it's own D&D game. Look that up, since you really like those games. You can also try Untold Legends: The Warrior's Code, Dungeon Explorer, or Dungeon Maker.

Final Fantasy has never really had "Disney-like" characters, the only ones close enough are the mascots. With your way of thinking on the series, I don't think I can recommend you with any titles for that. FF1 and 2 stick with 2D Graphics. Final Fantasy Tactics is obviously a Tactics game, and the story is much darker than most others in it's franchise (political and religious controversy in the game). Crisis Core is a pretty good action-RPG game, though made through milking the FFVII name. If the "Disney" characters alone put you off, you're missing some worthwhile games that you could like.

Sorry for the long paragraph on Final Fantasy.

Gasoline engines have the advantage over diesel in being lighter and able to work at higher rotational speeds and they are the usual choice for fitting in high-performance sports cars. Continuous development of gasoline engines for over a hundred years has produced improvements in efficiency and reduced pollution.

The carburetor was used on nearly all road car engines until the 1980s but it was long realised better control of the fuel/air mixture could be achieved with fuel injection. Indirect fuel injection was first used in aircraft engines from 1909

, in racing car engines from the 1930s, and road cars from the late 1950s.[16] Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) is now starting to appear in production vehicles such as the 2007 (Mark II) BMW Mini. Exhaust gases are also cleaned up by fitting a catalytic converter into the exhaust system.

Clean air legislation in many of the car industries most important markets has made both catalysts and fuel injection virtually universal fittings. Most modern gasoline engines also are capable of running with up to 15% ethanol mixed into the gasoline - older vehicles may have seals and hoses that can be harmed by ethanol. With a small amount of redesign, gasoline-powered vehicles can run on ethanol concentrations as high as 85%. 100% ethanol is used in some parts of the world (such as Brazil), but vehicles must be started on pure gasoline and switched over to ethanol once the engine is running. Most gasoline engined cars can also run on LPG with the addition of an LPG tank for fuel storage and carburettor modifications to add an LPG mixer. LPG produces fewer toxic emissions and is a popular fuel for fork-lift trucks that have to operate inside buildings.

Ethanol, other alcohol fuels (biobutanol) and biogasoline have widespread use an automotive fuel. Most alcohols have less energy per liter than gasoline and are usually blended with gasoline. Alcohols are used for a variety of reasons - to increase octane, to improve emissions, and as an alternative to petroleum based fuel, since they can be made from agricultural crops. Brazil's ethanol program provides about 20% of the nation's automotive fuel needs, as a result of the mandatory use of E25 blend of gasoline throughout the country, 3 million cars that operate on pure ethanol, and 6 million dual or flexible-fuel vehicles sold since 2003.[17] that run on any mix of ethanol and gasoline. The commercial success of "flex" vehicles, as they are popularly known, have allowed sugarcane based ethanol fuel to achieve a 50% market share of the gasoline market by April 2008.[18][19][20]

The first electric cars were built around 1832, well before internal combustion powered cars appeared.[21] For a period of time electrics were considered superior due to the silent nature of electric motors compared to the very loud noise of the gasoline engine. This advantage was removed with Hiram Percy Maxim's invention of the muffler in 1897. Thereafter internal combustion powered cars had two critical advantages: 1) long range and 2) high specific energy (far lower weight of petrol fuel versus weight of batteries). The building of battery electric vehicles that could rival internal combustion models had to wait for the introduction of modern semiconductor controls and improved batteries. Because they can deliver a high torque at low revolutions electric cars do not require such a complex drive train and transmission as internal combustion powered cars. Some post-2000 electric car designs such as the Venturi Fétish are able to accelerate from 0-60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.0 seconds with a top speed around 130 mph (210 km/h). Others have a range of 250 miles (400 km) on the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) highway cycle requiring 3-1/2 hours to completely charge.[22] Equivalent fuel efficiency to internal combustion is not well defined but some press reports give it at around 135 miles per US gallon (1.74 L/100 km; 162 mpg-imp).

