Well I tried Gods Eater and it looks great but it kept freezing on my PSP for some reason so I will have to get a retail copy anyway.

I've been playing NHL07 - I'd forgotten how good ice hockey games were!

Looking for a bit of advice. As I barely use it, I'm looking to shift my old PSP Slim & Lite. Without wanting to pay postage or set up a PayPal account or anything like that, I've put it on Gumtree for the time being with the intention of selling it locally. Would you - the PSP collector - consider this a decent deal for £165?

I honestly don't know if that's too steep or too cheap. Have a feeling it is the former - I've already got an offer of £150 for the lot. I based it on £45 for the PSP, £4 for each game (45+108) and £12 for the UMD movies.

I've been collecting PSP games when I see them cheap or they take my fancy.

Also any news on the Grand Knights History on PSP coming out in Europe?

Not sure myself Roo but something like Ultimate Ghost and Goblins is pretty uncommon and may command a price. Could be worth digging around to make sure you have no real rarities first.

If you've got an offer for £150 I'd be inclined to take it. It's a good bundle - but as always with these things it's only worth what someone will pay for it. £150 is a lot of money for something you don't really use.

Think this will be a day one purchase.

Hi everyone. You may remember our announcement of Fate/EXTRA earlier this year. I know we’ve kept fairly quiet about it since then, but that’s not because we’ve forgotten about it. In fact, since we announced it we’ve been cooking up a rather special Collector’s Edition. Not only that, but we’ve now got something rather cool to show you:

Image

Looks lovely doesn’t it? :)

Our fantastic Collector’s Edition contains:

The game on UMD (obviously :))
The Official Soundtrack CD
A 16 page Artbook in a presentation digibook
All contained in a special Collector’s Box.

But that’s not all: anyone who orders Fate/EXTRA directly from the Ghostlight Store will also get these exclusive goodies:

A massive A1 poster (posted in a cardboard tube, so no fold marks!)
The Fate/The Facts book, featuring an interview with Rin Tosaka, as well as all the latest news from the Fate Universe.

We don’t have a release date yet, but keep your eyes peeled as we’ll be announcing more details on the release date and price as soon as we are able.

Talking of keeping your eyes peeled, you should be watching the Ghostlight Twitter account as, to celebrate the launch of the Vita, we’re going to be offering you the chance to win some redeem codes for some of our SEN games.

All our PSN games are available on the Vita Store, so those of you who missed out on our games on PSP should head over to the SEN store on your Vita and pick up some of our fantastic range of JRPGs. The PSP was (and thanks to us, still is!) a fantastic console for JRPG lovers, so why not check out what all the fuss was about? :)

That’s all for now. I’ll be back next week but until then, why not follow us on our Twitter and Facebook pages, our Youtube Channel and our Google + account, where we’ll be posting all the latest news from Ghostlight? You can also follow me on Twitter for a more personal take on all things Ghostlight.

Same here, have the anime on my 'to watch' pile. How long has Ghostlight been going? Doesn't seem like they have huge amounts of stuff.

Just wanted to have a little rant about the PSP Go...

I have a 16gb memory card which is used for music and movies as I wanted to keep the on board memory strictly for games. However I realised yesterday that any applications such as Sensme and Digital Comics must be installed on the system itself along with the media that uses them. The same is true for any music you want to play in a game (that allows it). It seems a bit silly for it to be like this, and I can't seem to find any work arounds (that don't involve custom firmware). In the mean time I might put my playlists on the system memory and keep albums on the m2 card.

Grrr!

Cheers matey, I've had my eye open for a good price on that for a while.

Didn't really want a Platinum copy, but beggars can't be choosers whilst the vultures and sharks are circling around Game's corpse :lol:

Can anyone recommend the psp Tenchu titles, are the controls as bad as i suspect they might be?

I picked up Tenchu:S.A.yet to try, control scheme is:
Analog-Stick moves your character, 'X' button allows you to jump or grab ledges, running with the L-button can make you jump farther (It also selects options in menus) , the Triangle button activates the 'Mind's Eye'. The D-Pad allows you to cycle-through, ready and drop items while the Circle button performs as the Context-Sensitive action button and also cancels selection while in menus. The L-button while being held-down allows your character to run or while moving the Analog-Stick allows you to walk laterally. The R-button is used while moving in a direction with the Analog-Stick and pressed to perform a quick dash in that direction or tapped-twice to perform a 180-degree turn. The Square button is used to perform stealth-kills.
