Since Phantasy Star Universe launched in Japan for the PlayStation 2 and PC last month, the game's online experience has been plagued by unstable connections and problems related to character data. Phantasy Star Universe publisher Sega has addressed the issues on the game's Web site, saying that it is making "drastic improvements" to the game, which was the top-selling title in Japan last week despite its problems. The announcement further says that Sega is working to "bring the debugging period to a close."
The largest change announced was that new game servers are being added. Until now, PSU has been contained within the World 1 servers, but from September 14, a second set of servers, dubbed World 2, will be put online. Worlds 1 and 2 will be totally independent of each other, so players will be required to select a world when logging on. Character data cannot be moved between the worlds, but players will be allowed to keep up to four characters on each world using a single account.
Sega also listed a number of bug fixes that have already been made, such as fixing the overwriting, the rollback, and the locking-up of character data. However, issues with logging in and transporting to the My Room areas have not yet been resolved.
"The bugs that have occurred so far have been caused by the concentration of access traffic, which surpassed our estimates and resulted in overflows on the database server," the publisher explained. "This was causing character data to be overwritten and rolled back, and these issues spread to the My Room servers. We have been working around these problems on the program level, and by adding servers, but everyday access traffic exceeded our maintenance efforts."

Ubisoft's Sin City tactical-shooter, Rainbow Six: Vegas has spawned another glitzy gameplay trailer - and surprise, surprise; it's looking gorgeous.
If you haven't been paying attention, we're unhappy to report that Ubi's 'Vegas isn't the tale of the Rainbow Six Team's terrorist-busting stag do, but their mission to take down international terrorist Irena Morales, who fancies his chances at blowing up Las Vegas. As Rainbow leader Logan Keller, you and your team have a real-time-ish limit of one night to stop him.
Rainbow Six: Vegas is gunning for release on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 at the end of the year.

Have you forgotten about the CPS1 emulator with all of the excitement over the CPS2 emulator? Well, NJ certainly hasn't and he's been hard at work on his CPS1PSP emulator.
Planned
-Change the drawing processes to ones similar to CPS2 to improve the speed by as much as possible.
-Change the Z80 core.
-Add state save/load: The state save feature is mainly to make the debugging process easier (I added it because I don't want to keep on playing until the same spot where a bug occurs over and over again), and I have given absolutely no consideration for compatibility with other emulators.
-Anything else that I may happen to think of.
Nothings been going the way I had planned. First of all, it's unstable. There's been lots of occasions where I haven't even been able to compile it. By adding the -G0 compile option it won't even run. Without it, there are games that won't run when using the same C68K as CPS2. It also looks like I won't be able to use CZ80. To make it compatible with kabuki encryption, I'd have to make quite a few changes to the source, but by making it compatible, I've got the feeling that it'll be even slower than MAME's Z80.
This is about what the state of things is right now.
It certainly is rough emulating YM2151 with the PSP's processing capabilities.
I'm planning on ending development of this with the next release. Additionally, he has finally released the source code for the cache converters for the NEO GEO and CPS2 emulators, and it should now be much easier to port this tool to other platforms. For those interested:
About the Source
-I had absolutely no plans to release this, so there isn't even a single comment.
-Because the it would be tedious to write the explanation, I haven't even written instructions on how to compile it.
-The source code is so disorganized that I have declined to supply it when I have received requests for the source in order to port it. Frankly, (especially with CPS2) I don't think you'll be able to tell what's going on when looking at it.
-Visual C++ 6.0 is necessary in order to compile it. If you fix the makefile you can compile it in versions later than 6.0. It would be necessary to rewrite the code under GCC.
-zip32j.dll is used for the ZIP compression.
-I won't reply to any questions related to the program, so please understand. The readme contains much of the same information, but with apologies for only using GCC for PSP applications, a note that he uses GNU MAKE, an appeal to do something about the zip32j.dll dependancy should it be ported, and finally, a comment that the source for the emulators proper needs to be cleaned up, but is forthcoming.

e has updated his multi-platform emulator for the PSP. The changes are reported on his homepage as:
(1) WS : Characters weren't displaying correctly, so I fixed it.
(2) WS : Finished checking SRAM save and state save.
(3) Lynx: It appears to work for the time being.

Firstly heres a screenshot:
Now the official website is a bit vague but from what can be made out this is a new version of the excellent GP32 Console which has probably one of the best Emulation and Homebrew scenes going and hundreds of releases. Its coming in October now (was september but hardware probs have moved the date.)
Will this threaten the DS and PSP and GP2X Homebrew Domination ?, we will have to see

Sony's ads just keep on getting weirder. Here's one for the PSP that involves sign language... for the feet. What could this possibly mean? Maybe it means your hands are too pre-occupied playing that your feet must do the talking... OR maybe Sony's working on a new DDR pad for the PSP!

