That's Hot! PSP Burns Through Kid's Pocket

In a strange twist, a PSP handset caught fire while in a child's pants at school. Harold Clay, 12, was in band class when the Sony Playstation Portable caught fire in his pocket.

Clay wasn't given much warning, as the portable device quickly heated up and burned through his pocket. Taught to "stop, drop & roll", that's exactly what young Harold did.

The portable console was reportedly turned off when it caught fire. Clay's parents have contacted Sony and are trying to determine if any other cases have been reported. PSP batteries have been known to explode and/or breakdown, but I haven't seen any other cases like this where an individual was harmed by the burning device.

In an ironic twist, the name of the game in Harold's charred PSP - "Burn Out".

The PSP left 2nd degree burns on Harold Clay, who luckily was not hurt worse.

Bouncy: Virtual Lap Dances Vol 1 - Adult UMD, XXX UMD

It's official... Adult UMD's for your PSP. Yes, you can now order "porn" on your Playstation PSP. Although Bouncy's Virtual Lap Dances Volume 1 doesn't market itself as an XXX title, the UMD does show full nudity and some cowgirl sex.

Did I mention it was cheap? The Virtual Lap Dances DVD is selling right now for only $13.99, so it's definitely not like buying a new PSP game or even some real Adult DVD's. The site does say that it's not going to be released until 2010, but I really doubt the wait is that long.

Here's a description of the Virtual Lap Dances UMD/DVD from Bouncy:

"Virtual Lap Dances #1 features 12 of Bouncy's hottest girls doing very explicit strip teases with close up nudity and giving lap dances that go all the way. The lap dances go from simple grinding and teasing to full on cowgirl sex. All of these scenes are shot in first person perspective to give the viewer the experience that has made Bouncy famous - true virtual reality. Although not an XXX title, Virtual Lap Dances #1 is the first UMD release by an American porn company and the ONLY UMD IN THE WORLD that shows close up nudity, celebrating every beautiful inch of women and their glorious sexuality!"

The reviews of the XXX UMD aren't all that great at this point, but they appear to be fake anyway, so you're probably getting exactly what the DVD title indicates - virtual lap dances... nothing more, nothing less (ok, so a lot less clothes). :P

Buying the game will be difficult for anyone under 18, so stay away if you fit in that category.

Sony Discounts PSP to $169.99

Sony Entertainment released news today that the Playstation PSP has been discounted to $169.99, exactly $30 off of the previous price (it was $199.99). The price cuts are effective immediately, so you don't have to wait to go and get your PSP for the new low price.

The announcement comes on the 2nd anniversary of the PSP.

Sony also declared the following PSP games to be part of their PSP Greatest Hits collection, which means each game is now only $19.99:

Both announcements are great news for PSP gamers around the world. Continuing to improve upon their products and making it easier for players to get into the games later in the product life cycle is key to keeping sales & profits rising.

In particular, we have recently seen a steady rise in the number of teens adopting PSP as their primary handheld entertainment system, and we expect the new price will accelerate that trend.”

Terminator 2 (UMD Mini for PSP) review

Lions Gate Home Entertainment presents Terminator 2, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger & Linda Hamilton on the new UMD Mini (Universal Media Disc) format.

• Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton
• Director: James Cameron
• Encoding: Region 1 (U.S. and Canada only. This DVD will probably NOT be viewable in other countries.)
• Rated: Not for sale to persons under age 18.
• Studio: Lions Gate Home Entertainment

After he pushed the envelope of computer-generated special effects in The Abyss, director James Cameron turned this hotly anticipated sequel to Terminator into a well-written, action-packed showcase for advanced special effects and for one of the most invincible villains ever imagined. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a legitimate sequel: there's more story to tell about a hulking, leather-clad android (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who arrives from the future to protect a rebellious teenager and future leader (Edward Furlong) from being killed by the tenacious T-1000 robot (Robert Patrick), whose liquid-metal construction makes him seemingly unstoppable. The fate of the future lies in the balance, with Linda Hamilton (who would later marry her director) reprising her role as the rugged woman whose son will change the course of history. - Jeff Shannon

Terminator 2 UMD Movie for Playstation Portable review
Reviewer: Brett Michael Roberts (Renton, WA USA) - This new "Ultimate Edition DVD" of Terminator 2 Judgement Day, one of the biggest box office smashes of all time, is truly The Ultimate Edition. Unless you get this outside of the US (which I did) you have two disks. One disk is the movie (THREE versions of the movie, in fact), and the next disk is all the special features. And it takes DAYS getting through every feature. I mean, three documentaries, 8 trailers and TV spots, an entire script, interviews that you can access separately, and 52 chapters of behind the scenes footage, from makeup to visual effects, from editing to restoring deleted scenes. There are so many special features, this is what DVD was made for! You can also look at the original drawings of certain scenes, awesome!!!!

However, I find the real highlight of this disk (or disks) to be the movie itself, I mean WOW!!! You get three, I repeat, three, versions of the movie. One is the original theatrical version, featuring no cut out scenes (the worst), the special edition, featuring 16 minutes of additional footage (second best) and the Extended Special Edition that you need a code for (the best) which features 18 minutes of additional footage, as well as an alternate ending. Here, now, I will give you a step-by-step description of how to get this extended special edition. I'm sure most of you people reading this know how to already, but this is for those who didn't know this version existed, or don't know how to get it. What you do is, you go to the features menu. It'll say "Theatrical Version" and "Special Edition". Click on "Special Edition". Then, you highlight "Play Special Edition" and type in (you may have to type ENTER in-between each number) EIGHT TWO NINE NINE SEVEN (8 2 9 9 7) and then, the "Go To Theatrical Version" option changes to "Play Extended Special Edition". This is the definitive version of the movie. I believe that every single little, tiny scene that they cut out is in this version. Well, thats the code, now back to my review.

