NeilR and Frozenipaq have released a new version of Squarez, heres the details from the horses mouth:
I told you it was coming, and I'm happy to annouce the release of Squarez: Puzzle. This game was intented to be included with a later version of the popular PSP homebrew Squarez but never saw the light of day beyond its beta production and releases. As a beta tester I've been holding onto the game for 3 years now and have decided that it is the right time to release it as Socals, the developer, has disappeared since 2006. Why should the two beta testsers hang on to the game when the entire community can benefit from Socals's creation.
So what's Squarez: Puzzle about? It's simple. Do you recall all those puzzle games in adventure games where you must move blocks that are blocking your way in a dungeon? You are stuck in the game surrounded by block walls and must escape by moving each block and reach the goal. Some blocks can only be moved once, some can be moved multiple times and some can't be moved at all. It should keep you occupied for a while so enjoy!

News/release from raing3
Memory Stick Utility is a multi-purpose utility to application which can perform various general management functions on a Memory Stick. This includes:
- Connect various devices through a USB cable (Flash 0, Flash 1, Flash 2, Flash 3, Memory Stick and UMD Disc)
- Inject a variety of included IPLs or an IPL from a file to the Memory Stick
- Erase the entire IPL space of the Memory Stick
- Check the IPL injected on the Memory Stick or a file located on the Memory Stick
- Create a checksum of the IPL injected on the Memory Stick or an IPL located on the Memory Stick
- Extract the IPL injected on the Memory Stick to a file
In this release I made the following changes:
- Added option to extract Memory Stick MBR
- Added detection of available IPL space and Memory Stick Information
- Added option to extract entire IPL space from Memory Stick
- Fixed a bug which caused corruption of Memory Stick when injecting an IPL larger than the reserved space
- Entire IPL area is now erased from the Memory Stick
- Fixed issue detecting IPLs smaller than 4,096 bytes which were injected with this application
- Fixed issue which meant more space was required to inject an IPL, the required IPL space is now only rounded up to a multiple of 512 when it is not a multiple of 512
- PRXs are now stored internally for easier installation of application
- Reverted the IPL injection back to the style used in version 0.4
Any suggestions as to possible fixes of bugs or features would be greatly appreciated. I'm planning on hopefully adding a format function (if I can figure out how to) or something else in the next release, all ideas are welcome as I am running out of ideas.

News/release from Torch:
Lockdown In-Game will require you to enter a password when you resume your PSP from suspend mode. Useful to prevent other people from messing up your progress if you put the PSP in suspend during a game.
Installation:
Put it in the ms0:/seplugins/ folder and make an entry in GAME.txt (e.g. ms0:/seplugins/lockdown.prx).
It is recommended that it should be the very first entry in GAME.txt (How ever if you also have Hold+ installed, then make Hold+ first and lockdown.prx second).
Use the included exe to create a password file (buttons.ini) and put it in ms0:/seplugins/
If you also have the flash0: version of Lockdown installed, then this will detect and use the same flash0: password.
It only works in GAME mode. It will not work in the XMB.
Notes:
I have only tested it with few games that I have. Its recommended that you don't suspend the PSP while a game video is playing as sometimes it doesn't work properly during video playback.
While in the password screen, press Select if you want to suspend the PSP again without typing the password (the power switch won't work in the password screen).
Quote:
Changelog v1.1
----------------------------------
Optimized the code a bit.
The PSP doesn't automatically suspend after entering a wrong password. You can now press Select while in the password screen to suspend the PSP.

Hey There Guys and Gals of the PSP Homebrew World, I release to you today, a Preview of a Work in progress.
Basically, it's just a preview of what we got going here at [dik]* Games
I would appreciate it if someone uploaded some screenies for me, cos my PSP Broke and I won't be getting a new one until wednesday fingers crossed.
But Please do check it out and tell us what you think
There are lots of bugs that we are still working on, and if you walk onto another map and it vanishes, it's because it doesn't exist yet. Some of the collisions are not done yet.
Also, you can pick up an item from the cabbage patch in the small vegetable garden (Just a test for Item Pickups cos we are in the middle of testing).
Well, there's the upload, download and enjoy, comments and feedback greatly appreciated. All code done by us from scratch and images used from RPG Maker VX. Enjoi

Although most fighting game fans have expected the U.S. release of The King of Fighters XII, official word came down the line today. Ignition Entertainment confirmed the U.S. release of the next iteration in SNK's renowned fighting franchise. Although no platforms or specifics have been revealed, at least fans of the series can rest assured that the game will be hitting home consoles in 2009. The game will also see a European release during the same year.
King of Fighters XII, in celebration of its 15th Anniversary, will be taking some big strides forward in terms of visuals. "For the first time in its history, this ultimate fighting game has undergone a complete graphical overhaul. All sprites used over the past 14 years have been dropped and replaced with new 2D high-definition, high-resolution sprites, on detailed 2D backgrounds, drawn 100 percent by hand." This should definitely please hardcore enthusiasts eager to see a graphical update to the long-standing franchise.
We'll keep you posted when more details are released.