Pelagic birding from Cape Town

Setting off at first light for Cape Point and the pelagic seabird mix beyond must surely rank as one of the all time highlights in any birder's life. Dawn unfolds into a spectacular array of colours and the sunrise itself over the magnificent Hottentot Holland Mountains is an unforgettable experience. Add to this the awe and rugged splendour that Cape Point demands as you round the south-western tip of Africa and you have the start to a perfect day.

All around skeins of low-flying cormorants criss-cross the sea ahead punctuated here and there by plunge diving gannets and an assortment of terns. Not far off the first of many petrels careens into view while shearwaters trace the unfolding contours of the incoming swells.

Further out as the Peninsula recedes into the distance the first albatross of the day cuts across the bow on fixed wings before arcing overhead to double back across the wake in effortless flight.

Yet it is the distant sight of a trawler retrieving its net that really ignites the excitement as seabirds wheel and plummet in seemingly endless profusion in a frenzy of feeding activity. Close up views and photographic opportunities abound as a wide variety of species clamour for scraps within a few meters of the boat. From diminutive storm petrels skittering about in bat-like flight to scattered rafts of petrels, gannets, shearwaters and petrels it is action all the way until we turn for home.

Indeed it is a seabird extravaganza spiced up by ever present possibility of a ‘rarity' and a complementary array of whale, dolphin, sea lion, sun fish and other lucky sightings to complete the day.

KEY SPECIES:

Sooty, Cory's*, Great, Manx Shearwaters*, White-chinned, Spectacled, Pintado, Soft-plumaged, Great-winged, Northern and Southern Giant Petrels, Shy (White-capped), Atlantic and Indian Yellow-nosed and Black-browed Albatrosses, Wilson's and Euro Storm Petrels*, Arctic*, Pomerine* and Sub-Antarctic Skuas plus the opportunity of a Royal or Wandering Albatross or other infrequent rarities off the SA coast.

* Summer Sightings

Booking procedure:

Book your Cape Town pelagic birding trip and accommodation through Avian Leisure: Our self catering apartments in Simon's Town are ideally located for access to the Simon's Town harbour, the departure point for pelagic birding in Cape Town

Scheduled Cape Town pelagic trips run on most weekends but due to popularity, particularly in the winter months, are booked up well in advance. It is advisable to book early. We can also arrange charter trips at dates which suit you which are cost effective for 4 people or more. All trips are weather dependent and the trip will go ahead on the best day of the 2 assigned dates. You must therefore be available for both days with a Cape Town birding day tour as a workable option for the ‘other' day.

2-Day Weekend Land and Pelagic Birding Special :

The perfect 2 day weekend is to combine your Cape Town pelagic birding trip with a day's land-based birding in Cape Town, either with a bird guide booked through Avian Leisure to help you sight as many birds as possible, or on a self-drive basis. Either way we will help you to plan your birding excursion to ensure you have a safe and successful day.

3-Day Land and Pelagic Birding and Sharks Special:

With 3 days available in Cape Town, book a shark trip through us for the 3rd day: Between June and September, the shark viewing in Cape Town (False Bay) is unsurpassed: this is the only area in the world where guests not only have the chance to cage dive but also observe Great white sharks breaching and hunting seals.

Who was the first Dallas Cowboy starter in an All-Pro game?

1) what year?
2) position?
3) what other distinction did he have that year?
4) what team originally drafted him?

*Hint: this player never played for another team.

READ THE ENTIRE QUESTION BEFORE ANSWERING!
sorry football77, doran was not a STARTER. plus he played for another team. btw- his position was wr.
sorry myfrogdog, wrong answer. mr cowboy wasn't a starter until his second all-pro season in 1964.
sorry stonewall jackson, bob lilly was not an all-pro every year. he played 14 seasons, was all-pro 7 times, played in 11 all-pro games. true though, he was the first draft pick of the cowboys, but that was not asked.

ok one last guess how about don perkins
