View Full Version : PSP: I'm submitting
So, I calculated how much I make next week, and.. ooh, wow. <3
So anyways, I have two options: filling out my gamecube library completely, or buying a PSP. The thing is, I really like the PSP, and it looks hot as hell. But I could care less for the games on it.
Persuade/Dissuade me. I'm leaning towards Metal Gear Ac!d or Lumines, but I don't know. I usually like non-turn-based Japanese games, and I'm a bit iffy about replay value here.
What about Hot Shots Golf? I'm a huge fanboy of Mario Golf. Is it any different?
What are some of the things I can do with a PSP?

I'd just wait until there's some games you're actually interested in before buying the PSP. Besides, there could, possibly (anything is possible..), be a price drop between now and then...

Lumines, Metal Gear Acid, Hot Shots Golf, Ridge Racer, and Wipeout Pure are all excellent titles for the PSP. There are a few others as well, but I've mainly played those 5.
If you're really into titles like Rez, Gitaroo Man, Space Channel 5, etc. then some would consider Lumines worth the price of admission alone. It's really awesome.
Metal Gear Acid is kind of a love it or hate it. I love Metal Gear, I love strategy games, so I love Metal Gear Acid, simple as that.
You can't go wrong with Hot Shots Golf, and if you're into racing games then you must check out Ridge Racer and/or Wipeout Pure.
If you want to go beyond games, you can pick up a 512MB or 1GB san disk memory duo and download a crap ton of music and pictures, or a few hours of TV shows, movies, etc. It's a great little device to have if you're willing to dish out the money.

Awesome. Buy a PSP because it looks good and just stare at it. Sweet, mind if I join you? We can wirelessly connect and stare at our PSPs together!
If you don't like the games, don't waste your money on the hardware. PSP is not a collectors item, there's no reason to own it if you don't plan on playing it.
You paid $199 for that Gamecube you have, and now you want to pay $249 for a system with games you don't care for? Why? It's a waste of money.
I think you would be better off saving your money rather than buying a PSP. Once you buy the PSP, a couple games, a bigger memory card so you can realize it isn't a MP3 player, maybe waste some money on buying a movie just to say you've tried it, and you just spent a lot of money. Better off saving it for an Xbox 360. At least then you can sit around and change faceplates all day.
Seriously, $250 is ridicules. If you really wanted it, I'd say buy it. If not, wait. It'll drop in price. I want one too every time I go into a store, but I'm not spending $250 on a system that suffers from poor battery life and defective square buttons only because it has a big screen and pretty graphics. I'm more than sick of Metal Gear, and Hot Shots Golf. It's the reason I don't play my PS2. The only game that even peaked my interest is Death Jr, and I'll grab it for a couple bucks off eBay in a couple years.
Xbox 360 is coming out this fall, and despite how much I make fun of it, it will be the best system, hands-down for a year after its launch. I'll be playing my games in 720p over the best online service consoles have ever seen. If I'
m going to spend my money on a game system with horrible games, I'd rather go Xbox 360, not PSP.
If you want a PSP for its games, prolly should wait. if your planning on running emulators or anything. might want to thinka bout picking it up before they up the ones they're selling in stores to a higher version, if they havnt already.
Gekko loses. I bought it.
Somewhere, Kyuzo is applauding rautiously.
I bought it with Lumines, a 256mb card, a USB cable, and a leather pouch.
Anyways, thanks Darkmaster and those of you whom tried to dissuade me. I do feel kind of bad about dropping $500 canadian, but hell, when you make a lot of money, don't own a car, and you have no loans to pay off, it really isn't that much.

Hot Shots Golf is my personal favorite PSP game so far... By far...
Yeah though you still prolly should've at least waited :p
But Null as for the emulator comment, the only PSPs that can run any kind of emulators out there right now are ones running on the firmware version 1.0 (I think is the one)... And unfortunately, the only ones that could possibly have that are unupdated Japanese PSPs from around launch time...
all US PSPs come with version 1.1, or whatever, which has some kind of... thing in it... that does stuff... and won't allow it to play the emulators that are out...
But I've heard it's just a matter of time before someone gets around it, I'm keepin my fingers crossed...

But thats exactly my point. with each new version of firmware, its probably going to be harder to do. or at least take longer. the earlier version you have, the better chances you have of them making em work on yours.
1.5 will be cracked soon enough, sony released updates to 1.51 recently for a unknown 'security' fix. perhaps they know of a way people can make em run on 1.5's so they patched it. who knows. But i will never update my PSP unless i know they can run on the version im updating to.