There isn’t much to play on your PSP this holiday season, but that hasn’t stopped people from getting excited over rumors that “LittleBigPlanet” would go portable.
Even though “LittleBigPlanet” has just launched on PlayStation 3, people already want to know what’s next.
While on the phone yesterday with John Koller, head of hardware marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment America, we asked him about the rumors.
“‘LittleBigPlanet’ is so expansionary,” said Koller. “I think the developer’s really concentrating on right now making sure that the launched product is everything it could be and can be. We’re watching the UGC [user generated content] and seeing how that’s playing out. But for the future, I think certainly, we’d look at a wide variety of opportunities. Whether that’s the PSP or not, I can’t really say. We certainly look at ‘LittleBigPlanet’ franchise as a going forward franchise for us, and that speaks to the PlayStation brand overall.”
His last line should provide hope for handheld “LittleBigPlanet.”
But we didn’t stop there. With “Guitar Hero: On Tour” proving so popular on the DS, what is Sony doing to court the makers of “Rock Band” and “Guitar Hero” to PSP? Here’s what Koller told us.
“It’s of huge interest to us,” he said. “That’s something you’d really have to talk to the developers on that side [if] it’s going to happen or not. For us, we look at the music area as being critical for PSP and the social area of interest as well. PSP is a lot different than your traditional handheld product and music is the number two use on the PSP, behind gaming. So, the marrying of those two concepts is of huge interest to us, and if there’s that opportunity to launch a title like that or even a new title that utilizes music in some way, then obviously we’re very interested.”
Of course, this then begs the question, how would Neversoft or Harmonix (or someone else?) do a music game on PSP? Would it need a peripheral?

Azure Palace, which was moderated out of LittleBigPlanet's online play for reasons unnamed, is back up. Thanks to reader Michael B. for that tip. The takedown sparked much outrage among the LBP level-building community, as Azure Palace is one of the better-known levels and a favorite of many, and it was not at all obvious what the offending content was. Not sure if the negative publicity is what got the board back, but it's there. Perhaps moderators were reacting to grief flags without further inspection. That said, they still need to come up with a more transparent policy, because there's still a great deal of tension over the possibility of sudden and unexplained moderation. There's a petition for that still going on.

Those of you still keen on Metal Gear Online's multiplayer scene take note: The MEME expansion pack will officially careen onto servers on Nov. 25 (pre-order it on Nov. 18, if you wish), priced at a not-too-obscene $9.99. It'll also be bundled with the previous GENE pack for $14.99, ideal for players still lean on downloadable content for Hideo Kojima's epic most Byzantine.
Joining the battlefield (as seen in three new maps) are Mei Ling and perpetual source of mean, Liquid Ocelot. We look forward to shooting him in the, uh ... spleen?

Sony has come under fire for allegedly copying Sackboy costume designs from non-winning entries to a design competition held before the game was released.
Posters on the official PS forums pointed out uncanny similarities between their own submitted Sackboy designs and the new Sackboy costumes recently released for download.
Check out the similarities on the forum.
According to a Sony community man, it's all just a coincidence: "this was always going to be a possibility when we ran the costumer competition - releasing new costumes which are similar in theme to ones that were entered," said the rep under the alias Sam_Protagonist.
"Here's the fact of the matter," he went on: "The art team who are responsible for designing new original (ie unlicensed) costumes were involved at the very final stage of judging, by which time the number of entries had been whittled down to 10 from each batch of entries (Europe, Japan, USA).
"If at any time we take inspiration from a costume competition entry that didn't win overall we will contact the creator directly.
Sounds reasonable to us.

Sony marketing man John Koller has said that there are 14 million active PSN accounts.
PSN launched in November along with PS3 in US and Japan. Xbox Live launched on November 2002 on the first Xbox, and then in it's current guise on 360 in November 2005. That's quite a head start.
"PlayStation Network has truly hit its stride with unique downloadable games and a video delivery service featuring movies, TV shows, and original programming that you can watch in HD with your PS3, or bring with you on your PSP," said a pleased Koller.
"And with 14 million active accounts and 273 million pieces of content downloaded, we know that you're thirsting for this digital entertainment," he added. We think PSN accounts being completely free has a lot to do with the high sigh-up rate.
It's good news on the hardware front too. "There are nearly 17 million PS3 systems around the world, and in the United States, PS3 hardware sales are up nearly 100 percent from where we were at this time last year," gloated Koller in his PS Blog post, which pays tribute to PS3's second birthday yesterday. Happy birthday!

Sony has told Eurogamer that the wireless keypad for PlayStation 3 will launch here on 28th November for GBP 24.99.
This handy piece of hardware, unveiled during the Leipzig Games Convention, clips into Sixaxis and DualShock 3 controllers and apparently looks a bit like a Blackberry keyboard.
It also includes a touch-pad, like a laptop, that handles mouse input - which should make using the PS3 web-browser much easier.
On top of that, there are shortcut buttons for quick access to Communication and Message Box, ensuring navigation is short and snappy.
Look out for our thoughts on the wireless keypad closer to release.
