What a load of CRAP Written by Guest on 2008-08-27 21:55:21I gotta say this PSP SLIM piano black is the biggest piece of shit on the planet. I bought it as a package deal at an airport 6 moths ago , the plan was to transfer my DIVX files onto there 'cos my notebook's battery life life doesn't last for the duration of my flight! Once on the plane I unpacked the box , how disappointed I was.. NO DEMO GAMES, NO DIXV PLAYER! WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY ! Used to like SONY , but no more. You can't even burn disks for this stupid piece of crap. Just goes to show how narrow minded proprietry devices and ideas are. Hope some other sucker wants to buy this junk from me! I was robbed ! And SONY ... YOU FARKING SUCK !!!
stupid friggin BS Written by Guest on 2008-08-07 22:14:25CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!!!!! OF all the useless stuff, that anyone has made, it has to be 4.0! I can't even play my games cause o' this pile of trash... hopefully they make a better one than this... one that will let my GAMES WORK! BTW does anyone know of a way to like.. downgrade this useless software? what's the use of havin a slim if I can't use its full capacity?(or atleast, better capacity) BTW i also want to think that as the other guy claims that Sony is just playing with us.... and this is gonna be an extremely cool software.. ONE WITH FLASH 9 perhaps?!
join me Written by Guest on 2008-07-31 00:08:51we should all get together, find who is the head of firmware updates and torture them until they get the updates right
whare is my divix player??? Written by Guest on 2008-07-03 07:37:30I updated my psp hopeing to play divix videos because converting videos to crappy mp4 format is a waste of time.
I don't even care about the video speeds if I can't play divix or avi.
I don't have wireless so the crappy google Search is just a waste of my psp resources. just like the dumb skype I never even heard of skype tell the update that had it. my psp runns so much slower playing certian games than it did on 3.70, I give this update a 0/10.
I cant believe this crap Written by Guest on 2008-07-02 05:24:49if it wasnt for metalgear sony would be broke because i know their equiptment isnt for shit.. tell us how great it is and all of its poten.. and you give us an update that NOBODY LIKES!!! listen for a change..and stop being dumb
sonyufail Written by Guest on 2008-06-30 22:53:03sony u done it again brought out a bunch of bull crap FM 4.00 and 4.01 give psp users flash player so that we can watch youtube.
Talk about an anti-climax Written by Guest on 2008-06-27 02:15:42All that I read about firmware 4.0 supporting DivX and I puchaased a Slim due to the anticipation for TV output. Well done again Sony, so much promise, so little delivered
Youtube????? Written by Guest on 2008-06-26 21:31:49Guys, Sony DON'T ALLOW you to play Youtube, and i don't think they will. IT's better with Custom Firmware, Unlock your PSPs Full Potential. Still on Official FW is a sad story, fortunatley, CFW users CAN play Youtube Vids. Not being an ass, I would just adivise you, leave the official FW and upgrade to CFW
this is bullshit Written by Guest on 2008-06-26 14:49:18hey im not sure about this there is a psp update 4.01 see if its differnet or not.4.00 update sucked by the way.ill find a way to put flash player 9 on a psp. if i succeed search it on youtube.
ABOUT ur stupid new updates Written by Guest on 2008-06-26 05:45:06Make us proud!!!! why don't you guys make something unique!!!
useless update Written by Guest on 2008-06-24 22:27:32This update was pretty much bullcrap! I was expecting something useful, like an UPDATED FLASH PLAYER for youtube, cnet, dailymotion, ect, because many sites use flash now, and an update would be very useful. and to make browsing faster, they should have mad an update (if hardware capable) that uses remaining Memory Stick memory as Cache for browsing. But instead of any of those useful things, they come up with something completely unexpected and pretty much useless: the Google Search... its not much of a struggle to just go to google search. it saves only like 20 seconds of time. and it only does a web search, no image or anything, just web... That is the most useless thing that i've ever seen on the PSP! As for the speeding up/slowing down videos, it gets funny with certain videos, but its only something i'd expect in a very minor update like a 4.10 update. PLEASE Sony, make better updates soon!
question Written by Guest on 2008-06-24 15:46:21is there a way to downgrade it
Written by Guest on 2008-06-24 00:18:06wow sony havent u noticed psp sales have gone down...hmmm i wonder why? maybe cuz of bullshit updates like this. sony better step it up and do wat they're paid to do or there goes psp sales down the toilet. nintendo DS is more popular than the psp right now. COME ON SONY.
sony NOOOB! Written by Guest on 2008-06-23 20:46:17stupid sony!!! i bought psp so i could also watch divx and youtube and for now i can't do none of this shit... i hope they add this soon or i throw the psp away!!

noneofyobinnes Written by Guest on 2008-06-21 09:26:34Damn still no youtube sony. i got u
it takes awhile Written by Guest on 2008-06-20 09:42:57come on people you would gripe about any thing! besides it takes longer than 4 months to make flash 9 format for psp
F$@k SONY! THIS Frmwre SUCKS! Written by Guest on 2008-06-20 06:00:58I was hoping for more theme customization options like the volume bar and battery indicator in themes option . now i geuss id have to wait even longr for em . I LOVE SONY .......not............ nagh not really, maybe a little but only enough to stay away from cfw
Written by Guest on 2008-06-19 20:44:06This update sucks. "Internet search", this doesn't save any time at all. It takes just as long to go to google and do your search. Why would anyone actually use the speed up slow down function? Hey Sony give us something we would actually use like flash player 9 and DivX support! Ever think about what people with psp's want?
update? Written by Guest on 2008-06-19 20:26:18Man what happened this update
is meh i cant believe that after haveing 2.00 then 3.00 now 4.00 and this is it i cant even play my flash games cuz of the suckish flash 6
update 4.0 sucks ! Written by Guest on 2008-06-19 15:18:56sony stelt psp gebruikers teleurrr !!
zogezegt youtube en Divx ondersteuning viess oppp :d
waste of my DAMN time Written by Guest on 2008-06-19 05:40:42title says it all but maybe they will add the features with later updates...HOPEFULLY, MAYBE, but don't count on it happening anytime soon
Disappointment Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 23:06:15I just udated my psp slim to 4.00 hoping for flash player 9 and div x playback and all i got was one update that was internet serach i still cant go on youtube and google video. DOES ANYBODY HAVE AND IDEA OR HELP FOR ME. I currently just had version 3.95. This update is very upsetting.

Shit Sux Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 19:34:25Yo this shit sux bro! I want some Divx play-back and would it kill Sony to throw in Flash Player 9!?

Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 16:59:08stupid bitches, firmware 4 is out now
Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 16:59:00update sucked
Yup, available Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 06:52:21it is available (at least in the US). Check it out via the PSP Network Update.
not out yet Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 06:51:17why did you say
UPDATE 6/17/08: Firmware 4.0 is now available for the PSP.
when the update still isnt oout yet??
this is lame Written by Guest on 2008-06-18 00:01:04there's been a lot hope that 4.0 would really add some major new features to the PSP, from native divx support to a proper file manager - and this is the best they can do? A Google search? Meh. I hope Sony are teasing us with this and there's a lot more to 4.0 than they are currently letting on, otherwise this is a severe disappointment.
fash player Written by Guest on 2008-06-17 00:16:51when will flash be upgraded?
