Ever wanted to be able to play your PSP games on your television, but couldn't because you don't own an HD TV?? Well now you can, thanks to this nifty application, made by OldPrisoneR. (must own a Slim and Lite PSP)
What does this program do?
Its a plug-in that makes it possible to play with your PSP Slim and Lite by posting the image on a TV via the composite cable (not HD TV). Attention, the plug-in is under development and the version presented here is a beta.
With which firmwares is it compatible?
It was tested by the author on custom Firmware 3.80 m33-5 but it functions with Custom Firmwares higher. We tested it successfully on Custom firmware 3.93.
Bugs Known: Known Bugs:
*Warriors Orochi: it is necessary to activate the plug-in after having passed the loading screen if not then it will freeze the game.
*Silent Hill Origins: "specks" appear sometimes.
*Killzone: Makes noises on the images.
In all the cases, the author recommends to activate the plug-in only after finishing the loading of the game and after skipping the intro videos of the game. If there are problems with certain images, try pressing the "Home" button several times.
How to install this?
*Download “FUSED” for PSP
*Connect your PSP to your computer via USB
*Put your PSP in “USB Mode”
*Extract the files
*Choose your PSP drive
*Copy the "seplugins" folder to your memory stick's root
*Open the file GAME.txt and add the following line:
ms0:/seplugins/FuSa.prx
*Go into recovery and enable the plugin
How to activate it?
Once you have your game started, press the volume buttons "+" and "-" and hold for a small moment. This activates the menu:
*Composite cable inserted: Indicates if a cable is connected
*Disable Plug-in: Disables the plug-in
*Switch to TV: switch between TV and LCD (you can also press the SCREEN button to switch to LCD)
*Speed Booster []: Enables SPEED BOOSTER feature (see more info below)
*Grab VRAM to VRAM.bin: recover the contents of the VRAM to write it in a VRAM.bin file (which can be explored with the suitable tool) - a function for the devs.
*EXIT MENU: Exit the menu (you can also press circle to exit immediately)
COMPATIBLE GAMES:
Commercial Games:
Twisted Metal
Echochrome
DownStream Panic
FlatOut
God of War: Chains of Olympus
Silent Hill: Origins
Homebrew:
NesterJ
DGEN (You must turn vsync off in it's settings)
FuSa has a feature called "SPEED BOOSTER", which makes games to work by speeding them up.You can enable it in MENU, but you will not be able to disable it.
This mode makes it possible to play the following games:
Patapon
Pursuit Force
Daxter
Off Road
Game(s) that do not work with "SPEED BOOSTER":
Warriors Orochi
Quite a bit of info, huh? Ready to try the app yourself, then click on the download below. Enjoy!

GTA IV producer Leslie Benzies has estimated that the game cost Rockstar approximately USD 100 million to create.
In an interview with the Times Online, Benzies also said that more than 1000 people worked on the title for a period of over a three and a half years.
If the figure is correct, GTA IV's development costs would make it the most expensive game ever made - topping the USD 70 million+ development budget for Sega's Shenmue for the Dreamcast.
GTA IV, however, has already sold over 600,000 copies on the first day in the UK alone and analysts have predicted that the game could gross more than USD 400 million in its first week.
Benzies also noted that much of the beating Rockstar has taken over the past three years - by the government and the press - comes from people who haven't played the game.
Why do people object to a game they haven't even played?
"You kill prostitutes," he told the Times Online. "That's usually the objection."
"There is a big fear factor here. It's the coming of the railways. It's Elvis shaking his hips. It's cars going over 25 miles an hour and making people explode."

Sony in Australia has told Gizmodo that PlayTV - the PS3's USB TV tuner and video-recording add-on - will launch there in Q4 2008.
The device's launch will probably be bit more complicated than a standard game launch, but you would still expect relative parity among PAL regions, and this has prompted speculation in some quarters that we'll be waiting a while for PlayTV too. Here, for example.
This wasn't helped recently by Sony's refusal to clarify reports of a 31st July date and the absence so far of a more detailed estimate than sometime in 2008.
When we spoke to SCEE this week, a spokesperson offered some hope: "We have not yet announced a release date or pricing for PlayTV in the UK, but will have more information shortly," we were told.
That could mean we will see an announcement during next week's PlayStation Day event in London, when SCE president Kaz Hirai and European boss David Reeves will deliver a press conference expected to detail plans for the rest of 2008.
PlayTV, announced last year, allows PS3 owners to record TV programmes on the PS3 hard disk and watch another TV channel at the same time.
Pricing has yet to be announced for the add-on - a USB block in the shape of a sunglasses case - but the most important detail for prospective buyers is whether or not you can record TV while you play games, and Sony is currently trying to achieve this without impacting gameplay.
Check out our PlayTV preview for more on that issue - including comments from Sony's Cambridge studio developers - as well as details on how it's implemented.

Fancy a headache? Course you do. Sony's mind-melting puzzler, Echochrome, is out on the US PSN today for your self-harming pleasure.
In case you've not been following it, Echochrome is an innovative little title which sees you rotating simple 3D environments to create paths for a little walking make to traverse.
It uses a clever optical illusion mechanic, where obstacles like holes or gaps in the path disappear when you can't see them. It hurts just trying to explain it... just download the currently-available demo.
Unfortunately for UK gamers, that might not be for another week or so, as Sony UK is yet to announce a UK date for the quirky little title.
There are two versions being release, one for PS3 on the PS Store, and one for PSP on the PC Store for PSP - each version with its own 56 levels and both costing $9.99.

Owners of PlayStation 3 consoles in the US are using their consoles to play Blu-ray disc movies in increasing numbers according to research done by Warner Home Video.
During the final quarter of 2007, PS3 households spent 15 per cent of their PS3 time watching Blu-ray movies. In January and February, the proportion increased to 23 per cent.
The research, revealed at the PEVE Digital Entertainment conference in Paris as reported by Screen Digest, also indicated that the proportion of US PS3 household using the console as a Blu-ray movie player had risen from 53 per cent in September 2007 to 80 per cent in the first two months of 2008.
Warner Home Video president Ron Sanders said that, following a Sony TV ad campaign encouraging the use of PS3 consoles to watch movies, the proportion of PS3 households purchasing Blu-ray discs rose from less than 10 per cent in October 2007 to over 15 per cent in December - suggesting that Sony's advertising had an impact.
Screen Digest senior analyst Helen Davis Jayalath, however, notes that the timing of Warner's research makes it impossible to quantify how much of an effect the Christmas gift-giving season would have had on Blu-ray spending without Sony's promotions.
"Furthermore, the relative lack of strong games titles for the PS3 over this period is also likely to have contributed to the console's use as a BD player," she wrote.
Nonetheless, Jayalath noted that the size of the PS3 installed base means that even a minimal increase in average per household Blu-ray disc purchase rates could substantially impact total hi-def media sales.

The watch-dog group Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) has set its sights on the rating of GTA IV, primarily because a player can drive drunk in the game. MADD released a statement saying that 'Drunk driving is not a game, and it is not a joke. Drunk driving is a choice, a violent crime and it is also 100 percent preventable.' MADD also is asking Rockstar Games to consider removing GTA IV from distribution 'out of respect for the millions of victims/survivors of drunk driving.' Rockstar replied to MADD by saying 'we have a great deal of respect for MADD's mission, but we believe the mature audience for "Grand Theft Auto IV" is more than sophisticated enough to understand the game's content.' As expected, Jack Thompson is making his usual attention-whoring remarks by comparing GTA IV to the polio virus

Sony has told Eurogamer that it has made no announcements about the LittleBigPlanet beta dates so far.
It was responding after comments from producer Kyle Schubel from Sony in the land of America, who told PSU that a closed beta for the game would begin this summer.
"I'm afraid we haven't yet made any announcements as to the dates of the LittleBigPlanet beta trials, and are not yet able to confirm a specific month," a spokesperson for Sony Europe told us. "In terms of the game's release date, we are still tracking a September launch."
Kyle Schubel also outed that around one million user-created levels will fit onto one planet in the game, and that there will be multiple planets.
You will also be able to filter content by popularity, upload date, what your friends have been playing and ratings.
LittleBigPlanet is the second most wanted game on the whole of Eurogamer, and has evidently won you around with its elaborate tool-set premise where you can build your own adventure for your little sack creature people things.

How big is Metal Gear Solid 4? The correct answer is, "big enough to get two hardware bundles."
That's just what Sony and Konami are preparing for the game over in Japan. Konami already unveiled the first MGS4 bundle a few weeks back. Today, Sony unveiled the PlayStation 3 Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots Welcome Box with Dual Shock 3, a package that bundles the standard version of MGS4 with a standard 40 gigabyte PS3 unit and throws in a DUALSHOCK 3 controller to complement the included SIXAXIS.
Sony will be making the bundle available in Clear Black, Ceramic White, and Satin Silver, with the included Dual Shock 3 matching the system's color. Pricing is set at 49,980 yen, a savings of around 4,480 yen over the price of buying the Dual Shock 3, PS3 and a copy of MGS4 separately.
The Konami bundle, known as the game's Premium Pack, includes the game's Special Edition, a special "steel" color of the PS3 system, and a Dual Shock 3, all for 51,800 yen. It's missing the SIXAXIS, but it has the bonus goodies from the Special Edition of the title.
All bundles and variations will be available in Japan on June 12.

We've been trying to get answers this week for those GTA IV players who've been experiencing freeze-ups with the title. Our very unscientific poll has shown that although many of you are enjoying the game without issue, a small percentage are experiencing problems -- and a "small percentage" of the millions who bought GTA IV actually ends up being a lot of people. Although Rockstar has so far not responded to the issue, Gamespot received a "fix" from Take-Two's tech support team.
The 12-part "fix" Gamespot received involves steps like: erasing the install data, deleting the game saves, disabling PS3 internet connectivity, disabling the console's information board, deleting the system's internet cache and much more. For its part, Sony says the issue is affecting "a limited number of PS3s" and its working with customers to resolve the problem. Microsoft has yet to acknowledge any freezing issues.

The Ben 10 show on Cartoon Network is headed for the interactive realm, as D3Publisher today announced it's working on Ben 10: Alien Force The Game, the follow-up to last year's Ben 10: Protector of Earth. The game will ship this fall.
Ben 10: Alien Force The Game, a side-scrolling action adventure game, is scheduled to ship for Nintendo's Wii and DS and Sony's PlayStation 2 and PSP.
Ben 10: Alien Force The Game begins five years after Ben put away the DNA-scrambling Omnitrix, but now Grandpa Max has gone missing, and planet Earth is in grave danger. Gamers must help Ben take the Omnitrix out of retirement and lead eight different playable characters -- including cousin Gwen, enemy-turned-ally Kevin Levin and five of Ben's new alien forms -- using their super powers to defeat the intergalactic invaders.
In the game, players will encounter more than 20 types of enemies, including Highbreed invaders and DNAliens. As Ben, players can take Ben's new alien forms Swampfire, Jet Ray, Humungousaur, Spidermonkey and Big Chill, each of which has different powers to manipulate fire, swim underwater, grow more than 60 feet tall, stick to walls and fly at mach speed.
Gamers will also harness cousin Gwen's new talent to create an energy shield and use it to protect and attack, as well as Kevin Levin's ability to absorb materials like concrete, wood and metal to create an impenetrable shell on his body.
The Nintendo DS version will offer alternate playable alien forms including Goop and Echo Echo, giving players additional unique powers to command and explore.

Sony Computer Entertainment America has announced sales of PlayStation 3 have been boosted in the US following the release of Grand Theft Auto IV.
However, the company hasn't issued any specific figures. Instead there's just a statement from Bob McKenzie, bigwig at top shop GameStop.
"From our position, the launch of GTA IV has been tremendous in driving traffic to our stores, as well as providing a vigorous lift in PS3 console sales over this time last week," McKenzie said.
"We attribute the growth to a huge fan base of PS2 owners who see this title as the trigger for the PS3 upgrade they've been planning."
Meanwhile, leading industry clairvoyant Michael Pachter has been at the tarot again. "I think brand loyalty is going to kick in for Sony, starting today," he said, placing the card marked BRAND LOYALTY on the table.
"There is a huge installed base of loyal PlayStation 2 owners who have been looking for a reason to upgrade, and they have strong previous ties to the Grand Theft Auto franchise on PlayStation platforms."
Remember when GTA was PlayStation-exclusive? Also we've got some other good games honest! So spoke Sony's Peter Dille. Or more specifically: "Grand Theft Auto fans who love the game grew up on PlayStation and we believe that rich heritage will be a deciding factor for many gamers at retail.
"This enthusiasm for GTA IV, combined with the excitement behind Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Metal Gear Solid 4, LittleBigPlanet, and Resistance 2 will further drive PS3 hardware sales." But Peter, you forgot Afrika!
NPD has yet to release sales figures for GTA IV, but the game has broken records in the UK - with 609,000 copies sold on the first day of release.

A new MGS 4 trailer hints at the revival of scenes from the original Metal Gear Solid game in this summer's PS3 blockbuster.
The trailer starts off like with retrospective footage of the original PS1 game, as Snake sneaks into the front of the Shadow Moses facility, before moving onto clips from the 2003 GameCube remake, and the Shadow Moses level in the recent Super Smash Bros. Brawl on Wii.
Then, it asks: "This year, MGS revived?" followed by Snake working his way through what appears to be an updated Shadow Moses scene.
This seemingly playable scene turns out to be a dream, as the trailer then flashes back to modern-day older Snake, who snaps out of a trance.
So will you be able to play the original game, or scenes from it at least, in MGS 4?
"All will be revealed in coming weeks," a Konami spokesperson told CVG, keeping it all shrouded in mystery.
Check out the footage for yourself here.

D3Publisher of America, Inc. (D3PA), a publisher and developer of interactive entertainment software, will bring Cartoon Network's next generation series Ben 10: Alien Force to videogame systems with Ben 10: Alien Force The Game on the Wii home videogame system, PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, Nintendo DS system and PSP (PlayStation Portable) system. The successful inaugural game for the brand, Ben 10: Protector of Earth, launched in October 2007 and has sold more than one million units worldwide. Based on the next generation television series launched on Cartoon Network last month, Ben 10: Alien Force The Game begins five years after Ben put away the DNA-scrambling Omnitrix, but now Grandpa Max has gone missing and the planet Earth is in grave danger. Gamers must help Ben take the Omnitrix out of retirement and lead eight different playable characters-including cousin Gwen, enemy-turned-ally Kevin Levin and five of Ben's brand new alien forms-to utilize their all-new super powers and defeat the intergalactic invaders! Ben 10: Alien Force -- The Game is slated to ship to retail outlets across North America in fall 2008.
"Ben 10: Alien Force The Game is the only console videogame that allows players to take command of the Alien Force team to authentically control and experience their brand-new superpowers," said Alison Quirion, vice president of marketing, D3PA. "Based on fans' warm reception of Ben's newest adventures and the impressive million-plus unit sales of the first Ben 10 videogame, we're confident that our latest collaboration with Cartoon Network on Ben 10: Alien Force The Game will prove even more successful."
"Ben 10: Alien Force set records as the most-watched original series premiere in Cartoon Network's history, winning its timeslot when it debuted, and each week the series continues to grow as destination viewing for kids," said Christina Miller, vice president of consumer products for Cartoon Network Enterprises. "The release of Ben 10: Alien Force The Game this fall will build upon the success of the first videogame by expanding fans' experience with the brand and giving them a new battle to win with Ben."
In Ben 10: Alien Force The Game, players work to find Grandpa Max and stop a diabolical Highbreed alien plot as they battle more than 20 types of enemies, including Highbreed invaders and DNAliens. Gamers take control of Ben and his new alien forms Swampfire, Jet Ray, Humungousaur, Spidermonkey and Big Chill to employ distinctly different and complex powers to manipulate fire, swim underwater, grow more than 60 feet tall, stick to walls, fly at mach speed, plus lots more! Gamers will also harness cousin Gwen's new talent to create an energy shield and use it to protect and attack, as well as Kevin Levin's ability to absorb materials like concrete, wood and metal to create an impenetrable shell on his body. Ben 10: Alien Force The Game is a fast-paced, 3D side-scrolling action adventure that offers eight playable characters, an unlimited combo system and puzzles and challenges that will engage players of all levels for hours at a time. The Nintendo DS version will offer alternate playable alien forms including Goop and Echo Echo, giving players additional unique powers to command and explore.

Ptek has been updating the port of Doom to the PS2:
Time for an update.
I fixed some issues preventing the configuration loading at startup and saving at exit, so at last you can permanently backup your Doom configuration. The config file is saved at memory card 1 (mc0 OOM/boom.cfg) when exiting using the Quit option from de menu.
I also added the option to force a specific display mode (PAL or NTSC) for whom needs it - So just rename the DOOM.ELF to something ending with PAL or NTSC at the name (for example : DOOM_PAL.ELF or DOOM_NTSC.ELF).

The new functionalities:

theb1rdm4n has a brand new Homebrew Idol-ified version of his shooter up for grabs… After playing a few intensified levels and calling it quits, you’ll soon be re-launching “Birdman’s Shooter” with the mentality of destroying your previous high score; it’ll do that. I’m going back in for more — right after taking this opportunity to calm myself and share version 1.3 with y’all first.
What’s theb1rdm4n gotta say?
It is loosely based off of the game Galaga. The game pits you against endless waves of enemies that get harder as the game goes on. Every 8 levels there is a bonus level and the enemies get harder, but the enemy count resets back to level one and continues to grow every level. If you perfect a bonus level you get an extra life and bonus points. Scores grow exponentially as the current level and difficulty increase. Scores are also slightly based off of your accuracy, so the more accurate you are, the higher your score will be.
Birdman’s Shooter v1.3 highlights:
A sleek new interface
Gameover screen changed
New options screen
Options and high scores are saved
10 backgrounds, 5 bullet colors, and 11 player’s ship colors
New high score table that displays: score, level, and accuracy for top 10
Completely revamped scoring system
New power-up that slows enemies for a few seconds
New loading screen with loading bar
New bonus level with stats screen

Here I get out this new version of the LibGE passing therefore version 0.2.
First you can see a marked improvement in performance (+30 ~ 40 fps). The great novelty is that you can write with TTF!

All functions are described in the readme file, written in french.
Download link: Lib Graphic Engine v0.2
To install it, you simply copy files from the archive into the right files pspdev (pspdev / psp / include / libge / *. h and pspdev / psp / lib / libge.a).
To use it must include the file libge / ggraphic.h as:
Code:
# include <libge/ggraphic.h>
Then ajouterCitation:

the line LIBS = your Makefile.

Yeah, that fancy press shot has a certain beauty to it, but there's just nothing like spotting a highly coveted console in the wild. Thanks to our cameraphone toting tipster in Belgium, we're presented with the first image of the GTA IV bundle sitting on a shelf just waiting for someone to trade their €450 in and take it home. Oh, and if you're wondering what type of shop places a sweet PS3 beside an assortment of blank media, a coffee mug and what appears to be a CRT television circa 1990, it's Free Record Shop in Antwerp, sucka.

Now that the Dual Shock 3 is finally here, it looks like Sony's finding creative way to dump off old SIXAXIS stock -- like tossing 'em in MGS4 PS3 bundles. Japanese PS3 buyers will be able to choose from three "Welcome Box" MGS4 bundles in Satin Silver, Ceramic White, and Clear Black, and in addition to Snake's latest adventure and a Dual Shock 3, they'll find a SIXAXIS inside. The bundles will cost ¥49,800 ($470), compared to ¥51,800 ($492) for the gunmetal gray bundle that doesn't include the extra controller, so basically Sony's giving Japanese buyers $20 to take a SIXAXIS home. That's quite a deal, but honestly, we'd rather take drop the Jackson on that super-hot gunmetal unit home than have another (obsolete) controller lying around.

New from SuccessHK
The PSP Pandora battery allows you to put the PSP into service mode so that you are able to recover a PSP from a bad flash or downgrade your firmware. The PSP Pandora battery is by far the easiest way to recover your PSP console from a bad flash as well as downgrading. Until now you would need to install chips like the PSP U.P to recover a bad flash, not anymore using the PSP Pandora Battery. It is also worth noting that you can use the PSP Pandora Battery hack on a PSP Slim, having a pre hacked battery is a necessity as PSP Slim cannot run homebrew unless it has been downgraded.
The Pandora Battery is a bulk pack, and it is easy to use: simply insert the magic memory stick into your PSP, then insert the Pandora Battery and follow the simple on-screen instructions. The instructions are also included with the Pandora Battery.
It is for your PSP Slim only,and will fix it 100%.
Price:USD 20.00

Sony Corp's operating profit likely jumped more than fivefold to 380 billion yen on strong sales of digital cameras in the year just ended, but it missed the company's forecast by 30 billion yen, the Nikkei business daily reported.
That would also be below a consensus estimate of 393.6 billion yen in a poll of 17 analysts by Reuters Estimates.
Sony's videogame division saw its operating loss shrink by about 100 billion yen in the year ended March 2008, helping boost overall profitability, the Nikkei said.
The game unit posted an operating loss of 232 billion yen in the year ended March 2007 due to hefty start-up costs for its PlayStation 3 game console.

Even with the Japanese delay, the Skype functionality has been available worldwide for a few months now. It appears Sony is just now bringing an official PSP-2000 Skype headset to Japan, complete with a remote control. The headset can still be used with the original PSP, as a pair of headphones, but the specific input on the upcoming microphone will only fit the PSP Slim model.
Coming next month, this headset will be compatible with Skype and Talkman software, for 3,800 yen. The official model number is PSPJ-15012.

In the article Why a custom firmware 3.93 rather than 3.95?, We explained that 3.95 was regarded as no great novelty and interest. However, if the tip of the iceberg did actually nothing much exciting, the hidden part has been modified to slow the creation of a possible Custom Firmware thanks to changes in address NIDS encryption PRX.
Today is therefore encryption PRX which was broken and the firmware has delivered its entrails shameless.
This does not always say that a Custom firmware 3.95 will see the light of day because there is still addresses NIDS is to find and hard work for little additions to this 3.95. Above all, as stated in the previous news, it will probably be completely redone for the firmware 4.0.
In the hours ahead, we will put online a version of Psardumper able to decipher the 3.95 to puisiez that you yourself have fun with it.
You probably lack a name to put on those who made this feat. Again, our fetish programmer, is behind this discovery and we already preparing a release so that you can play alone with the files of 3.95. Stay in line!
Please note that this information was published after informing MathieuLH and received his agreement for broadcast.
Arent translations great
Basically we may see a release to support the official 3.95 firmware

Ketchup has released an update to his PSP Custom Firmware 3.93 (and you need to have that installed to install the update)
translation follows:
-- Correction "bug Select". This bug was reported by all users: When the keyboard Sony appears, pressing Select, it freezait the console. This has been corrected.

Between the comprehensive in-game map, the GPS-imbued minimap, and the TomTom-esque functionality of certain vehicles, we've yet to misplace ourselves within Liberty City's digital boroughs. Still, if you find yourself lost whilst playing Grand Theft Auto IV, we guess this Liberty City map application (mapplication?) using the Google Maps interface would come in handy.
A number of user contributions have already been made to the map, showing the location of hidden items, easter eggs, pigeon locations, stunt jumps, and yes, even hookers, whom we assume were fitted with GPS locaters by trained prostitute handlers before being released back into the wild. It makes for a useful cartographical companion for those with a laptop near their console of choice -- if you don't mind ruining the fun of exploring the nooks and crannies of Rockstar's intricately crafted metropolis for yourself, that is.

