Feature-packed new PSP firmware released

Sept 11, 2007

Sony has released a new version of the system firmware for PSP, that brings with it a bunch of nice new features.

Custom themes is one of the most interesting additions - it'll let you stylise your PSP themes exactly how you want them under Theme Settings.

Video playback has seen further improvement, with a scene search feature added, and you can also set up sequential playback of multiple movies with the new firmware. Further media enhancements include the ability to view photos and play music at the same time, and you can now assign buttons in Remote Play, too.

A good update this month. This is, as we said,the Japanese updatethough. It should work fine anyway, but you might want to wait for the European or U.S. releases respectively.
