It would have been a bit difficult for them to rock an EyeToy for the PSP (though we know they did have a camera prototype), so instead Sony took a page out of Nintendo’s book with vocal game interaction and announced the Talkman for the PSP. Available in Japan in November for ¥5,800 (about $50), it should be able to translate to understand Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean—you know, the important languages. Seriously though, anyone else see the humor in a bird asking for the “duty-free store?” No? Fine.

Skeezix has posted in this PSP Emulation Forum Topic a new release of his excellent AtariSt Emulator for the PSP Castaway/PSP version 004b, heres whats new thanks to Skeezix 
Release 004b
------------
NEW: Caching of the database lookups; having it re-scan the disk database every
time got on my nerves quick, so now it caches the lookups to memstick; as
such you only get the 'big hit' once, or whenever you copy over a pile of
new disk images. Subsequent loads will only check new disks, so the lookup
will be much faster each run.
o Side effect -- if you _rename_ files around, you might eventually need
to delete the STCACHE.TXT file as it would become inaccurate. But no biggy,
I doubt anyone will do that..”

Hi. I've been lurking around for a while, but here goes. I've been at my wit's end over trying to get my (north american) slim pstwo to play imports. I purchased slim tools, but I have the newer V13 console and they won't work correctly. So since I have to open the thing up and void the warranty anyway, I've been looking at getting a flip-top as a more stable solution. However, I've also noticed those classy new XCM cases, and had a question. If I install one of those, will that take care of my swap problem? I've seen it insinuated here and there that the door of the case doesn't touch any of the microswitches itself--that it acts as a built-in fliptop mod. Does anyone here know anything about this? I hate to register just to pester people with questions, but I can't get a straight answer out of any vendor or find information online that's clearly stated either way. Help?

Sony seems to be on a roll today when A/V equipment is concerned, and this time they introduce the RDR-AX75, a home DL DVD burner with 250Gb HDD that is capable of encoding video in Mpeg-4 AVC (H.264_, and these files are 100% PSP compatible! Once the video is stored onto the HDD, you just need to stick your MS Duo in the slot and transfer the video onto the memory card. Depending on the type of encoding you use, you can put between 1h10 and 4h10 of video onto a 1Gb card. In order to play back the Mpeg-4 AVC content, you need to have the 2.0 firmware on your PSP.
Other models will be launched later, lije the D90 versions of 400Gb and the D70 and D50 of 250Gb.

The major soccer game has been released in Japan, heres the info:
The first handheld iteration of Konami's top sports title, this PSP version of Winning Eleven (known as Pro Evolution Soccer in Europe) will feature the utter realism, intuitive play and fast-paced action of the ever-popular series. The handheld version will also be almost identical in terms of available clubs and international sides, with 57 national sides lining up alongside 136 club teams. The highly-competitive multi-player aspects of the game are highlighted using the hardware's wireless systems. Challenge rival players (via an ad-hoc wireless connection) to games, with all data related to match results ? goals for, goals against, wins, etc ? retained in a running tally. Solo players can also hone their skills within six different leagues and a host of cup tournaments, and the PSP game can also be linked to the PlayStation 2 version for data exchange of created teams for play on either version or for trade with friends.

