An experiment at a secret research facility has gone catastrophically wrong. Daniel Lamb and Leo Kasper are the only surviving subjects. The Pickman Project will stop at nothing to hunt them down and stop the truth from getting out.
Demented screams echo around the dank asylum that has caged you for the last six years. You open your eyes. A white-coated body slumps to the floor through your shaking hands. A bloody syringe slips from your arm. Waves of confusion and paranoia crash over you. You have no idea who you are or how you got here.

Tales of Phantasia for the Playstation is almost here, guys, in English. After 2 months of work, we are proud to announce to you that the translation completion has passed the halfway mark. In other words, we have all of the Present, about half of the Past, and more than half of the Future completely translated. The hacking itself is complete and only a few bug fixes and some layout reworks remain for the in-game menus. As we’ve repeatedly stated, this patch will be fully compatible with real hardware on its first release, like my SOTN Italian translation was.

ChillyWilly has released a new version of his port of Doom for the PSP which also includes the shareware files so no need to buy your own copy if you dont own it already, full details follow:
Here's my conversion of ADoomPPC, one of the better DOOM conversions (for the Amiga). It's got a simple, decent gui that runs before you start the game which allows you to set most of the major DOOM settings. On the Slim PSP, it supports TV out. This arc includes the source, two sets of MIDI instruments and the shareware WAD file.
v1.3 is up! Networking finally works; you can also play against
compatible PC/Mac/Amiga versions of DOOM. The GUI has been revamped to
make it easier to set up and play a network game. You can now set the
starting level and skill.

Sony has officially deployed the 1.1 patch for PeacePigeon aka WarHawk, and this time it actually meant to release it and everything. Game director Dylan Jobe describes it as "a fast download", which will zap its way down your Interpipes when you next fire up WarHawk.
But what does it do, I hear you ask? It addresses "critical issues with stats and connectivity". Specifically, "stat connection, fetch/post fixes; significantly improved client connection stability; quad '????' ping display bug fixed; added support for Player-Ranked Servers; game synchronisation fixes due to fluctuating network conditions (packet-drop); crash fixes for end of game and split screen".
But wait, that sounds boring! Fortunately, Jobe and his Incog pals are also working on a 1.2 patch that introduces new layouts for existing maps, clan and Buddy list options for servers and other interesting tweaks.
For more on WarHawk, check out our WarHawk gamepage. It's available now as a PSN download or in the shops on a disc with a manual and a headset.

Uberjack has posted a new release of his MSX emulator for the PSP, heres the release details and more info from the coder himself:
Version 3.4.5 of fMSX is out - it addresses most of the features mentioned in the Future of fMSX post. Here’s the complete list of changes:
MSXMUSIC and MSXAUDIO emulation can now be toggled on and off at any time
FDD (Floppy Disk Drive) controller activity indicator - displays an icon whenever the virtual floppy drive is busy
Optional hi-resolution renderer for screen modes 6, 7 and text-80
While MSXAUDIO and MSXMUSIC emulation speed is not perfect, it is significantly more improved than with the earlier versions - with only one of the two enabled, the emulator can still run at full speed (at 333MHz with V-Sync disabled). Since most MSX programs do not use either, keep the two turned off, enabling one or the other when necessary. Note that to initialize the sound emulation engine, fMSX PSP will take longer to start up if either is enabled.
As mentioned in the previous post, high-resolution engine is now available, but its use is discouraged - emulation is slower, visual improvements are marginal. Emulation is also slightly inaccurate - the solid-color 8-pixel wide borders to the sides of the image will not be rendered in high-resolution mode due to image constraints. There’s more discussion in documentation, if you’re interested.

