I have been using mine solidly since I got it on Thursday (have watched 2 episodes of Inital D and incredibles on it)

I it.

I don't have any dead pixels but I have a little black mark on the screen that i think will come off with some proper cleaning solution. Like wombling said the value pack really isn't all that good but i am still using its contents. Memory card could have been bigger but like most I have already bought a 512mb card which is more than adequate for now.

RR is getting a hammering but thats only as its the only game i currently own although Minna no Golf and Lumines are on their way to me from P-A

How about these for a sturdy case. I like the one with the speakers built in.

The exact list of games I own

They are amazing. Best console launch lineup in years, imho. If AC:FF and Metal Gear Acid were playable for the Westerners, I would say best launch lineup possibly ever!

I would have to agree there. I've not touched any of my other consoles since receiving my PSP (currently addicted to golf). Looking to purchase a wireless network card so I can take my putting skills online.

I keep meaning to try this, and forgetting >_<
Will have a pop tonight.

You have to try online...its incredible.

Best way though it to set up a private arena which is passworded, that way you only get people from the UK and have less problems with connections.

AFAIK it's a test update. I've been reading up on various sites and so guy buggered his PSP by forcing it through.

I'll be waiting for the official release, it looks really good though.

I wonder how long we'll have to wait.

Do you think we will be able to update via the network update, or will we have to download the file to our memory sticks first?

I think you can get it there mate, but It's only beta and it might feck up your PSP apparently. Use at own risk.

lol psp turns into DS! hahaha

[MonkeyWrench]

It's not a proper update! That video shows them trying to get the game to work, not installing the update, and as it's not a real update there's no game there to play.

You can find plenty of techy info here, including how a guy screwed his PSP by forcing the update:
