The new screen is INSANELY nice, and the system feels so much better.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #7 on:** October 15, 2008, 04:54:41 PM »

Is it really that noticeable over the PSP-2000?

Yup, it looks and feels like an improved unit. The screen is a bit bigger I think too, on top of looking jawesome.

Eh, I bought a PSP-2000 in March. I'm not buying another one.

It's about time I bought a 3000 and left my 1000 to homebrew only. It's too much of a pain to keep up with CFW and play retail games on the same system.

Oh, sorry. I remembered reading on GAF that the new motherboards were entirely hack-proof a while back.

Does this have the same problem as the new Game Boy Advance and the DS Lite, where the colors are just WAY the hell too saturated? (See the greens in Mario Kart, etc). I hear that in the XMB there's a setting you can change for "color space," what's that do?

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #28 on:** October 15, 2008, 10:46:11 PM »

Will buy one when it gets hacked/if Dissidia is good, whichever comes first.

otherwise, gotta have my POPS.

Dunno but on most TVs, expanded color space just makes the picture look worse.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #31 on:** October 15, 2008, 11:32:43 PM »

Has anyone tried playing it through a normal TV through composite cables? Is it scaled up or still windowed?

Those cables better be compatible with the ones for the PSP-2K >:/

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #36 on:** October 16, 2008, 01:07:59 AM »

Your loss.

The new adapter is roughly 2/3rds as big as the old one, a bit lighter, and while the cable that goes to the outlet is the same size, the cable running to the PSP is thinner and seems to have more flexibility, probably for plugged in play.

cool breeze · « **Reply #37 on:** October 16, 2008, 01:08:05 AM »

I can live without CFW on my PSP for a while. It's one of the perks to buying/importing all my psp games on umd...maybe the only perk there is. Plus, my PSP 2000 (or 1000) aren't going anywhere. There are some games I probably won't be able to play without CFW like Outrun 2, which is borderline unplayable for me now on UMD without 333.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #38 on:** October 16, 2008, 01:10:07 AM »

I've given up on the hacked version. While roms are neat I didnt play them as much as I thought I would, and the games load fast enough for me not to care.

I'm still playing God of War on my memory stick with GOW in the UMD drive. Never bothered to check if the MS loaded faster than the UMD, I just assumed it did.

I don't know what games you play, but CFW cuts down load time a lot. Midnight Club 3 is awesome on the PSP, it's just that the loads times were unbearable until I ripped the umd and put it on my memory stick.

GoW on PSP hardly has any loading with the UMD. I'm probably gonna replay it on the 3000.

I got all excited about getting my GOW PSP hacked but so far, GOW is still the only game on my MS and it came with the PSP. lol

Basically, I just used my PSP for EB browsing when I'm lying in bed. I probably don't need an updated screen for that.