Charnold has released a new version of his PSP Dungeons: Assault Run Game and Editor.
Heres whats new:
05-02-2008 Version 1.0.3
- some internal map format changes: the map editor can open the old versions, but the game can't (so open the map in the editor and goto file / create game format)
editor changes:
- bug removed when opening a map that has fewer mapareas than the currently selected maparea (now the current maparea after opening a map is always the first)
new property per component: is level-exit (yes/no)
- when the player collides with this component, the current map is deleted from memory and the next map is loaded (the map names must be map001.d2, map002.d2, map003.d2...).
- when a map has a level exit and there is no next map, the map001.d2 is loaded again
- when the next map has a different modelpack, the md3 models are also deleted and loaded
game changes:
- config.txt file (in system folder), here you can set vsync on/off and change the titlescreen text
- particle effect when hitting enemies

Here is an update to the new rail shooter that I'm working on for psp-hacks.com Homebrew Idol Competition.
Resonate is a fast paced undersea rail shooter. Your goal is to evolve into
a thresher shark and become king of the ocean. On normal difficulty the
player starts as a Sea Urchin (level 2). Hit the blue striped
targets to collect evolution up. Collect eight and move up a level to Sea
Horse (level 3). Miss a target that collides with you and move down to
Zooplankton (level 1). If you're hit too many times, the adventure ends
and you need to try again.
Features
- five hero forms: Zooplankton, Sea Urchin, Seahorse, Stingray, Thresher Shark
- high score tracking for each game
- enemies in various attack formations
- three kinds of power ups
- level editor for Windows, Linux or MacOS based on fltk and OpenGL

News/release from Yan2yan
This is the final version of my lib TimeManager, which allows management easier time in C / C + +.
The problem with the C library is that you can not create a timer at a time, this is becoming embarrassing if one wants to create several. And that's where POO makes sense: C + +, it is no longer limited to a single timer, you can create as you want!
Downloads:
TimeManager - Lib C
TimeManager - Class C + +
TimeManager - Sample C
Note that I did not compile the C + +, because it can serve as a basis for understanding the POO
Also note that I still maintained the C lib, add a few new features listed below.
What's new?
-- Can stop the timer
-- The possibility of recovering the time in hours and minutes
With the C + +, you are no longer limited to a single timer
How you use them?
In C, eboot an example, as well as the header should be sufficient to understand the workings
In C + +, it must first include the header:
Code:
# include "timeManager.h"
Then, out of loop, we create our purpose timer:
Code:
timer_TimeManager Timer;
Then you will have access to all available functions in the header:
Code:
Void timer_start ();
Void timer_stop ();
Void timer_reset ();
Void timer_startPause ();
Void timer_endPause ();
u64 timer_getTimeMicroSec ();
u64 timer_getTimeMilliSec ();
u64 timer_getTimeSec ();
u64 timer_getTimeMin ();
u64 timer_getTimeHours ();
It is used as follows:
Code:
Timer.timer_start ();
And so on ...

New Zealand's Office of Film and Literature had to reiterate this week that store clerks can't sell Grand Theft Auto IV to parents purchasing it for their children. The New Zealand Herald reports the office had to repeat itself after receiving calls from clerks who didn't know what to do when a parent "demanded" to buy GTA IV with their 14-year-old in tow.
GTA IV is rated R18 by the New Zealand government and it's illegal to make it available to anyone under that age. In New Zealand, even if it's their own kid, the adult could be jailed for 90 days or pay $10,000 fine; however, the law has never been enforced.

May 5th, 2008, 20:35 Posted By: wraggster
A lot of New Yorkers, myself included, are getting a little extra kick out of the vibe of Grand Theft Auto IV's Liberty City, which recalls our home boroughs with just enough accuracy to be disorienting.
The farmacias and bodegas in East Holland, the Starbucks-esque cup in every hand, the prevalence of "Craplist" social interaction, even the thriving Russian community beside the boardwalk in Hove Beach where the story begins all capture that tickly feeling of home. But MTV Multiplayer's Stephen Totilo notes that from Bohan to Schottler, there are a few things about New York that GTA IV gets wrong, and he's compiled a tongue-in-cheek list of eight key items that are, as he says, "grossly misrepresented."
1. We are not a car town: No sensible New Yorker uses a car as their primary means of transportation in the city, unless — maybe — they commute from the suburbs. Car ownership doesn't make much sense. There are never any parking spots. Parking garages are prohibitively expensive. And, most importantly, the subway is a faster, cheaper and more efficient means of transportation. We don't drive here. Niko, to be a real New Yorker, should rely on the subway. But what would he be left to grandly thieve?
True enough. Certainly, in New York, only rich commuters who live in swanky penthouses or in the outlying boroughs have cars. Rent here for the average denizen is pricey enough without the cost of gas and parking — and, that aside, I'd never even think of owning a car here just due to the crushing traffic and inconvenience.
But there are a lot of cars here nonetheless, and having been many times a pedestrian nearly clipped by some crazy speeder cornering badly, it's a fun turnabout to be behind the wheel this time. If you do happen to be in a car, people always seem to be wandering into the crosswalk at the worst of times — that, at least, is accurate.
Totilo picks more hangups: There are no dinosaurs at the Met! Times Square — er, Star Junction — should be much more congested with pedestrians, it's true. And bagels are a quintessential part of our diet, unobtainable in Liberty City.
8. We eat bagels: Have I missed something or is it not possible to eat a bagel in "Grand Theft Auto IV"'s Liberty City? Niko can eat burgers, hot dogs and go to diners. But bagels? The most famous New York City food? Never fear, visitors to our town, we have bagels that can be eaten and enjoyed, whether Liberty City acknowledges it or not. Burgers? Waste of time. You can eat them in any town.
Two more that he missed: First, why do Liberty City's pedestrians walk so slowly? You can always spot a tourist as the one who's ambling casually down the sidewalk, neck craned upward to eyeball the skyscrapers. But real New Yorkers, everyone knows, walk at a breakneck pace, head down, heedless of who they shoulder aside, as we are all on the way to someplace very important and you'd better get out of the way.
And finally, where are Manhat— um, Algonquin's legions of tiny, tiny little doggies? It's the must-have accessory for Upper East Siders. We don't mean to quibble with such a fantastic game world, but, you know.

BLU-RAY PLAYER SALES are sucking wind as well they should. According to Cnet, sales of the DRM infected format players are dropping like rocks.
The not so bright people out there had expected sales to skyrocket once the format war was done, but it didn't. They thought was people would ignore the massive defects of Blu-ray and buy like the dumb sheep that they are, handcuffing themselves to the Sony bank account.
Surprise, it didn't happen. US consumers are still dumb sheep, but this time they are realizing what is being done to them and they aren't biting. Sony's hope of having 50% of disc sales this year be Blu-ray are more likely to happen because of falling DVD sales than rocketing Blu-ray.
The format has three problems, DRM infections, BD-J and greed. The greed part is obvious, Sony won the format war and are trying to charge people between 50 and 100% more for a product with marginally better quality. Sure, it looks better, and the 0.07% of people with 7.1 channel audio setups will be overjoyed, but for the rest, it is a small step at best over an upconverting DVD.
Are you going to buy the DVD version for $16.99 on new release sale or $29.99 for the BD? It doesn't take a genius to realize that the next iteration of Hollywood Formula #7 with Big Stars #3 and #8 isn't worth it. The movie studios have yet to convince me that The Water Horse is worth spending my money on at all, much less at twice the price for DRM'd HD versions.
That brings us to the next down side, there is no up, DRM. Every Blu-ray disc is DRM infected even if the producer doesn't want it to be, in order to get a company to manufacture it, it must be infected. Sony gets an infection kickback fee as well, so don't think it is purely for protection unless you mean it in the -racket sense.
Blu-ray DRM infections do not protect anything, Slysoft has cracked it with their excellent AnyDVD HD product, something I can't recommend enough. Basically, new DRM schemes are broken before you can buy discs with them on it, protecting nothing. It will however prevent legitimate users from using legally purchased media on legally purchased hardware. If you pirate though, no more compatibility issues, once again making Piracy the Better Choice (TM)(C)(R).
Basically the new format has DRM baked in and in your face. It costs you money, hurts only legitimate users, and is laughably insecure. Until it is abolished, just say no to Blu-ray and spend your money elsewhere, try books for example. If you must stoop to the DRM infected media, crack it and run it from your HD, it will save you immense frustration.
The last thing that makes people want to run for the hills is the badly broken BD-J abomination. Basically, when Blu-ray was 'finished', it wasn't close to done. HD-DVD on the other hand was well thought out and thorough, HD had a robust virtual machine that did all the work it needed to, and BD had none. Sony rushed a hacked BD v1.1 out, followed by 2.0, and instantly obsoleted all the money spent by the early adopters. All except those who bought Sony players of course.
There are two problems with this, other than the fact that morons spent money on a Sony format, it works like crap and it phones home, both comprise the third negative. Working like crap is the obvious one, to test it, look at one of the flagship titles, Pirates of the Caribbean 3. Disney insists on BD-J, customer be damned, and it shows. If you click on any of the options from the title menu, it pauses, you hear the disc seek, you wait, it loads, you wait more, and it decrypts, you wait a little more, and then the menu animates. It is nothing short of a disaster that you can't skip. Unless you pirate the title, once a gain making piracy the better choice (TM)(R)(C).
In any case, the BD-J support is so half-assed and broken that using it is nothing less than misery, but you also get the BD benefits as well. That is incompatibility and higher prices to soothe you while you wait and wait and wait. Whoever forced this on people should be shot.
The other down side is that to support the so called Profile 2.0, you must have internet capabilities and access. Anyone here trust Sony? Remember, these are the people who unashamedly rootkit paying customers and then tries as hard as they can to bury it, but never apologizes.
With the new BD Profile 2.0, they can run arbitrary code on your player, download and install whatever they want (You read the EULA didn't you?), and take any data they want. In return, you get the privilege of watching your legally purchased media on your legally purchased players. Fair trade, right? Once again, Piracy is the Better Choice(R)(TM)(C), it doesn't rat you out to unrepentant rootkitters even if they have a EULA behind them this time.
In the end, if you buy Blu-ray, you get a more expensive product that is likely incompatible with your hardware, DRM'd to the hilt, slow as dirt and it rats you out for good measure. All this for slightly better rez, be still my beating heart. Player sales are tanking when they should be soaring and Sony is probably wondering why.

Developer D2C Games (founded by Madden veteran Scott Orr), which announced $6 million in funding in mid-2007, has announced SPOGS Racing, a "frenzied, arcade-style" racing game to debut on WiiWare.
Gamasutra talked to Orr about why firm picked Wii's downloadable service over the others, and why he thinks the PSP platform is "a sleeping giant" in terms of possible sales.
You've chosen WiiWare rather than, say, Xbox Live or PSN -- why?
SO: Wii is a true mass-market platform that appeals to gamers of all ages and capabilities and is the perfect fit for the kind of games we’re developing and publishing. Yes, Wii has shown that easy-to-play games that are fun and encourage social gameplay can be very successful in a world of high-end platforms and games.
We also believe the PSP is well suited to this type of game which unfortunately has not been typical of UMD offerings to date. In fact, I believe given its installed base and increasingly strong sales, the PSP platform is a sleeping giant just waiting for the right kind of content that’s value priced and easily obtainable.
As for Xbox Live and PSN, we’ll continue to monitor their development. We are very encouraged by the success of Live, which shows that even hard-core players will pay for and play simple games that appeal to them, which up to this point have mostly been lacking in originality.

via IGN
Harmonix and MTV announced today that PS2 and Wii owners will be getting their first blast of added tracks for Rock Band in just a couple months, as Rock Band Track Pack Volume 1 is set to debut on July 15th, 2008 on both systems. This song pack features 20 tracks for $29.99, and features select songs already available for download on the core Rock Band versions.
Gamers wondered how both PS2 and Wii would receive new track updates, and we've got the answer now. As a note on pricing, the $30 tag for 20 tracks is a bargain over the single track downloads, which begin at $1.99 a song on both 360 and PS3 until they drop in price to a buck even. Track Pack Volume 1 prices each track at $1.50 total, so as long as you dig the music, you're getting a deal.
The track listing is as follows:
* 30 Seconds to Mars - The Kill
* All American Rejects - Move Along
* Blink – 182 - All the Small Things
* Boston - More Than a Feeling
* David Bowie - Moonage Daydream
* Faith No More - We Care A Lot
* Grateful Dead - Truckin'
* The Hives - Die, All Right!
* KISS - Calling Dr. Love
* Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme' Three Steps
* Nine Inch Nails - March of the Pigs
* Oasis - Live Forever
* Paramore - Crushcrushcrush
* The Police - Synchronicity II
* Queens of the Stone Age - Little Sister
* Ramones - Teenage Lobotomy
* Smashing Pumpkins - Siva
* Stone Temple Pilots - Interstate Love Song
* Weezer - Buddy Holly
* Wolfmother - Joker & the Thief
All 20 tracks utilize original master recordings.

SouthPeak Games announced today that it will distribute B-Boy for PlayStation 2 computer and entertainment system and PSP (PlayStation Portable) system in the U.S this summer. B-Boy allows players to prove their skills as they challenge the world's greatest breakdancers.
"B-Boy is the only game that gives players the opportunity to become premiere breakers," said Katie Morgan, Executive Vice President at SouthPeak Games. "The game's fantastic playability, dead-on authenticity and high production values give it a style all its own. While it remains true to its roots of the scene, it maintains a feel that gamers will love."
B-Boy continuously challenges players as they progress from low key neighborhood street battles all the way to high stakes world championships. While working on their skills, they will also have to confront obstacles such as building their crew and their rep by battling real-life b-boys from Europe, Asia, and North America. Pull off impossible moves and audacious combos in order to rise in rank and become number one.
Every in-game move is motion-captured from expert breakers and combined with an advanced control and animation system allowing full control of power moves, stylish freezes and flair driven combos. Players will also be able to compete in style by customizing their own b-boy or b-girl with famous brands like adidas.
Published by Evolved Games and developed by FreeStyleGames in collaboration with legend Crazy Legs, B-Boy is the first truly competitive breakdancing game, featuring over 800 motion-captured moves. The game includes Crazy Legs and the Rock Steady Crew and features 22 authentic venues including Red Bull: King of the Ring, Freestyle Sessions, UK B-Boy Championships and IBE.

EA has announced the final two cover athletes for NCAA Football 09, scheduled to hit stores across North America on July 15 from EA Sports. Former Cal wide receiver, DeSean Jackson, will be the cover athlete on PlayStation 2 while former West Virginia Mountaineer Owen Schmitt can be found on the cover of the PlayStation Portable version of the game.
In three seasons at Cal, Jackson ranks third all time in receiving yards (2,423) and third in receiving touchdowns (22). He was rated as the #1 receiver in the nation by The Sporting News and Rivals.com going into his junior campaign. Jackson was a first team All-Pac-10 selection and led the nation in average punt return yards (18.2) in his sophomore season. In the recently held NFL Draft, Jackson was selected in the second round (49th overall pick) by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Schmitt, a tough-minded fullback, finished his West Virginia Mountaineer career as one of the greatest players in school lore. In his career, Schmitt earned 21 career starts and carried the ball for 1,003 yards, a 6.3-yard average, during his Mountaineer career.
NCAA Football 09 on PlayStation 2 will feature authentic collegiate animations, an all-new Mascot Challenge and bring to life the atmosphere, pageantry and tradition of college football. The PlayStation Portable version will include arcade-influenced gameplay that throws you into the action faster than ever and brings out the fun and excitement of Big Play Saturdays. Both the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable versions of NCAA Football 09 will feature EA Sports Family Play, a fun and accessible game mode that has simplified game controls, playcalling system and playbooks.
Former Arkansas All-American Darren McFadden is the cover athlete for NCAA Football 09 on the Xbox 360 while Matt Ryan from Boston College is featured on the PlayStation 3 pack front. Also, Sparty the Spartan from Michigan State University will grace the cover on the Nintendo Wii. For each of the platforms, NCAA Football 09 brings to life the fun and excitement of gameday Saturdays and captures the true emotion of the college football experience.

As of last Thursday, North America has Echochrome care of the PlayStation Store, but not the complete package found on the UMD version. The PSP version in Japan/Asia is a retail package with three modes: solo, pair and others. The mode where you tag shadowy echoes and journey back to the starting point is solo. Solo is the only mode available in the downloadable PSP version.
Pair has players guide four moving figures. Two are black and two are white. The goal is to get the same colored figures to tag each other to turn gray. Then you need to get the two gray figures to touch each other to clear the level.
Others is similar to solo, except you have other mannequins moving around. If you happen to bump into one of the others you’re whisked back to the last echo you touched.
While the North American PSP version is two modes less, this shouldn’t be a deal breaker. Echochrome only costs $9.99 for the PSP or PS3, the cheapest price in any region to date for both consoles. Sony Computer Entertainment Japan sold Echochrome on the PSP for 3,980 yen ($38). The slim, $9.99 downloadable PSP edition has enough content to satiate most gamers craving perspective bending puzzles. However, it is interesting that Sony Computer Entertainment America chose to release Echcohrome without the other modes. They gave North America a huge price break on Patapon, but stopped short with Echochrome. Are they planning on selling an Echochrome: Paired Shadows expansion pack in the future?
The other awkward change is the voice actress. Sony Computer Entertainment America chose to replace the English voice actress with another English voice actress. However, these voice clips may have come from the European version since the ominous voice sounds like a British accent.

During his keynote speech at Sony PlayStation Day London '08, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe head David Reeves announced that the PS3 had officially overtaken the Xbox 360 in European sales.
I am delighted to be able announce today that we have sold more PlayStation 3s throughout Europe than Xbox 360 - even though they launched sixteen months before PS3.
More than 5 million PS3 systems have been sold across Europe, with PS2 and PSP numbers equally as impressive at 48 million and 12 million respectively.
These numbers are a testament to the strength of the PlayStation brand throughout our region, the ever-increasing number of titles being launched, the rich content on offer and its appeal to different demographics and cultures.
Different demographics and cultures that will likely viciously savage each other in the comments section following this news.

Aww Europe, did you really think Sony would leave you out of the Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PlayStation 3 bundle loop? Of course not! Come June 12th, European gamers will be able to get their hands on their own MGS4 bundle, complete with PlayStation 3, SixAxis controller, and of course, a copy of the game. Not the most exciting bundle really, but hey, it's a bundle allright. The pack will be priced at 439.99 Euros, perfect for any fan of the series who managed to hold out on picking up the console until now.

It looks like SCEE is getting into the video making business. The company announced today that they will begin touring Europe in search of the best in international music. The best groups will show up on episodes of Movement, on the Playstation Network, hosted by Spencer and Martin who will be driving around the continent in a VW Camper.
Movement (PSN)
Seeking out the greatest unsigned bands from across Europe, Movement is an exclusive PSN music experience which will open your ears, your PS3 and PSP to the best in international music. From French electronica to London grindie via melody driven rock from Germany, you’ll hear it all courtesy of hosts Spencer and Martin who are tracking down the sweetest sounds across the continent in their VW Camper. With exclusive downloads on PSN and performances at PlayStation Day, movement will culminate with one band being selected by Spencer and Martin to have a professional promo video made. Look out for the entire madcap adventure on PSN soon.
This is an interesting concept. I wonder if PSN is going to start producing other original video content.

Siren Blood Curse is coming to the Playstation Network in twelve "TV-style, suspense-packed" downloadable episodes this summer, SCEE announced today.
The next-gen horror-survival title is set in the Japanese village of Hanuda, where a TV crew from America arrive to research the legend of the ‘Vanished Village’ where human sacrifice is said to have taken place thirty years ago. Players discover the horrific curse that haunts Hanuda and battle to save the village’s survivors from the living dead – a spine-tingling struggle that involves using the unique Sight-Jack system to view events from the angle of your undead pursuers. In a gaming first, Siren Blood Curse will be released episodically, keeping gamers on the edge of their seats until the next download arrives in PSN.

PlayStation owners around the world were treated to a Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 update in firmware 2.20, which enabled the special features of BD-Live titles on the PlayStation 3, but outside of the U.S. that really didn't mean much...until now. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment have found a way to make you buy Men in Black again as they announce the Will Smith / Tommy Lee Jones sci-fi classic (is it too early?) as the first BD-Live release for the international market.
"SPHE is delighted to bring BD-Live to International markets for the first time," stated Matt Brown, EVP, International, SPHE, "This follows a successful launch in the US in March and is just the start of the exciting possibilities that will soon be available on high definition Blu-ray Disc."
Interactive features include a BD-Live multiplayer interactive trivia game and exclusive downloadable theatrical previews. Finally, interactive trivia on Blu-ray. Hopefully they'll be kicking things up a notch with future interactive releases. Men in Black the You Might As Well Buy It Again On Blu-ray version will be out June 17th.

Details are very sketchy, but SCEE and Nissan just announced the GT Racing Academy, which will give gamers a chance to show if they can drive in real life like they do in Gran Turismo. Every step of the academy will be filmed and later made available on the Playstation Network.
It sounds like it's connected to a contest that will give two luck people a four-month, real-life racing tutorial and then have them participate in the Dubai 24-hour race in January.
The vids will hit starting the PSN on May 23rd.

Resistance 2 will feature eight-player co-op which will have its own story, characters and rewards, Ted Price, president of Insomniac Games, told the folks at today's UK Sony Gamers Day.
Multiplayer will support up to 60 players and include Chimera, again, it will also be structured in a way to bring back a sense of intimacy. There will be squads within these mammoth fights, making the game feel more personal and filled with skirmishes instead of giant, faceless wars. The game will use some sort of system to make sure you always respawn near the same group of players, so you can really start to gun for them.
R2, which is six months from hitting shelves, will also include persistent levels which you earn by getting points for things like helping out your team.

Killzone 2 will be hitting the Playstation 3 in February, David Reeves told journalists gathered in London for Sonys Gamers Day there today.
Not a whole lot of other information about the release, but several sites report that the game will be playable to the press both today and next week during the U.S. Gamers Day.
The news came following an announcement that LittleBigPlanet has been pushed back from a September launch date to October. SCEE also sales of the Playstation Portable, Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 in Europe and apologized for the delay of Home.

Panasonic's SC-BT100 Blu-ray home-theater in a box made a sly appearance back at CES, but today we got up all in its face. The Blu-ray soul is basically Panny's BD-30 player (with the added mojo of the BD-50's Chroma processor). Rear speakers are wireless and produce virtual 7.1 sound, though you can add on two more for true 7.1. Supposedly the subwoofer is magically designed to reduce hissing with quiet rumblings—we certainly didn't notice any in the demo, but we heard smooth, cheesy jazz and the 18-wheeler/F-18 scene from Justin Long's fake Die Hard movie, so it was hard to gauge its effectiveness on the front. The sound certainly wasn't bad though—it'll go for $999 in late spring.