I'm still hooked on Wipeout Pure and Darkstalkers. Star Wars Episode I, II, III are supposedly going to be released on UMD simultaneously with III's DVD release in about half a year.
And Gekko... do you own a PSP? The thing doesn't suffer from any type of battery life. It has the expected battery life of what a machine like this can handle. I've listened to my mp3's all throughout my sleep with it still playing in the morning... I have a lump sum of mp3's in there... albeit it'll be almost dead in the morning... but thats a lot of hours. Playing a game without it jacked in, I can get in a good 4 hours. And I hardly find myself playing portably for more than 4 hours..... and thats one thing people over exaggerate.... people think because it's not as lasting as a DS or GB, means it has sucky battery life. But who honestly plays portably for 10 hours straight? Aside from long flights, there'll be a time where you'll eventually charge the thing.
PSP has sufficient battery life....it doesn't suck. And there is a Pelican Extended Battery out there that runs on 3 AAA batteries, making it's battery life up to 30 hours.... and it is a rechargable battery pack. Think about that? It's only $40.00 too.

No, I don't own a PSP as I clearly stated in the post you're replying to. I have read plenty of tests from various sources, including PS exclusive magazines who say its battery life sucks, and they actually did the tests.
I'm not interested in using PSP as an MP3 player, it would be a very expensive downgrade. I would use it for playing games, and all the tests indicate the battery life is horrible. It might not be a big deal for you, if you play it sitting in your house where you're free to charge it at your leisure. I could go out and buy extended batteries, and I'm sure Sony is more than planning on capitalizing on their poor product by releasing their own extended batteries to try and suck more money out of their customers. Excuse me for expecting a PlayStation Portable to actually be portable. If you want to go out and buy a PSP for $249 and then go spend more money on a extended battery, be my guest. Again, sorry for thinking I should get what I paid for.
In Iraq, I killed hundreds of hours playing my GBA SP and Nintendo DS. You think sitting in an observation post outside a hostile city provided me a chance to charge the thing whenever I wanted? This isn't the Playstation Mini, it's the Playstation Portable, and until it becomes portable, don't expect me to buy it.
Anything else in the world and this would be an over-priced product with poor performance, but since it's a video game system, everybody worships the stupid plastic box and you're insane if you don't fall in love with a 4.3" screen. Give me a break.

I was interested in the PSP when it first came out, but after a while I can see myself becoming very bored with it if there are no stellar games (I don't think there are any, as goes for DS).
At least the DS offers the touch screen which offers some fresh gameplay experiences. PSP atm seems like a portable PSX/2, which isn't what I really want

Actually, I kind of regret buying a DS on launch. It's a cool portable, but right now there are very few games for it, and while there is a lot of stuff on the horizon, it's been collecting dust on my nightstand. I really wish Nintendo and Sony had just waited instead of rushing their two portables. Who knows, if they released them now, maybe both would have been substantially better, from a hardware and software standpoint.
Perhaps you should put your money towards a car rather than wasting it on new videogame consoles.
I use my parents' cars. Whenever I need to get somewhere, there's always one free.
It would be even more of a stupid decision. But let's not get into that.
I'm going out today to get either Ridge Racers or Hot Shots Golf. Lumines is really fun, but usually it takes a while for me to get in the drift of puzzle games. (I'm still not confident at Mr. Driller.)
Anyways, it's a hot piece of console. I'm loving it.

I think this the PSP is not your thing then. Because what most people overlook is the capability of the system. Many look at DS and GBA and compare their battery life to said PSP. But.... PSP's graphics... screen size.... resolution...... color depth.....are ALL a lot more powerful then the DS.... requiring more battery juice. That's why battery life with the PSP varies upon the type of activity your doing.
The PSP is perfectly portable... I don't always play it when it's plugged in... another miconception. But I don't find myself playing it portably for more than 4 hours.... that number is very irrational.
gekko
05-31-2005, 04:53 PM
It does require more battery juice, which is why Sony should've included a longer battery. It's not like they don't exist.
All you're doing is making excuses for the PSP's short battery life. Despite all the reasons you may come up with to why the battery life is shorter, and despite all the reasons why you may not use your PSP for more than 4 hours, the fact remains that the PSP has a short battery life.
You're right, the PSP is not my thing. I want a quality product for my money.
Gekko, we respect your opinion, but try not to come off as bitter.
Anyways, more about me! I was only half satisfied with Lumines, but I picked up Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee today, and I'm completely satisfied with it. Thanks to DarkMaster and DeathsHand for the recommendation on it, I'm really really happy. I'm a huge Mario Golf fanboy and now it's great to have a 3D golfer in the vein of it, actually portable.
Woo!

