Yup, me too, anyone with a standard pack in the UK who wants to get rid of one, shoot me a PM.

Incase anyone's wondering about EB's policy on dead pixels, I brought my PSP in to be exchanged (it's within 14 days of purchase). Although they were out of them, I got put on a list which the guy said was "expected to fill very fast in the coming weeks" and I'll be getting my new one in a few weeks.

Return Policy: Probably Screwed

Dead Pixel: Sony warranty

Voltage Issues? Not that I know of

Region Issues: Need Japan Movies (But games are ok)

The UMD movies won't work if you buy them in the US.

If you get it from elsewhere besides a retail store, your best bet will probably be Sony for repair issues. The charger is different, but I read and adaptor works fine and the PSP can take different voltages.

I wouldn't do it unless it was your only way to get a PSP easily. If you have a retail store near you that has it, it'd be better to go with that I think.

....crap....screwed on return policy?.....can't I just pop in at a EB and replace myself with another one?...and for the dead pixels...don't I need to bring it to a store to get it exchanged or returned anyways?... :pinch:

and for the games...like I know when you first crack on the PSP, it ask you for English or Japaness, is the game the same?

Could anyone please test this: multiplayer with just one game

Hey just wanted to report on my first "hack"(if you could call it that) of the psp. I figured out how to play multiplayer games with one copy(works for at least tony hawks)

requires

2 people

2 psps

one copy of thug(tony hawks underground)

Step One

Person A creates game in wifi

Step Two

A presses open, chooses not to quit game

Step Three

Person B loads game up, joins A's game

Step four

Both Psp's freeze

Step five

thug is taken out of persons b's and placed into persons A's, B chooses not to quit game

step six

A takes game out, gives it to B, chooses not to quit.

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By Kravex · Posted

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
