Tenchu 4 confirmed for the PSP
According to this Famitsu scan, Tenchu 4 will be coming to the PSP afterall. Rumors abound last month about a possible port of Tenchu: Shadow Assassins (the official title in the US) proved to be true — the game will be released in Japan on February 12th of next year for 5,040 yen. Ubisoft’s US press release for the game issued back in September indicated the game will be exclusive to the Wii, so no one knows yet whether we’ll get the port here in the States.

Want to play LocoRoco 2? Sure, us too, but you’ll have to wait — oh, hold on, what’s this? You can play an official LocoRoco 2 flash game right now?

Apple VP says PSP is the ‘past’
The iPhone is the “future of gameplay.” Well, that is, if you believe Apple’s VP of iPod marketing, Greg Joswiak. In an interview with T3, he says that the iPhone and iPod Touch offer “the future of gameplay … whereas a lot of these devices [DS and PSP] are more in the past.”
So, why is the iPhone the future? Maybe it’s because it’s all about a touch screen … but, isn’t that what the Nintendo DS does so incredibly well? Maybe it’s because of the graphics hardware? We don’t think so (see image, above).
According to Joswiak, the reason why iPhone and iPod will become the future of games is “the electronic distribution of the apps.” He argues that delivering games directly to the consumer is a win-win for game developers and consumers. Buyers can get games instantly and for cheap, while developers no longer have to worry about licensing and sales targets.
What Does an Obama Presidency Mean for Videogames?
A look at how this election may have reshaped Barack Obama’s views on games.
In a monumental win over John McCain tonight, Barack Obama was just elected the 44th President of the United States of America. And after some the of the excitement of this historic election (regardless of one’s political bias, it’s an incredible step forward for the nation) subsides, one of the questions on some gamers’ minds is whether this election will have any impact on their favorite hobby.

Read .txt files in PSP without any 3rd Party Software…!
First you need a .txt file to get started. Choose a short one for practice.
It is very important that the file name is short. You will have to type it in, so it will better be short. Rename text files to lower cap names without spaces and special characters - like house.txt. Don’t use .doc or .rtf files, the PSP cannot display them (by this method) ! Convert them to plain text.
Ok, now connect the PSP with the USB cable to your PC/notebook and open the Windows file explorer (Win+E). On your PSP open the menu. Open "Settings" -> "USB Connection". Now a new drive letter should appear on your Windows file explorer.
Draw the .txt file to the drive letter of your PSP (e.g. the memory card). That’s it for the technical part. I hear some people yelling at their diplays now "What!? That’s it?? Are you kidding?!". Wait for it… we’re doing this step-by-step.
New PSP-3000 hits the street
 Via : Engadget |
We know they’re hitting the streets, and we’ve already seen some unboxing pics and a nasty gutting, but we felt we needed to give Sony’s newPSP-3000 the proper treatment. As you can tell by the photos, there’s not much new here, though as you should know, the guts are where it’s all going down (new screen, built-in microphone). Still it never hurts to take a close look at a shiny new toy… so enjoy yourselves and in the full post. |
Play games on ur PSP with DualShock 3 Controller
 |
With only one analog nub, the PSP can’t seem to nail down a comfortable first or third-person shooter control scheme on its own, but a new tech called "PSP Plus" will allow users to pair the handheld with the PlayStation 3’s more genre-capable SIXAXIS or DualShock 3 controllers.
Sony announced PSP Plus at the Tokyo Game Show today but didn’t provide much info about how it works, so we’re not sure if it’s the same technology that was patented last year. We do know there’s a pretty outrageous catch: you’ll need to connect your PSP to your PS3 to use the controller. With only one game supported (Resistance Retribution), we prefer just about any homemade hack to this solution, and if you’re at home with your PS3, why not play Resistance 2 instead? It’s what Kratos would do. Via : Engadget |