4 hours of battery life is enough for many people, but there are some of us who live in rural Canada, and I take 8 hour drives pretty frequently, and often longer ones as well. I don't want to only be able to play for a few hours, and then quit.
I disagree with gekko on PSP not being a quality product, because it is, but there should've been better battery life. Sure, it's more powerful than the DS, but DS having 2 screens to provides battery for... that's a LOT of juice.
I think it's cool that you decided on getting a PSP. I hope you enjoy yourself with it, and I'm jealous that you are playing Lumines and I'm not.

Just explaining my point more clearly, since it seems to be a little misunderstood...
By quality, I'm judging it as a portable gaming system. Just like any other product, it's judged differently depending on what type of product it is.
Portable products have to be judged on a few additional criteria than its stationary counterparts. Its size, battery life, and durability are now a factor, as well as other items that make it more useful as a portable product. Laptops are the same way. If it's heavy, big, doesn't have many outputs, only gets a couple hours of battery life, and has keyboards that are difficult to see in the dark and hardware that is easily broken when banged around, it will be graded accordingly. Even if it is the most powerful laptop ever made.
But feel free to still disagree with me.

You get what you pay for. In Japan the solo unit is $180 which isn't much more than the DS. We, the NTSC get a value pack, which is highly priced as it is.... is still a justified price. I'm PRETTY SURE if the unit came solo it'd be a mirror of Japan's $180 price.
$250 is expensive indeed, but a justified price. If you don't want to get all the extras don't get the PSP. But I know a lot of people who have said they don't need it, but in the end... use them.
No one wants a $180 PSP... and spend extra for a big memory stick duo if they really don't plan on using it as an mp3 player. The 32mb is a fine associate to it, and 32mb is very pricey..... seperately. Aside from Spider Man 2... they give you what you need. It's more of a Startup Kit rather than a Value Pack. But looking at the value pack price and saying it's an overpriced unit... is overlooking many things.
The $180 price tag is a lot more attractive, but thats the solo price point. Thats the price you should be looking at.

Until they release it at that price, we can't look at that, because I can't go into a store and buy a $180 PSP.
Also, are the memory cards required for saves? If so, at least a 32MB card would have to be included into the price

originally it required 2 mem sticks, but now theres a way to do it with 1. i havnt tried the one using just 1 mem stick yet, i wanted to get the basic part down first. wasnt really too hard. i'll try the 1mem stick method soon tho.
i just use a little USB stick, that has a empty slot in it. i slide the memory stick into that and plug it into usb, it works exactly like a USB flash drive would.
i think you can use the usb cable to connect the psp directly to the computer with the mem card inside that tho.

Wait wait wait Null... You have a Japanese PSP? :confused:
No, the 1.5 swaploit trick works on 1.5 PSPs, which is what all the North American PSPs are by default.
I downloaded the swaploit trick the second it came out and I am thoroughly satisfied with my PSP now. I'm finally finding time to play through Terranigma and Final Fantasy 6. It's totally, completely worth the price now.
The only problem I have is keeping my PSP in sleep mode. Apparently if you keep it in sleep mode while playing an emulator, you run the risk of corrupting your memory card. I back my data up every time I go out now.
And I guess the other problem is that SNES is choppy on some games for me. Like, Kirby Superstar is really.. unplayable due to the speed it runs at. Everything else is fine if you clock the right frameskip in, aside from music distortions. Null, they released a really, really good genesis emu yesterday and it works fantastically.
Have you tried changing your backgrounds Null? That's really cool.
Wait wait wait Null... You have a Japanese PSP? :confused:
If you have an American one, check the Firmware Version... If it's 1.51, them you must show me this emulator :>
unless you updated yours, you should have 1.5, not 1.51
and no dyne, i havnt tried the new backgrounds yet. Is there a way to save the current backgrounds the psp has? i dont want to be stuck without a way to get the original ones back on.
I'll have to try the gens emu next. im very happy they found a way tho for you to set the CPU on the PSP up to its full 333 mhz, sony stuck it at 222mhz cuz of the battery issue, but with emulators running off the mem stick, battery isnt much of an issue. so its nice to be able to run it at full power. altho im using that a bit sparingly incase they did something wrong and the psp doesnt like running at that.
i think they'll have the SNES games running perfect eventually. they need to optimize it a bit more which will help it gain power.
Couldn't answer you there. But why would something read on the memory card affect something on the BIOS? From what I've seen it's just a soft overlay on the background animation, not a full-on change. But I could be wrong.
I've run everything at 333 MHz so far, and nothing bad has happened. In fact, I'm still on the same battery charge from a few days ago. I've also listened to MP3s for two hours, and watched a 20-minute episode of Zelda. Also, a bit of RE: Apocalypse.
from what i read, it actually replaces the files for the background. i'll have to read up on that some more to see, maybe it doesnt effect the originals at all.
[EDIT]
omg, just tried the doom game, wow. im not exactly sure what that is, like a port of the PC version? its not an emulator of one of the consoles tho its its own game, runs extremly smooth, i'm quite amazed at that one, i hear that also have Quake. i shall now go in search of Quake. :)

