PlayStation Store for PSP goes live in the US
The online Playstation Store for the PSP just quietly went live on our side of the world with two downloadable PSP titles, 16 PSone titles, and a handful of themes, wallpapers, and videos. Wipeout Pure and Syphon Filter: Combat Ops are the first two $10 PSP games out of the gate, and highlights of the PSone list include Twisted Metal 2, Crash Bandicoot, and Tekken 2, all for $6. The store requires the download of a Windows-only loader app to transfer files to your PSP -- and now, after waiting all this time for PS3-free downloads, we're kinda wondering why we can't sync up over WiFi. Eh, don't let our grumpy whining bother you -- go get your game on and let us know how things are working for you in comments.

Windows only? Boo!
Yup. Booo... Although, us Mac users can just boot into Windows. W/e.
MAC people play video games? Oh wait, I forgot about the Nintendo DS. Nintendogs RAWKS!
Us Window PC users can boot into Windows too!

Well, at least occasionally.

YAY!!!! Ever since I bought an Ipod Nano my 8gb MS was useless until now YAY!!!
I just made an account and for sure it's cheaper than EB and Gamestop.... for now.
Been waiting for this!
Good job on a job well done way too late.
This is great news. I dusted off my PSP for the GOW demo and I'll definitely check this out and check out some stuff like Castlevania for $10.
On another note, the site itself is TERRIBLE. They break the back button randomly and they're using HTML to scale large images down to 100x100 for the thumbnail navigation. That's like Web Dev 101. Sad.
It's also available in Europe.
i swear ive been running ps1 games for like..a year now?
legally?
obv hacked
Surely he can. There's the ps3 you know.
No....not the PS3, it's called PSP custom firmware.
WTF? Games via the "Canadian" interface are $15.99/$10.99?
Doesn't Sony know the dollar is pretty much at par? It's certainly not a 60% increase in prices!
Isn't the Canadian dollar worth more than the American dollar still? lol
1.00 CAD = 1.01869 USD
Too funny.
Actually, the CAD is kicking the USD's ass all over the place.
Damn it. It doesn't work in Mexico (HA! What a surprise). I hate this. I can only order small things from Amazon and Mercado Libre (ebay in Latin America) and all the music I buy comes with DRM since the coolest stores (Amazon's beta and Zune Marketplace for me) aren't avalible here.
finally!!!
At last, they finally bypass the PS3, about bloody time. I'll probably end up buying a PS3 on Black Friday anyways so it's a day late (and from the look of the website) a buck short. Now if they can just hurry along FFVII quicker than they did the website I'll be happy :)
Wow, why wasn't this done when the psp LAUNCHED?? I would have probably bought it.
MS needs to at LEAST support the older OS' a little bit
This is a good new, even for french people like me. Because in the Euro playstation there aren't a lot of game. In US playtstation store, i bought castlevania: symphony of the night ;)
Europe is always the old continent .

il sell my psp for a pound
any takers?
NICE!! Maybe I can find some old PS1 games to play... cause I still haven't found a *great* game to play on the PSP. I really need to utilize my PSP and all it's functions more. It's really a pretty loaded device when you add it all up. I used to have a DS and got bored with it... so much more you can do w/ PSP. Downside being the sucky games of course.