Empire has revealed that International Cricket Captain III will be heading to PS2 and PSP on 16th November.
It is the first time the sports management series has appeared on lounge-dwelling machines, and each will come with some unique bits and pieces.
The PS2 version will have new 3D highlights that will apparently be very similar to watching the game on the telly, while the PSP offering will focus on shorter matches like Twenty20 with Wi-Fi multiplayer.
International Cricket Captain III came out on PC in July and brought with it lots of fancy new bits like a better game engine, more motion-captured action, Ball Tracker to imitate telly-style replays, and commentary from sort of famous person Jonathan Agnew.
It will also have all the right player and team data so you can pretend your are England touring Sri Lanka or Ian Botham on the Shredded Wheat advert walking around and talking about his heart.
Pop over to the official International Cricket Captain website to get excited.

Zora has posted a new game which reminds me of the old Donkey Kong game on the Nes, heres the release newspost:
I'm glad to present to you Funky Kong!!!
Funky Kong is based off the classic barrel-jumping-hammer-bashing arcade game, Donkey-Kong!
Except, Funky Kong is a side-scroller unlike the original game. This time around, you'll
have to hurry and make it to the top, but by avoiding any possible danger. That includes;
Falling Barrels, Spinning Barrels, Flame Enemies, Flaming Barrels and finish off by a
boss battle after a level.
So far, the game is in beta form. It is still very buggy, but is playable.
Many elements of wich I wanted to include are in there, but more will come after the first
official release.
Some of the things of wich I plan to include in the future are:
Switches, Boss', Life system, time limit, and perhaps a password program to resume a level.

Good news tin fans - Capcom sends word that a three-disc Devil May Cry 4 Collector's Edition will be in the shops in time for release for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The $79.99 (£38) tined edition comes complete with documentary-packed bonus DVD and the first volume of the Devil May Cry animated series (four episodes, apparently) which we've got an inkling might be a bit rubbish, but who knows.
The bonus DVD includes a making of feature, soundtrack extracts, a digital art book, wallpapers, icons and screen savers for your PC. Lovely.
It's out in North America on February 5. There's currently no word on a European release but we've left a message with Capcom asking about one. Lost Planet's tin made it over here, so we're feeling optimistic.

Game Republic has popped a website up for its new PlayStation Network title Dark Mist.
It is an action shooter title where you play as light warrior Altemis and try to stop a demon king having his wicked way. As you do.
According to a translation of the Japanese website by IGN there will be Sixaxis-shaking sections to clear enemies in close-quarters, but otherwise you will use a standard light arrow attack to do away with baddies or use a big bomb when things get a bit hairy and you want a breather.
Special attacks should also help you out a bit, and come in Split Star, Meteor Flare and Lightning forms.
It is due for release on 8th November in Japan for JPY 800 (GBP 3.40 / EUR 4.80). We are currently waiting to hear back from Sony Europe about plans for the game here.
Pop over to the Dark Mist website for a look at some minuscule screenshots.

Following reports that hackers were able to reinstate violence censored from the PSP version of Manhunt 2, the ESRB issued a statement defending its "M" rating.
"Our investigation indicates that the game's publisher disclosed to the ESRB all pertinent content in the authorized Mature-rated version of Manhunt 2 now available in stores, and complied with our guidelines on full disclosure of content," the statement read.
While noting that unauthorised versions of the game have been released on the Internet along with instructions on how to modify the code to remove the special effects filters that obscured certain violent depictions, the ESRB stated that it did not believe such modifications "fully restore the product to the version that originally received an AO rating, nor is this a matter of unlocking content."
"Manhunt 2's rating makes it unmistakable that the game is intended for an older audience. The unauthorized hacking into the code of this game doesn’t change that basic fact," said ESRB president Patricia Vance.
The ratings bureau made it clear that computer software and hardware devices are susceptible to unauthorised modification, and therefore game content could be changed in ways inconsistent with the assigned ESRB rating. Vance urged parents to monitor what their children are downloading to ensure that they are not removing the controls "put in place for their own protection."
In a conference call, Vance was asked how the latest situation differed from the "Hot Coffee" incident, in which hackers were able to unlock adult content on the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas game. In that case, the ESRB re-rated the game AO (Adults Only), causing retailers to pull it from the shelves before Rockstar released a cleaned-up version.
Vance indicated that the "Hot Coffee" incident differed in that the GTA: San Andreas content was unmodified and merely unlocked, was not disclosed to the ESRB during the ratings process, and was easily accessible to owners of the PC version.
She was also asked about a situation involving The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, in which the ESRB re-rated the game after discovering previously undisclosed blood and gore in the game, not to mention topless art present on the disc that was not disclosed during the rating process.
In the case of Manhunt 2, the content in question had previously been disclosed to the ESRB, the content is being modified rather than being unlocked, and it requires unauthorised versions of software and/or hardware to play the modified content.
The ESRB is therefore standing by its M rating.

