so I got a PSP - now what?

I was about to freak out - I was REALLY close to freaking out - and buy a copy of Valkyrie Profile for PS1. Then I realized that I could get a PSP and the reissue of the game for not much $ more, and then I’d have a new system in addition the game I was after. So I did.

  1. What now? What great games are out there for the PSP? What sleeper titles are there that I should track down used?

  2. What cool tricks or homebrew stuff can I run on it? I heard there’s a big scene of people writing their own applications and stuff for it.

  3. Is there a free, easy way to load movies onto it to watch on the go? I don’t want to buy UMD’s at all, and I have a huge DVD collection I could load onto it.

What else?

The games I enjoyed on the PSP:
LocoRoco
both GTA games
Tekken
God of War
Lumines
both Syphon Filter games

Games:
Hot Shots Golf Open Tee 2
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
Madden 08
Lego Indian Jones
Exit
God Of War
Metal Gear Solid
That’s all I can think of right now. All were fun games.

Homebrew brings the system to another much better level.if you got a slim you are going to need a ton of help to get it home brewed. I had guy help me with a magic battery and memory stick. Check Craig’s List in your area I bet there will be someone willing to help you with that, should you choose to go that way. There is a ton of fun stuff you can add. Including the ability to save your games to a memory card.

Have fun!

I’ve heard Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core is pretty awesome. I’d like to play it, at least - being more than a bit of a FF nerd.
