I'm sorry to hear that. Coded Arms has taken a lot of fire for being not very good.
I don't know your tastes in games, nor the american PSP prices, but some games in Europe has gotten a price slash, so I guess that they have in the US too. I can recommend Lumines. (I keep calling it some sort of future Tetris, and I hope I'm not mistaken)
Some of the ports are great too. Burnout Legends is incredible. Sitting in the train, smashing for thousand of dollars worth of cars can't be beaten.

DO NOT BUY GENERATION OF CHAOS

It's a horrible, dispicable excuse for a "game," and is an incredible disappointment, as the artwork and music aren't too bad. Unfortunately, the gameplay is about as easy and/or fun as taking high level calculus classes. Without a teacher. And your textbook is in Spanish.

-There is no tutorial in the game.
-You can barely command your troops in battle, making it a toss up if you'll win/lose. Not to mention the fact that battles are incredibly sluggish and chug like the game is on an outdated PC.
-Load times are frequent and slow the game to a snail's pace.
-All the menu commands are confusingly abbreviated in 3 letters like RCT, ARG, PRS.
-The instruction manual only defines terms but doesn't help you apply it to any actual process or strategy.
-The DIALOGUE TEXT LAGS during story parts.
-The saving process is cumbersome (making you rename your save file and asking you if you want to delete some files even if you have hundreds of MB of space, EVERY TIME).
-The text is nigh-unreadable as it's a tiny, mangled serif font.
-It's not a NIS game, it's an Idea Factory game, so don't think I'm hating on NIS. I love Disgaea and Phantom Brave.

Just check the board for this game on GameFAQs, you'll see a real shitfest going on. Fortunately, the day I bought it, I also put it up on eBay for 30 bucks and it sold in a few hours (I couldn't return it to EB, and their trade-in value is 15 bucks, talk about rip-off).

I'm finally glad to have it off my hands.

I bought it for like 15 or 20 bucks. The Japanese version. Months ago. That shit baffled me and I speak Japanese pretty fluently. I played it for like 2 days and gave up on it.

Please, don't buy it.

There's your first mistake.

Anyway, I got Boku to Watashi no Katamari while I was lounging in Tokyo. It makes Katamari portable, and that is indeed goodness, but at the price of difficulty level. It's really hard. Really, really hard. You get used to the controls, but you never get too used to them. There are still stages I can't quite manage to beat. With time, I suppose.

What GENERATION OF CHAOS like? Whats it about?

Living Dreams, just read the post above you. o.o; And don't buy it.

you dont even have too read it. whne i saw it in the stores.. the cover made me decide to not buy it.. Popolocrois looks more interesting than that.


On a side NOTE:

As some of you know. Megaman Powered Up was released yesterday in Japan. that being said. the person who played the game gave us more interesting info that when you beat the game.. you also get to play as Protoman AKA Protoman Powered Up.... u.u.

EDIT : joy.. someone some megaman/retrofaction has proof

Man, I can't wait for that game. MHX was great on it's own, and how you could play as Vile (which put a new spin on the game), but with MMPU, you can play as all the robot masters and more, along with a level editor that hooks up to the internet for level sharing.

Replay value = through the roof!

I need some help. I'm buying a PSP (For the 3rd time) so the firmware should be 2.6. Is there any way to play homebrew games? I already know there is no way to downgrade the latest firmware, so... Is there another way?

Has it been confirmed that you can play through as all the robot masters? I'd like to see a screen shot or scanned article if possible. o.o;

More Info/Download
Ah, a nice step to anti-piracy, but GTA loaded and performed much better with the usage of my Memory Stick as opposed to UMD. But shoot, now I can get Ac!d2 running on my 1.5 PSP, excellent!

Wow, thanks for the info. I've been trying to play GTA:LCS via Memory stick all day long and I cannot seem to get it to work. I've used 2 different guides so I hope this one works.

Other than that, well, I LOVE my PSP, it's just an awesome device. I downgraded it to 1.5 and I've been playing Emultators all the time. I have FIFA 2006 but I haven't played it more than 1 hour. Nice game, though.

I'm waiting for the next generation of games, it's current game library looks weak to me, I'd love to see a MGS port for it... :drool:

I'm finally getting some actual gaming time on my PSP with Maverick Hunter X, was just playing Vile's game on the subway. Things are looking to pick up this year.

Man, I played the trial version of Rockman Rockman, the game is a little bit too cutey cutey for me. The voice acting in the japanese version is kinda kiddy-like. The gameplay is ok though~ kinda old school. I guess the level-editor would make up for it though =.=

Wow, I just made my ISO copy of GTA:LCS and I'm amazed. The graphics are AWESOME and the gameplay too, I've been playing for 30 minutes and you know that is a Grand Theft Auto.

I've been enjoying Emulation for the past weeks and now I get to play the real deal. It's soooo great to have the best of 2 worlds in a single device thanks to Firmware 1.5.

I think on getting a PSP for my sister, I'm sure she'll enjoy it a lot, I'm considering the White one, but I'm not really sure if I should get a 2.X firmware version PSP.... mmhhh

You can play home brew on 2.01+ firmware.. You just need a copy of GTA:LCS.

So... How exactly does this work? You need to have the GTA UMD inserted or something?

It's basically a savegame exploit. The modified savegame causes a buffer overflow upon loading, allowing it to execute custom code and flush the memory. It then loads up a launcher from which you can run your own homebrew EBOOT-files.

The latest version of the launcher is compatible with a lot of existing homebrew, including the best emulators.

Yeah I was wondering that. You can run homebrow the same way you run it on 1.5 (Drag and drop, you know)? Also, what emulators are supported?

All you need to know about homebrew on 2.01+ is on www.fanjita.org.

You copy your EBOOTs to the PSP much in the same way as you would for 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0. You can only run them from the launcher, which requires the GTA exploit, though.

I've tested this with Snes9x TYL 0.3, DGEN and NesterJ. The latest ScummVM also works if you set the exploit savegame to autoload with GTA.