Today in NYC, Panasonic showed off its DMP-BD50, the company's first BD-Live Blu-ray 2.0 player—and the second in the market besides the PlayStation 3—setting the price at $700. It's an improvement over the DMP-BD30, which will stay on the market as a $500 step-down. In addition to BD-Live (and the requisite Ethernet port), it will decode all new DTS and Dolby Digital codecs internally, as well as bitstream them to a compatible receiver, if that's your preference. The player, initially announced at CES, will ship in "late spring," presumably the next 4-6 weeks, and will not need a firmware upgrade to be 2.0 compatible—a requirement of the $400 Sony BDP-S350 player due out around the same time.

Take-Two has sued the Chicago Transit Authority for violating its free speech and contractual rights after the authority pulled ads for Grand Theft Auto IV on the transit system without explanation. Reuters reports that Take-Two accuses the CTA of violating the contract for the $300,000 ad campaign that involved running GTA IV ads around the transit system for six weeks between April and June.
The suit seeks an order for the CTA to run the ads, as well as at least $300,000 in damages. Reuters states the GTA IV posters were removed following a FOX news report on the ads. Now, we're not lawyers (although we do have one writing for us), so we can't say if the CTA violated a basic contract, but Chicago residents should let us know if they see the ads back up and snap a photo.

Well, that didn't work. Tearing out the May, June, July, August and September pages from our official 2008 Sackboy Calendar has utterly failed to bring us any closer to LittleBigPlanet's newly announced "October" release date. Speaking at Sony's PlayStation Day 2008 event in London, Sony bigwig Kaz Hirai confirmed that the burlap-bouncing, community-powered platformer would be gracing PlayStation 3 systems in that month when people dress up as pirates and vampires. Provided it doesn't slip again, LittleBigPlanet is going to make for quite the treat.

Chart-Track has released finalised UK sales data for Grand Theft Auto IV's launch date and first full week, showing sales of 926,000 units for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions combined.
Day one sales were 631,000 units. The first week sales were spread across five days. According to Chart-Track, GTA IV software revenue is bigger than the entire software market revenue of any week so far this year after the first week of 2008.
Chart-Track also reported that the first week of GTA IV software units has already surpassed all but the top three All Formats titles of 2007 - FIFA 08, Brain Training and Call of Duty 4.
514,000 copies were sold for Microsoft's Xbox 360 and 413,000 copies were sold for Sony's PlayStation 3 - a split of 55 per cent to 45 per cent.
Chart-Track is reporting that GTA IV's launch had almost the same effect on console hardware sales for both systems - with PS3 hardware sales up 127 per cent from the previous week and Xbox 360 hardware sales up 125 per cent.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which launched on 29 October 2004, sold 501,000 copies on its first day and 677,000 units during its first week - which consisted only of two days. At the time it was released, the PS2 had an installed base of approximately 6.6 million.
San Andreas still holds the day one and week one record for the individual format, but GTA IV is the new record holder for all formats.

Sony has unveiled a fancy EyeToy game for children that comes with its very own sword peripheral.
Dubbed EyeToy: Heroes, it will see you attempting to save the world by saving a cheerleader. Or more accurately, it will allow youngsters to muck about with a sword peripheral.
Sony Europe boss David Reeves did the unveiling at the just-this-minute-finished Sony PlayStation Day conference.
He also lifted the lid on a game called EyeToy: Pom Pom Party, which he said was obviously "for those girls with a passion for pom pom shaking".
Pop over to our full transcription of the Sony PlayStation Day keynote to find out more.

Sony's PlayStation Day has been and gone. Here's everything that went down in London town.
Sony Japan's main man Kaz Hirai was backed-up by Euro boss David Reeves as they both revealed the year ahead for PS3 and PSP.
Here's the live text from the show. Screens later tonight:
- The show has started and Kaz Hirai has taken stage. Things have improved massively since launch, he tells the audience.
- Buzz, Motorstorm 2 and Killzone 2 lead this year's first-party titles, says Kaz. Supported by MGS4 and others from third parties.
- Kaze talks about the 'ten year cycle', says the potential of the PS3's power is massive.
- Appologises for Home delay. "I will not open up Home until im completley satisfied".
- 8 Million registered on PlayStation Network. "Huge opertunity for PS, one that requires a different way of thinking". Singstar Online is key to this, and Buzz Online will follow.
- About to pass back to SCEE boss David Reeves. "Moving forward the future of PlayStation firmly sits in Interactive Entertainment".
- "Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to meeting you later." Reeves back on stage. Says we'll get to play Home later. Yeah!
- Talking lots of PR magic. Says today won't be a traditional event, will be focusing on games rather than platforms.
- As of today we have sold more than 48 million PSPs. Announces 5m PS3s sold in Europe. "We have sold more PlayStation 3s in Europe than Xbox 360s, even though they launch 14 months before us."
- Moving on to look at PlayStation's user-generated content. Says you can customise your XMB and themes, which is well wicked.
- 220,000 copies of Singstar PS3 sold, and over a million songs downloaded. Girls.
- Now they're playing a video of a Wookie dancing to Singstar. We know it prints money, can we see Killzone now please?
- Now he's going on about Buzz. Export quizzes and stuff from your PC, play them on PS3. Just like pen and paper. LittleBig Planet looks much better, Reeves still reading from a press release. We can play it this afternoon. Yeah!
- LBP creation video rolls. It's Killzone... in LBP! Lots of crazy car courses, platforming carnage, rolly balls... just bliss.
- "PS3 is first and formost a state of the art games machine", says Killzone 2 and Resistance 2 demonstrates how to get the best from the PS3. "But as we know from the PS2, it's still early days yet."
- Killzone 2 out February next year. Trailer rolls. "Our War. Their Planet". Gameplay footage mixed with a logo getting the crap shot out of it. Looks terrific still. Playable today.
- Insomniac Games pres on stage to talk about Resistance 2. Says they focused on the four C's: Co-op, Community, Competitive and Campaign.
- "Every game released these days has to have a strong community." Says Insomniac's revamping the online Resistance site with online features.
- 8-player online co-op with its own campaign, own story. There are character classes as well, which sounds awesome. Footage rolls, "this is sixth months away from being on shelves."
- Online mutliplayer footage rolls, looks much better than the first game. Lots of grass. Pretty, pretty grass. "60-players in our battles".
- "More battles, more intimacy". Seperate squads with own objectives. "We don't have sixty players fighting in one small area." Every squad gets own rival squad. Reward system that rewards teamwork, i.e. leveling up. He's off stage, Dave back.
- "Another game coming out soon is Metal Gear Solid 4." Confirms exclusive MGS4 PS3 bundle, out for June launch.
- Motorstorm sold 3m worldwide. Introduces the sequel, which apparently has "incredible graphics". Creative Director Paul Hollywood on stage.
- "We havent just upgraded the graphics and put a 2 on the end". Says it's added ultra-aggressive AI and "even more brutal racing." New island setting is influenced by Hawaii. No hoola, no Elvis... apparently.
- 16 tracks in the new game, boots up one of them. "Pre-alpha, 40% complete". Look wicked, demonstrates the fancy plant tech by driving a buggy through the jungle. Boasts about water tech, which in reality looks a bit rubbish. Racing footage rolls, need more Pendulum.
- Talk about vehicles. Nothing new here. 4-player split-screen. If he says "brutal off-road racing" one more time, we're going to mental. He said it again. We HATE YOU.
- Mr. Cheese is gone. Dave's back and he's talking about something WICKED; EA DICE's Mirror's Egde.
- EA Man Sean is on stage. Yo Sean! Talking a bit about the story, but we just want to see the game in action.
- Says DICE is going to put you in an action game, instead of watching an action game. That means you'll be able to see her legs. Trailer rolls, it'll be on PSN later this week.
- In-game footage of Faith running across a rooftop, looks incredible. We ARE buying this game.
- Dave's back. No, don't go Sean! He's talking about sports games now. Urgh. Talks about sports games, mainly motorsport and footy.
- Says Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is the nuts. Already sold 1.5 million in Europe. We're waiting for him to say "brutal off-road racing".
- Sony has teamed up with Nissan to make the GT Academy, which is a European competition that mixes PS3 racing with proper real-life motors. Mike should put his name down for that, he once got to our house from Kent in 15 minutes, the nutter.
- Now a Nissan blokes turned up to talk PR. He's got a posh voice. "I often wondered if I could make the grade behind the wheel in a real race." Says thank to the GT Academy, gamers can now find out the answer to that question.
- Every round of the GT Acadmey will be filmed and made available on PSN, says Dave.
- Now talking about footy. Says Sony and SCEE sponsors FIFA, UEFA, so they're well into it, like. Rambles on about PS3 footy tournament. We don't care, show us games.
- Talking about Blu-ray, says its doing well in Europe. BDLive lets users interact with filsm on PS3, he says. To "show the potential of BDLive," here's some Aussie bloke from Sony Pictures.
- Lots of numbers. More than 1 out of 3 Blu-Rays sold is from Sony Pictures. Introducing "exciting interactive features", Walk Hard and The 6th Day were the first to have these. From June 16th the first BDLIVE disc will come to Europe; Men in Black. That was wicked, 10 years ago (cynical hat off now), promise. Blu-ray advert plays on the big screen.
- "Exciting" BD LIVE lets you connect to the internet and play online trivia games in Men in Black. We lied about the cynical hat; this sounds rubbish.
- "Time for Blu-ray to give something back," by making the PS3 the "only console" that plays the hi-def format. No 360 add-on, then?
- Trailer rolls for GO!LIVE movie service on PSP. Looks interesting. The service will launch next month. "It's no secret that we want to launch a similar service on PS3... so watch this space".
- Talking about Singstar, EyeToy and Buzz again, which have sold over 20 million combined. This bit really isn't for us.
- EyeToy Hero coming, comes with a toy sword that interacts with the camera. Have that, Wii.
- Echochrome video. Very 'lifestyle'. There's a bloke playing on the PS3, with his missus relegated to the PSP. We do that at home. We don't know what's going on in this video, there are men in white balaclavas pushing fruit...
- Wierd music stuff over, Dave's talking about Play TV. It's going to be on the show floor tonight, and will be out in September for 99 Euros (£78).
- Coming up to the end now. "Cast you mind to Games Convention in Leipzig last year", says Dave. Says Sony has lived up to all of its promises, sold over five million PS3s.
- "This is just the tip of the ice berg," says the future of PlayStation is looking very bright. We're off to play games and bop to Oakenfold...

Sony has revealed that its PSP video on demand service Go!View will be in the UK on 30th June. It will be out for selected countries in mainland Europe next month.
This is the first "official" PSP service of its type in Europe, according to SCEE boss David Reeves, and is a joint venture with broadcaster Sky.
It will be available on a pay-per-view or subscription basis, and lets you download films or telly shows such as drama or sport in five easy steps: log on, choose what you want, use your PC to download it, transfer it to PSP, and then, er, something; presumably watch it.
Sony is also keen to expand this model to the PS3:
"It's also no secret that we'd like to launch a similar service on PS3... So watch this space," added Reeves during his Sony PlayStation Day keynote speech.
Meanwhile, those keen to get telly on their PS3 can always buy the PlayTV box that lets you record your favourite shows to your hard drive while you mow the lawn or watch another show at the same time.
It will cost EUR 99 (around GBP 80) and is out in September. Find out more over at GoPSPgo.co.uk.

ragnarok2040 has posted a new version of the Nes Emulator for the PS2:
I've modified the browser and menus to all use a single input function that returns a newly pressed button state for parsing. This way I don't have 3 or 4 or 6 input functions all doing pretty much the same thing. I've also changed the directory list to use a linked list, to simplify things, which shouldn't cause any problems. I've also separated the browser history from the savepath browsing and elfpath browsing, this way it won't affect the first instance of the browser for selecting a rom. I think I broke booting to an elf in the previous betas, and I've fixed it back so it boots off memory card or the usb drive right now. I've gotta test the partition code after browsing for an elf/savepath on hdd0: to see if the fix I added worked. I think I fixed the sram crash, but I'm not sure, since I need to test it on my ps2 as well. I'm going to separate the code for partitioning and path parsing into a separate file from the browser, since it's starting to get cluttered, heh. I should have another release tonight or tomorrow.
Update2:
Wow, seems pretty much dead on these forums the last week. Well, anyway, I think I fixed the sram problem, and I've added the function for configuring input. You'll need to configure both controllers using the 1st player's. I also fixed a bug for CNF saving/loading where if a device was found but no CNF was found, it defaulted to mc0:/FCEUMM/, now it will only do that as a last resort if no device or +FCEUMM partition is found.

Back in January, the figures stood at 2.9 million registered users and 52 million pieces of content.
During Sony's PlayStation Day in London yesterday, the company also revealed that on average players of SingStar on PS3 are buying 6.3 songs via the PlayStation Store.
Resistance: Fall of Man has over 1.4 million users playing online, with the sequel looking to capitalise on online play as developer Insomniac overhauls MyResistance.net and adds social networking features to the site.

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has deemed that a misleading PC World television advert for PlayStation 3 should not appear again in its current form.
The ASA deemed the ad in question to be "misleading" because it implied that 60GB PS3s were backwards compatible with all PS2 games.
The phrase "and it plays your PS2 games as well" was highlighted by the ASA, which said that the ad breached CAP TV Advertising Standards Code rule 5.1 (misleading advertising) and should not appear again in its current form.
According to both PC World parent DSG Retail and the ASA, around 80 percent of PS2 software is compatible with 60GB PlayStation 3s.

SCEE boss David Reeves has admitted he is unsure if Sony will stick to offering only the 40GB PS3 unit.
Speaking to Eurogamer, he hinted towards the possibility of introducing official external hard drives as he delivered his vision of consumer storage choice.
"We launched with 60GB and to reduce the price we went to 40GB. We're not sure we want to stay with that configuration of hard drive, and I think what you're going to see in the future is maybe consumers can choose," Reeves told Eurogamer.
"The PlayStation will stay the same, but consumers can choose whichever size of hard drive they want. They can now, or course, because it's not a proprietary hard drive."
"It might be that we will offer the possibility for people to have a bigger hard drive, but they have that option now. But it does not mean that we have anything in the works to introduce a different model or bigger hard drive built in," added Reeves.
You can plug external hard drives into the PS3 using a USB cable attachment, as Reeves pointed out, as well as buy 2.5 inch SATA (laptop) hard drives and swap them with the one inside your console.
The key in all of this for Sony is simplicity, because it knows that works. It also has a very low system failure rate and is in no rush to upset it.
"We've played the games with the hardware, with different hard drives and things like that, and we want to keep it very, very simple. We know that works," said Reeves.
"We've got a very, very low return rate on the machines that are out; we've got a great supplier, so we'll keep that simple. We're just going to play the tunes with the games, both at retail and online."

We've no idea what's going on in these screenshots, but according to some blurb that's accompanied them PixelJunk Eden is a "truly innovative platform game" involving leaping and swinging between lush alien vegetation.
It "constantly evolves over time as you move through the perfectly realised undergrowth, hunting treasures and smashing enemies from his path. Destroyed enemies scatter pollen across the landscape, which the player must collect and use to pollinate seed pods before using the new growth to progress further."

Rockstar and Sony plans to patch the PS3 version of Grand Theft Auto IV today to improve the multiplayer experience.
Speaking to Eurogamer, a Sony source explained that the patch would help by "reducing the loads on the servers at GameSpy and hopefully the completely random hangs that some users have seen".
PS3 owners who bought GTA IV last week have had to endure problems connecting to the multiplayer service almost from day one.
What's more, some reported random crashes, for which Rockstar suggested that erasing game data and reinstalling as a possible solution.
This week, UK chart monitor Chart-Track reported that 926,000 copies of GTA IV were sold during its first week on sale here - with 413,000 of going to PS3 owners.

Speaking at the PlayStation Day yesterday, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Kaz Hirai apologised for teething problems during the first year of the PlayStation 3 and the disappointment of delaying social networking application Home.
He acknowledged that the the software line-up was underwhelming for some consumers, and that competitors enjoyed a more successful year during the first 12 months of release for the company's luxury console.
"It's fair to say that the first year of PlayStation 3 was somewhat a difficult one," offered Hirai. "There were some teething problems, success from our competitors, and our customers were a little underwhelmed by the range of titles that were available."
"This was something that we were very much aware of, and something that we were confident we could over come," he said.
Last month Sony made the decision to delay Home, the PS3 social networking and online gaming space, but Hirai reiterated that it would not be released until he was personally happy with it.
"I realise this announcement was disappointing to many people, from TGS where we were aiming for a spring launch, so please accept my apologies for this delay.
"But as I said at Tokyo Game Show, I would not open up Home until I was completely happy with it, and I still stand by that statement.
"We've been testing Home for some time and I simply feel that as great as Home currently is, it needs a little bit more time before it's ready for the wider public - something we firmly believe we can provide in the autumn," he added.
Earlier at the PlayStation event, David Reeves, president of SCEE revealed the PlayStation 3 has now sold more units in Europe than the Xbox 360, and Hirai noted that 2008 has been a good year for the company so far, even with only two key titles – GT5 Prologue and Grand Theft Auto IV – on release.
"Things have improved since the Christmas season and 2008 has gotten off to a fantastic start. What fills me with even greater pleasure is that our year so far has only seen the launch of two of our key titles," he commented.
Some of the titles on display during the London event included Home, Little Big Planet and Motorstorm Pacific Rift.

It's been a long time coming, but Ubisoft's Free Radical-developed shooter, Haze, has finally been given the demo treatment, with the publisher sending word that a single and multiplayer-flavored demo is now available over PSN in Europe and that the same hors d'oeuvre will make the rounds in the U.S. starting May 8.
As if offering apology for Haze's numerous delays, the demo will include both a sampling of the game's single player campaign called "Salva Region," as well as "drop-in drop-out" co-op multiplayer for up to four players online or over a LAN, or with two players via split-screen. We're sure that there is some "coming out of the haze" joke to be made here, but honestly, after months of waiting we're simply all joked out.

News/release From ChrisP6825
Reverb 1.2
by Chrisp6825
-----------------
To install :
Extract the Reverb folder to the GAME folder of you PSP.
-----------------
About :
This game is about trying to get the white ball into the big purple one while fighting gravity and friction with anti-gravity blocks.
You also want to get to the finish point with the shortest run, least amount of anti-gravity blocks, and fastest build time.
You have to avoid obstacles like bombs, walls, and traps, while jumping through portals and grabing keys.
This game is based on a game at addicting games I saw called "Compulse". My friend showed it to me and it seemed like a good chalenge to beat. After I beat it, I wanted to play it more. So I decided to put it on my psp and take it where ever I went, but the game was in flash and I hate the psp's lash player. So I thought it'd be fun to remake it and then play it on my psp.
This is a Lua game. I've tested it in Luaplayer HM 5.0 and 6.6. It did work on Luaplayer .20 but I added Mp3's to the game.
-----------------
Controls :
Move the "mouse" around with arrow keys or analog. If you hold L and move the analog it moves slower.
Press and hold X on the boxes to make new ones and place around on the course.
Circle resets the level, and Square deletes the top block under the mouse.
Start releases the ball, and Select pauses the game.
While in the menu, Select will also resume the game.
Up and down changes the selections in the menu's.
Change log :
-----------------
05-06-2008 - Reverb 1.2
Added main menu and in game pause-menu
Added background music
Added somewhat of a H.U.D.
"One-way" walls and floors
Option to turn music on or off
Fixed exit function (used to exit to Lowser if it was running, else it crashed)
Some graphic updates
Timer now counts on how long it takes to finish the level (used to count how long it took ball to get to finish)
Shows number of used blocks
Shows the expected number of blocks to use to finish the level, plus a challenge number also
Small improvements in physics and gravity
Greyed out menu items show what is expected in next release
Some bug fixes
*Known Bugs*
Death animation (stars) slowed down a bit. This is to keep the game from slowing down until I find a way around it.
Usual collision limitations
timer will sometimes jump up an extra 7000 seconds, for some unknown reason.
If more than one green/ yellow block is placed, it increases the strength of a single one. Still counts the new block.
Game slows down a small bit if block count is around 15 or 16.

News/release From Angelo
Hello guys.
After a bit of tinkering around with my flash0, piKey and IRDA stuff, I managed to fix a bug many of you have found anoying.
Some of may have noticed that IRDA (Infared) has been acting strange in firmwares 3.80+.
It fails to work when in "Game3.XX" mode. This ins't the case in just piKey, but also in ZX-81's PSPWrite, AFKIM and various other IRDA applications.
The patcher can be downloaded here
Instructions:
Remember, this is for PSP fats only!
Very simple... just copy the contents from the "ms0" folder to your PSP and run.
(I have made the patcher multi kernel so you don't require the 1.50 addon pack.)
Then just enable the plugin in the recovery menu!
How it works: (My favourite question)
It just simply adds "Flash0:\KD\IRDA.PRX" to "ms0:\SEPlugins\Game.txt". This loads the IRDA.PRX driver in "Game3.XX" mode and enables your IR keyboard to work again.
NOTE:
This patcher enables your PSP to access the flash0, however their is no risk of bricking. The patcher does not access the flash0 at all!
Have fun guys!

Sony has told GamesIndustry.biz that it expects forthcoming title LittleBigPlanet to achieve higher sales figures than Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Edition.
GT 5 Prologue was released last March at retail and online and became the fastest-selling PlayStation 3 game, while also boosting sales of PS3 hardware by 14 per cent.
"We're hoping sales will be higher than GT5 Prologue," revealed David Reeves, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.
Analysts are backing the game as a system seller, suggesting it will manage to appeal to a family audience not currently catered for by either Nintendo or Microsoft.
The game, developed by Media Molecule, is due for release this October. The platformer will allow users to create their own levels and share them online with other PS3 users.
LittleBigPlanet was first announced at GDC 2007 and remains one of Sony's key titles. It has taken centre stage at multiple press events, and is being used to push Sony's PS3 online message along with social community Home and party favourite SingStar.
"These are genre-defining titles, something we're very proud of, and just one facet of the rapidly growing world of PlayStation," said Kaz Hirai, president of SCEA, during Sony's PlayStation Day in London yesterday.
"[LittleBigPlanet] will completely revolutionise the way gamers interact with their games, especially through the community functions and the ability to interact with LittleBigPlanet lovers around the globe," he added.

Here I'm back with my protect-me app, changelogs since v0.9f:
Quoted form the readme
-Added a credit screen
-Now, if someone takes your PSP "illegaly", inputs a wrong password, even if he hard reboots the PSP, a message will be written saying "this psp received a bad password input on XXX" and the date, so you have to put the good password to disable this password, otherwise, it will appear at each boot, making it impossible to boot on the XMB!

Rockstar has released a patch that plugs the crash-causing holes in the PS3 version of GTA IV, and has issued a statement to "apologise for the inconvenience".
The patch, now available to download directly from the internet (your PS3 will need to be connected, obviously) fixes issues related to Gamespy's servers.
According to Rockstar, it "prevents Gamespy's servers from being overloaded and therefore reduces the impact on those servers that were causing the game to stutter and lock up."
So, as well as stopping the freezing, you should also actually be able to get a game online.
Rockstar says it'll be keeping a close eye on things from here. "We continue to monitor the performance of the game both on and offline and will provide further updates as necessary," it told CVG.
"We want to assure everyone that, together with our hardware partners, we continue to strive to give our fans the best possible interactive entertainment experiences possible. This update will ensure that everyone will experience Grand Theft Auto IV the way it was intended.
"We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused."
We forgive you.

