News/release from Johnny McKinney:
As promised here is the newest version of my program Control Tester. Special thanks goes to rowanmcau (mafia1ft) for all his help with the analog, font, and menu feature. Now I have included a How to use txt in this download explaining how to recenter/fix your joystick without having to take you psp into the workshop or back to the place you bought it from and heres what the text says,
"Basically everything is common sence except the new feature. The analog detection is pretty unique, heres how it works basically when you start it up it will have 2 numbers displayed in the center. Thats the position of your joystick. Both should be as close to 0 as posible but just in case the top numbers are left and right if you move your joystick left it goes into negative numbers move it right it goes positive recenter those. Now the bottom numbers are up and down, up being negative and down being positive. Try to recenter that as close to 0 as possible, it's ok if its not perfect but, don't let them get below 6 or -6. Now heres the cool part this works all the time on my psp in which the joystick is messed up. Now once you recenter it dont touch the joystick switch off your psp and switch it back on. I dont know how this does it but it does it. Once your in the xmb your safe to move your joystick. now when you play a game you won't go to the left, right, up, down, or all over the place because, for some reason your psp has recentered itself. I can't gaurentee it to work 100% of the time but, it does work for me all the time I even use this program before I start up my PSP (not that you will) anyway hope this helps any problems contact me. If your a noob like I still am I'd be glad to help you a little with lua coding thanks and see you all on my game ." Don't expect me to go straight on and work on the game or let me hint you on what it will be cause the game me and rowanmcau (mafia1ft) is really a big surprise since it's my first attempt at a game I want it to be perfect and something no one would expect. Now its 12:00 P.M. here and I have been up all night working on this so as soon as I wake up me and rowanmcau (mafia1ft) will get started on the game. Thanks everyone and hope you enjoy.

Heres an excerpt
History is littered with game systems using far-too-stubby of controller sticks. From the Intellivision's "disc of doom," to Coleco's "shaft of stiffness" (quiet, you!), and even now, in this high-tech age, the Sony PSP's "sliding nub of death." It's unfortunate that the PSP is saddled with that thing -- it's a pretty slick system otherwise, with a library of almost 5 games! (Please don't key our cars.) Well what if you could augment that sliding nub with something more useful, like an actual analog control stick? Well now you can!
In part 1 of this article we'll show you how to wire up an analog stick (from a PS1 / PS2 Dual Shock controller or an original Xbox controller) to your PSP. It's a lot easier than you might think. In part 2 (coming soon) we'll walk you through making a swell "clip on" joystick enclosure for the stick (or you can simply roll your own in the mean time). Ready to do this thing? Get in there!
For part 1 of this project we're going to learn how to attach an analog stick to one of the PSP's internal circuit boards. You can then use this info to build a custom joystick "clip-on" device yourself, or use the steps that will be covered in the upcoming part 2 of this project.

According to the study by Los Angeles based Interpret, 8.9 million U.S consumers are prepared to pay full price ($500 or $600) for the PlayStation 3 this fall, compared to 5.7 million consumers who are willing to buy Wii at $250 and just 800,000 people who are willing to pay full price for Xbox 360 ($300 to $400).
This research, released first to Next Generation, was derived from a sample of 2,000 interviews Interpret conducted online, weighted to 2004 Census data of 13 to 54 year-olds in the U.S. Researchers ran a parallel random digit dial telephone study as a back-up to weigh the data to what the US population looks like to ensure that the online data was not over-representing females, which often occurs with online surveys.

Just as PS3 pre-orders are selling out nationwide at EB Games/GameStop stores, Generation: Gamerz has received information implying that Sony is worried about PlayStation 3 heat issues, contrary to recent reports.
In addition to the 3 crashes witnessed by many at the TGS show, at least one company that manufactures the store kiosks has been asked to implement last minute design changes to the displays: additional cooling is being implemented. Although our source reports that they have been unable to overheat the unit in house, they are to continue with the installation of a cooling fan in the display.
Seems as though Sony is experiencing many of the same problems Microsoft has. Let`s hope Sony provides a longer warranty.

New from SuccessHK
A vicious circle of violence has erupted. The battle torn continent of Neverland is caught up in a great war between good and evil once again. Now, three young soldiers rise to put an end to this madness once and for all. In Spectral Souls (a remake of a PS2 title called Shinki Gensou Spectral Souls II from Japan), the player will switch between the three opposing kingdoms to play the Royal Demon Kingdom, the Imperial Army, or the Rebel Army. Depending on how you progress through the game with each of the forces, the story of the game will change. For those familiar with the import, Idea Factory has added new gameplay elements, including a new Unlimited Level, which allows you to continue raising your character levels with no limit. The game also includes additional movie footage, designed for those who are new to the series.