Skeezix has posted in this PSP Emulation Forum Topic a new release of his excellent AtariSt Emulator for the PSP Castaway/PSP version 004, heres whats new thanks to Skeezix
This is a sexy build if I do say so myself..
CHG: When in joystick-on-analog mode, sensitivity is reduced a bit.. ie: I
found when pulling left I'd often get up-and-left or down-and-left as my
thumb isn't accurate enough; so I've altered it so to indicate a direction
you need to be further to the edge of the analog zone, so it more often
would detect straight-left when I wanted it.
CHG: New font for user interface; built a font importer package so I could
suck in truetype fonts easily, and am using a variant of Arial 14px for now..
should be much more readable and smooth (a little bigger and rounder.) I'm
pleased with my 'auto kern' system.. seems to work well for nice dynamic
spacing.. I just need to add auto-anti-aliasing sometime
- For each dialog, title font is bold and with drop-shadow
NEW: In menus, up/down works as normal; left/right will quick-scroll up
and down, letting you move faster.
FIX: Repeat timer prevents 'cursor mode' from repeating 'too quickly' ..
so using cursor mode for playing Dungeon Master, Captive etc should work
pretty well now
FIX: In game-list (output from database lookup) it shouldn't sometimes have
garbage in game names
NEW: New PSP launcher artwork - backsplash and icon by parobolee - thanks mate!
o Looking good I think!
CHG: Increase game list height, to show more games if lots in database
NEW: ST Games database right in the disk picker
o Database look up is done each time disk picker comes up; sort of lame..
should at least be cached within the emu runtime, and ideally between emu
runs.. but maybe next version
o Draws first 25 characters from game-list descroiptions, starting about
1/3rds of the way over in the picker display; should fit pretty well. To
get the rest of the listing, pick the disk and hit "look up in database" to
get the full listing line by line
NEW: When analog is operating the ST mouse, there are now two speeds build in..
ie: far-left is 'left 2px per frame' while half-left is 'left 1px per frame'.
Let me know if more degrees of speed are needed..
NEW: Frameskip is supported (though mostly not needed!) -- in the runtime
[start] menu, frameskip options are available. Some math heavy operations
will slow things down a touch, but generally the emu is fast enough.
NEW: Throttling is supported; in the main runtime [start] menu you can now
enable or disable throttle -- enablingmeans the system is slowed down to
approximately a real ST (north american, anyway); if throttle is off, try
running as fast as possible. The default is throttle is _on_

Another review for me and this tiime its a turn of the Epoch UMD Case (5 Pack) which are cases that give protection to your UMD Movie or Game, heres some info:
The pack contains 5 UMD cases in red, yellow, blue, green and smoke black colors. These cases fit UMD's perfectly and the base of the case allows you to simply push the UMD's out of the cases. They are also held in firmly using the two holes on the back of the UMD.
Heres an excerpt from my review:
I wasnt expecting much from these Epoch cases as to me they didnt look hard wearing enough from screenshots on the internet. The colourful cases which are seethrough make it easy to see your Film or Game once inserted and the plastic case does seem quite tough on inserting the UMD into the case, it went in smooothly and seemed to go into a locking mechanism of sorts.

At last, the first footage from Rockstar's wildly anticipated GTA PSP debut, Liberty City Stories, has appeared and is available for download at the foot of this very page.
While not showing any in-game footage, a montage of cutscenes from the game gives a glimpse of some of the characters that will appear, including lead mobster, Toni Cipriani.
Based on events three years before GTA 3, Liberty City Stories follows the violent exploits of Cipriani as he wages war on the streets of LC in an effort to establish himself as a big fromage on the criminal cheese board.
We'll be bringing you a preview of Liberty City Stories later today, so stay tuned to gamesradar.com for more GTA goodness.
GTA Liberty City Stories will be released for PSP in October

To encourage more consumers to purchase movies on the company's PSP specific Universal Media Disc (UMD) format, Sony has announced the forthcoming release of the first hybrid UMD containing a full movie and exclusive playable game.
Due for release on November 15th in the USA, Stealth will be the first movie released for the PSP which also includes a playable game on the same disc. Although a truncated version of the original, WipEout Pure will be included, featuring additional content which cannot be found elsewhere.
Dubbed WipEout Pure: Stealth edition, the UMD will contain three tracks, three crafts and three different modes, available for single player or up to four people in multiplayer games.
The tracks will include an exclusive level designed specifically for the Stealth package, and players will also be able to race using the Stealth aircraft from the movie as an added bonus.
Whilst Sony Pictures Home Entertainment president Ben Feingold heralds the release as "an unparalleled entertainment experience that marks the next phase in portable entertainment," concerns remain that consumers may not be as easily swayed into buying films on a format which can only ever be used on the PSP, as opposed to the universal DVD format - particularly given the pricing of the products in question.
Available from November 15th, Stealth UMD including WipEout Pure: Stealth edition will retail at USD 39.95 - considerably higher than the standard movie UMD price range of USD 19.95-29.95.
