[dave g]

i just managed to get a psp off ebay for £45 with a 1gig card and tennis game but need some games for it now.
my psp


i like driving/fighting/strategy games.

i like realistic driving games tho,tekken/streetfighter is my idea of fighting game,C&C is one of my favourite strategy games and things like age of empires etc.

is gta any good..used to have one of the GTA games on pc and loved it..

Lemmings!

[dave g]

lemmings and worms were 2 of my fav games back in the day hehe..

driving has gotta be test drive unlimited for me out of the ones ive played anyway! can get online with t too for some close racing a lil more unrealistic is juiced 2 but stll good for modding cars n going stupid speeds! fighting has gotta be any of the naruto games (think theres about 2 or 3) tekken on any platforms good but kinda lost faith a lil with tekken 3 n 4 for ps2 seing as they were jus too simple to complete. ive got Gta vice city stories n its pretty good fun! all the usual stuff n the stories no too bad (its no gta 4 though)

gta is ok on it, the analogue pad is a bit of a pain though for accurate control.

lemmings is really class. love it.

mercury was good if you like puzzlers, quite original and addictive.

not sure about any rts type games. i play advance wars on the DS for that!

I was always partial to WRC.

i will have a scour on fleabay for vice cities and test drive then

is it worth updating the firmware on it..the bloke says its hardly been used so im guessing its pretty stock firmware? (its the fat psp)

dave

[jim76]

if you upgrade the firmware to one of the many hacks out there, you can play games from the memory card. just downlaod them from bittorrent etc.

they play far quicker as the UMD takes ages to load! plus they are cheap(free!)

[rowanp25]

yup home brew is the way but be careful which firmware you get as a lot are buggy! the official psp firmware are fine for free games there are free flash games that work out there n not to get on my high horse but im fed up of (downloaded/ illegal) games as for one yeah theyll run faster of a memory card but at the same point if we all did that then game developers 1, come up with more advanced n complex security which will undoubtebly slow games down 2 may dissapear completely n with no official support for hardware then well be stuck trawling through thousands of crap home brew to find that one wee gem to only find it works with a different firmware. hope thats not too harsh but thought it was my time to be the grumpy old man pissing on someones bonfire lol

[dave g]

no i dont mind buying the games etc,just if the firmware updates adds more functions etc then i will do it.