SCEE boss David Reeves has said there is not enough incentive for developers to work on multiple language translations during development - explaining that's why us Europeans get games after the US.
Reeves told Eurogamer he would "love to go day and date with some titles" in the two continents, but said that was only really feasible in the UK. And he thinks you might call him bias if he did that.
"Well some developers would say they can do [translations during initial development]. Talk to Ted Price at Insomniac and he builds it in at the beginning. We're trying to educate all our developers to do that but it's something that's going to take a while," Reeves told Eurogamer.
"But even if you talk to Guerrilla, Namco, Square Enix, they all do it in English to begin with and then think about localisation later. You're absolutely right, we should do it at the beginning. But they look at it like, 'How much can I get for a Dutch version of the game?'
"With PlayStation Store we could probably go in the UK almost day and date. But then what are the Germans and the French going to say to me? That I'm Anglo-centric," added Reeves.
Yes and they may use other words, too.

Former Xbox boss and current EA Sports president Peter Moore took a swipe at an old sparring partner this week, expressing dismay at the ongoing delay of Sony's Home service for the PlayStation 3.
The EA Sports president's comments came less than 24 hours after Sony Computer Entertainment boss Kaz Hirai apologised for the latest delay to Sony's ambitious online social networking project.
Our sister site Eurogamer.net asked Moore whether he was interested in working with Home now that he was no longer a direct rival.
"Yeah; I just wish it would ship," he answered.
"I [previously] questioned it a little bit, whether I'd want to wander around there. Phil Harrison showed me a demo – it's very cool, but let's go already. And so I'm disappointed that it's been pushed back a little bit again.
"But I really hope it gets going and becomes that portal to the PlayStation Network and we can utilise it. But boy, I just wish we'd get going."
Home will allow PS3 users to create their own virtual avatar and living space, encouraging interaction with Sony's online community. It is now scheduled for an autumn release.
"We've been testing Home for some time and I simply feel that as great as Home currently is, it needs a little bit more time before it's ready for the wider public - something we firmly believe we can provide in the autumn," Hirai said as he explained the delay at an event in London earlier this week.

A demo of much-delayed shooter Haze has now been added to the PlayStation Store.
It was added on Tuesday, actually, but we forgot to tell you. We're wearing one of those spiky punishment belts to make up for it.
The Haze demo lets you romp around that sun-drenched Salva region, described as "the only place on earth where you can blow a stranger's head off with a jolly smile".
Those smiles can be shared with up to three friends in online co-op, or offline with just one friend in ye olde splitte-screene.
Haze will be released exclusively for PS3 on 23rd May.

On May 16 - that's next Friday - you'll be able to pick up PS2 and Xbox 360 versions of PES 2008 on the cheap(ish).
Both iterations are going budget, you see, the Xbox 360 version to retail at £24.99 and the PS2 version at £19.99. Konami calls the trip to the bargain bin for the duo "the essential summer signing".
PES 2008 was received reasonably well by critics - well, apart from the PS3 version, which Pro Evo creator Sebass himself has admitted was "far from what we wanted".

2K Sports, the sports publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), and Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today announced the next iteration of the wildly popular baseball franchise, MLB Power Pros 2008, scheduled to be available for Wii home video game system from Nintendo and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system this July, as well as Nintendo DS later this fall. As the highest-rated and top-selling baseball title in Japan, MLB Power Pros was available in North America for the first time last year. Its comedic visual appeal of miniature Major League Baseball player models has attracted a dedicated following through its easy-to-use controls and addictively fun gameplay experience.
"We're thrilled to partner with Konami again, and with the Baseball season now in full swing, we're proud to offer our fans a refreshingly smart and exciting baseball game that is easily accessible for all ages," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "Baseball enthusiasts will appreciate the variety of newly added features, intuitive game modes and improved overall feel, and we look forward to hitting one out of the park this season with MLB Power Pros 2008."
With over ten different exciting game modes including the traditional Practice, Exhibition, League and Home Run Challenge modes, MLB Power Pros 2008 will bring fans closer to the action than ever before. Gamers also get the opportunity to act as general manager and control the destiny of their own franchise in Season mode, or engage in entertaining role-playing story modes such as Success and MLB Life modes. As general manager, gamers can trade, sign free agents, coordinate practice schedules, purchase new equipment, call up and send down players from the Minor Leagues, along with other management options to bring in fans, win playoff games and eventually, earn the title of World Series champion.
In Success mode, fans can participate in a story-based career of rising players in the Double-A Minor League system trying to improve their baseball skills and make an impression on baseball scouts while also having to balance various situations in their personal lives. Through a variety of amusing training and game challenges, players who complete Success mode will also be able to take their created player files into MLB Life as well, or also play as either an existing Major League Baseball player in Dream Mode, or start as a rookie in Major League Career mode. As a new feature in MLB Power Pros 2008, MLB Life is another story-based mode that will allow fans the possibility to simulate the exciting life and experience of being a Major League Baseball player over the course of a 20-year career. While continuing to play in games through the regular baseball season, players will also participate in a number of realistic situations such as signing contracts, purchasing houses and cars, making charitable donations, building up relationships with friends and teammates, picking up hobbies and much more.
With easy, pick-up-and-play hitting and pitching controls, along with intuitive Wii functionality, other new features in MLB Power Pros 2008 include support of 40-man rosters, change of ball speed, adjustment of defensive shifts, along with a real-time bullpen check functionality for substituting pitchers. MLB Power Pros 2008 will also support the option for players to import their Wii-based characters, Miis, from their Wii or Wii Remote to become part of the exciting action!
MLB Power Pros 2008, developed by Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., is not yet rated by the ESRB, and will be available for Wii and the PlayStation 2 system this July, as well as Nintendo DS later this fall.

The game is being developed by Eurocom (Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End) for the Wii and PlayStation 2, and for the Nintendo DS by A2M (Spiderman: Friend or Foe DS). The latest Mummy film, produced by Universal Pictures, stars Brendan Fraser returning to his hero role and Jet Li as the evil Dragon Emperor.
"The Mummy is one of the most distinctive and expansive franchises in Universal's portfolio, and there is inherent gameplay in the property," said Bill Kispert, Vice President and General Manager, Interactive, Universal Pictures Digital Platforms Group. "The new film amps up the action, introduces a ruthless new villain and takes our heroes to incredible new locations. We are thrilled to bring all these attributes to life in this game."
Players will step into the shoes of Rick O'Connell (Fraser) and his son, Alex, as they travel to Chinese tombs and Himalayan mountain tops. Gameplay will be a mix of combat, puzzles, and hieroglyphic decryption.

If you've got a PSP-2000 and a hankering for some VoIP on the run, Sony has finally brought its Skype-friendly PSP headset to US retail. Unfortunately, it won't work with those original fatty PSPs, and at $30 you've gotta ask yourself how much you'll really be using it for -- the original price was set at $20. That said, it's undoubtedly the easiest way to get up and running with Skype and in-game voice chat on the PSP, since it used to require two separate accessories to pull it off.

New from Yan2Yan
Here is a class C + + to simplify the management of language files in C + +. It is already very comprehensive, and allows, among others, running a default language ...
Download:
languageManager - Sample
languageManager - Class C + +
The sample is sufficient to understand the functioning of this class, but I will explain a few things ...
How do we serve?
1. It includes the header (# include "languageManager.h")
2. It creates the object (languageManager Language
3. It configures the load
There are several things to load: title, which is a table that depends on the number of files languages (there will be no need to recharge), extraData which is a table in 2 dimensions which depends on the number of files and languages of imposed a number (we will not need to recharge), and text, which is a table that depends on the number imposed (on the recharge whenever you change language).
Why have thought so? extraData title and are variables that will be required all the time, but text will depend on the language chargéé (to save memory)
Code:
Langue.configure ( ". / Language /", "", 100, "def", "#");
Langue.configureDataToLoad (0, 1, NEXT, 1, NEXT, MAX);
In the first line shows the directory where the files will be stored languages, the file name to be created containing the file name default language (by default this file is called "default.lang"), maximum number of lines to load (the famous number that is imposed on text and extraData), the extension of files languages (here "def") and the character through which begin comentaires.
In the second row, said:
-- A line which must begin loading the title (0 = first line, second line 1 = ...), then the number of lines to charge for title;
-- A line which must begin loading extraData (0 = first line, second line = 1 ... NEXT = line following the end of the title), then the number of lines to charge for extraData;
-- A line which must begin loading text (0 = first line, second line = 1 ... NEXT = line following the end of extraData), then the number of lines to charge for the text (MAX = charge as much lines as possible to limit the number imposed earlier).
4. It is a research file languages and are charged with title and extraData: Langue.search ();
5. We support the language default Langue.loadDefault (), this function returns 1 if successful loading and 0 in case of non-loading (ie that the missing file is not created or that the file default language does not exist).
6. If the default load has not worked, it creates a menu choice of language then we support the language (for example: Langue.load (Langue.config-1)
7. It may also allow accents, cédilles and others (thank you dridri85 and Akabane87):
Quote:
Langue.accentueTitle ();
Langue.accentueExtraData ();
Langue.accentueText ();
8. To access the data loaded, it was as follows:
Code:
Langue.text [i]
Langue.extraData [i] [j]
Langue.title [i]
(replacing i and j by good values)
Well, I fatigue, I will stop there, to better understand, please refer to the sample.
PS: it works well

Bobthetouriste, member forums PSPGen has just delivered the first version of his first homebrew. This game, outlandish in appearance, is actually a very good puzzle that will make more crazy one. The game is coded language lua (which you can learn about devsgen.)
The goal is very simple (well, everything is on ...), you must place the numbers 1 to 100 in a grid, you can place the number 1 anywhere on the grid, the following numbers for you will need to use your neurons. The following numbers may be placed only 3 cases where a horizontal to vertical from the box on which you raised the number. The yellow boxes show where you play your shot, boxes red boxes are accessible only to the coup. This means that the next time you'll be able to go there, they will be black (End of part ...)

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe president David Reeves has admitted that the PlayStation Portable is suffering from a lack of new games titles in the region.
Although the company has its Go! Explore sat-nav application, and cross-platform functions with the PlayStation 3, at its recent PlayStation Day the only new PSP games mentioned during the hour and a half presentation were Echocrome and Buzz! Quiz Master.
"Hand on heart, would we like more PSP games? Yes, we would. We really would," said Reeves speaking exclusively to GamesIndustry.biz.
Publisher support for Sony's handheld appears to be diminishing in Europe. A recent showcase of forthcoming titles from Sierra did not reveal any new PSP titles, despite the company still developing games for the 8 year-old PlayStation 2.
And release schedules from major publishers show only a handful of big licences such as Lego Indiana Jones and WWE Smackdown! Vs RAW in 2008, with PSP exclusives all but absent.
Although support for the handheld may appear thin in the West, sales of the PSP in Japan have rocketed this year, with over 1.6 million units sold.
Sony continues to introduce different coloured models to the market with its Blume series, while titles such as Capcom's Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G are dominating the market.
"It's phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal," said Reeves of the Japanese performance.
As more Japanese developers look to follow the success of Capcom on the system, Reeves promised that locally developed titles are also likely to make it over to the West.
"We've seen in the last six months that because of the success of the PSP in Japan many Japanese developers have got some absolutely phenomenal games. They're not Monster Hunter 2G or things like that, but they are in development and we'll see them over here," he added.

Sony says that its Gran Turismo racing series has notched up 50 million sales across all PlayStation formats (except PSP though) in ten years and precisely four months.
"Initially, Gran Turismo was an 'alternative' racing game, kind of an outsider in the genre," said series creator Kazunori Yamauchi. Kaz to his mates. "And we made it thinking that it would be okay as long as it reached out to 'the select few who would agree with us.'
"So this figure, 50 million units, is simply astounding. If you go to a game store and look for a particular package, and pay for it at the cash register, though the time may be very brief, it still takes at least three minutes or so." Stay with him...
"It's simply mind boggling and hard to believe that this has been repeated 50 million times all around the world in the last ten years. I would really like to thank all the fans who have supported the Gran Turismo series over the years, for all their passion and love of the game. We'd like to continue making every effort to create cutting edge, high quality games, so that we don't disappoint anyone's expectations."

The next Call of Duty game may not delve back into familiar WWII territory after all, as Activision CEO Mike Griffith reveals that the fifth game will take the series to a "new military theatre".
Despite rumours and strong reactions that the series would be returning to the over-used WWII era, Griffith revealed: "We'll bring the intensity of the recent Call of Duty: Modern Warfare title to a new military theatre to engage our significantly larger user base which nearly doubled last year as new users came into the franchise," according to Gamespot.
Another modern setting would get our vote (we're bored of those crappy 1940s guns and sluggish propeller-powered planes).
Griffith also revealed that the next James Bond game, in development as Treyarch, will use the CoD 4 engine, which is good news. The first good 007 game since GoldenEye? Maybe, just maybe...

News/release from Snowymydog
Before introducing my new homebrew, I would like to appologise for my broken English. English is not my mother language, I hope everyone can understand what I'm going to tell you.
"Pipeline" is remake of the famous puzzle game "Pipemania(aka Pipedream"). Rules are simple: construct a path using the randomly generated pipes from starting point to ending point. Water starts to flow when timer finishes the countdown. If you let the water spill out or did not meet the minimum distance requirement, you fail.
I do all the coding and gfx. Sfx from flashkit.com & soundsnap.com. This homebrew is entering the PSP-Hacks homebrew competition.
Save/Load and Highscore is not coded. In this release, I have included 20 levels. My target is total 50 levels in the final release. GFX and SFX will continue to enhance. The game play itself have nothing more I can do. All I wanted is bug report and comments. Good or bad, love or hate, just tell me.
This game should work on Slim PSP, since I do not own one, please let me know it works.
I need reports about the difficulties of the game. Your opinions are very important. I'll make adjustment on next release. Thanks.
Controls:
D-pad: moves the cursor
X or O: put down a pipe
Triangle: Speed up the timer and water flow
Start: pause/resume game

TriPingColors goes more to flourish. After the emergence of complex forms, M-Cid introduces the 3rd dimension in his game, which changed its path concept. Click away if your eyes are always radar colors.
Presentation:
As you may know, a color (on a screen like the PSP) is composed of red, green and blue. M-Cid (My Custom IDentity) shared with us TriPingColors Freedom (v3.1), whose goal of the game is simple: you will need to know these three colors proportional to find, as soon as possible and in a certain period of time, good color (one on the platform below) and score a maximum points.
Concept (by the author):
In this version the aim is to keep a level above zero, the more time passes over the gauge empties, it will perform in terms of points scored. Plus the player gets closer colors generated more it will mark points. The rating is based on a calculation of proximity, as a percentage. Each note will be added to your score. When the gauge empties, your points will be carried in grey left of the screen.

Edward Keith Stoddard Jr. really likes his PlayStation 3. So much, in fact, that if you were to touch his PS3, he may just kill you. Such was the fate of his neighbor, Douglas F. Abrams, who Stoddard believed had taken his console. During an argument over the missing system, police say Stoddard shot Abrams, fatally wounding him. When cops showed up on the scene, Stoddard surrendered and was taken to Land O'Lakes jail (no, really) in Dade County, Florida. It's okay to love your console, people -- just don't get jealous if it drops by the neighbor's house for some tea.

Modder extraordinaire Ben Heckendorn could easily be resting on his laurels by now but, thankfully for us, he continues to churn out console mods and accessories like nobody's business, and his latest creation easily meets the high standard he's set for himself. Designed for the Games for Health conference, this one continues his line of one-handed controllers, with the pedals in this case replacing the strum and whammy bar from a standard Guitar Hero controller, letting you use a single hand for the chords. As you can see, everything is also obviously done with Ben Heck's usual fit and finish, and even a bit of clever salvaging, with an Atari Jaguar controller cable used with one of the pedals -- Ben just hopes that "doesn't jinx anything.

Toshiba recently announced they're planning to use Sony PS3 technology in its upcoming TVs and Notebooks. The OC Register's Gadgetress got her hands on the Toshiba's Qosmio notebook (shown above), which will use the SpursEngine chip, jointly developed between Toshiba and Sony around the Cell. The processor will handle much of the video and multimedia processing, taking the load off the main CPU.

So I ran into a bit of a snag with my PlayStation 3 last week when I went to pick up Iron Man only to discover my system would not play Blu-ray games or movies any longer. PlayStation 2 games and DVDs run just fine, but Blu-ray just poops out without even trying to read the disc. I had put off calling support in the same way I generally put off calling the doctor, hoping that whatever is wrong will just fix itself (Mike, your arm's fallen off - It'll get better!), but after wistfully browsing the Blu-ray movie aisle at a local retail establishment it was time to make the call.
After navigating the PlayStation support line's various menus and advertisements, I got on the line with a support specialist I will call Denise, mainly because I completely forgot to write down her real name. Denise had never encountered this particular issue before, so she put me on hold to research a bit in between restoring the system's default setting and performing a hard reset. The verdict? My poor little PS3 is dead.
Not all the way dead, mind you. I can still play PlayStation 2 games and access the PSN. It seems as if the Blu-ray portion of the drive just gave up the ghost, turning the system into something of a PlayStation 2.5. It could be as simple as dust on the lens, but the PS3's Blu-ray workings are situated in a place where compressed air fears to tread. I could open the system and futz around inside, but...no. Electronics have been known to spontaneously catch on fire when I even consider touching them, just to save themselves from the horror my giant snausage fingers would inflict upon them.
So it's back to repair for my shiny black system, eventually. I am currently playing through Mana Khemia for the PS2 on it, and while I have a fully functioning memory card adapter there is no way I can go back to playing this on my composite-connected PS2 after starting it on my HDMI PS3. The whole thing will run me $149, but it sure beats just buying a new one.
The ultimate irony here is that right next to my PlayStation 3 sits my launch Xbox 360, it's glowing green light mocking my plight. Truly I must live in some sort of bizarro world when the world's most unreliable video game console lasts longer than what I often considered the most solid piece of video game hardware to come out in years. If I had to guess, I'd say the PS3 committed suicide after too many viewings of A Knight's Tale on Blu-ray. I shall be more careful of my viewing habits in the future.

Jeff has released a new version of his Rogue clone for the Nintendo DS/GBA and also the PSP, heres whats new:
My time in Japan prevented me from making a release (I had turned off two of the machines I need to build on), but it didn't prevent me from working on POWDER. There are lots of various changes including new items and skills. There is also a new 32x32 tileset that you can find in the artpack thanks to Ibson the Grey.
[All but GBA]: When you load a game, the fact you have loaded it is immediately saved. This means you can no longer power down before you die to avoid save scumming. (Eilu, Zach Firth)
Familiars always leave corpses to facillitate their resurrection.
Petrified creatures count to your kill total
You are only punished for the death of a familiar when the death becomes irrevocable.
The party guilty for creating traps, lava, etc, is now tracked so proper responsibility can be assigned. (Andrew Poandl)
Dodge Skill's "foes" properly 'ified. (David Damerell)
Extra flavour text from Eilu.
Ricochet skill for arrows. (Furrot)
You can climb trees. (Adam Boyd)
When a bitmap has to many colours, it now fails more gracefully. (Ibson the Grey)
An embarassing mistake in combat calcs has been fixed. It is now the attacker's skill, not the defender's, used to roll attack bonus. This will mean weapon skills are more necessary and make monsters more threatening since they always default to 2 stars.
Jumping out of a pit only moves you one square. (Irashtar)
Incorrect there in helm of draining description (Mark Rushakoff)
Adjusted some monster sizes to better reflect how I envision them. Hopefully this doesn't affect food nutrition balance too much. (David Damerell)
When you die your options are saved even if you don't make the high score table. (Zappa Penguin)
Knock no longer closes the door if an item or creature blocks it.
Knock cast on doors with creatures on them will knock them back and damage them slightly. (Lim-Dul)
Light radius for creatures on fire increased to 2 from 1 to make it a bit less subtle. (R. Dan Henry)
[Start] and [Select] can be used to enter and shift respectively on the on-screen keyboard. (Zappa Penguin)
You can eat water elementals, but be warned there might still be some life in them. (Eilu)
Polying into or polying back into gargantuan forms will crush any walls that would entrap you. (Korgoth)
Flaming swords slightly nerfed to 1d3 fire damage to prevent them from being such an obvious weapon choice.
New item: lightning rapier. (Terje)
New item: ice mace.
Imps summoned by demons that you summon will no longer attack you provided the demon stil lives.
Monsters should now open doors if they are smart enough. (Derek Ray)
New monster: Kobold Thief.
You can now wish to learn a skill directly rather than having to acquire the specific book.
"wizard's hands" in chilling touch description, "an uber-storm" for a living frost, along with an extra hyphen in that description. Description of Pax clarified to resolve amiguous sentence and disarm skill description has an s returned to it. Finally, another lost s added to the flesh golem description. (R. Dan Henry)
"You gain insight into the nature of foo." now has a full stop. (David Damerell)
Ibson the Grey has produced a new 32x32 tileset based on the rltiles to give you some high resolution POWDER experience. Since this isn't the 16x16 res, it doesn't come packaged with POWDER but has to be installed manually from the artpack.
Gameboy Advance [502k].
Nintendo DS [926k].
Playstation Portable SDL [832k].

News/release from maxthebest
Hi guys!
Just released my irshell plugins that allows you to encrypt/decrypt your sensible files directly form IRSHELL's file browser.
Here are the changelogs of cypher-me since version 0.1b:
Quote:

-Now, if there is not enough room on the memory stick, it will display a message telling you you can't encrypt the file (it used to crash if file was too big)
-Now it displays "encrypting" when encrypting, and "decrypting" when decrypting, it used to display encrypting, even when you were decrypting.
-Added a way to know if file is encrypted or not (see above)
-Added a menu
How to install this?
Quote:
Originally Posted by README
-YOU MUST HAVE THE LATEST IRSHELL VERSION INSTALLED
-Put the Eboot.PBP to IRSHELL/EXTAPP/APP19/
-Configure the plugin through the irshell configurator, put Encrypt as name and 19 for the adress.
-Now when you want to encrypt a file just press start highlighting it and press the Encrypt button!
As usual, if anyone has a question, no matter if it is stupid or not, don't hesitate, send a pm or an email.
And don't forget to read the readme file

Here’s a short demo of Ikuze! Gen-San: Yuuyake Daiku Monogatari (my poor translation says it’s like Go! Gen-san: A Carpenter’s Story) I downloaded from the PSP Japan site. It’s Irem’s side-scrolling action game featuring a kind hearted carpenter dying to help people and kick out an evil construction company, with the help of a girl friend who happens to be the daughter of another construction company.
The demo lets you play a portion of a street with four level of difficulties (beginner to legendary). The control is very simple, triangle for swing, square for knocking from top and X for jumping. Also, pressing X followed by pressing the down and triangle button together will unleash a cool special attack. Break the crate on top of the blue vehicle (see image above) for a helmet that will keep you safe from one hit. Once you’ve beaten the monster crane, don’t forget to jump on top of it and be the evil constructor for a few seconds Note: Save the unzipped folder into the “GAME” folder of your memory stick. The demo require Firmware 3.95.
The demo is too short for me but it’s surprisingly fun (Play-Asia.com has it for $48.90). The game is coming out in Japan on May 15th.

