Thanks to the hard work from the guys at PROCFW there is now another option play our favorite PSP games online.
Now you may be thinking “we already can play PSP online Infrastructure mode, Xlink Kai and Adhc party” and you're right as there are already a few different ways to play online but this is why Prometheus is still a good option. As we all know there really aren’t a whole lot of games on the PSP that allow for infrastructure play. There are around ten or so reasonable games that support it despite the length of the life span of the PSP so that just about kills the infrastructure option right off the get go.
Xlink Kai allows for Adhoc play online but requires special compatible network adapters and requires that you be near your PC to play your games which is a similar problem that you face with the Sony Adoc Party service. With this you need to have your PSP near your PS3 to play online. So that's where Prometheus comes in its free, it allows you to play wherever and whenever and it works with your CFW enabled PSP, what else could you ask for? Now all of that said you should know going in that this only works with second gen PSP’s and newer (aka Slim PSP’s).
This could be a very good thing for all of you SOCOM fans because well its shutting down. That’s right the servers for SOCOM on the PSP and PS2 are shutting down forever leaving you to play your games in single player or Adhoc only making Prometheus a pretty good idea if you like playing online. Have a look below at what everyone is playing online right now.
