Recommended Posts

Hey Daz...

Better still can I wait??

:blink: Decisions, Decisions..

P.S. A big thank you to my wife for the ipod photo 60GB this Xmas...

I'd definitely not buy now, it's a waste really. Within the first fortnight of January the price will radically drop. You'll be able to pick it up for less than ?200 so it's not worth importing right now. Whether you want to wait for the UK release is a different matter. I'm glad I imported as opposed to waiting until March just because it's a sexy bit of kit. But there's the possibility there'll be updated firmware, and the (extremely remote) possiblity of regional issues.

Wel, on my memory stick at the moment I've got all of Lou and Andy from Little Britain Series 1 (20 minutes), Stargate SG1 8x12 (42 minutes), a chapter from Finding Nemo (1 Minute), Garden State (102 minutes) and 21 MP3s (115.2mb).

I've got less than a mb left so I'll have to delete a song or 2 to make way for save games.just to be safe. A 1GB card couldn't come sooner for me.

By the way Daz, where did you pick up the 512MB memory stick for ?49.99?

The cheapest I have seen for the Sandisk 512MB is ?58.40

Cheers

As I understand it, all games will be able to play on all PSP systems, regardless of region. However, movies released on UMD will only play in that region's version of a PSP. For example, if you boughtFinal Fantasy VII: Advent Children> in Japan, it would only play on a Japanese PSP. However, one thing about this that confuses me: would it only play on a Japanese PSP, or would it only play on a Region 2 PSP? IIRC, the UK is Region 2 as well, and with it being a handheld system, I don't believe there should be any PAL/NTSC problems. Therefore, theoretically speaking, it should play on a UK PSP, assuming that the lockout codes correspond to the DVD-defined regions and not the locales of the systems.

That's my understanding as well but we'll never know 110% until US and UK PSPs are out. Oh, and the PSP box has Region 2 on it, so I imagine it'll follow the DVD region structure so us UK'ers should be ok either way.

alrighty then, I'll be hitting odabashi camera to get a PSP and a MS for myself, I'll check the prices of a 1GB, and I'll post in this thread. Shouldn't be too long, since my fiance told me that there are free internet kiosks all around Tokyo.

Cool, have fun. It's one of my ambitions to go to Japan, I'm so amazingly jealous of you right now :cry:

You most definitely should. I lived there for a year back in high school (exchange student), and it was the GREATEST thing I've ever done!

Make sure you go to Osaka; it owns Tokyo in every way, shape, and form! :D

can i go to the store and preorder it there and then have them mail it to my house?

Uh, I doubt it. Why can't you just go to the store and pick it up when it comes in?
