Having done a little bit of reading, it seems that it is as simple as copying the files onto the PSP's memory stick, or downloading through the PSP's own PSN store. So this is, in effect, a PSP version.

Most (all?) PSone originals can be copied over to the PSP.

I didn't know that. As I don't have a PS3, my PSN username never gets used for anything more than downloading demos. I had no idea you could download PSOne originals for PSP, they really ought to publicise these things better.

Would I need a PS3 to download it at all or can I do it through my PC or direct onto the PSP?

There was talk of Sony allowing PSOne game downloads from sources other than the PS3, but I don't know if that's actually gone live yet. I think lots of people were pointing out how silly it was for any PSP owners that lacked PS3s.

Actually, thinking about it, I was under the impression that the PSN store that you can now get on the PSP (proved you have up-to-date firmware) allowed you to purchase the same games you could buy on the PS3, which would get around your problem.

Cool, I'll look into it. It's been a while since I went online with my PSP (It's been a while since I used it full stop) so it's entirely likely they added that functionality and I just haven't checked.

If not, I know a few people with PS3s so I guess I can get one of them to download it for me then transfer it to my memory stick.

Aha, a quick trip to the PSN website shows that you can download stuff to your PC then transfer it across to a PSP using their Media Manager software.

A little rumour that could get Skills all excited: it looks like SCEA has registered the trademark for the name Starhawk, which could be related to a rumour that was floating about of a space-based Warhawk follow-up. [ source ]

Target has released a package that contains the 80gig PS3 hardware, plus Motorstorm GH edition, plus Resistance GH edition, for the same price of $399. Sony isn't lowering the price of the PS3, but retailers have been taking matters into their own hands for at least a year, offering things such as free blue-ray movies (Target did this recently), or $50 gift cards (Target and Wal-mart both did this, and it first appeared a long time ago now). Does Sony need to lower the MSRP of their console, or will these retailer-specific tactics work to sell hardware? (Seeing the pack with 2 free games, both great - not like the 360 pack with Indiana Jones and Kung-Fu Panda :( - really makes me consider a purchase...)

Couple of good deals worth noting this week up on the PS Store. First, Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fist of Plastic is free this week. Just go to the Sprint icon under the New Releases section and then download the game. Second, Bionic Commando: Rearmed is only $5 this week (I believe it's the same for the XBLA version as well), which definitely seems worth it if you haven't bought it by now (like me).

Am I the only one thinking that Rag doll kung fu is simply the most surprisingly fun game. I just couldn't resist a free download of a FULL game and since I wasn't expecting much, I just had a blast playing it with my bro. The animations for the characters were simply hilarious.
I didn't check all the playing options but is it possible to send invites?

Haven't played the game yet to check for myself, but I thought I read somewhere that there was no online multiplayer for this game, which would make it kind of a ripoff at full price.

Help guys,

I wanna install Linux (ubuntu or whatever) in the system. I have a 60gb and i wont do anything yet but get all my media into my 1tb exhdd.


Also, when I format my system. its obvious that I have to back it all up but what will happen to games that was shared by another person ?