Metal Gear Solid 4 creator Hideo Kojima has said his comments about being limited by the PS3 hardware were taken out of context as a result of Japanese to English translations.
He is, apparently, more than happy with what he had to work with and what he achieved, and points to the cultural difference in modesty for skewing the facts.
"I am Japanese, so I try to be modest. I'm an especially modest person. I don't wish to brag about it and say, 'I am the amazing Metal Gear guy', or say, 'This is the best one', just like how Americans brag [about] stuff like this," said Kojima in a translation on the PlayStation.com forums (translated by Kotaku).
"Westerners do not have a tradition of modesty, so the statements are translated correctly but the original meaning is totally different."
Kojima had originally said that conceptually the PS3 had appeared to be a dream machine with endless possibilities, and he had planned Metal Gear Solid 4 and its innovations with this in mind.
However, soon he had to cut back on his original vision once he ran into the "restrictions" of the Cell processor. The reality was taking just "one step" rather than 10. Apparently this was misconstrued. This is what he really wanted to say:
"Let's say this developer is making a new kind of car. He claims it can fly. And when you claim it can fly then the expectation grows so the developer sets his goals higher. The expectation is that if the car can fly then it should reach MACH speed. But it doesn't stop there; it soon gets to 'it should go into space'," said Kojima.
"However, the developer will end up going to the public and saying that the car reaches MACH speed but it fails to go into space. But he shouldn't give up, because for a car to even reach MACH speed and fly is revolutionary. I wished to transfer my thoughts like this, but it didn't work out very well."
The result is that Kojima may not do any more interviews with the English press, at least until his anger subsides.
"MGS4 isn't exactly my property so I don't have total control over it and sometimes I get confused with it. Some may be disappointed with the way I say things, but I am releasing this game with confidence," concluded Kojima.

Konami has announced a UK Limited Edition version of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots as well as a special pre-order campaign.
The Limited Edition will retail for GBP 79.99 and will include a six-inch-tall Old Snake action figure, a soundtrack CD and a "Making Of" Blu-ray featuring a pair of high-definition documentaries including lots of chatter from Kojima Productions staff, including Hideo himself. The package is exclusive to Play.com.
The US version of the Limited Edition also promises "collectible packaging with exclusive artwork by famed Kojima Productions illustrator Yoji Shinkawa", but a spokesperson for Konami wasn't able to immediately confirm that for the UK.
Meanwhile, those of you who pre-order MGS4 from GAME can expect to be rewarded with a DVD called Metal Gear Saga Vol. 2, featuring a seven-part documentary about the series origins and evolution - the same disc made available for US and Canadian pre-orders.
"Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is rightly seen as the stand-out title for 2008, and we were determined to come up with something special for its launch," said Martin Schneider, Konami's European marketing director.
"With interest so high, it is only right that we reward fans of the series for pre-ordering the game, and the Metal Gear Saga DVD is a stunning look at how the series has evolved into the phenomenon it has become. Likewise, the Limited Edition is a celebration of all things Metal Gear, and will be prized by those who buy it."
The full version of MGS4 is due out on 12th June.

Sony has declared its intentions to feature online games at the forefront of its PlayStation 3 strategy in the future.
Speaking with The Seattle Times, Sony Online Entertainment President John Smedley highlighted the importance of online genre.
"I think MMOs are going to be a real strong selling point for the PS3 long term - there's going to be some great ones on the PS3."
"You're not going to find "The Agency" on the [Xbox 360]," he added.
For those unaware, The Agency is a massively multiplayer online shooter currently in development by Sony Online Entertainment for the PS3. So he's right in the literal sense - we don't think Sony will bring The Agency to the 360 any time soon.
But we can't see a reason why something like The Agency couldn't appear on Microsoft's platform, though.

So you've conquered the links of Out of Bounds. You've gathered every outfit, club and ball for your golfers. You've even maxed out every character's loyalty rating, making you virtually unstoppable on any course. What else is there to do? Well, Sony's going to be rolling out the first of their new downloadable content for Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds later this week, starting with two new characters, Alex and Gloria. Each player will have their own strengths and weaknesses, which should add a little extra complexity to their playing style.
Hot Shots fans will remember Gloria, particularly because she's been in every Hot Shots Golf game released. While she had a quick appearance in Hot Shots Tennis on the PS2, Clap Hanz was waiting until the right time to include her in Out of Bounds. Supposedly, she has an excellent straight shot, but she's somewhat weak in bunkers. Alex, on the other hand, is a brand new character to the Hot Shots series. A television presenter and golf enthusiast, she's designed for intermediate players.
These two new characters will be available for $.99 each, and more downloadable content for Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds should be coming soon.

SNK Playmore and Ignition Entertainment have announced the European release date for Fatal Fury: Battle Archives Volume 1. The compilation will be released on the PlayStation 2 in August, 2008.
The original Fatal Fury game was unleashed upon an unsuspecting world way back in 1991, chronicling the adventures of Joe Higashi and the brothers Bogard, focusing on their struggle with Southtown's criminal kingpin, Geese Howard.
Those of us old and wizened enough to remember back this far might chuckle at the platform which hosted the original Fatal Fury game. The NeoGeo was renowned for its ludicrously expensive games, some breaking the £100 pound barrier.
Nevertheless, Fatal Fury is fondly remembered by consolers, with many sequels spawning from the original's success. Indeed, the King of Fighters series was born from these humble beginnings.
Back in the present then, the first volume of the Fatal Fury collection will consist of the original game, Fatal Fury 2, Fatal Fury Special and Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory.
"The Fatal Fury franchise contains a real piece of SNK’s history.’ says Peter Rollinson, product manager at Ignition Entertainment. ‘It was these games that helped mould the successful gaming track record that SNK enjoys."
Features include:
* Arcade Perfect conversions
* 4 games on 1 action packed disc
* 2 Player Co-op fighting
* Use your hidden abilities to inflict massive damage
* The first to incorporate two-plane fighting in a 2D setting
* Contains newly arranged soundtracks
* Bonus playable character – Ryo Sakazaki
* Colour Edit mode – Customise your favourite character

When Sega announced Phantasy Star Portable for PSP, it seemed like a good fit. The PSP is doing extremely well for itself in Japan currently, and with Phantasy Star Online servers shutting down left and right, a move to a hot platform certainly can't hurt. With Monster Hunter Portable G 2nd for the PSP moving some 2 million copies in Japan, more group beast slaying and item finding over a wireless connection will almost certainly be welcomed by the Japanese gamer.
Unsurprisingly, when seeing the newly revealed artwork for Phantasy Star Portable, I was immediately reminded of Capcom's Monster Hunter; surely not an accident on Sega's part. Gone are the soft illustrations of the pointy-eared character cast from Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Universe, replaced by big action, big dragons and big weapons. The logo? Similarly Monster Hunter-ish in its grittiness.
Probably a step in the right direction for Sega, but we wonder how many Monster Hunter devotees will judge Phantasy Star Portable a worthy purchase by its cover.

Movie director Uwe Boll reckons he could be the best person for the job of directing a movie based on Grand Theft Auto IV.
"Grand Theft Auto would be super interesting for me, and I think I would actually be the right guy to do it," he said, adding, "because my movies are all bloody and violent and I don't have a problem with action scenes.
"But look, they will go, in the end, with a Michael Bay or a Brett Ratner, and it will be a PG-13 movie made for $150 million. I think it would be better to make a $30 million, very hard, brutal movie without compromising, but I'm not optimistic."

A lengthy development period is at last winding down for Metal Gear Solid 4 as the game approaches its June 12 world release. But Hideo Kojima and the MGS4 staff aren't resting just yet. Today, Kojima revealed an ambitious plan to personally help launch the game throughout the world.
Kojima and key staff members will travel the world as the June 12 launch day approaches, holding talk events and signings for fans. The tour will take Kojima and crew first to London, followed by stops in Madrid, Milano, Hamburg, Amsterdam, and Paris. The team will then split into three, heading to Japan, New York and Los Angeles for launch day.
Closing off a press conference today in Tokyo, where this plan was first unveiled, Konami hinted at a few surprises for launch and beyond. At the end of the ceremony, as the press was getting ready to leave, a mysterious voice asked, "Will there be surprises on launch day?". The voice then continued, "Akihabara, New York, LA -- worldwide live broadcast." The voice also hinted that certain VIP guests will be present at whatever is going down in those three cities -- presumably a major launch event.
The mysterious voice closed off by asking, "So, how's that project going?", following with, "That man has moved away, but, the sequel." Finally, the voice said, "I see. Understood."
We immediately assumed that the sequel talk was with regards to a new Metal Gear game, with Hideo Kojima being the man who has moved away -- he has said that MGS4 will be has last Metal Gear Solid game, after all.

We've lost count of how many Metal Gear Solid 4 trailers Konami has pumped out, but we don't care. They're all awesome.
The voice we call Trailer Voiceover Man has turned up to provide the commentary for this typically cinematic trailer, in a language we can all understand, for a change.
It talks about the new Big Brother-style technology in the game, and the crisis that Snake faces.
It's a streaming trailer that can be viewed here, though you might have to be patient.
Needless to say, if you're one of those subjecting yourself to a complete MGS4 plot blackout, you probably shouldn't watch the footage.
What you should know, however, is that Official PlayStation Magazine awarded the game a resounding 10/10.
"If you think you've got the measure of the game from the Middle East footage, you couldn't be more wrong," says reviewer Paul Fitzpatrick.
"MGS4 shifts gears constantly, innovating again and again. I can't think of another series that has remained as uncompromisingly true to its creator's vision, and given its 21-year gestation, I doubt even Kojima himself will equal it, whatever individual triumphs follow," he says.
"Ultimately, this is a game for the fans - and should be one. As for Snake? It turns out his last stand really is his finest hour."
So, it's pretty good, then...

Broadband company PlusNet has said the day after Grand Theft Auto IV launched it saw its "two busiest ever hours for gaming in the UK".
The ISP watched 90,000 of you playing it online at one point, which is more than a third of its total subscriber base.
"The demand to play Grand Theft Auto IV online has been absolutely phenomenal. Our broadband usage figures have gone through the roof as customers battle it out on the streets of Liberty City," said Neil Armstrong, product director at PlusNet - over the moon and perhaps not for the first time.
"Our usage data shows that the day after release we had the two busiest ever hours for gaming in the UK.
"Gaming accounted for approximately 7.6 per cent of all downloads in that hour - we'd normally expect to see between 3.5 per cent and 5 per cent by gaming around that time of day," he added.
Between 8pm and 9pm on 30th April - the day after release - usage shot up by 30 percent on the previous day. The "unprecedented demand" continued early into the morning, with 4am to 7am traffic up by 35 percent.
The previous highest hour for online gaming witnessed by PlusNet was between 9pm and 10pm on 4th November, 2007. We're not sure what was special about this date; it was a few days before Call of Duty 4 came out, and the Sunday after Tabula Rasa and Hellgate came out.

A recently-released PS3 promo video offers a glimpse of what could be the next iteration of the PS Store, packing a search feature and video content.
At one point in the ad, screens of the PS Store whoosh past, revealing a search feature along the bottom panel of the Store that isn't in the current version.
In another fly-by shot, it also shows a video download page donning the logos of TV networks NBC, HBO, Cartoon Network (yes!) and MTV, among others. Could this be the first glimpse of what Sony has in store for PS3 video downloads?
Although no announcement has been made, Sony is expected to reveal plans for a video-on-demand system for PS3 for launch this year.
Check out the snapshots below taken from the trailer courtesy of eagle-eyed Scrawlfx.com, where you can also see the full, otherwise unexciting video of a guy acting like a complete plonker.

Enterbrain reports that Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G has now sold 2 million copies, almost three weeks after Capcom’s shipment announcement and less than 50 days after the game’s launch in Japan. The strong sales of MHP 2ndG also helped PSP stays as the best selling system in Japan for two consecutive months and looking good to reach the 10 million units sold milestone.

First off a personal thanks to Magixien the webmaster of the French PSP Scene site PSP Gen for this news and the english translation
In the article "Why a custom firmware 3.93 rather than 3.95 ?", We explained that 3.95 was regarded as no great novelty and interest. However, our fetish programmer had wanted to go ahead and after finding the keys to decrypt the firmware and updated RSPsarDumper, it has finalized a functional Custom Firmware 3.95. As for 3.93 CF, it is based on a reverse of the work of the Team M33 (involving a lot of changes, NIDS, patches, etc) but 3.95 parts is coded by our programmer alone.
It took a while to get there but it works very well even if some small bugs continue to be resistant. The test phase is therefore begun, and we try to make the best correct everything that is possible.
What does or does not, the new Custom Firmware ?
Launch ISO / homebrew 3.xx
Adding a name to differentiate firmware for PSP to 3.95 standard ones FC (general request in the forums).
POPS 3.95
IRShell functional functional execpt ISO Launch
PSP 5.0 Filer functional
Plug-in Capture.prx tested ok
Plug-in cwcheat.prx tested ok
Plug-in Recovery LE (Ketchup) and tested ok (except for displaying the version number blocked on 3.90M33 - Update plug-in planned)
The USB Host is always a bugguy but works perfectly with a small tip.
The recovery is still accessible directly via the XMB with the L key
CXMB does not currently works but we updating the plug-in is underway (just a problem of addresses to settle)
Popsloader not working. Only Dark_Alex can update its plug-in. Is not planned at this time.
Taking screenshots should be added. Still under discussion.
And when this will be released ?
No release date has yet been set. Our goal is to solve the majority of bugs before release Our goal is to release before this weekend. Stay tuned.
New custom firmware, sounds good to me

Hoping to ride the popularity coattails of Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, Sega's upcoming action RPG Phantasy Star Portable is gearing up for its summer release with a first trailer.
The PSP release, being produced by Sega's Sonic Team division, is based on the latest games in the series, Phantasy Star Universe and its expansion, Phantasy Star Universe: Ambition of the Illuminus, and will offer offline multi-player functionality, letting four players team up on quests, just like 2nd G.
As pointed out last week by Kotaku, the desire to entice Monster Hunter loving fans goes beyond game functionality, and includes an updated logo that bears more than a passing resemblance to Monster Hunter's logo.
The game comes out July 31st in Japan, and a UMD demo will be given out shortly before launch.

pipagerardo has just released a GREAT Homebrew game for our loved PSP. If you like action and tanks, this will your favourite Homebrew game.
What about if I tell you that you will be able to play with a friend using PSP AdHoc conection? If you prefer to play alone, you will have to defeat tanks. At first, you only have one opponent, but if you continue playing...you will have to defeat 5 tanks on the field at the same time!!!
Enjoy this marvelous game, PSP Slim compatible and translated into English. There are two downloads, one of them doesnt include background music, because it works better with AdHoc sinc.
I almost forget! pipagerardo has promised us to release future versions of the game, with new functions.
Enjoy.

Sony has reported that for the financial year ended March 31, 2008 it sold 9.24 PlayStation 3 consoles globally - up 5.63 million on the previous year - while software sales jumped by 44.6 million to hit 57.9 million across the 12 months.
Meanwhile the PlayStation Portable also performed well in terms of hardware sales, adding 4.36 million units over last year to bring it a total annual sales figure of 13.9 million.
The PlayStation 2, despite its ageing hardware, still shifted 13.73 million units - a decrease year-on-year of 980,000, but a strong performance nonetheless.
In terms of software sales, the PS2's enormous installed base led to sales of 154 million units, down 39.5 million on the year but still almost triple the other PlayStation platforms.
The PSP only showed minimal growth, however, adding just 800,000 games over last year to a 55.5 million total for the year to March 31.

Metal Gear Solid 4 will have an unlockable Altair costume in it after all.
Originally shown in a video released on April Fools Day, the Assassin's Creed character model will actually be in the game when it ships on 12th June worldwide.
How you unlock it is a mystery being kept by those to whom the secret was revealed in Tokyo this week, but it's not the only bizarre collaboration in MGS4.
According to GameSpot's account of the MGS4 wrap party, Snake also has an iPod in-game, which lets him play music he collects, with additional tracks set to be offered as DLC.
There's also a lot of raw product placement, like Triumph motorbikes, Sony Ericsson mobile phones and even some real-life clothing.
This being a Hideo Kojima production, and this being the last in the MGS series (at least until they change their minds again), goodness knows what else we'll discover - Psycho Mantis doing horoscopes, perhaps, or a radio contact who doesn't want you to lie on your tits in a warzone having existential discussions about soldiering.
We'll have to wait and see. The full game's out on PS3 on 12th June and we'll have a review for you very soon. In the meantime, check out our hands-on impressions of the finished game, which Oli was lucky enough to play in its entirety.

Starting tomorrow, echochrome's getting a booster shot of levels. Over on the PlayStation Blog, Kumi Yuasa, associate producer on the title, announced that 20 new, user-created puzzles will be available for players to peruse between May 15 and May 21.
"The additional levels will appear at random in freeform mode if you set your difficulty level to 2 or 3," Yuasa wrote. "The difficulty level is represented by the bars at the bottom right of the loading screen between freeform levels, and the difficulty for the next level can be set while the next level is loading by pressing left or right on the d-pad. Levels are picked randomly from all levels in your 'gallery,' 'portfolio,' and user-created levels."
The puzzle creators will get their just rewards as well because Yuasa will be revealing the PSN IDs for each level being distributed.

Ragnorak2040 has released a new version of Nes emulator for PS2:
Sorry, protomank and everyone, didn't realize I'd need a verified Paypal account just to receive donations, so I denied the donation, which should give you your money back, protomank. I couldn't find a way to actually get verified without a bank account. I tried adding a credit card, which didn't affect anything. They denied me for their credit card, which is weird since I've never had an outstanding debt. And so, I closed the account. I looked at other options but they required even more information than just a bank account like emailing copies of photo ID and utility bills. Fortunately, my brother does have a verified paypal account so I asked him (after waking him up) if I could use it for donations and he said it was alright. I removed the old donate button and put up the new one with a new button image at http://homebrew.thewaffleiron.net/ragnarok2040
Thanks for trying to donate before, though, protomank .
Thanks for the info., spkleader. I think the same problem that was affecting the hdd0:M/ type bug is still affecting the rest of the path where I add a random byte by accident. My pointer math is still fuzzy, it seems. It's probably affecting the savestate names as well. I'll rework the way I do it so I don't increment a byte after the memcpy for setting the null terminator of the string. I'm pretty sure where that extra "/" is coming from... "hdd0:/" "__boot" "/" "/boot" "C.elf". I guess when I fixed that bug with the device string, it caused my other pointers to get offset by one byte.
Edit:
Heh, I removed all the +1's when setting the null terminator and it didn't affect the creation of the strings, so my math had 1 byte of fuzziness per each part of the string :S. I'm not sure how it might relate to browsing for roms, though. Maybe something to do with the partition not being mounted or unmounted correctly, or the pfs# path is being returned wrong (pfs1 where it's mounted to pfs0, for instance). For rebooting an elf, the "pfs" path that's made needs to be valid, so it would crash if it wasn't... I'd also forgotten to increment past the '/' if there was only one, in your case pfs0:/boot.elf would become pfs0: / /boot# .elf# with random characters after /boot# and .elf# resulting in your pfs0://bootC.elf (hdd0:/__boot//bootC.elf). I changed the version number to B955 for build 95.5 which seemed like a good place to start.

- Operations are now logged into a file saved in the same Dump directory (InfectusLog.txt)
- A progress bar has been added in order to check the operation progresses.
- At the end of the operations a message box with a summary is now displayed.

Hey everyone,this isn't anything exciting but I just wanted to let you know.
Our download section has finally been brought up to date with all the updated versions of the GS and Pad plugins which are under development.
Also,some outdated and useless files have been removed to prevent confusion.
I've also updated our sourceforge page ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/pcsx2/) with the current info (it was last updated about 3 years ago!),added some screenshots and both FAQ - readme docs in the documentation section.
In other (more interesting for you) news,development is going good as you're able to see from the frequent SVN updates,with Refraction making the usual core changes,with a recent one giving a huge speed boost in some games (albeit breaking some,still trying to figure out what to do with that).
Saqib is also working on something behind the scenes,wait and see when it's done

We've got the first official pictures of Pelican's Metal Gear Solid 4 Bluetooth Headset for the PlayStation 3, which show off more of the product than the leaked sales sheets that hit the net a few weeks ago. As a matter of fact, our pictures are of the real product that just arrived in the office. While we work on the full review, take a look at what Snake would use for his calls if he didn't have slightly more advanced technology available.
We must note that this is a pre-production sample. Any finish imperfections will be addressed when the retail products ship in a month.
The MGS4 Headset is a standard Bluetooth 2.0 hands-free device, which means it can be paired with both the PlayStation 3 and any Bluetooth-enabled cell phone so you can rock it both at home and on the street. We're certainly down to roll with it in public, as it offers a good deal of contrast to the stand-issue Bluetooth headsets on the street. Spec-wise its battery life is rated at 8-hours of talk time and 160-hours of standby.
Pelican will launch the Metal Gear Solid 4 Bluetooth Headset day and date with the game's release, June 12. Retail price will be set at $59.99..

Speaking to VideoGamer.com at Sony's recent PlayStation Day Nigel Kershaw, MotorStorm Pacific Rift's game director, has revealed what it's like to develop for the PlayStation 3.
He added: "We've realised we've just scratched the surface of what we could actually do with the machine. And I'm sure next time around we'll learn a lot more from MotorStorm Pacific Rift."

Sony's gaming arm lost around $1.2 billion last year - an impovement from the $2.2bn loss the year before. But is Sony losing $260 per PS3?
"On Sony's own figures, the games division made a loss of $130 for each PlayStation 3 shipped. Let's assume that it's making pots of money on the PSP and the PlayStation 2: the PS2 is now hugely profitable and still sells more games than anything else. These two platforms could easily have made a profit of $1.2bn in the year. In that case, the total PS3 loss would have been $2.4bn shared between 9.24m PS3 consoles, or $260 per PS3 -- including any attached Sony games."

Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) announced today the upcoming release of Cabela's Legendary Adventures for PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, PSP (PlayStation Portable) system, and Wii. The latest title in the best-selling Cabela's franchise will allow players to relive the greatest hunting stories ever told. The game will hit shelves in Fall 2008.
"In Cabela's Legendary Adventures the missions are based on encounters with some of the most famous animals ever hunted in the wild," said Dave Oxford, Activision Publishing. "Focusing on these amazing once-in-a-lifetime stories has really allowed us to capture the essence of what hunting is all about - a quest for a legendary experience."
Players will hunt in different eras in search of trophies such as white-tailed deer, Yukon moose, Alaskan brown bear and Roosevelt elk in over ten of North America's top hunting locations, including Kodiak Island, the Yukon and the Rocky Mountains. Each location in Cabela's Legendary Adventures is a visually stunning open outdoor environment that encourages exploration and tactical variation. Shooting mechanics have been developed to reflect modern as well as historical hunting technology, so players relive the hunts complete with detail from specific time periods.
Under Cabela's guidance, the firearms, tactics and gear in Cabela's Legendary Adventures are as true to real life as a game will allow. The title will also include a large variety of additional hunts featuring over 30 species of other big game, small game, waterfowl, upland birds and turkey.
Cabela's Legendary Adventures is scheduled for release in Fall 2008. For more information visit www.activision.com.

