Thinking about getting a PSP, but I've got a question or two...

[T234]

Get an 8 gig stick!

They're really expensive, though. I figure getting a 4 GB Sandisk would be more than enough for me...

Anyone?

Er, umm

EXPENSIVE

Yeah, I didn't want to drop $85 on one. I ended up getting a 4GB Sandisk Pro Duo for $40 at Circuit City. I don't plan on ripping PSP games to the stick, so it should do me just fine.

why are you guys suggesting 8GB sticks? that is overkill, and i doubt mantra is planning on hacking his PSP

[T234]

As somebody who likes to carry around most of his PSP library, the 8 GB is what I need.

I wouldn't mind hacking it for roms, but not for pirating PSP games.

memory stick = drastically sorter load times for PSP games.

Ah, man, I want Brave Story.  When I finally decided to buy it, it was sold out.

And Himumu can't find Disgaea PSP anywhere in Texas.

Heh, I have the same problem with Brave Story... I guess I'll order off of half.com...

Memory stick loading and 333mhz speed = faster load times and smoother framerates.  It's worth hacking the system for that alone.

You don't have to download a single ISO.  You can easily set your PSP to ISO mode, copy the game ISO to your hard drive, and then move the now-ripped game onto your memory stick.  I think there are some apps that can shrink ISO sizes down, too.  Not sure which one is the best.

why the fuck are psp games so hard to find in stores

Who cares, you pirate them anyway. 

ANIME INDUSTRY: DEAD.

NEXT UP ON HIMURO'S HIT LIST: PORTABLE GAMING.   :'(

[Himu]

I don't even have a hacked psp.

[Himu]

I fucking love the PSP. I was playing my copy of FFT on the plane.

I'd never pirate PSP games but if I were to hack it, it would mostly be to put PSP games I already own onto the memory stick.  It'd save space (not having to carry UMDs around), battery (since the UMD drive wouldn't be in use), and time (since games would load faster).

And if TVC is gonna hack distant's PSP, he should definitely get an 8 gig stick.  Not like those sticks take up much space!

I already bought the 4 GB stick. I needed something so I could play the fucking games already (Portable Ops won't start unless you have a memory stick!), and I couldn't find an 8 GB stick anywhere.

I downloaded the Space Invaders Extreme and Umihara Kawase demos, which are awesome!