Yesterday GameStop's Chris Olivera told me that somewhere between 28,800 and 57,600 Playstation 3s were pre-ordered at their stores 3,600 stores.
I had a chance to speak with Sony Computer Entertainment of America spokesman Dave Karraker last night about the sales. (He said he called because he felt sorry for me and my gimpy broken hand. ) Karraker said they heard within minutes of the nationwide GameStop sell-outs and that they were very happy with the news.
"It reconfirms the excitement and anticipation that we've known since we first discuss the PlayStation 3," he said. "We're just pleased to see that the reaction from the consumer is as strong as we anticipated it would be. It helps to validate everything we have been saying up to this point."
While he wouldn't tell me the break-down of which chains were getting what in the way of Playstation 3s, simple math shows that if Sony comes through on their 400,000 console promise to North America, that there are still more than 340,000 left to buy.

Via Slashdot:
Well, it's official. The pre-orders have begun ... and mostly ended. I just got mine ordered and four hours later there are already units on eBay. Some acutions have already gone north of $1000 USD. The guys at EBGames told me that the most units going to any one store was 36 and that there were an average of 8 units being distributed to each store. The one I went to reported that they were going to be getting a total of 16 units. They waited this long to take pre-orders because they wanted to be sure that they weren't going to get burned like they did for the XBox 360 launch."
The reports from across the internets are varied, with long lines netting nothing for some, and others reaping the sweet rewards.

The game everyone except all of you has taken to calling "Fighty McNighty" will be arriving on PlayStation 3 in the USA on 12th December, EA Sports has revealed.
So that's Fight Night Round 3, just in case you were in any doubt, which is of course already out on Xbox 360 - where it was one of the most popular downloadable demos ever, and a big critical success and everything.
The PS3 version will have some of its own moves to show off though, including the previously announced "Get in the Ring" mode, where you can play the game entirely in first-person.
That ought to be quite an experience, too, since one of the things FNR3 was most widely acclaimed for was its brutally realistic depiction of facial damage.
Anyway, as for when it's out over here, EA simply has it down as "TBA", but our money's on it being served up at the PS3's European launch.

We're not sure what Ubisoft's been taking but it seems to be working where PSP game development's concerned. Having recently been bowled over by the visual quality of the publisher's forthcoming Rainbow Six game on Sony's handheld, we're equally enthusiastic today about quality new screenshots from its PSP Star Wars game Lethal Alliance. Pass mince pies over the goods for yourself and see what you think.
Due in December, Lethal Alliance plunges players into Star Wars blasting set between movies Episode III and Episode IV. You take charge of a mercenary team working for Princess Leia and her hair buns of justice, battling Imperial forces and general evilness and attempting to steal the blueprints for the Death Star to secure a bright future for the Rebel Alliance.

The PS3 version of Bethesda's epic RPG, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will feature graphical tweaks and the new "Knights of the Ninte" quest, an interview has revealed.
Speaking to IGN, executive producer Todd Howard said that the PS3 version of Oblivion will sport improved graphical features, the most notcible of which is apparently the updated graphical shaders: "The best examples are those new shaders we have for how 'near detail' and 'far detail' blend together on the landscape," he said. "You no longer have a harsh line cutting across the two levels - they blend together seamlessly and the distant detail and land looks much nicer."
Speaking about the new quest, Howard said that Knights of the Nine will take 10 to 20 hours to finish, and also commented on Bethesda's plans for PS3 download content, saying it's "something we'd like to support on PS3, but right now that's really in Sony's hands".
Oblvion launches alongside the PS3 early next year. We'll let you know how much better it looks when we get our hands on the first PS3 screens.

Hot on the heels of yesterday's Xbox 360 and Wii screenshot splurge, we've got five fresh PS3 shots of Activision and Treyarch's third Call of Duty, invading Sony's next-gen console early next year.
Once again refreshing the memories of the FPS-ignorant; CoD 3 puts players in the combat boots of British, US, Polish and Canadian troops (no Russians this time) against the Nazi war machine. For the three-quel, Treyarch has opted to focus on the Normandy breakout, one of WWII's most brutal campaigns - terrible at the time, but brilliant fun in front of a HD telly with a PS3 pad.
Call of Duty 3 will be out for Xbox 360, Xbox and PS2 next month, with Wii and PS3 versions to follow at their respective launches.

Yakuza 2 is currently penned for release in Japan on December 7. When contacted, Sega couldn't comment on a possible European release but did say sales of the original were good, suggesting that the sequel hopefully has a fighting chance of reaching our shores.
With Super Monkey Ball creator Toshihiro Nagoshi back in the director's chair, the story kicks off with an assassination that prompts our hero to head southwards towards Kamurocho, Osaka.
Apparently the sequel will have a "deeper dramatic storyline" and new themes such as an "adult love story," although we're not exactly expecting Heart Beat, to be honest.
The first game only hit our shores a few weeks ago, but Sega has already released a trailer for Yakuza 2. Take a look.
