Well, I had a PSP. Some software update killed it. Told me to call Technical Support and I kept trying to get out of what it was in.
So... Idoit here just took it into her room and removed the battery and then was like "HAHA! No more message from you... HAHA!" Then, I tried to restart it and it wouldn't. My boyfriend promised me a new one but I don't want a new one. I'll buy it on my own when I start my job eventually... :whistling:

There is a new model coming out with a hard drive(60Gb at least) so it will finally make it into the media player market where alot of people thought it should have been in the first place.

Homebrew is the effort to make 3rd party firmware and use it to allow better functionality, it lets you do things like play PSX,2 games and flash games.

What's so funny about flash games if you can play games like daxter, GTA vice city stories, Tekken, and so on ...

You can get things like old PC games now in flash Doom and Quake the first half life you can play a flash version of now, its not just flash games youve got all your old PSX games you just get them off your disk and put them on a pen, ive got alot of great games for PSX that if i had a PSP i would certainly play more than any actual PSP games.

Yeah, but maybe that will be possible in the future. The new update is so great :whistling:
And if I want to play Half Life i prefer the PC, but that's my opinion

Well i would rather play on the PC too but that's not really the point you are using a PSP not a PC, its already possible that's what home-brew is all about playing flash/home made/PSX games and removing restrictions.

Just released good example of benefits http://www.qj.net/Be...pg/49/aid/78218 , i should also mention it does everything the sony firmware does it just does more.

I have had a PSP for a while and really don't play it much anymore except for a single game. Literally the single reason i have not sold my PSP yet is the mere fact Lumines, in my opinion, is the greatest puzzle game made to date. I never get sick of it. It's such a splendid game...i can't get rid of PSP anything just because of this game haha.