Eh, I'm happy with my emus.
i've heard it freezes after a certain level. but thats about it. its neat to try tho. :)

Ok I have a question about the SNES Emulator...
When I play any game on it, it runs extremely slow... So I piddle with all the graphics and speed settings, and it tends to get a little more playable, but anytime anything happens in the game it starts running slooooow again, and when I enter new areas of the game the speeds and everything switch up, so I constantly have to change the settings.....
Uhhh is this how it is for everyone else with it? Or does Jesus just hate me?
give it a bit more time. same with a GBA one, they're going to eat up a bit more power from the PSP, and right now its only going to run i'd say at 80-95% power. they need to work on it a bit more, optimize it and improve the emulator, i believe it will be done and running very nicely, its just going to take a bit more time.

Yeah, it's different for different games. I find Claymates is about the speediest platform I'm playing right now.
Try these settings; they seem to work the best:
try these settings for SNES:
Transparancy: off
sound: 11112 hz or whatever the lowest one is
frameskip: 2+
333 mhz
graphics/sound settings: add about +.4, increase by +.1 if needed until you're satisfied

after reading up on it more, yes, it Perminatly replaces the original backgrounds. Altho i found the original backgrounds to download again, so its all good.
gunna try and make my own i think.
[edit]
and just tried that Genesis emulator and thats very very nice. cant wait till they get the SNES one up and running as well as that one already is. as well as a GBA one. :)
And im sure it wont be long before someone makes a Divx player for it now :) i can store my videos in better quality, lower space with divx, quit using thoes stupid converter programs. woo!

They are all 1.5s, and will be for a while. Until fall. This is confirmed.
Anyways, the one-card solution sounds great. I only did the swap about three times but this is great news.

I have to say, I say Phils PSP and it is one sexy piece of ass. Heavier than I expected, but hot ass nonetheless.
Id have sex with it. Watch out Phil. Watch out. I might sex it up.
But I think thats crazy awesome all the things you can do with it. The games, the movies, the music, the images, the Emulators....its almost orgasm enducing. I actually might get one once the price drops.

Well Typhoid, I read somewhere on GameSpot that the PSP will be selling solo units by Q4 2005.... to kinda balance the Xbox 360 launch.... although... might not do much, it'll raise eyebrows for those who want it now and waiting for a price drop.
Hey guys, the KXploit is supposedly out now. I'm going to go find it and I'll post a link if I do.
That means you only need one memory card now.

i aleady posted it was out the other day. hehe. :p
been using it past couple days, works very nicely, only problem is for every emulator or program in the momory stick menu, theres also gotta be a corrupt data one. just how it works.
And you dont even need th KXploit program, i f you have the other that converts it into memory stick 1 and memory stick 2... just rename memory stick 1's folder with a % after.
So say you had a NES emulator with the swap trick, and both folders were named NES on each memory stick....... rename MS1's to NES% then put them on the same memory card. thats how it works.
Then the best way i find to deal with the corrupt data issue. is if you put all the normal folders on first, then all the ones with the % in em 2nd. all the programs will be at the top of the list while the corrupt data ones will be at the bottom.

Wait wait wait, let me get this straight.
Swaploit's completely useless if you just add the MS1 to MS2 and add the %? All the problems are solved with one symbol?
yup. thats all the new program does. same as the old one, except adds a % and puts it on 1 mem card.
i was kinda pissed at him for making us wait an extra time when he coulda just announced that was all there was to it.
