Oh, The PSP 0

by Adam Blue • Editorial

I briefly talked about the PSP in my previous post. The Slim models have TV output, but no bluetooth to allow use with a DualShock 3. I like that because it’s much easier and more comfortable to play games that way. With the PSP Go, I can do just that. Again, with the Slim models, I can play all UMD games and PSN store downloads. But playing games on that handheld just cramps my hands…it’s uncomfortable. Slim models allow custom firmware which allows you to play ISO’s. This was an idea I’d use to put all of my UMD’s on the PSP’s memory so I didn’t have to lug around said UMD’s. The PSP Go doesn’t have any hacks that allow for play with ISO’s. Also, there are only a limited number of PSP games on the PSN for the PSP Go, meaning, the Slims have the full library of games – not the Go. My plan was to buy the UMD and download the ISO for the Go.

This puts me in a tough spot. I can’t stand playing games on the Slim/Phat and with Bluetooth and form factor, I’d play more on my Go. But there’s less I can play. This is a universal paradox that is slowly destroying my brain. Let’s hope an exploit gets released soon that allows me to enjoy my library of purchased UMD games on the PSP Go. I still think the Go is better.
