that's teh awesome thing about the psp and the ps3 is how you can buy your own memory drive and just plug it in. For my psp I got a sandisk 4gig memory stick.. put a whole tmnt season on psp rocks.

i love how you can put any hard drive on the ps3 unlike the 360 lol.

overprice for a 20 gigs.

Anyways, Psp video 9 2 came out in the end of March so I finally took the time to download the new PSP video 9 program. Much better, it can finally allow you to convert your videos to 720x480 the maximum resoultion but expect a huge file size. Be warn, get a 1gig or higher before accomplishing this feat. I mean if you wanna convert a dvd, this is wise.

Also, the developer who made PSP video 9 has several other converters for the 360, wii and ps3 as well. The wii doesn't deserve one becuase it's crap when it comes to video. It has the worst converter due to huge sizes.

How nintendo designed the movie format is nuts, they should just release a new firmware that allows you to play any movie format. The 360 can do that almost.

I've bought myself "Jak and Daxter" a little while ago, which I'm enjoying quite a bit (the camera makes me feel sick if I play for too long, however). I'm thinking of buying the two sequels that follow it. My question is this, however - does the camera improve in these sequels? I know for sure I'm going to buy these games, but I would like to know before I buy them if they have the same camera which makes me sick while playing the original game.

the trilogy is worth playing through. I enjoyed Daxter on the psp and it's quite good. Get them because they are really cheap.


The camera I think has improved. Been a while since I played the series.

must be exciting for the psp to win for once. I can sit back and enjoy it now for once.

http://www.pspfanboy.com/2007/05/10/...psp-rerelease/

with this we now have the following upcoming games

god of war
final fantasy 1 remake
final fantasy 2 remake
star ocean 1+2 remake
kingdom hearts (possible)
castlevania Dracula Chronicles X
Final fantasy 7 Crisis Core
Dissidia: Final Fantasy
monster hunter freedom 2
devil may cry

for once the psp fans like me will actually get some decent support for once.. Not bashing the ds at all but the ds has had some great games but the psp needs some loving here and there.

Oh btw, to the one that wanted Winx Club on psp, it got a horrible review but it is your choice if you wanna buy it.

Great, we are all doomed to the hands of Sony...

The Empire Strikes Back - Sony's Gamerday

(I stole this post from another forum)

In short, Sony just put on a pimp ring and started slapping, because their lineup looks killer, and guess what--it's almost all first and second party stuff.

Post One: More to Follow
This year on PlayStation 3:

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (Also known as "Naughty Dog Runs Next-Gen"): In what was near-unquestionably the game of the show, Naughty Dog's Uncharted is what next-gen is all about. These shots are from the in-game engine. The HUD disappears when you don't need it. Absolutely gorgeous and apparently a blast to play.




LittleBigPlanet: The game that caught everyone by surprise a few months ago alongside Home at GDC 2007. It was shown and playable at the event, and is looking quite good. Some new information regarding customization has come out.




Heavenly Sword: Ninja Theory's much-anticipated game was at the show. It looks and plays excellently. Definitely not "God of War with a Woman", despite a few similarities.




The Eye of Judgment: The game is actually looking pretty fun. I'm hoping that the other high-profile releases don't totally drown this game out.

GRAW2: GRAW2 has unfortunately been delayed on PS3, back to August, most likely. However, the game was very much playable, and by all accounts, this has turned out to be a good port on Ubi Soft's part. The framerate is apparently very steady.




Rainbow Six: Vegas R6:Vegas was at the show. It's still on schedule, evidently, but it needs some tightening up in the framerate area. Basically, the typical Ubi Soft port job. It's a shame, since GRAW2 is shaping up so well.



SOCOM: Confrontation: This may be the big surprise of the show. The game has only been in development for five months total. Basically, it's gone back to the franchise's roots in SOCOM and SOCOM 2, so there's no vehicles. The game is both a PSN and Blu-ray title on the console. The first map shown was Crossroads from SOCOM 2, which is one of the most popular ones ever. It's also fueling speculation that this is a "Greatest Hits" version of SOCOM, featuring the most popular maps, redone for PlayStation 3 and up to 32 players on all of them. Oh yeah, Zipper Interactive isn't doing the game, either. (All shots are in-game):






I would strongly suggest viewing this trailer in high-definition.
How you like them apples?

Folklore: My admiration of this title is both well-known and now justified. Directed by the Shin Megami Tensei creator, Folklore is a game that's looking fantastic. You capture the souls of monsters that you fight by shaking them to death and drawing them in with the Sixaxis. You know it's awesome.




Warhawk: You all know the drill by now. Warhawk is an online-only multiplayer game developed by Incognito. There's an open beta on May 24, and it was revealed that the game will be sold on the PSN as well as on Blu-ray. The Blu-ray version of the game is shipping with a Bluetooth headset. Not a bad little extra.





Pain: This is a highly unique PSN title. Using ragdoll physics, you're given a character and a giant slingshot inside various locales. The object of the game is to inflict as much pain and suffering on the poor fellow as possible. You know it's awesome as hell. (Offscreen pictures, not sure who to credit):






Lair: Lair was actually playable at the show, and the early word out is that it's fantastic. The gameplay uses the Sixaxis to tilt and control your dragon while the face buttons control your character on top of the dragon. We don't have screenshots just yet, but you can certainly enjoy this new trailer, with actual, gorgeous gameplay shots in it.

Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction: Ratchet and Clank was also playable on the floor, and it's actually looking incredible as well. The game is slated for release this fall.

I tip my hat to Sony. They actually got me excited.

Thanks for posting the biggest pictures ever. I think my Firefox killed itself.

Good pictures, though. Kudos to Sony for trying to do something.

Man all they focus on is graphics. How about something new. I like Pain looks like a few flash games I've played. "Toss the guy see how far he gets!" Can't wait to pay 60 bucks for that.

The other games just look like the same crap I've picked up a game controller. FPS, RPG, third person shooter, third person fighting. Yay...

Gaming is really dry now. All they do is make fancy graphics and there you go.
