Oli1983uk Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I am un sure on what region and when to get one! I am off the USA in march next year so was thinking about hanging on till then. Also I was thinking about getting a Jap PSP as then I can still play movies on there and more of chance of getting one with a low firmware! on ebay jap psp's are still selling for £180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domstercool Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 http://nagoya.cool.ne.jp/o_mega/product/e2.html Mizuguchi's new PSP game ^_^ It's called Every, Extend, Extra, and I bet it's just as addictive as Lumines/Meteos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deano Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Got burnout legends today traded spiderman 2 got 20 quid from gamestation. Overall pretty good a few graphic glitches but fun. I also have toca which is very good ridge racer which is excellent lumines which is fun but not as good as tetris darkstalkers which has good graphics but poor controls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shmotz Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I would have got my PSP today if DHL didn't stand for Dick Heads Limited. You know what sucks? It went from Hong Kong to the UK in around 36 hours. Its been sat in the East Midlands/Manchester since Saturday. Grragh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowser57 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I'm going to the USA in late October and am planning on getting a PSP while there. Would anyone advise against it? If so, why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haden Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Because sony sucks muhhahah. Turns off fanboy mode switches on PSP. The only reason not to get one in the US is because of UMD movies. However make sure you don't get one on the last day as if your screen is horribly riddled with dead pixels you will have no time to complain/seek a replacement. Mine is from the US and I have had no problems at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is from the US and I have had no problems at all. The UMD movies is one of my reasons for picking a US one, in that I can get films/TV shows before they come out here or just cheaper than they are here. Good call on the pixels, if I do get one I'll get one early on in the trip, and give it a good testing. On the subject of charging it up, how do you go about that if you get a US version?

Meik Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I'm going to the USA in late October and am planning on getting a PSP while there. Would anyone advise against it? If so, why? Other than the region-encoding on UMD movies, there is no reason why you shouldn't buy one in the US. You may even luck out and be able to find an original 1.50 PSP, or you can ask about such a thing in the store. I know that you know why version 1.50 is awesome. Anyway, this link shows you how to find out what version you're buying before you actually purchase it. Edit: You can charge US PSPs up over here using any standard PS2 power adapter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyletherobot Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 i have a US PSP but i want to be able to play UK UMD's on it (mainly a bear's tail) but what i was thinking of doing is buying a PSP from morrisons, and swapping my US one for the UK one and then returning the US one for some stupid reason, has to work as morrisons is populated with 40 year old women who are probably participating in community service for minor drug offences and hence will have no idea about anything technical.

Android18a Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I'd recommend Burnout Legends to all PSP owners. It's incredibly fun. Turn the teeny-boy music off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
