PSP

[barnicle]

I picked up my PSP today and I must say its well worth it. Especially if your looking for more than a handheld gaming console. I cant wait to pick up a 1gb stick of memory then i'll be in business. so did anyone else pick it up? what games did u get? i picked up need 4 speed rivals.

Picked up mine on thursday morning and I too will admit that I was most impressed by Sony. I got Lumines and Metal Gear Acid. Had a 1 gig memory stick Duo PRO too, so it's all there. I will have Reveiws for Lumines, Metal Gear Acid, and The PSP up on the board soon.

We had a few posts here and a lil talk on whether the PSP is worth its high price along with some comparisons to Nintendos DS.

Im really looking fwd to a picture review.

Hey camari, is there a region free PSP out? I heard that there is. I did a little research and found that the games are region free but not the movies. I wah pick up one when i fly out this weekend and want to know.

Quoted post



yeah I did cause it's a reveiw. Aren't you supposed to check it over before it goes up on the main page?

You don't have to worry about being region free or not because you will be buying a North American machine. which will play Japanese games, but not japanese movies.

But why would you want Japanese UMD? :kakashi4:

I got online with the PSP today. I mean google and search find and display page. while it doesn't support java it does display frame. works pretty good so far. :kakashi4:

*Sunday update* I got on IRC with the PSP today and it works awesome so far. still limited to one server but the guy who put it together said it's only because it's still in demo phase. They included a vitrual querty keyboard also apart of the built in t PSP keypad. :kakashi4:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
tony hawks underground 2: remix
untold legends
twisted metal: head on
dynasty warriors
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
what i can basically say is its AMAZING

that DS doesnt have a chance

the graphics are amazing for a portable...

the resolution on the screen is amazing

movies play like a dream

sound is nice

the wifi works perfectly...no lag in games

the interface is also nice and has a more adult feel to it

other than the rectangular feel of the DS

i say: Nintendo has lost the war

ways, I thought it would be a while before i see these things in trinidad. But it seems i was dead wrong.

[Xecutiona]

well i want to kno how he gettin browsing....please tell me

all i doin is playin games now...it workin nice there tho

[camrachi-mishima]

That my friend, is a secret... LOL. no, it's mad simple. Configure the DNS IP in your wireless router to 67.171.70.72

The setup a second wifi profile on your PSP with the same DNS IP.

Fire up wipeout pure. Go to the downloads section, select the wifi profile with the DNS IP you put in and you will be zipped away to the magic of homebrew browsing on your PSP.

Here's a hint, make sure the Wifi power save feature is off and the browser moves faster. You can find it in your power option on the XMB. Enjoy. :kakashi4:

The PSP uses a special breed of Mpeg4 type files, and it would not display anything else. So here is my guide for getting movies on ya PSP easily.

You will need PSPVideo9 which can be found here;

PSPVideo9 (http://www.pspvideo9.com/pspVideo9_Install.exe)


PSPVideo9 is the best PSP software out there so far, since it will convert the files and place them on the PSP in the correct directory for you. When you open the program click on the setup tab (it’s a blue Cog), and change the settings to 320x240/29.97fps/768kbps/Stereo128k. this is the correct setting.

Now, PSPVideo9 does not accept all types of files. So you will need another program to convert the movie files into a certain type (.avi), which PSPVideo9 will accept and encode into PSP resolution.

I use this one, very simple, very easy;

Easy Video Encoder (http://www.sofotex.com/cgi-bin/ls/jump.cgi?ID=5315)

It's all simple and easy, enjoy your vids! Please, No PR0N in public!

Oh Metal Gear Ac!d reveiw up, Wipeout Pure and Lumines is on it's way.
