i just viewed the ausmicro site via my psp, unfortunatly couldnt post because i needed to log in on a pop up and psp is pop up unfriendly…
i did get a photo of it though! i should get it up on the web by the weekend… ausmicro on the psp in bed= awesome!
this is what i hoped for 10 years ago when i imagined what 2005 would be like. oh, that kyosho mini-z awd vid converted into mp4 looks amazing on psp… great entertainment while having a smoke…
ok bithed, what are these dubious umd’s going to cost us aussies?
ok, after downloading that vid of them in action and converting it to mp4 and watching it on the psp while smoking a ciggy i became highly excited!
screw the chassis set, Aaron i want that white ready-set you have on pre order and i want it a.s.a.p! a fourth working controller could come in handy down the road!
damn that drift action looked sweet as!
and when can i get my filthy mits on the 4wd chassis?
Aaron, hook me up with the 4wd chassis on its own and that ford f50 red truck you have sitting on the shelf. let me know the price and i want it all by december 25th!
possible or impossible?
ah bithed, i got a favor to ask you… i have heard about the local japanese market for umd disks of a dubious nature… movies of local beauties and the like doing things we shouldnt talk about here… things your wife would get angry at you for possesing… can you do some research into the titles and availability of such titles for me?
oh and that battery pack i mentioned. it doesnt charge the battery but acts like an auxillery power source when the psp battery is too low to run things… nimh aaa’s kept the system going for an extra 2 hours last night… works like a charm!
yes, psp version 2.0 has been cracked. a 1.5 downgrader is available but the added features of 2,0 are making users want homebrew on that system.
at the moment the exploit uses the picture buffer memeory to use the programs, such as file sharing using the picture sending feature. its in early days so far and sony are expected to release a 2.1 version to combat it.
gta liberty city stories is on its way soon as well… 21st to be exact… 7 modes of multiplay.
going by the excelent multiplayer dgs,pete and i had on saturday night ill be definatly after the fun of gta…
great betty, pity my bits dont get used much at all these days. i knew the mini-z would kill em!
but ill still get a few for later downthe track…
by the way, who the hell is john hunt?
well ill have to wait then!
like i said, im not interested in those bodies nor another controller. if it fits mr01 bodies im a very happy camper. when this all plays out ill be definatly just getting one of the cars.
haha! it wasnt necisary at all dave! but really, after 4 hours of searching the web i came to the conclusion that if the homebrew applications cant get into version 2.0 then there is something wrong. that and 1.52 (which is what our systems had on it when we bought them) doesnt have any homebrew applications either so why not grab the new added features right now.
dave, none of them are genuine sony usb cables. you cant get them yet. the one im keeping can suck power from the usb interface. i have two spare that dont power up the psp and your welcome to have one for free.
ive unlocked ascension league and one classic track so far, and 2 more zone mode tracks.
have you checked out the extras/teasers section of the disk and had a go at fired up yet?
remember that wipeout pure has a sendable demo of pure and fired up.
meaning that only one copy of the game is required to download the demos via wi-fi to the second system. the demos are multiplayer as well.
im very interested as well, but a price is a must!
can you find out if you can get the chassis sets Aaron, i have so many bodies and enough controlers allready. could be good for sales as well for you!
get that distributor onto it!
congratulations dgs, whats medievil like?
i might have a spare usb cable i can send your way… let me know if your interested

A.
nooo!
that is quite a drop indeed!
you just have to come up to sydney to have a go on the foam track with this thing Aaron, see if all this fancy kit can outperform my supra!
so yellow stood out well in the vid eh? i might have to paint up a body that stands out better…
whatever happened to that fella roe? he had the camera hook ups didnt he?
i wooped you all in the first vid that Aaron posted… the metalic supra coming out of the first collision, thats me.

dial up in a motel half way home in taree is incredibly slow. cant wait to see the vid and it was a superior racing experience on those matts. i had a great time that day and cant wait till next time i come down and woop you all! *evil laughter*
hows your elbow pete?