Newly released today
Your link with your partner is the key element to victory in this 2D fighter. Choose two from the twenty four main characters from Bleach and form a tag team. Switch from one fighter to the other anytime you want at the expense of your tag gage. When the tag gage fills up completely, launch limit breaks on your opponents' team and be rewarded with a cool, fully voiced video clip. In this limitless condition, your partner and your attacks join together as one, and it is several times more powerful than single limit break.
When you decide to play the game alone, activate the story mode. The scenes and events are modeled loyally after the original manga. The animation from shi-kai to ban-gai are rendered seamlessly for the series's fans' enjoyment.

Sony's focus on profitability means a PlayStation 3 price cut is unlikely to happen this year, according to analysts Lazard Capital Markets.
In its recently released end of financial year results, Sony revealed a focus on achieving profitability in its PlayStation brand and rolling out online services, such as PlayStation Home.
As the company's priority in chasing unit market share against rivals Microsoft and Nintendo is lower, a price cut for the PS3 this year is unlikely, said the analyst.
"Console market share appears to be less of a priority; price cut less likely," explained Colin Sebastian of Lazard Capital Markets.
"On its earnings call, Sony management indicated the company is now more focused on achieving profitability in the PlayStation segment... Importantly, management comments also suggest that a price cut is less likely on the PS3 this year, at least in the near term."
Sony recently announced it expects to ship ten million PS3 units worldwide this year, an 8 per cent increase year over year.

Square Enix plans to unleash Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII here on 20th June.
This is the action RPG that proved monstrously popular in Japan last September. It's set before the events of Final Fantasy VII and has you in the boots of Zack who goes to find some missing people.
Crisis Core was one of the first titles announced for PSP and rightly looks rather pretty thanks to its elongated development. It has a fast-paced battle system, too, which will either make it or break it when we finally get our review-hands on it.

Codemasters has plonked the PS3 demo for Overlord on the PlayStation Store, which is a better place for it than in our pocket.
The publisher also cackled a 20th June release date for the full game, which it is calling an "extra evil" version of what we saw a while back on 360 and PC.
Why? Well, it has all the downloadable updates added to those in the box, such as online co-op, split-screen play, the on-screen mini-map and the Raising Hell expansion.
It should also look rather nice and make use of 7.1 speakers, which is rather a lot of sound.
Overlord, for those unaware, puts you in the boots of a despotic, er, Overlord, who has an army of minions to help him rampage through happy-go-lucky villages littered with helpless innocents.
The more successful you are, the bigger and more elaborate you can make your keep, and the more types of minion you will be able to add to your marauding army.
Its Dungeon Keeper-like delights thrilled us last summer on Xbox 360, so for anyone with half-an-ear for what we just said, this may be for you.

Reader Adrian's PS3 is broken and since the console was a gift that didn't come with a receipt, Sony is denying warranty coverage. Where it gets tricky is that there's a "manufactured on" sticker on the back of the machine indicating that it is clearly less than a year old -- meaning that there's no possible way it could be out of warranty coverage. Adrian tried explaining this concept to Sony, but they weren't interested. No receipt. No warranty. When Adrian threatened to switch to XBOX, Sony's only answer was that "their support wasn't much better."

News/release from Jsharrad:
Ever get tired of cygwin not working? Don't want to spend 8 hours compiling the toolchain? Want to be able to compile and install your own libs whenever you need them? Then this kit is for you!
I have taken a lightweight linux distrobution (slitaz, released about a month ago), stripped most of the non-development related stuff out, installed the gnu toolchain, PSP toolchain, and the PSPSDK, and packed it all into one 100mb virtual machine archive.
Edit: I'd like to give mad props to the Slitaz linux folks for this. I was a little vague above, but these guys put in a couple years hard work in this distro and I believe it's the smallest one out there right now. Without their distro to butcher, this would have been alot harder on me, so thanks guys!
You want it? Huh huh? You can pick it up HERE (100mb download) and save it somewhere with over 2gb of space available, but, there's some things you'll need to get first before you can get coding.

In order to prepare for the launch of the new season, we are pleased to release 5 new screenshots of Pro Cycling Manager - Tour de France 2008.
The management side of the game has been given extra depth with many new elements. It has an entirely new stamina system, a more realistic progression curve for each rider, a complete skills editor and a new young talent recruiting system with a more aggressive AI.
This year, the racing is even more realistic, with a reworked feeding system, an enhanced game interface and the most advanced rider AI yet plus highly detailed rider models and animations. The 2008 edition also includes a new improved user interface, lighting system and more detailed, richer environments with a large variety of buildings and landscapes.
For the first time in the series, impressive “track racing” events are available. Choose track events such as cycle speedway, Kierin and elimination to challenge your team’s track racing skills. All of these features combined make this new edition the most complete and exciting recreation of professional cycling.
Far from just a simple port of the PC version, the PSP version of Pro Cycling – Tour de France 2008 has been specially designed to make use of the unique features of the Sony PSP while offering optimized gameplay. Racing is the true attraction of this version thanks to the ability to participate in the greatest international cycling competitions, including the new track races, and the Tour de France 2008 which has been faithfully recreated. So choose the team you wish to bring to the top amongst one of the 18 official teams available and all the star players. This 2008 edition lets you challenge your friends in multiplayer mode via LAN or via the PSP WiFi features.
Both titles will be released on June 19th 2008.

At the Konami press event last night, three new DDR games were announced on three separate platforms, each with a bunch of new features to bring to the table. Sony's aging platform was not left out of the fun, as it will be getting Dance Dance Revolution X this Fall. This title continues the long relationship that the PS2 has with the DDR franchise.
Although the game wasn't playable at the event, we were told that it will sport several new features to entice long-time DDR fans. The game will have enhanced graphics and more characters, 70 songs to enjoy and it will bring back the popular Workout Mode to the package. DDR X will be compatible with the EyeToy so you can again bring yourself into the game.
The last big announcement made regarding DDR X was the one advantage it has over the other two titles: LAN battles. You'll be able to hook up four PS2s together and have up to eight friends testing their dancing might on the iconic DDR pad.

For those of you continuing to have Grand Theft Auto IV lockups on your PS3 even after the May 7th Rockstar patch... tough noogies. The latest 2.35 firmware won't specifically help. Sony says that the "minor update" will "improve stability of some PS3 titles" -- then clarifies that GTA IV is not part of the vagary. Nevertheless, Sony does say that they "have a identified a solution that should resolve the issue." So buck up Niko and get on the horn with Sony, God knows the police won't help.

While we've known for some time that the "Gun Metal Gray" PlayStation 3 bundle -- featuring a shiny 40GB model, a matching DualShock 3 controller and a Limited Edition copy of geriatric sneakfest, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots -- would be available to Americans, we didn't know until now that it would only be available to Americans logging onto Konami's website. Online and inevitably scarce pre-orders for the $599.99 package will start on May 19th, so you'd better get clicking if you want Snake and Gray Box to face off in your living room.
No, we mean it. Judging by Konami's labyrinthine sign-up process for the Metal Gear Online Beta, you'll need at least several days to prepare a registration, obtain an ID, convert that into e-currency, trade it in for the microfilm, enter the password, steal the key code, write the secret URL on a postcard and summon Hideo Kojima in an arcane ritual.
Note: This bundle is different from the regular, $499 MGS4 bundle which includes an 80GB PS3 and a DualShock 3.

Tumbling into availability are depressing if iconic tracks like "Everybody Hurts" by R.E.M, anything by Coldplay, something by Aslan who we thought was a fantasy lion, and "Sing It Back" by Moloko, which we quite like.
Oh look there's some Westlife for you as well, and some Avril Lavigne. There's even a bit of Roy Orbison.
Tracks cost GBP 0.99 as always which, as Tom found out, mounts up rather quickly.

- Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms
- R.E.M. - Everybody Hurts
- Wilson Phillips - Hold On
- Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen In Love (With Someone You shouldn't've)?
- Alphabeat - Fantastic 6
- The Vines - Get Free
- Roy Orbison - Only The Lonely (Know The Way I Feel)
- Westlife - Queen Of My Heart
- The Hoosiers - Cops N Robbers
- Coldplay - Shiver
- Coldplay - The Scientist
- Duran Duran - The Reflex

Sony has confirmed that developers can now integrate YouTube functionality in upcoming or existing PS3 games.
Specifically this will allow you to capture and upload footage recorded while playing, according to the announcement on API.
The deal was made this week, and Sony has offered the development software to studios across all regions.
It won't be the first video capture software included in games, of course; Halo 3 let you show murderous footage to each other and Ninja Gaiden II has its fancy Ninja Cinema.
However, it does set a rather meaty precedent, given the popularity of YouTube, which - we think - only Spore has taken advantage of so far.

Apparently, rumble does matter to a lot of Americans. According to SCEA, the feedback-giving DualShock 3 had $10.9 million [£5.57m] in sales during the month of April, meaning that about 200,000 Americans were ready to put down $55 [£28] for some vibration from their PS3 controller.
As we learned from our initial impression of the DualShock 3: Yes, it's worth it. We do know that the Sixaxis is on its way out, but at this point only the MGS bundles come with the DS3. We're still waiting for the "official" changeover to occur with regular PS3 consoles.

During a promotional trailer for the band's forthcoming studio album, Metallica has declared said that its music is the "most requested" on both Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
You may remember a few years back that the aging US rock chuggers were on the verge of appearing in their very own vide game under the Vivendi / Sierra moniker. The "high action, third person vehicle combat game packed with fully customised vehicles and weaponry, endless terrain and desperate, murderous opponents" was due out in 2005 but it never happened. There was even going to be voice-overs from band and background music supplied from Metallica. An original song was also in the works for the title.
But all that never happened. Probably because someone eventually realised that it sounded horrific on paper. Worse even than the Load and St Anger albums put together. Thank god for the emergence then of Guitar Hero and Rock Band, which have given fans a chance to be in the band rather than drive it around, running people over.
Metallica classics such as One, And Justice For All..., Blackened and Ride the Lightning are just some of what's already available. But with the band's claim that its tunes are the most requested for both games, looks like they'll be plenty more in store. Bring on Battery and Damage Inc., we say...

As we approach the July 31 Japanese release of Phantasy Star Portable, new information on the game continues to roll in. Here are some of the new features and changes you can expect to see.
Character import
Players will be able to import their characters from the PC/PS2 versions of Phantasy Star Universe to the PSP version. When transferred over, characters will retain their name, race, sex, voice, clothes/parts and level (though if you are over LV20, your imported character will be reduced to LV20). Data which will not carry over includes your equipment, inventory, photon arts, Guardian type and partner machine.
System changes
The weapon grinding system has been modified so that all weapons have a 100% success rate. However, the amount that a stat increases with each grind will be random.
Item drops have also been modified. With PSP, the items that drop in a mission are determined in part by the Guardian type of the party leader. Also, rare items will be distributed to all party members instead of only one player.
City navigation has received an overhaul. With this game, players will no longer have to traverse a city to move from shop to shop. Instead, a menu will be displayed which will allow players to choose a location and immediately transport there.
That's not all, of course! For more information on what to expect from Phantasy Star Portable, please see this thread.

Let's say you've got $135,000 lying around the house. You're a big PS3 fan, and you just don't know what to do with all that money. Sure, you could buy a bunch of PS3s for hospitals or charities or something, help out people in need, but that's boring. Why don't you blow it all on this auction for a PS3 entirely covered in Swarovski Crystals? Note I say blow it on the auction, not the PS3 itself, because if this is real then I'll...look, just read the auction listing, there's no way this is real.

ragnarok2040 has posted a new alpha of the Snes emulator for the PS2, heres the release details:
I've already released a couple of builds so people could try it out. Alpha2 is the latest version. It supports one controller mapped to a standard snes controller, just push L2 to get back to the file browser. There's no sound support, or hi-res support or transparency support, and booting new roms is a little broken. It's also kind of fast because the sound core isn't enabled, heh. With it enabled, it's pretty slow.
If you want to try it out, I uploaded the source and the latest alpha2 builds to:
http://homebrew.thewaffleiron.net/ragnarok2040/
They're named packed_snes9xPAL.zip and packed_snes9xNTSC.zip.

Eb0x v1.0 means "Eboot Extractor v1.0". With help of this nifty application
you can extract the content of an EBOOT.PBP. For example
Eb0x v1.0 can extract the preview-pictures or thumbnails out of an EBOOT.PBP.
For the computer there's already such applications, such as
PBP Unpacker or SeiPSPTool.
In contrast to the computerprograms Eb0x can extract the data right on your PSP.
At the moment Eb0x can only extract the following files:
-Icon0.png
-Pic1.png
-Param.sfo
-Data.psp
Snd0.at3 and .psf-videos are not yet extractable.
There may be some bugs in Eb0x v1.0.

Dark_AleX is not (currently) working on hacking the ps3 in any ways. This is ONLY a www.dark-alex.org design related change which has nothing related to Alex's work. Alex is still focussing on the psp as we speak. Please give him a break, if he ever wishes to start working on the ps3 or release anything ps3 related, you'll eventually be told.
Thanks for your understanding.

asmodean posted this news/release:
I've written a small tool that can force some games to run at 480p. I'm interested to get any feedback from you guys experienced with the platform.
The tool patches parameters to sceGsResetGraph() and can adjust the DY value in tGS_DISPLAY2 (some games pass a smaller value when in 480p, causing the screen to cut off at the top). This latter part is most of the work.
One outstanding problem is that some games run at an unnaturally high frame rate after being forced to 480p.

News/release from Mistabeen:
Hi all
I was looking for a way to use my PSP as an extra (mini)monitor on my pc so I could read IRC while I was working in another aplication
I tried using a virtual monitor and then stream it to the PSP using VLC but it was just too slow to be of any good use
So I wrote a small php script that monitors the IRC chatlog and displays it, so every time someone says something in the channel you are monitorring it shows up on the PSP.
I know this isn't actual "Homebrew", I don't know where else to place this. Mods feel free to move this to the correct forum if this belongs somewhere else. I just wanted to share this in case someone else would enjoy this.
screenshot of how this looks on your PSP
What do you need?
- a local webserver that supports PHP (if you don't know what this is, just install WAMP)
- mIRC
- IRC Script
- a PSP
- a wireless network
1. A local webserver
For those who know what this is, you can skip this step, for those who don't, read on.
This script uses PHP, so you need to install a local webserver to run this script. If you have no experience whatsoever, install WAMP
http://www.en.wampserver.com/
If everything works out fine, you should be able to just install and run the server just under a minute
Be sure to START your server afther you installed it
2. Setting up mIRC
You need to change your mIRC settings too log your channels and save them to your webserver directory.
For people who use WAMP this is C:/wamp/www/
A small screenshot of my IRC log settings
3. Setting up the IRC script
Before you do this step, it is best to run IRC first and connect to the channel you want to log. this way IRC can generate the logfile first
Now you extract the zip file atached to this post to the same directory you chose to save your logs in. (for people who are using wamp and following these steps, you extract the file to C:/wamp/www/ )
Now open up the file (irc.php) in an editor (notepad will do if you don't have anything else)
and change the first 3 acual lines of code
PHP Code:
// the script will refresh itself every # amount of seconds you define here
// default: header('Refresh: 1; url=irc.php#end');
header('Refresh: 1; url=irc.php#end');
// change this to the log filename you want to monitor
$myFile = "#channel.server.log";
// change the name that will be displayed in the bookmarks
// the default $myTitle = "Default Name"; will be displayed as "IRC viewer :: Default Name"
$myTitle = "Default Name";
To those who know PHP, this might not be the best script you have ever seen, but it does the job there is definatly room for improvement
4. Running the script
Open your PSP webbrowser and go to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/irc.php#end
(replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the IP adress of your computer)
Enjoy, you can now monitor your favorite IRC channel while using another aplication.
It's not the same as an extended desktop, but you can read IRC without having to Alt-tab all the time

News/release from albandu51
Pxl_Installer can download and install themes official (Format FTP) and the unofficial themes to CBC. There is therefore no risk of brick given that the themes used CBC via CXMB.
Pxl_Installer can also download wallpapers who settle directly into the folder "PICTURE" and Homebrews who settle in the PSP folder / Game.
Finally, this homebrew can also download and install the plugin CXMB bypassing the PC, adding the line of PRX in "vsh.txt" An auto detection Firmware is used to download the correct version of the plugin.
Quote:
What's new?
-- Fixed bugs
-- Adding theme FTP and CTF
-- Adding Wallpapers
-- Display% downloaded
Quote:
And in the next Release?
-- Downloader + Extractor (. Zip) link URL
-- Background Music
-- Added themes
Thanks to J3r3mie for its valuable assistance, including the choice of Wallpapers, Homebrews and Previews
PS: You may encounter a bug display from time to time! This will be resolved in the next version!

Free Radical's creative lead, Derek Littlewood has shunned internet hissy-fits over the revelation that Haze on PS3 doesn't run in native 720p.
Haze is the latest of a number of games to run in a lower frame rate than the HD standard 720p, for the benefit of a smoother frame rate.
Littlewood confirmed that the final game will run in a resolution of 1024 x 576, essentially shaving 144 horizontal lines off of a typical 1024 x 720 picture, but he dismisses critics' "it's not true HD" cries.
"We prioritise a nice smooth framerate over a different res," Littlewood told Ripten.
"Personally, I don't really buy the whole thing. People did the same with Call of Duty, they did the same with Halo, and they say with those games 'It's not running at true HD!'
"I don't care. If the game looks good and it runs smoothly, those are the important things to me. I don't understand why people care whether there's 20 pixels, 50 pixels, or 100 pixels more..."
In case you're not up on this techy babble, developers occasionally reduce the pixels on screen to help free up some processing power for a smoother frame rate - as did FPS big wigs Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4.
Did you notice? Do you care?

SCE Australia managing director Michael Ephraim says that the PlayStation 3 far outsold Microsoft's Xbox 360 in Australia during the first quarter of 2008.
Ephraim told PALGN that the PS3 outsold Xbox 360 by 45 percent in Australia during Q1 2008, and that he expects the console's domestic installed base to top that of Microsoft's 360 by the end of the year.
"I can tell you in the first quarter of 2008 we have outsold Xbox 360 by around 45 percent," he said. "That is not including the Bravia deal, which moved through around 30,000 units, so if you add the Bravia deal to our global sales we have now, in the first quarter of 2008 we have outsold the Xbox 360 by two to one.
"We think it's a matter of time before we surpass the [Xbox 360] install base... We're just guessing somewhere around the end of the year, if not sooner if the trend keeps going the way it is."
Earlier this month Sony Computer Entertainment Australia announced that the PS3 had reached an installed base of 238,000 during its first year on the market, eclipsing the year one performance of the PS2.
The figure, which came directly from Sony and not official industry sales monitor GfK Australia, may also have included more than 28,000 consoles given away as part of a Sony Bravia LCD holiday promotion.

A JURY has been sent home for the night after failing to reach conclusive verdicts on whether two men stole £700,000 of PlayStation games consoles from a Northampton warehouse.
Partizan Zekaj, 28, and Nard Paloka, 29, are accused of using inside information they gained while working at NYK Logistics in Grange Park, Northampton to steal a lorry load of consoles.
They deny theft and have been on trial at Northampton Crown Court for the past week.
Judge Charles Wide QC today spent the morning summing up the prosecution and defence cases to the jury before sending them out to consider their verdicts.
However, they did not reach conclusive verdicts by the end of the day and are due to resume their deliberations tomorrow.
The two men were once employed at the distribution depot, next to the M1 at junction 15, and are accused of producing false documents to make off with a delivery of 1,,440 PlayStation 3 consoles.
Zekaj, of Wake Way, Grange Park and Paloka, from east London, who are from Albania, deny theft. The trial continues.

A major step for the PS2 Homebrew Scene is this release of Freevast which allows you to run Homebrew on an unmodified PS2. heres the details:
Most of you who've been following the project already know this, but it's time to post this to the front page.
jimmikaelkael has made it a bit easier to get homebrew loaded on your ps2's with dead lasers or slims without the constant need for a mod chip or swapmagic.
The project is currently released as a beta, so there are bugs in it, (mainly that it locks out the use of the C/DVD drive and some freezing.) But it currently has no issues with HDL. So please be patient while the bugs are being worked out.
I'll do a write up on a tutorial within the next couple days on a detailed install of the hack. (please don't bomb me or jimmikaelkael with PMs on this)
Many thanks goes to jimmikaelkael, yoshi314, stayhye, PALGamer, and everyone who contributed to this project!

PS3hax.net posted this on their site:
After a long time it finally seems that there might be a break through for the PS3 hacking scene. XVISTAMAN2005, has found a way to partially install a debug PS3 firmware on a retail PS3. Partially meaning that he has found a way to get a retail PS3 into debug mode, but currently the options are non functional.
So what is amazing about this? This gives PS3 hackers a huge new area to work with that was not previously available before, plus not to mention that devs already had a working ISO loader running on a full debug console (this method currently gives us a partial-debug console).
Whilst we are not at all interested in piracy/iso loaders the implications for PS3 Homebrew seem interesting but remember that a lot of sites claim to have exploits etc and even we have been duped so for now take any and all "exploits/breakthroughs" with a pinch of salt. Usually exploits will come from a known console hacker which has been the case down the years.

Who doesnt love toys and tonight a new one to try in the name of Valhalla Knights 2 in a demo form.
Description from the first game in series
A place that was forgotten from history, where humans, elves, dwarfs, halflings and other various races lived together in harmony... it was a paradise, surrounded by deep green forests and crystal clear streams. However, the roar of the demons tore apart their peaceful lives. It was the return of the Dark Lord, the previous ruler of the land, which sparked a new round of battles which would eventually encompass all the races. After years of fierce fighting, the Dark Lord was sealed away by the hands of the hero, Rastul. But from the blood of the demons, the land had been cursed and the sky lost its light. The cursed land entrapped the people, making every waking moment feel like an eternity. Eventually the land once known as a paradise came to be known as "The Cursed Land." One day, a youth wakes up in this land. In this land full of despair, the youth searches for his/her lost memory. What lies ahead are the discovery of his/her memories and the future of this forsaken land.

A new contestant has stepped foot in the Homebrew Idol arena, welcome Sangheili. Sangheili has come up with something you may already recognize in arcade form –
Yup, that’s Stacker all right — the game you’ve likely spent many pissed off hours in front of down at Philthy McNasty’s on King and John. Sadly, that machine isn’t there anymore. But that’s neither here nor there… This is Sangheili’s PSP Pileup — stack ‘em bricks to the top while maintaining your cool and quick reaction time.
The game is played with your PSP standing vertical; power switch towards you. Levels get increasingly faster as you go on; you’re also given the option to specify difficulty — easy, medium, or hard. Press X to lay the brick and continue piling them, one on top of the other.

