Ooh, very nice update. I hope the update is available for the US soon.

It'll probably be available within 1-2 days of the Japanese release (as was the case with 1.51 and 1.52). It also means that the European PSPs will come with 2.0 as standard too, so no homebrew (at launch) for them.

Well, I don't think it is exactly unfair, if that is true about Sony enforcing 1080p screenshots, even if the game isn't 1080p, as this will be a better indicator of how the game will actually look.

Yes, and I do think they were blown up but they could also be 1280x720 natively.

(They still look a lot better at 1280x720)
 
crude web transiation tools mention something similar on the sony site too..

No, European PSPs come with 1.52 - they've already rolled off the factory lines.
 
So can someone confirm that its over, thats it? a couple multimedia things for PSP, replayed E3 demos for PS3 and nothing else?

Or are we jumping the gun?

Fair enuff, I bow to your superior knowledge. :)

I guess it means that they'll probably start rolling out 2.0 PSPs within a month of EU launch tho.

Success!

Compare the images of the buildings in the PS3 mech game to PGR3's building.

Shockingly bad.

I daresay the final game will look absolutely stunning by what is the point of showing such early work. It just fuels the fire.
 
Rouge Galaxy looks nice :D the music sounds good too, any relation to the "SAGA" games? something about the front screams "SAGA!" lol

None at all. It's from Level 5, developers of the Dark Cloud series, Dragon Quest VIII, and (the late...) True Fantasy Live Online.

EDIT: Quest, not Warrior! Stupid habit.
 
I'm back. That sucked. I had to leave to go back to work when Captain Boring of the Financial Patrol took the stage. I sure hope there weren't any nextgen demos after that.

How can you say that?
Those screens are smaller and did you see both games in motion? NO!

Wait good point all the Chrome Hounds "screens" look like it's pre-rendered (IMO) I'd like to see it in motion first
 
I hear this conference (at least the part of it which will be held tomorrow), will feature actual 'real-time in game' videos. Seriously. It's supposedly because they hated all the BS accusations from E3 (despite them being mostly justified).

Should be some good stuff. Don't know how much teh public will see though ;)
 
ok I took notes for you retards <3

-PS2's lineup is weak overall, the games Sony is pimping are like "Uhhh blah"

-Naruto looks like my anus. Not even cel shaded

-Sega's games are PS Universe (looks good) and Let's Make Another Fucking Soccer Game XVIII (oh who cares)

-Winning Elevel 9 Ubiquitous Edition. Who thought of that name, jesus h christ wtf. Prerendered footage of a guy scoring a goal. Um great, next please.

-Wanda's frame rate is still all over the place

-Level 5 RPG interesting. They were showing a fuckton of cutscenes that were OBVIOUSLY 1080 (probably just for the presentation) and looked awesome, I was like "OMG THIS IS WHAT LEVEL 5 RPGS WILL LOOK LIKE ON PS3!" Then some characters with pug ugly textures started walking around and shit in the cutscenes and I was like "OH NO IT'S PS2!" and then it cut to normal 480i PS2 footage and I was like "ARRRGHHH MY EYES"... it still will probably be 2000% better than most other RPGs though, even though I'm not big on the art style.

-PSP system software 2.0 up next, pretty looking browser, download AVC (!!!) movies to your memory stick to watch TV and shit with awesome UMD quality. There is still no talk of pricing though, and I wonder if there will be DRM on the movies you download. Not that I wanna watch Korean dramas or anything, but hmm. White PSP has 2.0 installed already. NO HOMEBREW FOR YUO

-The PSP lineup reel was absolutely embarrassing. When fucking SMACKDOWN is the second movie to be shown you know something is very wrong. (BTW, Smack looked like the PS2 one with shittier textures, the footage had Taker throwing someone in a coffin).

-Tecmo had a PSP platformer where you whip stuff around your body to kill shit, I guess that looked not awful.

-First 3D gundam game looked like shit

-Second 2D gundam game looked like shit that was sitting in the sun for a week

-Power Pro for PSP...this would be good if I didn't already have MLB and a thousand GBA versions

-Baito Hell for PSP...looks like something where you are looking for a job? No actual gameplay footage but the people around me were giggling at it cos it looked funny.

-Rockman Dash for PSP...utter trash, texture warping and jiggling like a PSOne game, don't even bother

-Mumu no Shima - Looks like Animal Crossing with uglier art...JESUS CHRIST PEOPLE. HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT TO MAKE PSP GAMES WITH GOOD GRAPHICS, I KNOW IT CAN BE DONE, PERHAPS YOU HAVE SEEN A GAME CALLED 'RIDGE RACER'

-Portable Resort for PSP - A non-game from Namco where you're on an island. You can use a special stand to put it next to your PC on your desk or on your nightstand and have it sit there as your virtual dude explores an island or something. Also the producer dude played his PSP as a ukulele, face buttons were fingering and the analog pad strummed it. That was kind of bad ass.

-Monster Hunter PSP - The producer guy mentioned 4-player over ad-hoc, but I didn't hear him mention infrastructure, which makes the game essentially worthless?

-Crisis Core - Only existed as anime cutscene

-Winning Eleven PSP - like PS2 one but quite uglier

PS3 demos - same as E3, I don't remember the F1 demo but it looked kind of shitty and the physics didn't look realistic at all (cars sliding around looking all animated)

EDIT: Shit I left before the RE5 demo...oh well, the guy next to me smelled horrible and was moaning like he was in passion when he saw the Alfred Molina demo

Chrome Hounds does look like that in motion, although since I believe it's been on-and-off in development for about two years now (which is like 30 years in LET'S MAKE A GAME IN EIGHT MONTHS! From development time) you'd hope it would look pretty good.

Sounds like Little Computer People? Wonder what kind of interaction you can have with it ~ Seaman, Animal Crossing, Sims, Tamagotchi, or maybe none at all?
