if i buy a uk psp what is the chance it will have firmware higher than 2.0 as it will be bought off the web i won't really know until i get it. if i buy a foreign one will it work in the uk just like the uk one. only really want it for the iso games on mem stick and watching converted dvd's on nightshift.

I doubt you will get a UK PSP with version under 2.5 now. But it all depends on your luck.

If you buy a foreign psp you can use it the same as a UK one, it will play PSP movie UMD'S and games. The language can be changed easily.

thanks alot for the download link.
i have purchased a brand new psp with 2.0 version on it (uk version).
can i just ask, is there any kind of master reset option on the psp??? coz wen all my relatives, mates check out the psp they always ruin the setting especially the little kids. so i just wanna reset it straight after!!!

thanks alot for the help so far. i am supposed to recieve my psp on tuesday as it will be posted on monday and it is next day delivery! but these days the royal mail is in chaos because of the large amounts of xmas deliveries!!!

ye, steve 191 has really helped me out.

ok anyway, i got my uk psp today. suprisingly the quality of the games are amazing.

when i was setting up my internet on my psp it does not work.
how do i find my : default router address
it asks but i do not know, i have done everything else such as ip address etc.

can anybody do a walkthrough for connecting the psp with a belkin 54g wireless router? i am having problems!

Luck for you i have that exact same router :)

Okay...to find your proper IP addres go to start, programs, accessories then "command prompt"

type in "ipconfig/all" (without quotes) and use the IP address it says it should be something like

192.168.2.x (x being any number 0-9)

Good luck

Ok if you go to your router configurator (192.168.2.1)

I think it may be the "Default Gateway"

i am now on 1.5

i have burnout legends 477MB. my memory card has 468 space on it.
after putting fast loaders etc i have left 440 just to be on the safe side.

is there a way of breaking this down so it fits???
without loosing quality???

this post is old. its funny how excited i was back in those days when i first had it.

i sold it 1 month after i had it. i realized it was a real dissapointment.

my version 1.5 sold for £215. so i bought a xbox 360 premium which has better graphics

you comparing a handheld to a regular console?
why dont u jus compare ps2 to pc while you at it.
i couldnt help but notice that you were sorta talking to yourself throughout this thread. any particular reason you double posted so much?
sorry that u didnt enjoy your psp, but everything isnt for everyone. psp wasnt for you but it can be for some ppl. what was available then maybe not what is available now which may have been another reason you didnt enjoy it as much.
