PSP is Pee Pee

Well, it's more of a love hate relationship with this thing. First the hate. There are no games worth while available, and Sorny is releasing more crappy movies than you can shake a stick at while totally neglecting the game market. I think there have been maybe 3 new titles since the launch date? WTF? Tomorrow Burnout:Legends releases and I couldn't be happier, HOWEVER, to play it you may need to upgrade the firmware. The problem with doing that is it effectively stops me from enjoying the "love" part of my PSP, the emulators!

I am running a NES, SNES, Sega Master System, Genesis, and Doom emulator right now, and combined with bittorrent I have every ROM I could ever want or need to play with. Admittedly, this is NOT really what I intended to use the PSP for when I picked it up, but since Sorny has pretty much left anyone who did buy it to play games out to dry, I am really enjoying my new use for it! Sorny apparently doesn't want people to use the hardware they purchase for any purpose they see fit, Sorny has made any emulation impossible with any firmware above 1.5. Rumor has it, to play some of the new games, you need 2.0, which comes with a web browser, but who cares?

So, I am happy and sad. The thing I am most sad about is that the Genesis emulator WON'T RUN NHL 98!!!!!! 97 runs fine, but I need 98!!!! PGA II still rules.
