Sony release new PSP Slim and Lite
Sony have announced V2 of the PSP, and they’re calling it “PSP Slim and Lite”. Seems like a silly name, but it sure looks nice. The new PSP Slim and Lite is available in Ceramic White, Piano Black, Ice Silver, Felicia Blue, Lavender Purple, Rose Pink, Metallic Blue, and Silver. There’s also a very nice Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII bundle available too.

DJ Max Portable 2
It’s here! A year after the release of the popular DJ simulation game, Pentavision has released the imaginatively titled successor – DJ Max Portable 2. The DJ Max Portable games are similar to Konami’s beatmania series – hit the correct buttons on your PSP at the right time to complete the song. DJ Max Portable 2 offers a song selection of more than 60 tunes, and introduces a new gameplay mode – in Fever Mode, you fill up your Fever ability which, when activated, speeds up the notes and applies a 2x score multiplier. By filling up yet another Fever, you can activate it again for a 3x multiplier. No region protection – options for Korean, English and Japanese text.
Hori Real Arcade Pro 3
The Hori Real Arcade Pro 3 is easily one of the best arcade sticks available for the PS3, with the only real competition being Sega’s Virtual Stick High Grade. The HORI features the excellent Sanwa JLF-TP-8Y-SK stick, which is exactly what you’ll find in many Japanese arcade cabinets. Although the buttons on the HRAP3 are generic Hori buttons, they’re still good – and it’s easy enough to snap in some Sanwa buttons if you really must. This is as close to using a real arcade controller as it gets, and just like the VSHG, the HORI Real Arcade Pro 3 will also work on a PC (Mame, emulators, etc). There really isn’t much between the new Hori stick and the Sega VSHG – they both have superb build quality and component quality, and both sticks are fantastic to use, it really just comes down to personal preference. Although we prefer the VSHG (only just!), the Hori seems a little more solid – so if you’re enthusiastic gamer who really likes to bash your controller around, then the Hori might have the edge.
MapThis! for PSP
If you’ve got the official Sony PSP GPS receiver then this is something you absolutely must have on your PSP. MapThis is an awesome GPS sat nav homebrew application, and although it’s a little fiddly to get working – it’s totally worth it. MapThis uses imagery from Google Maps so nearly every developed area on Earth is covered, it also gives you your current speed, direction, altitude, latitude and longitude. It’s worth getting a PSP GPS unit just to use it.