News/release from JasonUK:
This is a minimal ELF menu for Pandora.
Replace ms0:/kd/resurrection.elf on your magic memory stick with the one included in this archive, so the PSP loads it when you insert the Pandora battery & memory stick, and it shows a list of ELFs inside the ms0:/elf folder (it will give a warning and shutdown if the folder doesnt exist or there are no ELFs inside it)
Use D-Pad up/down to choose the ELF you want to run, and press X.
Hold HOME and press D-pad up/down to reload the menu if something goes wrong with the arrow, I have fixed as many problems as I could but it's still pretty bugged up. The handling code isn't perfect, but it should have no trouble displaying at least 20 apps.
LoadExec seems to have problems if the filename contains spaces or symbols, so use underscores(_) instead. These will be converted to spaces on the menu, so they look nicer.
Applications containing _SLIM or _FAT at the end of the filename (e.g. blah_SLIM.elf) will be greyed out if the menu is not running on that model.
For example, keyCleaner_FAT.elf will be greyed out and unselectable on a Slim PSP.
If the ELF fails to run, the screen usually flickers and remains on the ELF menu.
Note: you must use ELFs with this, EBOOT.PBP files are likely to fail (Use PBPUnpacker to extract DATA.PSP from whatever EBOOT you want to run, and rename it to whatever.elf)
Finally, there is a Shutdown option at the bottom.
CHANGELOG:
0.1a -> 0.2
- Applications containing _SLIM or _FAT at the end of the filename (e.g. blah_SLIM.elf) will be greyed out if the menu is not running on that model.
e.g. keyCleaner_FAT.elf will be greyed out and unselectable on a Slim PSP.
- Minor bug fixes

StrmnNrmn has just released the 13th version of his N64 emulator. One of the new features is the long awaited savestate option! That's right, you'll be able to save your game at any given point. This'll certainly make the slower games more playable.
Many speed improvements have been added. I myself have tested Super Mario 64 and it's running full speed at some parts!
As for the full changelog:
[+] Savestate support.
[^] Improved dynarec load/store code generation to remove a branch and a couple of instructions.
[^] Dynarec now generates much better code for fragments which branch to themselves.
[^] Dynarec load/stores through the stack pointer are now much more efficient.
[^] Avoid invalidating the instruction cache where possible.
[^] Simplified CPU event handling, making it slightly more efficient.
It was certainly worth the wait! It’s like they say, good thing will come to those who wait

News/release from deerwings:
I've been tweaking the keyboard page a little bit more, and now it has the ability to open pages in the current tab the keyboard is in, or work with the other two tabs without closing the keyboard tab as well. You can switch between tabs with Square + LTrig. At this time, I don't think I can make the keyboard pass text entered in the field to another input box on a different tab, especially considering that the PSP browser automatically opens the built-in OSK, which forces you to have to close it before returning to the browser. This is a current limitation to the PSP browser I cannot bypass at this time. It would require a re-write to the PSP browser itself, and I don't have those skills.
However! In accordance with other suggestions I'm looking into the potential of using Javascript to render pages, but I think that may be too costly memory-wise without the use of some kind of pre-renderer that would reduce the page sizes and still may not solve the text entry problem. This was outside the scope of this particular project in the first place anyhow.
Perhaps someone might code a completely new PSP browser (Other than Lynx) with completely custom entry methods?
