Also replace xxxxx by the name of the Language, in this example it's Spanish.

It's certainly one of the more innovative titles in development, but Sony believes Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet will also prove a big driver in hardware sales this autumn as the battle for market share intensifies.
With heavyweight franchises like Gears Of War, FIFA and Guitar Hero expected to dominate Q4, releasing an original IP during the year's busiest period is a gamble, but Sony is placing great faith in the UK-developed title, which invites users to "play, create and share" content locally and over PlayStation Network.
"Our target audience is everyone," explained associate producer Eric Fong, speaking to GamesIndustry.biz last month at Comic-Con 2008 in San Diego, where the game was being demonstrated to the public.
"It's got enough complexity that people can play it and enjoy it for many hours; at the same time, if you're just a casual user you can run through and play the game and have fun with it. Everything you see in the developer levels, you can create as the player."
Talking up the game's sales potential, he added: "It's going to be a hardware seller. Not only do you have the platforming experience that a lot of other games will have, you have this creativity that really is exclusive to LittleBigPlanet."
But some believe Sony's real challenge is in communicating the game's unique features to consumers, a point which Fong conceded. "How do you explain the game...without getting your hands on it? It's a difficult thing to do."
Therefore events like Comic-Con and Germany's Games Convention, which takes place later this month, have become a crucial part of Sony's aggressive consumer awareness campaign.
"We've been able to get it into the hands of the consumer and they're loving it," Fong said of the San Diego showing, where the LittleBigPlanet booth was well attended throughout the show.
LittleBigPlanet is due for release on PlayStation 3 in PAL territories this October, with a Japanese release confirmed for October 30th.

via Eurogamer
Capcom has stuck a "TBC" note on the PlayStation 3 version of Bionic Commando Rearmed, which we had hoped to see on 14th August.
That's when the US version releases - a day after the global launch of the downloadable platform shooter on Xbox Live Arcade.
But it looks like Sony's insistence on broad localisation has caught another Capcom game in its net - after similar delays to the PSN launches of Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 and 1942: Joint Strike.
Capcom confirmed to Eurogamer this morning that the game's PSN release is TBC, but recent comments by Sony Europe boss David Reeves presumably hold the clue to the answer.
"When the US launch, we could launch in Australia and we could launch in New Zealand and the UK, but if we did that then our colleagues in Italy and France and Germany and Spain would not be very happy, so we've chosen to stick to the strategy of doing it pan-European and pan-Australia and New Zealand," Reeves told us at E3.
Capcom wouldn't be drawn on a current release estimate for BCR on PSN in Europe, but the best-case scenario is a simple one-week delay. When it does launch, you'll be asked to pay GBP 6.99 / EUR 9.99.
Meanwhile, the PC version - due out on Steam, Direct2Drive, Gamer's Gate and other digital distribution platforms - is due worldwide on 14th August for USD 14.99.
Bionic Commando Rearmed is a reimagined version of classic NES title Bionic Commando in which players navigate 2D platform levels using a grappling hook rather than a jump button.
As well as a significant single-player game Rearmed includes a range of Challenge Rooms to test your grapple skills, along with local co-operative and four-player competitive multiplayer options.
Look out for our review next week and in the meantime check out our recent Bionic Commando Rearmed hands-on preview.

News/release from voldemort09
Prime Number Searcher is a homebrew developed by voldemort09, to calculate the maximum possible prime numbers, since the PSP.
What is a prime number?
A little math, it does not hurt.
A prime number is a number that can not admit that 2 dividers among the natural numbers (positive integers, such as 1,2,3,4 ...).
These dividers 2 and 1 being himself. A small example: 4 admits as dividers in natural: 1 (4 / 1 = 4), 2 (4 / 2 = 2), 4 (4 / 4 = 1), this is not a prime number. 2 admits as dividers in natural: 1 (2 / 1 = 2), 2 (2 / 2 = 1) is therefore a prime number.
Knowing that there's a infinities of prime numbers.
But what is it then that homebrew? It's simple, if you do not know if 983 is a prime number or not, you can draw your PSP!
At the same way that the homebrew which calculates the decimal point of Pi, it is interesting that on his algorithm.
The numbers are saved in PrimeNumberLOG.txt lying in the dossier PSPGAMEPrime Numbers Searcher of your Memory Stick.