keyboard for a psp? looks legit to me… ausmicro in bed here we come!
i got one of the usb power cables panda, it sucks the power from the usb plug on the laptop and feeds it through the standard dc power jack while simultaniuosly connecting (the cord forks into two ends on the psp side) the psp using usb 2.0 via the top jack.
i have been charging it up using that cord while using the internet and also while watcing dvd’s on the ps2 and using its usb jacks. sweet eh?!
i did notice that when i used the proper adapter for the power point it charged waaay faster. i thought it might be because i have only charged it up twice.
3 pixels! wow thats gotta suck! but your right about them not being a problem as they are sooo tiny.
too late on the update panda, i jumped in and did it. after searching around for anything fancy that would run on 1.52 and coming up with nothing i thought why not jump in the deep end and wait untill someone cracks 2.0.
some of the new features where more picture formats are recognised, a web browser, wallpaper option for any of the stored pc and the ability to wirelessly send pics to other psp’s.
mypsp now has some tasteful naked young lass posing in high definition widescreen as its wallpaper.
that golf game sounds fun, is there a party play mode? like multyplay on one system taking turns?
heres some little reviews for the two games i have:
wipeout pure is so damned pretty it makes my eyes bleed (well almost!). today i reached the third racing class and it hammers along without skipping a beat. im sure in the higher up leagues when a pile up and lots of weapons go off it will slow down a bit but i dont mind that. kinda reminds me of old school gaming when really intense moments when the old megadrive couldnt take the pace and had to slow everything into slo mo. zone mode returns and now the zone mode tracks (ive unlocked 2 now so i have 3) resemble the proto type tracks from wipeout 3 special edition on ps1. tron on amphetamines really! the music is great but sometimes just doesnt pump like the old 2097 did.
need for speed is basicly underground 2 on ps2 without the driving in between events. almost everything is in there and its great for variety of different racing and purty cars to do up. i have an mx-5 and a celica at the moment. cant wait to see some nicer vehicles unlock. the only gripe ve got so far is that the drift events have changed drasticly, you know have a large warehouse space that has poles in it and big wedges light up that are the ‘drift zones’ that have to be drifted over. the free style drift element from underground on ps2 is no more *cries*.
a few more questions panda: where do i transfer mp4 videos onto the psp file on the mem. stick? i managed to make a photo file and save suff onto it but movies are beyond me.
what fancy stuff have you got running on your system and what OS is yours running on?
thanks for the ebay tip, im checking for the cards right now…
i picked up my psp from civic today and its quite impressive. both need for speed rivals and wipeout pure look,sound and play amazingly.
one stuck pixel is on my screen, but it only is visible when the screen is black (it shows up white). it isnt visible at all when other colours are in the area.
confirmed on the version 1.52 i the system. a red and white card inside the package tries to scare you into updating by saying its really important to upgrade the system software.
when i get a few more hours of play ill let you know about the games.
ok ive done myself a little research today about the psp. i was due to pick mine up today but ill have to wait till tomorrow when i can borrow the extra $200 i need from my lovely mother. i would have got it today had i not wasted so much dosh on a trajic ski trip to perisher this week, but oh well!
it seems the version 2.0 software isnt downloaded onto the system at purchase, the sneaky buggers have put the 2.0 update onto the free sampler disk that comes with the system and automaticly updates once the disk is loaded. an employee of EB kindly demonstrated the total waste of time that the sampler is to me while i had to get some grocery shopping today. full of demo videos of games and a trailer of a few movies.
the system comes loaded with version 1.52 i was shown but after coming home and checking out the aftermarket apps most little programs only support up to 1.5 which bums me out a little…
for the musicly minded folks looks like fun, but i wont be getting to try it for quite a while.
midnight club dub edition got a release yesterday
but tomorrow im set to pick up wipeout and need for speed. ive heard that wipeout contains sharable demos of both wipeout pure and fired up! which is kind of like twisted metal meets gta.
as for the screens the guys at eb mentioned that 2 returns had been made allready regarding ‘stuck pixels’. i saw one and it really wasnt that bad. not likethe anoyinggreen dead one on my lap top.
know anywhere to get cheap memory sticks panda?
that little board cant have anything to do with bruce.
very tidy Aaron, i cant wait to hear about the results!
this car looks so high-tech. especially with the maclaren body. its rare to see such a done up z with zero damage. i look forward to having a race with this car…
ps3 without a psp to talk to is a waste… and besides ps3 wont be around for quite some time. when i come by dave i should have it and a copy of wipeout pure so you can check it out!
supercheap auto has em for the cheapest ive seen. $19 bux for a pack of 4 and they are charcoal in colour…
although the games have not been region specific all the umd movies are. so all those who got em early from japan e.t.c. are going to have to do without umd videos. and warranty and sony consumer support.
i made the mistake of getting my original playstation 3 months ahead of release and the extra $200 i paid for it never made up for the extra 3 months…
dick smith is offering $10 off retailon games for 4 days after launch as well… good old eb is going to get it good next week when i show up with all my deals ive found and they have to beat them.
sure am, i got ine on pre-order from EB games. luckily they try to better themselves on anyone elses deals. toys r us has an in store pre order offer of the system 3 in 1 car kit (lighter adaptor,screen protectorand spare usb plug) and a game for 449$aud. eb has said to me they wil match it and give me some extras like a hard case as well as all the t’r’u goodies.
toys r us only as 4 games to choose from in the package tho, tiger woods golf, need for speed, spider man and tony hawk.
me being a sneaky devil when it comes to eb’s 7 day no questions return policy means ill be taking need for speed for a test run overnight and swapping it for whatever i realy want!
i have mecury and wipeout pure on pre-order as well so i wont be lacking in software.
what games are you thinking of getting panda?
