On quiet days its nice to look at whats just around the corner, heres a few PSP items to look forward to in the next few months:

Talkman

A voice-activated translation software application designed originally to teach English to Japanese PSP owners. Outside of pure translations, Talkman lets players play games to test their fluency of a language.

As the SEAL commander, the player will be supported by an AI teammate executing traditional SOCOM team-based tactical, stealth and action gameplay. After successfully completing a level, players can replay the mission in an entirely new way through the "Instant Action" option, with different objectives, enemy and object placement.

In addition, multiple players will be able to form clans and take on their friends for team based high-action gameplay in SOCOM Fireteam Bravo via a Wi-Fi connection.

i really wanna go on talkman (dunno why) it looks real cool, a white psp dont appeal to me and the mems thing is useless as i can record tv straight to the harddrive on my p.c. to put on psp

that shows so much homebrew potential I'n not even kidding...

I'm excited

[vincesecuricor2005]

im wondering whether they will release it in the uk though

[Zaibach333]

I'm assuming the US will get it sometime, like for socom. I could use that jap to eng game too if I ever found the time.

[wakeuphater]

anyone know if socom will be firmware 2.0?

[vincesecuricor2005]

dunno but if its anything like star wars battlefront 2 it will work with version tricker : 0

[iball]

Well, from what I've read around the nets, people were using the SOCOM Beta ISO through a loader and used a version trick to fool it into thinking it was running on a 2.0 PSP. They said it worked fine.
Now, if the release version is encrypted using 2.0.....well, then it's going to require 2.0.

[vincesecuricor2005]

lets jus HOPE that aint the case the more 1.5 compatible games the better til someone works out a viable way of homebrew on 2.0 or even better 2.5

[Zaibach333]

wait a tick? I used the WAB version changer and couldnt get battlefront II to work on a 1.5... what tricker are you refurring to.

and I can only asume these new abilities to the psp can only be done on the new firmwares because the features weren't finished when earlier versions were maid or something....

I heard somewhere about people referencing the that small port next to the headphone jac and being able to communicate between psps with a homemade cable.

I'm not sure, but if more was looked into that, we could probably make our own mic features.
