Yeah I was that desperate and stiny to play the new Final Fantasy Tactics game. Got PSP slim plus Final Fantasy Tictacs for £135. I'm also pretty sure I only gave the cashier £125 so I think I may have just been illegal. Awesome.

So my gimped PSP has no memory card, no USB cable and noe tv cable. I can probably find a memory card and a USB lying around with little to no trouble. Is it possible to buy these tv connector cables seperate?

Also, is it possible to connect to TEH INterWEBz via USB to a mac or PC? I'm not too bright on these things plus the instruction book appears to be gimped too.




Just realised my blog has a habit of using the word Gimped.

you can buy the tv cables seperately
you cant browse or play games online using the usb cable, if thats what you mean. the psp has to be in usb mode, which essentially means 'fancy looking flash drive' mode.

Knowing the queen's country, you'll probably pay 20 quid for the tv cables (you can only PLAY the games on a HDTV using the component cable; don't buy the composite).

FFT is out? Is that only in Europe? Or stateside, too? If so, it's gonna be a great weekend!

Check slickdeals.net for memory cards, you can usually find the 4 gig versions on special for roughly 20 pounds plus shipping across the pond.

Cheap as hell, when you aren't taxed nineteen ways to Sunday!

Hope this helps,

That is all.

Well then I'm gonna need to get that wireless network of mine running again. I'm guessing usb is just good for transferring stuff to your PSP from your PC right? I'll need to find a memory stick duo somewhere.

Bloody sony and their propriatory formats. Got every card under the sun except a memory stick duo.

I found a USB cable in my house with a small connector but that doesn't fit. Does the PSP slim have to have a sony branded one or something?

Yeah tactics is out in europe. Cmes with an artcard too. ooooooh.

Doubt I'd need a 4GB memory stick. I'll pretty much just use it for game saves, pictures and music. There's some 2GB ones on amazon for £12.
