    holy crap! a PSP thread!

    I actually searched for any PSP topics, but I guess they don't exist.

    Anyways...

    Yes, I bought a PSP a few days ago. This thing is pretty nifty. One reason I bought it is just really to have one. The other reason was the fairly big homebrew scene.

    As far as games go, I have:
    Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded (King of Dragons > you)
    Outrun 2006: Coast to Coast
    ATV Offroad Fury Pro
    Luminus

    A small but varied start.

    I really should have kept my firmware at a specific version, because I could have had an all in one mobile player for SNES, NES, GBA, N64, SMS/GG, and the like... But now I might need another game to assist with those efforts.

    All in all, I like it. Anyone else own one?

    If you can't post without pointing at least one of these out, then you have no reason to reply. These are all common knowledge. I still have and play my DS equally, so this doesn't need to turn into a sony/nintendo banterfest.

    I would really like to have a PSP again, mostly because it was just a bang up emulation machine, but also there were a few games I rather liked for it. I almost picked it up again when I saw that FF1, 2, and Tactics were coming out for it, but then I came to my senses and realized I had played all 3 of those games before, and I'm sick of giving Square my money.

    Get Mega Man Powered Up and Mega Man Maverick Hunter X. Good games. :O I have a PSP and it's quite nice. I should pickup Metal Slug Anthology for it some time. Can't wait for Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles to come out either. Not to mention I want the new PSP with TV out.

    Re: holy crap! a PSP thread!

    I just got around to reading about the PSPS&L. I original didn't think it was going to be worth the price, but at 200 bucks when (in one package deal) you get a game, an FG umd, and a 1gb memstick, it'll be too hard to pass up. source

    I was looking at MMPU and MHX, I should have gotten at lease one of them... I'll admit, I pretty much bought CCCReload for King of Dragons.

    Dracula X Chronicles is shaping up to look like one badass of a game, and it includes SOTN and the original Rondo of Blood? Yes plz.

    Re: holy crap! a PSP thread!

    I like my PSP. I don't play it nearly enough though. I have the Capcom Classics Reloaded, and I play Knights of the Round on it the most. I hadn't ever played King of Dragons until I got it, and it was pretty good as well.

    I also have Maverick Hunter X. It was the first game I got for it, and it was pretty bad ass. I really like the anime that it comes with.

    I can't get into Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops for the life of me. I don't know why I can't get into a Metal Gear game, but I believe its because the controls don't feel right. Almost like it moves too slow and not very accurately.

    I picked up Metal Gear Acid even though I hate card game video games, and it honestly wasn't too bad, though I never finished it.

    I also have Valkyrie Profile, which I picked up most recently. I hadn't ever played the original and I heard it was really good. I played through a little bit of it, and it seems alright, but I got involved with something else and haven't picked it up in awhile.

    I'm really looking forward to the FFT: Lion War and Castlevania games. FFT mainly because I'm not bringing my PS2 to Iraq this time, and I know that I'll want to play FFT while I'm over there, and I'm too lazy to get my PSX emulator working with Vista.

    Re: holy crap! a PSP thread!

    I just got around to downgrading my PSP firmware to version 1.50 so that I can use emulators on it, and it's a dream come true, carrying an NES and a slightly-less-than-full-power SNES with me wherever I go. It kinda makes me not want to get FFT and so forth, just because I'd have to upgrade my firmware.

    Re: holy crap! a PSP thread!

    if you use Snes9x for PSP, there's an option somewhere to overclock the cpu so SNES games run at full speed, at the cost of battery... i had gba games running on it too.

    then i was ignorant and for some reason upgraded to 3.03, which the only way after that is via a GTA LCS exploit (at this time).

    also, i hope you know once you do downgrade your firmware, Riverman, there's no going back up. I tried to re-update to 3.50 after 1.50, and it doesnt work.

    Didn't I hear a rumor they were making some kind of PSP you could hook up to your TV? I'm not too fond of the system but that would go a long way to justifying its cost...

    This and that SOTN game could make me buy one just sayin'

    If this really is the case, I may well consider it a fair price. As it is, I have a portable NES and SNES and a decent audio player all in one, and it can play Lumines and Untold Legends to boot. I'm happy.
