First Call of Duty PSP footage (Call of Duty: Roads to Victory)

12/02/2007

Call of Duty is making its handheld debut on PSP, and the miniaturized WWII shooter is shaping up nicely. This new trailer shows off a decent level of environmental detail, and the game retains much of the chaotic action of the console games. The graphics aren't usually the issue with PSP FPS games, though - it's the controls that are critical. Without a dual-analogue set-up, making a playable FPS on the handheld is understandably difficult. But CoD is among the best FPS games of the current ...

Cannon Fodder takes to the field (Cannon Fodder)

29/08/2006

Tuesday 29 August 2006 Here's one to sort the men from the boys - or the older geeks from the younger ones - as another '90s classic is set to join Lemmings on PSP. Unlike Lemmings, though, the grisly-but-cheery Cannon Fodder isn't just being bumped into 3D, but receiving new types of weapons and tactics, too. Whether that's a good or bad thing is another matter, as the ruthlessly simple mechanics of the original - running, shooting and lobbing an occasional grenade through increasingly ...

Puzzle World crashes emerge (Capcom Puzzle World)

16/07/2007

Capcom's latest PSP release, Puzzle World, is liable to crash it has emerged, owing to a conflict between the new game and the latest PSP firmware, version 3.5/3.51.

While the problem was spotted and acknowledged over a month ago - and reported on Capcom's news blog - it turns out that the publisher didn't think to fix the problem for the game's PAL release, with the bug included in the game released last week.

The compilation collection is in the main uninhibited by this bug, but it looks like Super Puzzle Fighter II is significantly hindered by the glitch, reports suggesting the game freezes a couple of minutes into play.

"We are aware of this issue, and are working with Sony on possible fixes as quickly as we can," reads the report on the Capcom blog - though it seems a fix couldn't be mustered in time for the PAL release, despite the delay.

Puzzle World Trouble On PSP Firmware 3.5 (Capcom Puzzle World)

12/06/2007

It looks like PSP owners who recently upgraded to Firmware 3.5 are experiencing crashes while playing Capcom Puzzle World. This isn't the first time a firmware update has affected compatibility - firmware 3.01 fixed game performance in Jeanne d'Arc, and the firmware 3.02 update patched up PaRappa the Rapper's downloadable content issues. Capcom had this to say about the reports:

"This issue appears to be similar to the same issues that we experienced previously with PSP firmware versions 3.3 and earlier, which was fixed with firmware version 3.4.

We are aware of this issue, and are working with Sony on possible fixes as quickly as we can."

PSP Firmware 3.51 soon? Probably.

Tuesday 4 July 2006 With the release of the game just over a week away and the premiere of the film at the end of the month, we thought we'd share a few shots of Cars for PSP with you.

The PSP edition is actually quite different to console versions of the game - it's a tidy arcade racer that might appeal to ...