Straight from the "spotted at the mall" files, one eagle-eyed tipster has shared a picture snapped at a local shopping venue where the presumably astounding PNP was being kept under lock and key. This marvel boasts the iconic PSP shape, obligatory D-pad, dedicated On / Off button (let's see your Sony do that... in this manner) and four puzzling buttons to the right of the "display" mounted in the middle. Yeah, it was only being sold for around $10, but you'd have to slip a Hamilton in our pocket before we'd mar our collection with this filth.

News of a great special offer from Play Asia:
This deal contains two separately packed Sony PSP™ rhythm games Pump It Up EXCEED and Pump It Up Zero for one great price. Developed by the Korean company Studio 9, the two games bear some striking resemblances with Konami's Bemani games, with more emphasis on free style and break dancing rhythms.
Although those familiar with the Bemani games will certainly have an extra edge, given the simple controls and concepts as well as fun elements, it will take no time before a total beginner becomes a veteran.
When the direction indicators overlap with the respective icons on top, press the right buttons in time and according to the rhythm.
Get consecutive beats correct to get a combo and perfect scores. Scores ranges from perfect to bad, to keep the game from ending before the song does, you have to keep your life bar from falling to zero by attaining good scores.
Use the points you earned to customize future games by buying new music pieces, dance steps, direction indicators etc in the store station.
The songs that make up the games are mostly Korean pop, but Studio 9 has assembled a group of musicians under the collective name of Banya to write songs specifically for the game. Pump it Up Exceed comes with ninety seven songs when Pump it Up Zero comes with a hundred and seventeen.
Practice your rhythms and moves on the go with Pump It Up EXCEED Portable + Pump It Up Zero Portable Bundle on your Sony PSP™ to amaze your friends with your improvements next time when you visit the arcades with them.
Studio 9's exciting rhythm game pack Pump It Up EXCEED Portable + Pump It Up Zero Portable Bundle for Sony PSP™ is now available at a bargain price of US$ 19.90 only. Although these are Korean version games, the dialogs can be switched to English, and since they are region free they can be played on any Sony PSP™ consoles.

Metal Gear Solid 4 will not necessarily be the end of the series, but rather the farewell to Solid Snake and his story.
That's according to game producer Ryan Payton, who explained that some people may have gotten the wrong end of the stick.
"I think there's been some misconceptions that this is the last Metal Gear. This is really just the last chapter of the saga of the Solid Snake story," Payton told MTV Multiplayer.
"[Solid Snake] was a burden [for Kojima] because of all those loose ends. So when you play Metal Gear Solid 4 and when you get to the end, I think you-re going to feel that, 'Wow, this is a nice closure.'
"All of the weird stuff that's gone on in the past, it's all coming to an end. All those weird questions - everything is answered," added Payton.
Metal Gear Solid 4 is due out around the world on 12th June, alongside its multiplayer spin-off Metal Gear Online.
The game will be a key exclusive for Sony in the format battle for 2008, although Konami has just revealed there will be no flashy gun metal grey PS3 hardware bundle for Europe.

33 new screenshots of Snake and Raiden doing their thing are out and they're not all in the dusty, grey Middle-Eastern environment we've seen a billion times already.
You can spot loads of cool features going on - see Snake in one shot using the SixAxis to control a small droid, or Snake dressed in the Altair (of Assassin's Creed fame) costume.
There even seems to be some sort of bike race going on in there. The shots (which turned up here) can be seen below.

Konami has confirmed there are no plans to make its Metal Gear Solid 4 hardware bundle available in the UK.
That's a shame, because Konami's bundle comes with a limited edition gun metal grey PS3. It can be pre-ordered via the publisher's website - if you're fast, as a limited number are on offer each day, and if you're American, as the bundle is "only available for pre-order to US residents".
So is there any chance the UK will get a similar deal? "Nope, sadly not," said a Konami spokesperson. "The only bundle we are doing is the Play.com special edition with figurine."
The special edition, you may recall, includes a soundtrack CD, a "Making Of" Blu-ray disc and the six-inch tall figurine. It costs GBP 79.99 and is available to pre-order exclusively at Play.com.
If you really must have a hardware bundle, Sony will be offering a PS3, Sixaxis and copy of the game for EUR 439. However, a Sony spokesperson told us, "I believe we will only be getting the standard black PS3 with the MGS4 bundle."

Sony has just unleashed three new high-res shots of Resistance 2, offering a glimpse of a level set in Chicago.
As you will have heard, the sequel takes the action away from the streets of UK cities and into major cities in the US, where we'll also hopefully get to shoot aliens in big cathedrals too.
The shots look like Top of the Pops shots to us, but it's one of the biggest PS3 games of the year, so stop complaining.

Gamers yearning for a futuristic anti-gravity racer, ala F-Zero and WipEout, will be happy to know that Eipix's Pyroblazer is blazing on through to fill that void (apologies for the pun, it was too easy). Players will take control of anti-gravity crafts called Blazers, and then battle through the varied lands of New Aperion. The game uses Eipix's own Ultra Engine in conjunction with Ageia's PhysX middleware.
Players can decimate other racers on the tracks by picking up weapon and ammo upgrades during the race. In addition, persistent players who battle their way through the championship mode are rewarded with faster and more powerful Blazers.
You can play the game single player via Quick Race or Championship, but the game also allows for 6 local players and includes online play.
While there is no release period for Pyroblazer on the PSP or Wii, the game is set to release on the PC sometime this May.

Following the request of several members on the forum, Kloups just add a eboot in its toolbox. Regarding the menu replacement "despertar del cementerio" it is still compatible Slim & Light EBOOT but it requires the kernel 1.50 or Time Machine.
But what then?
At the base, the Pandora elf Menu Jas0nuk replaces the "host" your Despertar del cementerio to launch files elf.
Kloups has therefore expanded with applications that can be very useful.
New in version 0.4:
Adding a file eboot.pbp (compatible Slim & Lite via the Time Machine)
New in the next version:
Compatibility 3.XX
You will need:
From a Kit Despertar del Cementerio V5 (Create a Kit Despertar del Cementerio V5) (Memory Stick + Battery)
From Multi Cementerio: Cementerio del Despertar 3.80/3.90/3.93
List utilities present:
Despertar del Cementerio V5: launches the original menu of Kit and allows installation of 3.90 / 3.90 M33-3 (the tutorial to use is available HERE)
Idstorage Manager 1.2: To save / analyze / fix and rewrite the "key" of your Idstorage
Pandora Installer for 3.xx RC 3: Allows among other program your battery and your Pandora MS Magic (functions available HERE).
Keycleaner 1.4: To save and analyze the "key" on your PSP.

Konami has temporarily ceased taking pre-orders on the Metal Gear Solid 4 hardware bundle, after a US deal launched on the official site yesterday went belly up.
Eager fans hoping to get hold of the limited-edition Gunmetal PS3 bundle, sold exclusively through the official online Konami Store, were greeted to "503 errors", according to Kotaku, who described the ordeal as "a cluster**** of massive proportions". Nice choice of words there.
The Store works at the moment. But it says the allocated pre-order stock for the day has been reached. It then asks you to "check back tomorrow (May 20, 2008), when we will make available more stock for pre-orders."
Not really one known for having solid internet servers, Konami really needs to prepare itself for the impact of another internet rush, so that it isn't hit with another disaster reminiscent of the Metal Gear Online beta fiasco.

It looks like those wanting to churn out some high-definition media away from their computers now have a new option to consider courtesy of Hitachi, which has just introduced its DZ-WR90 Blu-ray burner designed to be used with hard drive-based camcorders equipped with an eSATA port (which Hitachi just happens to make). That combo will apparently let you burn three hours of full-res footage onto a Blu-ray disc in one and half hours flat or, if you prefer, you can also cram an hour of 720 x 480 video onto a plain old DVD. No word on a price just yet, but you can apparently look for this one to hit Japan in mid-July.

We've seen plenty of attempts to use game console hardware as MIDI controllers, but they've usually involved complicated hacks and strange software kludges, so we're pretty curious to see if Curious Inventor's Midiator actually works as promised. The nondescript black box is supposed to map virtually any PS2 controller -- including wireless models and partial support for Guitar Hero axes -- to various standard MIDI controls, including use of the analog sticks as pitch bends and modulators. Not only that, but if you don't feel like buying the assembled kit for $79, you can get the schematics for free, and if you're handy with a soldering iron, you can even earn some cash by adding requested features like pressure-sensitivity and direct USB support to the unit.

Voice actor Michael Hollick was paid $100,000 [£50,797] for his fifteen-month stint as Niko Bellic in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Hollick, who was an unknown quantity before the game's blockbuster success, has mixed opinions on whether or not he was given a reasonable amount for his role in the biggest entertainment product of all time.
"Obviously I'm incredibly thankful to Rockstar for the opportunity to be in this game when I was just a nobody, an unknown quantity," he said last week according to the New York Times.
"But it's tough, when you see Grand Theft Auto IV out there as the biggest thing going right now, when they're making hundreds of millions of dollars, and we don't see any of it.
"I don't blame Rockstar," he was quick to add. "I blame our union for not having the agreements in place to protect the creative people who drive the sales of these games. Yes, the technology is important, but it's the human performances within them that people really connect to, and I hope actors will get more respect for the work they do within those technologies."
In most other mediums, Hollick would have been paid royalties for his voice appearing in the product. He said that he "asked about residuals when we negotiated, but I was told that was not a possibility."
The issue is further clouded by the inclusion of his voice in other media outlets advertising the game, including television, film, radio and the internet.
Unsurprisingly, other voice-actors in the game earned significantly less than Hollick. Ryan Johnston, who played Patrick McReary, said that he was paid $1,050 [£533.39] a day.
It must be terrible to earn $1,000 [£507.96] a day.

Sony US has explained that it moved Killzone 2 to February 2009 so the game didn't end up competing with others in its own catalogue.
The decision was purely a management one, explained Sony US speaker Ron Eagle, and nothing to do with any development problems.
"Killzone 2 was moved to Feb 2009 to make sure we didn't have three shooters in the marketplace competing for retail dollars during the same holiday season," said Ron Eagle, SCEA speaker, on the US PlayStation blog.
"To be clear, there is nothing wrong or causing a delay to the development of the title. We (SCEA) had to look at the [autumn] calendar with SOCOM, LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Resistance 2, plus some PSN titles and make a decision where each game should come out."
Mr. Eagle also revealed that there will be plenty more information to share on Killzone 2 in the "coming months", presumably at the E3 Media & Business Summit this summer.
"The [PlayStation Day] event was the first of many steps, but please rest assured that multiplayer, co-op, story weapons, etc. will be covered in the many steps to come," added Eagle.
That full PlayStation Day Killzone 2 trailer can be found now on Eurogamer TV, right here.

A number of GAME stores across the UK are warning pre-order customers that they might not be able to pick up their Rock Band bundles when the game is released this Friday.
The retail specialist has stopped taking pre-orders for the game in store, as new consumers become attracted to expensive offerings from publishers such as Electronic Arts, Activision and Nintendo.
"As with other hugely innovative and popular titles like Guitar Hero and Wii Fit, Rock Band is creating enormous interest from a new range of customers," a spokesperson for GAME told GamesIndustry.biz.
"This has meant that some of our stores have had to stop taking pre-orders because their launch stock of the Band in a Box pack has already been ordered."
Publisher Electronic Arts caused outrage amongst fans last month when it announced the price of the game in the UK.
The peripherals for the game are priced at GBP 129.99 with the game sold separately at GBP 49.99. In North America the game complete with instruments retails for around USD 169 [£85.84].
However, high pricing clearly hasn't deterred committed fans, with the game likely to sell out during the rest of the month.
"We are working closely with EA to bring more units in for the launch and immediately post-launch," added GAME.

It looks like Sony is aiming to put ColorWare out of business with all the new, brightly-colored PSP models it's introduced as of late, a streak that continues with the company's just-announced metallic blue model. This one is available exclusively in a new Madden NFL 09 bundle, which includes said game, along with a 1GB Memory Stick, the NFL: In Just One Play video on UMD, and a PSN voucher that'll let you download the Beats rhythm game free of charge. Look for it land on August 12th with the usual bundle price tag of $199.99.

Today Sony's PSP guys gave us a heads-up on what's next for the portable. Two years after launching in Japan, we're finally going to get GPS action for the PSP on this side of the pond. Happily, it looks like we'll be getting a much better package than Japan for a change.
Due in the next 12 months (hopefully by Christmas, but not likely), the US PSP navigation software will be all new and much sexier, powered by Tele Atlas with a solid, easy-to-use UI and great-looking maps. The coup de grace is full 3D walkthroughs of cities, supposedly first in the portable class, at least in the US. Sony is aiming for it to be cheaper than most GPS setups too, like $100 to $200, and you can run it off UMD or memory stick. Plus, it'll come with a carmount.
Overall, it's pretty exciting stuff that could really break open the GPS market. Beyond navigation, Sony is thinking about treasure hunts, friend locaters and other geo-coolness.
Sony is also cooking up a keyboard that would plug into the bottom, the A/V and headset jacks, and would fold up to protect the screen when you're not using it.

You could wait until Metal Gear Solid 4 comes out to get your gunmetal PlayStation 3. Or, you could make your own, spiting Kojima, Sony, all MGS4 fanboys and people who just like the color black. One modder did just that, repainting his case in dark weapon-happy silver (Tamiya Gunmetal TS-38 spray paint). And it actually looks pretty good.

When tabletop arcade manufacturer Retro-Tech makes a coffee table, it's gotta do more than hold books on Famous Chateaus of the 18th Century and What Things Look Like From the Sky. It has to hold that stuff and piss off your home theater.
So they start with a 19" touchscreen, add a Blu-ray drive with video out and a Microsoft keyboard and mouse to control is all. (And we're pretty sure a PC is stuck in there too.) To round it out, 6mm of "toughened glass" protects the top, though we're a bit confused if the touchscreen still works when covered. You can definitely see the arcade influence in the design, but we wish they'd gone a step or two further in incorporating the glossier elements of tabletop games. And would a splash of color hurt anyone? Price TBA.

Sony Europe has told Eurogamer that Buzz! Quiz TV will be out here on 4th July.
This is PS3 debut for Relentless Software and its game show series, and will feature customisable online quizzes, wireless buzzers and Jason Donovan.
Rose isn't in it any more, though, but under the obvious changes are more subtle and welcome additions such as a lot less waiting between questions and rounds, plus better-designed round types.
You'll be able to take on other families over the Internet, too, and it looks pretty.

KOEI, recognized worldwide as the premier brand of strategy and action games, announced today that the company has shipped a combined one and a half million units worldwide of Warriors Orochi across all video game platforms. The hit game is a crossover of two of the company's biggest franchises, Samurai Warriors and Samurai Warriors.
"This milestone is a significant testament to the global impact not only of this game, but also to the tremendous admiration that fans worldwide share for the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors characters," said Amos Ip, Senior Vice President at KOEI Corporation. "As we celebrate, I would like to recognize and express our thanks to the video game world's greatest fans for making this achievement possible."
Warriors Orochi is available for the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system, Windows-based PC, Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system.
KOEI also announced that it is bringing Warriors Orochi 2 to North America. The game will be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 2 in September 2008. Warriors Orochi 2 is not yet concept approved by Microsoft.
About Warriors Orochi
Without warning, the venomous Serpent King Orochi descended from the heavens. Using his unworldly powers to shatter time and space, Orochi kidnapped the strongest, wisest and most courageous warriors from Ancient China and Feudal Japan in a scheme to test his might against the heroes of these ages.
In Warriors Orochi the characters from both franchises must team-up to wage war against this new, yet powerful force. The game boasts an amazing roster of 79 playable characters, while four action-packed "crossover" storylines feature amazing team-ups and some long-awaited confrontations between characters from both series.
The game's new "Team Battle System" and "Weapon Fusion" push Tactical Action to a whole new level. For the first time in KOEI's Tactical Action games, players can create their own three-person tag team. At any given time, one warrior will be engaged in battle, while the other two are recuperating; restoring their Life Meters and Musou Gauges. Every character is categorized according to offensive ability, and with new fighting techniques, it's up to the player to find the most lethal combination of warriors. "Weapon Fusion" lets players combine the attributes from different weapons for more devastating results.
Warriors Orochi for PSP boasts the massive seamless battlefields of the console versions, and includes all 79 playable characters, plus 2-player co-op play via wireless (ad-hoc).
Warriors Orochi for Windows-based PC features enhanced graphics (for PCs meeting the recommended system requirements) and is available exclusively through digital download.

News/release from Brick
Rythm Engine started as a (yet another) DDR clone,but , with more
accurate steps.
After reaching the goal , i decided to create something MORE original,
and something that probably never ever created.
I turned the game into a rythm shooter
I turned all key-beat-instructions into wall-beat-instructions.
Added enemies/AI/powerups/some particle effects....and ..here we are
.....
README.TXT
===HOW TO INSTALL RE:RBM====
LOL..!
Just copy "RythmEngineRBM" folder in "GAME" folder ...and..have fun!
===GAMEPLAY===
The gameplay is quite simple.
First of all , you have to keep rythm bar's level high , for 2 reasons:
1)To increase score multiplier.
2)If rythm bar's level is too low , you start losing HP over the time.
To increase rythm bar's level , try to complete as many
as possible wall-beat instructions synchronised with background
music , by jumping off the (flashing)walls.
Well , its not that easy as you might be thinking.
There are different enemies(even boss-type enemies) that will
try to kick your a$$.
So , kill them all , pick up all available powerups,complete
as many as possible wall-beat-instructions , and...... SURVIVE!.
===DIFFICULTY TAGS===
Difficulty tags are displayed next to level names.
Tag [E] : easy
Tag [M] : medium
Tag [H] : hard
Tag [G] : Godlike
===CONTROLS===
Movement : UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT buttons OR analog
To fire Press & hold Cross("X") + L/R
To use bombs press Circle("O")
Beat tail(only works with default weapon-Parodius G1-):
Hold : L + R + x
===CREDITS===
Rythm Engine : Rythm Box Mod
Programming & art : brick
Contact mail(public) : ---read readme.txt---
Beta testing & some nice ideas:

BioShock is on its way to PlayStation 3 after all.
Although 2K's press office was unable to comment this afternoon, PSM and Electronic Gaming Monthly both have cover stories on the game in their next issues.
Not many details are being shared online, although EGM does point out that there are "some potential graphical improvements" and that it will be out for the "2008 holiday season".
BioShock came out on PC and Xbox 360 last summer and was one of our favourite games of the year, despite polarising opinion among gamers - and responsible for one of 2007's most memorable gaming moments, which brought the storyline to an impressive head.
For those who never experienced it, the premise was that you survived a plane crash in the ocean and found your way to a utopian underwater city called Rapture where things had gone seriously wrong.
Using a mixture of old-school projectile weaponry and genetic modifications, you had to help the people you met and deal with the iconic Big Daddies - monstrous, lumbering creatures encased in metal diving suits, who escorted twisted little girls around the city harvesting the substance that powered up your own genes, ADAM.
Its path to PS3 has been long and confusing, with designer Ken Levine stating just after the game's release that "there is no secret plan about the PS3 that we're keeping from people".
"There's no PS3 development going on that we're hiding," he added. That's what they all say.
2K Marin is currently working on a sequel, due out in late 2009, and while the announcement made no mention of formats, a job posting suggested it could happen. So, BioShock on PS3 this Christmas, BioShock 2 on PS3, 360 and PC next Christmas? Stranger things have happened.

The PSP is a "gateway drug" into the console world, according to SCEA senior marketing manager John Koller.
Speaking at a roundtable at the 6th annual Wedbush Morgan Securities Management Access Conference in New York City today, Koller told the audience that the PSP has changed the way people think about handheld gaming.
"In the past, it was a small screen experience. It was something that was very difficult to have from a social perspective," he said. "Those things have changed."
Sony has also seen a demographic shift since launching the PSP in 2005. Originally targeting 28-40 year-old business men in the subway on the way to work, the reality has been that PSP has attracted younger and multi-ethnic users who play together.
"It's become, from a gaming perspective, a lot different than I think we even envisioned it when we first launched it," said Koller.
"That's a very good thing. It's expansionary. For us, the PSP is a very high growth, high margin business and something that is a very good product for us."
Koller said that the company looks at the PSP as a kind of "gateway drug" into the console world, as it were, with consumers who have purchased the PSP as their first "console" during the past few years moving on to the PS3 as they go along the adoption curve.
"For us, it has been a really interesting experience. The PSP really parlays well into our broader hardware business."
Michael Pachter, the Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst who moderated the roundtable discussion, specifically addressed the perception that the PSP is a "terrible device that no one owns and is a disaster business."
"If you go look at sell through...and I have North America numbers...If you look at sell-through for PSP, at a much higher price point, it is about six months behind the adoption curve of the Game Boy Advance which averaged about USD 80 cheaper.
"That's not the DS, but the original Game Boy Advance - the Game Boy Advance that had no competition. So, people 'dis' the PSP, but the business is a pretty solid business," Pachter said.

Hi
I've updated Coverflow.
It saves the cover art images loaded from ID3 Tags to the covers folder for faster loading. So it needs a very long time (~2s for one mp3) to load at the first time, but then it is very fast (1/2 s for one mp3) . I have also removed known bugs.
LuaplayerHM by Homemister is included.
Installation:
Copy the folder Coverflow to PSP/GAME/
Be sure to have some mp3's in MUSIC/ directory

PS3 Guitar Hero players will be getting a free track taken from the God of War series, Sony has confirmed.
The PS3-exclusive track will be made available to download on June 5, Sony revealed to PlayStation Underground members (via Kotaku).
We guess this makes even on the free Halo track that Xbox 360 players got, albeit six months later. Still, it's free. You can't complain.

These new screens show just how simple it is to create your own obstacles and implement them in levels to create unique challenges.
Look at the shots in sequence and you'll see how the player combines a bunch of seemingly shapeless blocks with a piston contraption to make a crocodile with jaws that open and close.
Duplicating the creation, they attach them to the walls to create a chasm of snapping crocs - it's an old-school Mario-style challenge.
We can see Littlebigplanet eating up an insane number of hours in our lives.

Sony has updated PlayStation Network with a couple of PS3 demos, a couple of PSP demos and a bunch of packs for PSP navigation software Go!Explore.
Demo-wise, on PS3 we have Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Conspiracy, following its release on Xbox Live the other day, along with a demo of SEGA's sadly-execrable Iron Man adaptation.
PSP, however, gets two versions of an Everybody's Golf 2 demo - one for beginners, one for intermediate players - and an Ultimate Board Games demo.
That's along with Go!Explore packs for Benelux, DACH (?), France, Italy, Scandinavia, Spain & Portgual, UK & Ireland and "Western" - the latter presumably showing you how to walk across the desert while Clint Eastwood swigs water behind you. All cost GBP 14.99.
Also on the PS3 version of the Store, Sony points out, is a High Stakes Poker video-chat add-on, and a bunch of PlayStation Day promotional trailers (e.g. "Play is full throttle" and "Play has no limitations" along with Kaz Hirai's introduction).
And if you like reskinning your consoles, you can get a Pixeljunk Monsters Encore theme and wallpaper for PS3, or echochrome wallpaper for either PS3 or PSP.