Plenty of PSP love in the upcoming issue of Weekly Famitsu and Zero Chou Aniki is probably the weirdest of them all. The side-scrolling shooter series is “best known for its wacky humor and vivid, surreal imagery” (source: Wikipedia) and judging from reaction in the forums, it seems to be quite popular as well. The PSP version appears to be a remake of the very first game, Chou Aniki for PC Engine, with faithful recreation of the background art and featuring the in-game music that fans of the series will fondly remember. The release date is set for release early 2009 in Japan with NCS/extreme the developers.

We've recently had the chance to catch producer Ben Wilkins and Empire Interactive's Director of project management P.J. Snavely for a little Q&A session on their latest multiplat puzzle game, Pipe Mania. The game is a remake of the classic 1989 title with a legion of new game modes and gameplay features. Wilkins told us that this new Pipe Mania will keep the classic core gameplay and will emphasize on building on top of that by adding more content.
Speaking of adding more, the game is set to have 250-300 levels -- about three times more than the original. Levels are not randomized; they're all preset. Expect to see some classic levels. World mode (story mode) is the game's main course, taking players to themed areas like: sewers, railroads, a toy factory, and even the almighty internet. Arcade mode is described as a "never-ending series of puzzles" and the PSP's versus mode involves competitive head-to-head matches via "remote" (which we're assuming means infrastructure play). Wilkins noted that the PSP was the best fit for multiplayer, but was also the most difficult to work with in regards to the interface. The Wii, DS, and PC versions all have that original point-n-click interface, but the PSP and PS2 don't. You'll have to be "slightly less cavalier with your moves" said Wilkins.
Lastly, the duo made mention that a PSP demo will be available soon on the PS Store. That should come in good time as Pipe Mania is due out in North America by mid-September. Oddly enough, a price for the title is "still being determined."

Let's face it: you're a busy PS3 owner. You've got plenty of Blu-ray movies to watch, CDs to rip onto your system, photos to upload for slideshows, and 'Net browsing to do. Or perhaps you're just too absorbed in the latest PS3 game to hit the system to worry about all the digital content that's flooding the PSN every Thursday. Well, have no fear -- we'll take care of that for you. Every Thursday, we'll scour the recent updates for those gems that every PS3 owner should have residing on their system.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This week, players were presented with a lot of add-on content, along with an invite to the Home closed beta and an opportunity to become part of the Resistance 2 beta as well. Videos also flooded this week's update, along with Talkman Travel to help you when you go globetrotting. But let's stop wasting time…Here are this week's picks:
Qore Episode 03: August, 2008 ($2.99 Issue, $24.99 Annual Subscription)
File size: 1.34 GB
While we've been on the fence with Qore, this month's issue is definitely one to check out if you happen to be a shooter fan and an Annual Subscription holder because it will give you access to the Resistance 2 Beta. It also includes some mini-games and features on upcoming games.
Add-on Content
Snakeball Team Mode ($1.99)
We dug the release of Snakeball when it came out, and the addition of Team Mode only expands the experience with additional team-based fun. You can't go wrong with this extra for the price.
Game Videos
The Last Guy Behind The Scenes
File size: 587 MB (HD)
With tongue planted firmly in cheek, this behind the scenes video gives a quick view at the developers behind The Last Guy, a creative rescue title with maps and monsters. Other videos of note within the update include the latest Dead Space animated feature, Madden NFL 09 videos and E3 trailers of Home, Tomb Raider: Underworld and The Force Unleashed.
PS3 Themes
PlayStation Home Theme
File size: 4.02 MB
Not only does the PlayStation Home theme have a cool blueprint look to it, but it's also got an awesome extra attached: by downloading it, you are applying to become part of the upcoming closed Home beta. What are you waiting for? Go get it now!
PS3 Wallpaper
Tomb Raider: Underworld Mediterranean Shark Attack
File Size: 1MB
We liked all of the wallpapers, but we thought that the Tomb Raider wallpaper was great to showoff some of the action that Lara will face during her game. You should also check out the other wallpapers as well, particularly the third one which shows off many of the game characters.
PlayStation Store for the PC
Downloadable Games
Talkman Travel
Looking for a way to communicate in a foreign land, but you don't know the language? Check out Talkman Travel, which will help you express yourself in French, Italian or Japanese.
Game Videos
Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds 2 Characters and Courses Trailer
File Size: 6.36 MB
Trying to get a sense of the golfers you'll go against on the links? Check out this trailer where you'll be introduced to the faces and courses of Out of Bounds 2. All of the videos are good, but this one is a good way to know who's who in the popular sports game.

