Portable Gaming Revolution

One of the reasons that the PSP is still doing so well in the Japanese market is due to Capcom’s Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G. It’s an immensely popular game, selling a whopping 2.4 million units in Japan since it’s release back in March 2008. That particular game never made it to the North American market, [...]

The hook-up is a little convoluted, but Sony announced earlier this week a way to use a PS3 dual-shock controller with your PSP, giving you both a second analog stick and rumble capabilities. You will need to hook your AV cable up to your TV and then connect your PSP (2000 and 3000 models only) [...]

LocoRoco first came out for the PSP two years ago and captured the attention of a wide range of both casual and hardcore gamers. Sony Computer Entertainment followed up with LocoRoco Cocoreccho! for the PS3 almost exactly a year later, leaving the PSP crowd out in the cold.  Fortunately, at this year’s Tokyo Game Show, creator Tsutomu Kouno [...]

There are some pretty interesting benefits to owning both Resistance 2 for your PS3 and Resistance: Retribution for the PSP. You’ll be able to connect the two systems together via a USB cable, choose to “infect” your PSP and gain all sorts of extra goodies for the game on your PSP. Once the systems are hooked up, navigate over [...]

  I never got around to checking out the first Patapon game for PSP when it was released earlier this year, but got to live it entirely through Lloyd as he quite frequently played it with the sound turned way up! Nevertheless, I found it quite catchy and still get the riffs stuck in my head from [...]

Sometime this fall (the date has yet to be announced), PSP owners in Japan will be able to connect directly to the PlayStation Store through their PSP’s without the use of either their PS3′s or computers. You will be able to use this feature, regardless of the version of PSP you currently have, but keep [...]

For those of you who may not have heard of this title as of yet, Everyday Shooter was originally released for both PS3 and PC and has gotten fantastic reviews everywhere for it’s incredible usage of music paired with a fairly basic shooter. It sounds fairly run-of-the-mill, but anybody who has played the game will be quick [...]

Earlier this month, I reported that a new edition in the Parasite Eve franchise would be making it’s way to both the PSP and mobile phones. I also promised that I would be forthcoming with any further news about the game, and here it is!   Square Enix’s director of the project, Hajime Tabata, had a few details to share. [...]

About I week ago, I posted news that the FCC had blown the cover of the PSP-3001. Finally, Sony has officially released all the information you could possible want to know about the upcoming release of the newly named PSP-3000. When compared to the previous model, the PSP-2000 (or PSP Slim), there is virtually no visual differences [...]

All of our footy fans out there will be interested to find out that as of this coming Sunday, August 17th, you’ll be able to download 45 minute clips of the highlights of the Barclays Premiership to watch on your PSP. Sky Sports has committed to airing 92 Live league games along with 242 “near-live” [...]

I’m going to point  out right at the beginning that this it NOT a re-design of the PSP, but rather a re-working of the PSP-2000, mostly on the interior of the unit. Looks like all Sony is doing with the 3001-model is try to reduce costs by using smaller and more efficient components. Supposedly, their [...]

  A new PSP-exclusive title has been announced by developer Stormregion. It will be a turn-based strategy game set in space called Mytran Wars. Not a lot of information is known as of yet other than it’s the 23rd century and humans will be pitted against aliens in their search for resources.  Stormregion are best known [...]
