From my ritualistic tendency to check both dtoid and qj.net out several times everyday, i came across the words PSP and than Homebrew and Idol and Competition, and started digging deeper...
Apparently PSP Hacks has the official* story on this one and i was a little surprised that i wasn't able to find anything about it on dtoid...

As far as i can tell... well they have the banner, thats about as official as it gets right?*

All officialness aside, i think alot of psp owners who have made the necessary modifications to their firmware (I take NO responsibility if you brick your otherwise 300 buck brick) will freak out when they notice what the homebrew community has been up to when given proper motivation... still not entirely sure what that could be.

I myself, really enjoyed playing Stacker which is kinda like Jenga but with rubber blocks or whatever material forces the little bastards to bounce but not really bounce off each other... The game utilizes the Chipmunk Physics Engine to great effect, whatever that means. I think most will compare it as a free 2D version of Spielberg's Boomblox which came out not too long ago on the wii.

The "competition," i guess, seems fierce. But with no discernible categories for winning, it's really hard to tell whats "going" on in that regard let alone if anybody will actually win anything at all.

But as with all things vg related, its the guy or gal on the other side of the screen who ultimately comes out victorious in the end until they end up having to buy a new psp.

An interesting twist on the situation is that the authors for the most part seem pretty open to criticisms / suggestions, so if you try out any homebrews and actually have some kind of meaningful input to offer, who knows, maybe your dreams will come true. Your sick, sick dreams.

enjoy!
