Famitsu offers direct-feed shots of Kingdom Hearts

Filed under:

No blurry scans of magazines here, folks. These are crystal-clear direct-feed shots of Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep. And considering the history of Square Enix games, this might be the only screenshots we’ll see in quite some time. Enjoy the PS2-quality graphics. See the return of a very familiar HUD. And check out the moody angst, in the way only Square Enix can do it! Check out all the pictures at Famitsu.

Homebrew lets you play while USB charging

Filed under:

The biggest flaws of the PSP-2000’s USB charging feature is the inability to use the system whilst charging. Well, that’s no longer a problem with a new homebrew plug-in from N00bz. The PSP Slim USB Charger plug-in will allow you to charge the battery AND use the system at the same time — an obvious feature for the system to support. There are a few questions on whether or not USB can deliver enough voltage to make that possible, but user comments on N00bz’s website seem rather glowing. Yet another great product from the homebrew scene. Hopefully, we’ll see this feature find its way into official firmware before long.

Worldwide PSP releases for the week of September 30

Filed under:

Wait, wasn’t NBA 08 supposed to be out last week? Strange. Maybe it had to come out the same time as its competition?

If you have some money to burn this week, may we suggest Syphon Filter: Logan’s Shadow? The full review won’t be up until Tuesday morning, but it’ll get a pretty impressive score. >9.0, to be exact. Trust us. UMD movie Tekkon Kinkreet looks pretty interesting as well.

Zack destroys Crisis Core’s first boss

Filed under: ,

Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core is considered largely responsible for the massive sales resurrection that PSP has experienced as of late. Unfortunately, a US release hasn’t been confirmed by the good folks at Square Enix USA. It seems inevitable, but our inquiring minds want to know: when is it coming out?

Until then, you can spoil yourself by watching this footage of Zack going against the first boss. It ends with some revealing story details, so those that want to save themselves for the final game will want to avoid clicking past the break.

Uncut footage of Kratos fighting a boss

Filed under: ,

God of War needs no fancy trailers. It doesn’t need clever editing to make it look cool. No, all you need from the franchise is good, uninterrupted gameplay footage. And that’s what we have here today. Watch Kratos go mano-a-mano against this Chains of Olympus boss. It doesn’t appear to be direct-feed, but it should give a good idea of the kind of fun you can expect from the upcoming UMD demo.

(Oh, and because the finale of this video is pretty brutal, you must be 17 years or older to watch it. See it after the cut.)

[Thanks, Hashbrown_Hunter!]

It was inevitable: GoW demo strikes eBay

Filed under:

When you attach words like “not for resale” and “limited edition” to something, you know it’s going to end up on eBay. Already, one overzealous eBay seller has placed his demo disc up for auction. For a free disc, it’s getting a pretty penny: 1,150 of them, to be precise.

The seller says “allow 2-3 weeks for delivery.” Why? Because it’s obvious that they don’t have the disc yet. Hopefully, lostmyheadnmind, the high bidder, doesn’t mind.

[Thanks, Michael!]

Disgaea’s Etna Mode revealed

Filed under: ,

> /> /> /> >

One of the biggest new features for the upcoming PSP version of Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness is “Etna Mode,” a retelling of the original story from a totally different perspective. Etna, as fans of the original will remember, is one of the cuter and funnier characters in the game, and it’ll be fascinating to see her side of the story. Now, even those that have played the original Disgaea will have no choice but to pick up this PSP re-release.
