Default Sony PSP info required. please.

I have a European spec Sony PSP and want to know if Asia spec games will play on it! The US spec games don't, but I have heard that Asian spec games do, any truth in it?

Yes they do, I bought both my PSP's in Singapore, they work fine, they upgrade themselves when you put a new game in.

According to my 12 year old - well you've got to ask those in the know
All PSP games work on all PSP's from anywhere. Only difference cover artwork and age ratings.

There CAN be issues on multiplayer where the game versions are from other regions.

ie you cannot multiplayer a US copy of Wipeout Pure with an EU copy.

Have a look at http://psp-news.dcemu.co.uk for info on what can be done - or drop me a PM - I have 2 PSP's, both Japanese and games bought in UK, US, NZ and Singapore.

Why 2 - well my black one is a 1.5 firmware with a 4GB MS and the white one is the latest firmware with a 2GB MS - both with extended batteries

Yeah, I think he has told me this before about the multiplayer not being compatible - sorry I forgot that.

Correct, the UMD movies ARE region encoded.

But when you can rip your DVD's to PSP MP4 format AND fit all 3 of the LoTR Extended Edition movies on a 2GB MS - who cares