Heres an excerpt
Japan just can't get enough of the Tales series, and that's good news for Namco, who have been releasing them at an incredible pace. Soon enough they're going to run out of swanky names to attach to the title. I'm looking forward to Tales of Normality, myself. So while the PS2 has been receiving new Tales games, the PSP has been regulated to port detention, with Tales of Destiny 2 and Tales of Eternia. Before Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology hits the country, Namco has decided to give the PSP yet another port, but not just any port. This time, it's a port of a port! How thoughtful, right? Tales of Phantasia: Full Voice Edition based on the PSOne port of the original SNES game. Still with me? Good.
If you haven't played the three previous versions of the game, Phantasia follows the story of a young swordsman named Cless Alevin, whose small town of Toltus is leveled by an evil dark knight named Mars, who is after a pendant that can break the seal over the evil sorcerer Dhaos. By fighting legions of enemies in the present, past and future, Cless and the friends that he makes along the way must do away with Dhaos once and for all.

The Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle aka USK, that rates Entertainment Software in Germany, recently put up the final rating of Vice City Stories in the country. The age restriction is set at 16, which according to the description contains ''frequent one-on-one gunplay and moderate violence. The game may cover adult themes.''
GTA: San Andreas also received an age 16 rating, which had several violent features removed, such as removing animations of headshots, pedestrians not leaving money behind after you killed them, and not being able to hit or kick dead corpses.
Chances are Vice City Stories will go through the same route, and the same censorship will most likely be put in for the Australian version. Other countries, such as the United States and United Kingdom, will remain uncut however.

10 Things I hate about the PS3
1) The PlayStation 3 costs too much!!!
2) The specs for the PS3 keep changing, no HDMI support for the $499 version.
3) Conversely, not many people have High Definition televisions yet. Isn't it a bit early to start pushing so hard for a technology most can't afford?
4) No "shock" in my Dual Shock. Is cheesy tilt-sensing worth the loss of force-feedback?
5) Sony says they won't have enough consoles to ship for launch. Only 500,000, they say.
6) Sony is putting way too many figurative eggs in their metaphorical Blu-Ray basket. End users don't really care about formats so long as they work.
7) Developers say that the PlayStation 3 is difficult to work with or that the Cell processor is a pain to program for.
8) The PS3 launch library is pretty slim, only 13 titles or so.
9) Where's the innovation? Xbox and Nintendo are trying new things and the PS3 seems like "Just another PlayStation."
10) Why is Sony staying so quiet about the PS3 if this huge new system is going to be launching in 2 months? Where are the ads and the hands-on reports? Are they hiding something? I've fallen and I can't get up!

A 1UP user passed along the suggestion that we check the patent records for the name 'Sixaxis' and see what turned up. Scanning the trademark's text it's clear that this could be any number of things (see image above).
However, the term "six axis" has appeared frequently in Sony PR, including multiple times in the May 8, 2006 announcement of the controller's motion sensing functionality:
The controller for PS3 employs breakthrough technology of high-precision, highly sensitive six-axis sensing system that does not require any devices other than the controller itself for seamless interactive operation, thus eliminating additional settings to TVs. With this technology, ways to enjoy PS3 will be further enhanced by accessing PS3 through the network, while retaining the six-axis sensing capability.

While GamesConvention in Germany, there were pictures published showing the PS3 with scratches and dust everywhere. Now we got our hands on a
new exclusive picture showing, that the PS3 actually had a protection foil over the case! This means, that the case of the PS3 might not be as
sensitive as many sites claimed. On the picture there is a marked area!
And by the way: Our insider told us, that all PS3s on GC (that were in non-debug cases) were real RETAIL PS3s, which were supposed to be shipped to retailers, before!

New preorder from SuccessHK
The book by Mario Puzo and the classic film serve as inspiration here, as gamers will join the Corleone family and earn respect through loyalty and fear as they rise through the ranks to become Don in a living 1945-1955 New York. The Godfather: Mob Wars is a new experience for the PSP system that engages gamers in a turf war as you take over territory in the strategic Mob Wars mode unique to the PSP version of the game. Maneuver your mobsters and play the right cards (literally -- the game's Mob Wars gameplay is played out with cards and boards, like a traditional strategy game) to take control of NYC one territory at a time. Once things heat up, drop down on the streets to start knocking heads around and claiming territory in action-packed game sequences.