Tanos has just released a GREAT Homebrew game for our loved PSP. Its called iPong, but dont expect to see just another classic pong...
This Spanish coder has just reinvented Pong, adding items, and very impressive neon graphics.
Turbo, hot ball or gravitational filed are just some examples of the items that you could use (just check the bars at the top of the screen). But there is more: you will be able to play with a friend, using only one PSP!
You will also find a mode called "Challenges". There are 4 of them, and you will be able to pass to the next only if you have completed the previous one.
This game is also skinnable...Is this the PERFECT pong?
Controls
One Player
- Digital Pad Up/Down: Move the bar.
- O: Gravitational filed.
- R + Pad: Turbo
- Start: Pause
Two Players:
Player 1:
- Digital Pad Up/Down: Move the bar.
- Digital Pad Right: Gravitational field
- L: Turbo
Player 2:
- O/X: Move the bar

Remember Quinta Essentia? Probably not, but you should.
For those empty brains there, Quinta Essentia is a homebrew RPG under development by Team Xeoka. The game's press release was announced some months ago here at DCEmu.
Just as a quick update, the team hasn't stopped working on the game. They're working on every aspect and detail, and getting it ready to release the best homebrew RPG for the PSP ever created. But, since the project is so huge, and the people working on it are busy people, it's slowing down. And we're asking for help.
We need another member in our team. We are looking for an experienced pixel artist to join the development team, that could aid in the design and creation of interfaces.
Minimum Requirements:
* Self motivated with a good attitude and able work with others.
* Ability to effectively persuade, explain and negotiate.
Responsibilities:
* Management of time and workload to meet flexible deadlines.
* Remain focused and motivated throughout all tasks.
* Development of interfaces that are entertaining, intuitive and technically feasible.
So, if you think you have what it takes to be in our team, be sure to contact us and show us your skills. You can send an e-mail to the address below:

We know the Metal Gear Solid series is famous for its long cut-scenes, but this tops everything! Metal Gear Solid 4, the latest instalment in Hideo Kojima's seminal stealth series, has cut-scenes (note the plural) that approach the 90 minutes mark.
troubled with time keeping, that's the length of a feature film.
The news comes from PSW magazine, who's been and finished MGS4, and then promptly whispered in our ears about the shocking 90-minute cut-scenes. The latest issue hits newsstands today, by the way.
We were expecting long story sequences (MGS2 approached the 45 minute mark in one) but an hour and a half of cinematics was unexpected.
The good news is that you can now skip or pause the scenes. Hands up though, how many of you are actually going to sit through the full 90 minutes?
"MGS4's story is massive. The videogame equivalent of all three Godfather movies on one disc," says the mag.
"As you'd expect, you'll spend a lot of time watching cut-scenes, so if you found previous games' story exposition laborious, then you'd better find yourself a nice cushion and plenty of teabags in readiness for MGS4's.
"They can be skipped, but you'll be missing out on some of the finely crafted examples of FMV footage anywhere in gaming," the article boldly proclaims.
Issue 108 of PSW is on sale now.

While out on news patrol earlier we completely missed an enormously conspicuous press release lying unconvincingly across some flattened grass trying to fit a giant spinning ration box into its overflowing utility belt: it said that Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa will be at HMV's Oxford Street, London store on 2nd June.
They will of course be there to celebrate the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots later in June - 12th June, to be precise - and in the absence of boxed copies of the game will be signing HMV-exclusive game sleeves.
The duo will be there at 12 noon, but the organisers note that "access to meet Mr. Kojima and Mr. Shinkawa will be strictly limited", so "300 sleeves will be available from the store on the day of the event from 9.00am", and only people with sleeves will be allowed to queue. You can have a sleeve if you pre-order the game at HMV, which involves a GBP 5 deposit.
Still, we imagine 300 or so of the series' loyal fans will be ready to spend that much and do that much standing around waiting. If we were feeling uncharitable, we might point out that they spend far more time sitting around doing nothing while playing the Metal Gear Solid games. But we're not uncharitable, as you know.
As mentioned, Metal Gear Solid 4 is due out on 12th June, and is exclusive to PS3. We've already played it and finished it, and you can read our post-completion hands-on preview elsewhere on the site. Sadly though, we're tightly bound by an NDA so you will have to wait until closer to release to read our verdict. Look out for it.

Magixien let me know earlier of news surrounding the upcoming Custom Firmware for the PSP:
The Custom SIGN 3.95 GEN is desired by all, but some problems are delaying his departure. Click for more information.
We will start with the good news because it must always be positive. The Custom firmware 3.95 GEN is over 99% in its PSP Slim & Lite version. Today, it works and can launch the VSHMenu, IRShell (with a few bugs due to the fact that IRShell is hardcoded for 3.80), PSPFiler 5.1, and so on. Please note that Popsloader is now compatible.
The bad news arrives and is intended to possessor PSP standard or "fat". To this day, if the Custom Firmware runs on the PSP and let launch UMD and ISO/CSO additional functions are not all operational. Thus, the VSHMenu, popsloader desperately freeze on our good old first-generation of PSP.
The reasons are a little obscure but the lack of memory is undoubtedly the primary factor of instability. Our shdow's dev continues its research in this area but it seems to be really difficult.
We therefore expect to happen to solve the problems of the "Fat" before the launch but if it were to lead to an impasse, the release of the current version will launch anyway.

NeoGAF poster Ephemeris snapped the photo above showing that Metal Gear Solid 4 auteur Hideo Kojima will be at the Virgin MegaStore in Times Square NYC on June 11, signing copies of the game for a midnight launch. We contacted the Virgin MegaStore's games department this morning just to confirm. The conversation went like this:
"Hi, I just wanted to confirm Hideo Kojima would be signing copies of Metal Gear Solid 4 at the store on June 11?"
"Who?" The clerk sounded half-asleep.
"Hi-de-o Ko-ji-ma, Metal Gear Solid 4, in store June 11?"
"Um, yeah, we're doin' that. Sure."
We're just curious to see if Kojima does a mega-signing in Japan for the opening there and then bends time backwards (by crossing the date line) to get to New York. That would be hardcore.

RPG fans decrying the lack of their favorite genre might have a classic title coming soon to their PS3. In today's ESRB report of upcoming titles, Suikoden was listed for the PS3 and PSP. This means that the title should be available across the PSN, and should feature remote play capability to take the adventure on Sony's handheld. While no release date was given, the re-release of the title was rated E for Everyone.
In case you're not familiar with Suikoden, you control the son of a general destined to seek out 108 warriors to defeat a corrupt government and bring peace to the land. Not only did the game feature duels and large turn based battles, but also packed a large amount of depth into its magic and combat system. While there weren't any other classic titles announced within the report, the impending release of Suikoden could light the way for other classic PSone titles to land on the PSN.

News/release from MDave:
Hi there, I have finally released a little project I've been working on for a while, and it should interest those that like the old Goldeneye and Turok on the N64
I know that the psp homebrew scene has slowed down a lot this year, hopefully this won't be the 'swan song' of homebrew games for the PSP, considering how much success its getting commercially these days. I suspect it has something to do with the iPhone, but that its interface while intuitive, lacks the basics like tactile buttons which makes your traditional games pretty much unplayable Anyway, back to my game :P
It's a Quake total conversion made from scratch and designed for the PSP, and includes my own heavily tweaked Quake engine which happens to be fully backwards compatible with Quake 1 and its mods.
The download and more information is on this site:
http://bladebattles.com/kurok/index.html
Hope you enjoy!
I seriously suggest playing multiplayer with friends in a map that includes remote mines, its a blast

Minerva has released a new version of his Nand Manager for the PSP
via pspgen
The program goes to flash your PSP. This is never benign and can make your PSP partially or completely inutiisable. NEVER RESTORE A NAND ABROAD AT YOUR PSP. This makes your PSP permanently unusable even with a pandora Kit as the ID Storage of a PSP is unique and can not be used on another.
PSPgen and (or) author (s) from this program will not be held responsible when problems with your PSP.
Note: Your battery must be charged at least 70%
Reminders:
Nandmanager used to dump or restore NAND (FLASH0 + FLASH1 + FLASH2 + FLASH3 + + iDStorage IPL) on your PSP, as allowed Despertar Del Cementario, but it has some functions in addition that are very interesting: on the one hand, it is not necessary to have a battery Pandora to dump its NAND and on the other hand, it may be several NANDs, renowned for his way and install the one you want (a practice to change firmware in a few minutes)
What's New in this version?
Adding to magic / seed unique to each PSP (more or less an "identity card") which helps differentiate dumps several PSP.

What this? Best Buy finally released the Insignia NS-BRDVD blu-ray player for an affordable $349.99. The design, like other in-house Insgnia-branded products, is questionable, but if you were looking into the PS3 as a player, this could be a $50 cheaper option if games aren't your thing. The unit outputs at 1080P, decodes Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD, and decodes 2-channel Dolby TrueHD. Outputs include stereo audio, composite video, component video, optical Toslink, digital coax, and HDMI. No word on image quality just yet, but based on previous Insignia products, we're not holding our breath.

anywho, basically i'm writing pool for the psp, i felt that i wanted to do it, and see if i could do all the calculations myself....and i did=-), anyways most of the hard work is finally done=-), now i simple need a gfx artist, and a few more lines of code for taking into account special rules and crap, and i should be done=-)
anyways some pics while you wait(i know their is no pool table i just have to change the dimension's to take into account the pool table's size, watever it may be at the end):
video: http://elitehax.com/psp/PSPBillards.wmv <-- made by HaroldBawls
notes:
the collision between the actual ball, and the, wat i dub "overlap", ball is just a tiny bit off, as you'll see in the video and well be fixed by the time of the release, also the video has brought a new problem to my attention, which you'll see when HaroldBawls make's his first shot, somehow the ball.....changes color¿, and i'm uncertain of how it attained that ability, but it well be fixed by the release i promise
anyways i'll be back tommorow(pop in later tonight...maybe), hope ppl well help me otherwise, you'll have to settle with my own gfx's when the game is done

Quote:
What's it?
With this plugin you can launch an eboot when you press on one of the XMB icons.
Notes:
-If your Eboot.pbp is in fw 1.50 mode (with kxploit!) you have to insert in the config file the path o the Eboot.pbp contained in % folder (folder with % character in its name!).
-Location Free Player icon can be replaced ONLY in PSP that did not install the 1.50 addon!

-Skype icon can be replaced ONLY in PSP Slim & Lite.
-VSHMenù function can be replaced ONLY if you have the M33 VSHMenù enabled in Recovery Menù.

Im glad Brakken posted this i hadnt a clue what a pup extractor was :P
via tehskeen
NDT has released his PS3 PUP Extractor v1.00. According to NDT, the program extracts "Sony Update PUP file in a created pupname.EXT dir, and creates a logfile with useful information such as calculated SHA1 and Sony hashes." PUP files are the Playstation 3 Update files which update your console to a new version. Being able to extract these files (which are compressed) can better lead to understanding the inner workings of the Sony Playstation 3.

The [Home] beta is now at v0.8.6.
The new space is called the Media and Events Space and it seems to be a harness for all PLAYSTATION related events.
The update also came with a new survey asking questions such as your thoughts on the new space, it's presentation area, your opinion on the photos and video in the gallery, and what not. They want to know if you would like to see more events similar to PlayStation Day, what kind of content you want to see in the Media & Events Space to make your next visit more compelling, etc.

Mauro has announced a new project to bring a Low Level PSP Emulator for the PC, heres the very interesting details:
Hi all!
I'm currently working on a PSP Emulator for PC. After having seen the great progress of noxa and soywiz with their emus I decided I wanted to do it slightly different and try to keep the Emulation as Low Level as possible.
Here in my Dev-Blog you can check out the code via a svn mirror or you can browse it Here.
It's in early stages and I've written the MIPS Core + FPU and I'm currently writing the VFPU instructions.
Now to my main question: This is still far away but, as for the boot-process of the PSP with the decrypting of the IPL through the KIRK SecChip and so on. Is there a way to get the Bootstrap commands so I could later on implement them in the emulator or will I have to do this differently?
Hope you guys can help me out

hlide a member of DCEmu and a coder at PS2Dev and one of the icons of PSP Development posted this exciting bit of info:
I'm also planning to make a PSP emulator for PC and maybe Pandora.
I rewrote from scratch a R3000 dynarec (c++) for PSP and ARM (zodttd uses my very old recompiler/generator I rewrote for his psx4gp2x/psx4iphone). Zodttd were supposed to work with me to bring yapse4all in life but he seems to be very busy with all the other ports he makes.
It wouldn't be difficult to make a PSP dynarec for PC as well : I just need to write the appropriate generator.
I intend to reuse my new dynarec and to extend it to a PSP dynarec (CPU/FPU/VFPU) to make a PSP emulator. But it must be fast and don't need to deal with low emulation of hardware unlike PSX.
I think HLE is the best strategy to emulate PSP because it would be faster and hardware emulation is beyond question due to the lack of documentation about hardware.
But HLE is probably hell to build since we need to reverse any kernel modules to emulate functions accurately.
Lets hope this comes to reality PSP emu for Pandora now thats a mindblower (although it will most likely be more of a tech demo)

PSPZorba pmed me this on the forum:
Hi wraggster,
I've just relased a new version of PSPlorer.
PSPlorer is a file explorer with some additional functions.
The new functionalities:
- file and directory transfert from PSP to PSP via wifi (using an access point), this new mode works over internet. If you are behind a router you will have to use port forwardinf (the port used by PSPlorer is configurable in the config file PSPlorer.txt which is generated at the first run)
- file extraction from eboots
- multi-languages, you can add your own language. To do this just create a text file with the translations (corresponding line by line with english.txt), modify the config file (psplorer.txt) put the name of your file at the tag [langiageFileName] (don't forget the space between the tag and the file name).
- configuration of colors, wifi port etc by a config file => PSPlorer.txt
The main functionalities:
- file exploration on the memory-stick, flash0, flash1 and umd
- copy, delete, move, rename of files and directories
- dump and securised flash of the NAND. WARNING, even if the flash has been tested on several PSP, the flash of the nandBackup is still a risky thing. I won't accept any responsabilities in case you brick your PSP.
- UMD backup in ISO and CSO format
- USB connexion
- creation of new files and new directories
- file hexedit
- file and directory transfert from PSP to PSP via ADHOC-Game sharing mode OR wifi (via an access point), this new mode works over internet. If you are behind a router you will have to use port forwarding (the port used by PSPlorer is configurable in the config file PSPlorer.txt which is generated at the first run)
- file conversion from iso to cso
- file and directory properties change ( access right, creation/update/access dates)
- file extraction from eboots
To install it just uncompress the archive on your MS

Reader Josh was doing a spot of shopping in his local Meijer the other day and came across a couple of price stickers - for the long-awaited PlayStation Network pre-paid card - sitting in the aisle of the gaming section. No cards, just the stickers. The one pictured is for a $20 card, while Josh says there was also a sticker up for a $50 card as well. Sony are still quiet on a precise release date for these, but with this information heading out to retailers they hopefully won't be too far away.

News/release from gigaherz
I'm (ab)using the pcsx2.net's news system to let everyone know I (finally) got my lazy ass to make some improvements in my sound plugin.
The result is spu2ghz 1.8, which you can find in the official thread at ngemu forums.
I will keep working on the SPDIF decoding, and hopefully someday I will manage to get working AC3/DTS playback.

The application to turn just about any decent PS2 Memcard into a way to play homebrew on any unmodified PS2 takes a new turn with a new release, heres the details:
Free MC Boot is an 'exploit' based off of Datel's Max Memory 64MB card. This allows a user to install it on official 8MB Sony MC's as well as 3rd party cards. (with the exception of those needing a boot disc to be recognized or cloned Chinese cards)
1.2c
As soon as v1.2c is properly installed (see usage.txt for 1.2c upgrade) :
- Uninstall is possible.
- Upgrade without need to format for future version (It preserves saves).
1.2b BETA
- Small bug fixed that prevented NTSC U users from installing.
1.2 BETA
-Process done entirely on the PS2 console rather than patching of MC images done on the computer.
-C/DVD fix added by ffgriever
-Changed boot file name and locations:

Today was a pretty cool day, I got my PSP! I've been thinking about it ever since the announcement of the Red GoW bundle, and today I scored big. That's right, Wal-Mart broke the street date!
Not only does Kratos look angry as usual, he's the guardian of the battery. Red wouldn't have been my initial color choice, but it's more crimson than red, so that's good by me. Now to get my grubby hands on some other PSP goodness. Next on the hit list- Loco Roco, Patapon, and Ratchet and Clank.

Earlier this month Sony Computer Entertainment Europe chief David Reeves happily announced that over five million units of PS3 hardware have been sold across Europe, allowing the console to surge past Microsoft's Xbox 360 despite the 360's 16-month head start in the region. In an interview with Wired, however, Microsoft Game Studios' Shane Kim seemed to dispute those numbers.
Moreover, when GameDaily BIZ contacted Microsoft, a spokesperson told us that Xbox 360, not PS3, is in the lead: "In Europe, our hardware sales have doubled in the wake of GTA IV, and we remain the number one next-generation console in Europe. We do not disclose our internal sales data, but our figures show we enjoy a comfortable lead against PlayStation 3 in the region. We lead not only in console sales but also in software sales: overall European performance is excellent with a 7.0 game attach rate that beats the competition (3.8 PS3, 3.5 Wii), and we enjoy 39% of the market in terms of life-to-date revenue. Gamers prefer games on Xbox 360 – just look at GTA IV, where the Xbox 360 version outsold the PS3 version by 20%."
So Microsoft continues to claim a "comfortable lead" and yet when we reached out to Sony, the company maintained that the PS3 was winning. Perhaps what it really comes down to is the definition of Europe?
Here's what a Sony rep told us, "The statement was based on the fact that cumulative sales of PS3 in Europe since its launch now exceed the cumulative sales of Xbox 360 in Europe since their launch, despite Xbox 360 having had a 16 month lead on PS3. Europe means the whole of Western Europe, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Russia. SCEE sources its market data from official sources such as ChartTrack and Gfk, from their retailers and from a variety of additional sources. SCEE has been using the same methodology for the last 10 years or so."
We continue to press both companies and we'll let you know if we ever get a real answer that straightens this mess out.

Nataku92 has released a new version of his Counterstrike Game for the PSP:
v1.55 is done (about time huh)! I've added 3.xx firmware support (so it should work on slims as well) and redid a lot of the networking code to make online gameplay smoother than before. I've also worked on the server/master server system (CSPSPServer is now v1.0), so the server list should work properly now. Other changes:
__________
|-UPDATES- |
|__________|
3.xx firmware support (haven't tested on slim, but it should work)
Fixed server list (hopefully)
Fixed bug where only part of the server list is downloaded.
Redid a lot of the networking and added client-side prediction to make online play smoother and less buggy
Automatic map downloads when connection to servers
Made the scoreboard only show the top 4 players in each team
Music reimplemented (but causes some lag)
Chat now shows if the person is dead/spectating
Added more sounds (walk, ricochet, pickup, ammo, hit, knife hit, die, ct win, t win, round draw)
New update system

Unconfirmed! Apparently, Capcom is releasing Street Fighter IV this winter on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Capcom accidentally announced this on a press site, states French site Jeuxvideo. Of course this multi-plat release would fall in line with how Capcom releases everything (PS3, Xbox 360 and PC). However, Jeuxvideo didn't provide a link to where this tidbit was discovered, so stay tuned.

Blu-ray players will outsell standard-def DVD players by this August, according to several high-end electronics retailers, as reported by Video Business.
The research firm NPD said this month that sales of standalone Blu-ray players (not including Play Station 3 consoles) fell 40 percent from January to February in the U.S. Blu-ray sales increased two percent from February to March.
The sales numbers were disappointing because Toshiba announced in February that it was pulling the plug on Blu-ray's high-def disc rival, HD DVD.
But the retail executives say Blu-ray player sales have been slowed by a lack of supplies, and not a lack of interest from consumers. Ultimate Electronics, Crutchfield and Bjorn's all say demand for Blu-ray players has exceeded demand for the standard-def DVD player since the format war ended.
The executives say Blu-ray makers such as Sony, Panasonic and Samsung will soon launch new players, leading to more supply at retail. Additionally, the new set-tops will likely allow stores to lower prices on current Blu-ray models, which also could trigger more sales.
Rick Souder, executive vice president of merchandise for Crutchfield, tells Video Business that Blu-ray supplies have been low because companies were surprised by the sudden end to the format war.
“People have been waiting weeks for Sony players, but it should get better later in the summer,” said Rick Souder, executive VP of merchandise at Crutchfield. “In August, it will be the first time that Blu-ray overtakes (standard DVD) sales for us on a unit basis.”
Souder said Blu-ray revenue has already exceeded revenue from the sales of standard-def DVD players.
Mat Duda, merchandising director for Ultimate Electronics, told Video Business that more retailers will use Blu-ray as a vehicle to educate consumers on the benefits of High-Definition.
“There should be a healthy supply (of Blu-ray players) by August and (manufacturers) should be caught up in production,” said Duda. “You’ll see Blu-ray catching up with standard DVD.”

Ahh more homebrew treats on this rather long bank holiday monday:
this news via psphacks
Sangheili has released an updated version of PSP Pileup. You know, the stacker-like homebrew game we spoke of earlier.
This time ’round Sangheili has introduced a new scoring system and mini-games section. The two coexist with one another — unlock the mini games by accumulating points over time. Although, as far as mini games go, PSP Pileup 0.3 leaves us with only Pong, for now…
PSP Pileup 0.3 changes:
got rid of some bugs, a few too many to list here
added a scoring system
added a minigames section; pong doesn’t have levels

According to Eurogamer, Metal Gear heads Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa will be in London next week to scribble signatures across their latest work, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. Kojima and co. will be at the HMV Oxford Street, London store as of noon, though fans are encouraged to prepare their stampede at 9AM. With the meeting occurring on June 2nd, there won't be any copies of the game available, though HMV will provide 300 game sleeves to those who drop five pounds on a pre-order. If you want to show Kojima how much you care, ask him to draw a little heart on your sleeve.
Not in London? Catch the man in New York on midnight, June 11th. He'll look marvelous in your collection.

With the latest in Codemasters' Race Driver series, GRID, expected to roll up to the starting line next week, the company has announced that the demo for the upcoming, not to mention decidedly un-boring racer has been downloaded over a million times over Xbox Live, PSN, and the PC.
The demo, which was released a couple weeks back, offers a look at what players can expect when Race Driver: Grid races to European retail shelves on May 30. Following this, North American players will be able to slip behind the wheel on June 3, while a more touchable version for the Nintendo DS is expected around the same time as well.

Newly released today:
Harry Gregson-Williams truly established himself among the top soundtrack composers. Among the illustrious circle of composers who dominant Hollywood's soundtrack business (just to name a few: Hans Zimmer (Gregson-Williams long-term mentor), John Williams, James Horner or Howard Shore), it is Gregson-Williams who is the master of mixing hard electronic tunes with classical and choral elements.
With his highly acclaimed soundtracks for Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Gregson-Williams' soundtracks are now an essential part of the MGS franchise just as Solid Snake is.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will be the game highlight of this summer - and for sure the soundtrack will contribute a lot to make the game a hunting third-generation gaming experience.
Harry Gregson-Williams' Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is in stock today, shipping for US$ 28.90 only.
