I’ve not seen this slick PSP flash site before : goPSPgo – a bit slow to load, but worth the wait.

If you’ve got a PSP Slim and Lite and are infuriated by the restrictions placeed on using the TV-out finction, you might want to head over to Foosa.

Foosa have developed a nice piece of homebrew that opens up the restrictions Sony have placed on TV-out, allowing the PSP Slim and Lite to play on a standard definition TV rather than HDTV, and will scale the picture up to full screen.

- Foosa allows you to play games on ANY TV over ANY cable. (composite, component, svideo, d-terminal)
- Foosa allows you to play full screen

Its been a while since I’ve posted any news here on pspculture. There have been a number of reasdons for this, so I thought I’d write a few down and let you know whats going on!

While I still love my PSP and I use it pretty much everyday, I’ve been busy with other projects so haven’t had the time to keep this site upto date. Added to this is a shortage of any real news to post – the homebrew scene is ticking over, there isn’t much left to hack in regards to the PSP firmware, and there is only a trickle of new games coming through that remotely interest me.

I could keep posting bits and peices from the PSP scene, but to be honest I’d rather post infrequently when there is quality news than daily when the news resource just isn’t there.

In other news, I’ve bought a Nintendo Wii, which is fulfilling a gap in our home family entertainment. I’ve yet to buy any games other than the one it came with, but I’m looking forward to trying some new titles on it, including the Wii verison of PES2008, which looks like it may be good fun. You may be wondering why we went for a Wii over a PS3 or xBox360, but the decision in the end came down to its fantastic ability to bring all members of the family together to enjoy the gaming experience, something which the PS3 and xBox360 don’t appear to do particularly well. While I know the single player (or online multiplayer) experience on the PS3 and xBox360 would be great, its does at the cost of excluding family members from joining in the fun.

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read this, and be sure to check back regularly to see if I’ve managed to write a PSP related news article….
