  1. Well, technically my mum scored it, but:

    A hour ago a delivery guy came around, handed me a package, I signed it etc etc. I saw mum's name was on it, so I figured it was just another gift that some random dude from some dating site. I noticed the Sony logo on the package, looked at the invoice and saw "PSP base pack white" and was shocked to think that some random person would waste a relatively large sum of money on my mum that she's never met in real life. I looked at the invoice more carefully and noticed two things of interest:



    1) The price/value columns have nothing printed in them
    2) The customer account number is 5,000,000

    Admittedly I didn't notice 2) until a fair few minutes later, and I was thinking of why the hell a PSP would arrive and she never informed me about it.

    Then it hit me.

    She just scored a free PSP.

    I don't know how the hell that was possible, but it's sitting on the kitchen bench, unopened. I don't know what firmwire version it has or what she's gonna do with it, but I know that it doesn't suit her lifestyle at all (since she doesn't get much time to play video games nowadays) and there's a fairly good chance that she will give it to me because she won't have a logical use for it that I can currently think of.

    I should note that she's still at work and when I tried to ring her mobile, she didn't respond. I don't even know if she's aware that she just got a free PSP.

      One of my main regrets was upgrading the firmware.

      Fortunately you can hack it up to downgrade the firmware to 1.50 and then upgrade it with a custom firmware that is a mixture of 1.50 and 3.03, the latest firmware and plays every homebrew game/app without problems. Win-win situation there.

      Unfortunately she wants to keep it, so I guess I'll have to look into PSP homebrew.


      She's that into video games? That explains some things. But seriously, PSPs may seem cool, but they're nothing worth getting in my opinion. If I wanted a portable gaming device, I'd get something smaller with a larger game library, like a Game Boy Advance SP. If I wanted to watch portable movies, I'd get a portable DVD player, and I wouldn't have to go out and buy movies only playable on it. Also, all UMD titles available are shit last time I checked. If I wanted to listen to portable music, I'd use my mp3 player.
      I'm not into an all-in-one gadget where quality is sacrificed. Plus, having a bunch of gadgets is better anyway.

      $10 says that you completely missed the title of this thread and the entire content of the original post other than the word "PSP".
