How to Convert PC Games to PSP Games

Posted by admin on Monday, 16 January, 2012

You can run older DOS-based PC games such as Doom, Quake or Duke Nukem 3D on your PlayStation Portable (PSP) if you have the right software. Finding, downloading and installing the software does not require any special computer skills. Once you have your PSP set up properly, all you have to do is save the games on your PSP’s memory stick and start the correct programs.

Instructions

* 1. Download the free program DosBox for PSP (see Resources). Save it to your PSP’s memory stick under the “GAMES” directory. To do this, insert the memory stick in your PC’s memory stick slot, or connect your PSP to your PC via the mini-USB cable provided by the manufacturer. Using Windows Explorer, open the memory stick or PSP and then navigate to the “GAMES” directory.
* 2. Install the PC games you want to play on your PSP’s memory stick. When the PC game install wizard asks where you want to install the game, direct it to the “GAMES” directory on your memory stick. It should then create a new folder within “GAMES,” where all of the PC game’s files will be located.
* 3. Insert your memory stick into the PSP or disconnect the PSP from your PC. Start the PSP, and go to “MEMORY STICK” on the main menu. Scroll down until you find DosBox listed and start the program.
* 4. Type “cd/games” using the PSP’s virtual keyboard option at the DOS prompt. (Hit the circle button to bring up the virtual keyboard.) Then type “cd/” followed by the name of the game directory for the game you want to play. Finally, type the name of the executable file (“.exe”) listed in that directory. Your PC game should start.
* 5. Troubleshoot your individual PC game by experimenting with the various game controls. Since the PSP obviously has fewer inputs than a PC’s mouse and keyboard, you may have to use trial and error to discover how to play your game successfully on the PSP.

That’s one way it’ll come out on top of Modern Warfare 3.

Battlefield 3 will ship on two Xbox 360 discs in Japan, that’s according to a poster for the game reported by Hachimaki.

The poster states the game comes on “DVD-ROM x2″ for Xbox 360, whereas the PlayStation 3 version is packed into a single Blu-ray.

It’s not clear if this means EA and DICE will split the campaign and multiplayer elements out onto their own disc, or indeed if the information is accurate and applies to the game’s Western release.

DICE recently confirmed that Battlefield 3 won’t allow civilian casualties and that fans shouldn’t worry too much about Battlefield 3 on consoles.

Battlefield 3 will be released October 28 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.


PS4 production to begin later this year?

Posted by admin on Wednesday, 6 July, 2011


We’re still waiting on that globe-like PS9 (aren’t you?), but seeing as how wireless head-to-console gaming isn’t yet available or ethical, we’ll make do with PS4 rumors. Based on nothing more than a game of component-maker telephone, sources out of Taiwan are telling Digitimes to expect a brand new PlayStation 4 for launch sometime in early 2012. Reportedly on board for this latest iteration are baked-in motion controls à la Kinect and a holographic David Lynch virtual pet. We kid, but we do hope he helms those new ads. According to these anonymous insiders, Sony has a planned production run of 20 million consoles for launch — all headed straight to eBay, we imagine. It should go without saying that news of this kind should be taken with a mouthful of salt, but with the PS3 turning five this November, it’s a safe bet that there’s a successor to the “It Only Does Everything” throne on the way.