Alek has posted screens of all the known PSP motherboards on the market, from the article:
Here's a simple relation of all the known PSP Motherboards. There are different versions of them, but are just virtual ones, you won't find a difference printed on the board.
For the ones that don't know yet, Baryon is same as the syscon, and Tachyon is the chip that contains the ME, CPU,and VRAM decryption mask roms.

An article from DCEmu Coder Uberjack:
I have spent the last few days (weeks?) rewriting psplib into its successor library, libpl. Most importantly, graphics, font and image rendering core is being rewritten from scratch; it’s already significantly better than the older version. Among changes so far:
Faster bitmap font rendering (swizzled, VRAM-based fonts)
More accurate image resizing (no more scissoring artifacts, as most apparent in fMSX PSP)
Support for multiple pixel formats (instead of fixed 16-bit “5551″ format)
Future plans:
Support for swizzled images, in-place image swizzling
Completely new GUI system
Simple “upgrading” to libpl from psplib no longer seems possible; therefore, emulators will have to be largely rewritten to use the new library. Once the work is finished, I also hope to have some sample code available, in case anyone wants to write applications based off the library.
If you’re interested in the progress, you can find semi-nightly builds in the libpl directory, under the trunk branch of the svn repository. No promises on the code actually compiling (or doing anything useful, for that matter)
Many thanks to the ps2dev/psp forum folks for their helpful answers to many of my questions.

An article from DCEmu Coder Uberjack:
i must say I find myself pleasantly surprised by the fan base of the Sinclair Spectrum. Not only has the interest in Fuse PSP been immensely overwhelming since release, but the fans of the system appear to be a hardcore and dedicated bunch. There have been already over 500 downloads from my page alone; I regularly receive suggestions and bug reports (not too many of the latter, thankfully ), and the interest doesn’t seem to fade.
Anyway, it’s great to see a classic system still enjoy popularity decades after its release, and have such dedicated fans.

Mötley Crüe is on tour for Crüefest. So, of course, Rock Band will be releasing songs by bands on the tour in a 30 day sale where you can get each for a dollar. Songs include Mötley Crüe's “Face Down in the Dirt”, Buckcherry's “Rescue Me”, and Sixx:A.M. with “Life Is Beautiful”. The actual concert will, like the Rock Band tour, allow you to play the game as an opening act and meet with the stars themselves. And, what the hell, System of a Down will also have tracks for two bucks a pop, "B.Y.O.B" and "Toxicity".
I dunno if the Rock Band tour has the market cornered on people who want to be seen playing plastic instruments by the real McCoy, especially guys who have banged more women than you've known in your entire life. Still, I'm pretty excited for the SOAD songs, Toxicity in particular. I'd be more excited about the Sixx:A.M. song if I were into being serenaded with inspirational messages by a guy who once lapped up his own urine in front of Ozzy Osbourne, so there you go.