The picture and audio on this disk are SO awesome, you won't believe it. Crystal clear picture, and sound so loud that it's like you're in a movie theatre. The additional, restored scenes are remastered as well, and slip perfectly into the movie. If you haven't even seen the film, you won't even notice these scenes put into it. Usually, on additional scenes, the picture is dirty and shakes. Not in these added scenes. And, to make it even better, the scenes are presented in 2:35:1 widescreen anamorphic format. Yes!! Just the first disk makes this DVD the ultimate edition!! Also, there's an audio commentary by 26 members of the cast and crew, however, this commentary is just interviews put together to sound like a commentary. However, there's a noticable glitch in the theatrical version, due to the commentary. Well, if you watch this commentary on one of the special editions, you'll notice it's the same commentary as the theatrical version, but they talk about deleted scenes as well. You may, also, notice that they continue talking about the deleted "Dream Sequence" at the hospital, when it goes into the next scene. So, now, when you watch the theatrical version, you'll notice that the beggining scene with Sarrah Connor watching the tape from six months ago, the beggining of the scene is cut off!!! Oops! Well, that's forgivible.

Now, the second disk (or the second side of the disk) has lots of special features. The three documentarys include "The Making Of Terminator 2 Judgement Day", "T2 More Than Meets The Eye", where they talk about deleted sequences and the reason they were cut. The last is "The Making Of Terminator 2 3-D Breaking The Screen Barrier", about the making of that 3-D terminator ride. I loved that ride (yes, I went on it) and this documentary is really interesting. The rest of the features, well, I'm not sure I kinow all of them. Maybe YOU should discover all the features on this disk. If you own the previous DVD release of T2 (which had no extras), then trash it and get this "Ultimate Edition". You WON'T be disappointed.

The era of no-compromises handheld gaming has arrived. Get ready for immersive, 3D gaming on a portable console that is poised to change the way we think about gaming devices. With wireless internet, video and digital music playback, and incredible data storage and connectivity options, the Sony PSP, or PlayStation Portable, is a complete solution for the mobile digital lifestyle. Sony has combined both horsepower and groundbreaking features into a package that weighs just a hair more than half a pound.

Playstation Portable Design: The Sony PSP's exceptional performance comes from a 333 MHz processor that dwarfs the speed of competing handheld consoles. Add this polygon-pushing muscle to 4 MB of fast DRAM and 32 MB of embedded RAM, and you've got a device with graphics rendering capabilities close to that of the PlayStation2 (PS2). And because no game is complete without audio, the Sony PSP is generously appointed with built-in stereo speakers, as well as Dolby Digital 7.1 surround sound capability. Sony has also pulled out all the stops with the PSP LCD display. The bright, 4.3-inch LCD sports a 16:9 aspect ratio and 480 x 272 pixel resolution--plenty of real estate for heavy gaming action and widescreen-format movies. All of this is powered by a removable, and rechargeable, lithium-ion battery.

PSP Screen Resolution: The 4.3-inch display sports a 16:9 aspect ratio and 480 x 272 pixel resolution. Movies and games on the go have never been more gorgeous.

PSP Controls: From a controls perspective, the Sony PSP is made for gaming. If you're familiar with a PlayStation controller, you'll be a pro at the PSP's controls in no time. Directional buttons, as well as an analog stick are provided. Meanwhile, the familiar left and right shoulder buttons, as well as triangle, circle, cross and square buttons are integrated into the device's slim case. Finally, home, select, and start buttons give you quick access and control over the PSP's important functions. To have and to hold: The PSP's easy-to-master controls are cleverly integrated into the device's slim profile.

Playstation Portable Supported Media: At the heart of the Sony PSP is a new, proprietary media format known as the Universal Media Disc, or UMD. Each UMD can hold 1.8 GB of data, enough room for rich and complex games. UMDs, which are housed in a protective cover, slide into the rear of the PSP. Sony has declared the UMD an open format for developers and media content owners, so movies, music and other media are on the horizon from third parties. Sony has also signed on many popular game developers for the platform, so a deep library of PSP game titles are on tap.

While the UMD is great for read-only media such as games and movies, Sony solves the problem of data storage with the addition of a Memory Stick Duo slot. With Memory Stick Duo media, you can store your saved PSP games, downloaded online content, personal video and audio files, and more. When you want access to these files from your PC, simply use the PSP's USB 2.0 port to turn the device into a fast portable media drive. Then, drag and drop files such as your photos, MP3s, and videos onto the Playstation Portable, just as you would any other removable storage device. The Sony PSP ships with a 32 MB Memory Stick Duo, and additional media with higher storage capacities are available.

Major media: Sony's PSP-compatible Universal Media Disc (UMD) can hold 1.8 GB of data.

Sony PSP Connectivity: The PSP blows away the competition in the connectivity department. Indeed, the PSP's ability to connect to the internet, and to other PSPs and USB-based peripherals, is a real advantage. At the top of the list is Wifi connectivity, or IEEE 801.11b. Use this wireless internet standard to connect to other gamers around the world for hot multiplayer action--all from your couch, or your local Wifi hotspot. As mentioned, the PSP's USB 2.0 port is great for PC connectivity, but it also opens the Playstation Portable up for a whole range of future peripherals. Sony has plans for the PSP in other ways, too; the unit's infrared port speaks of remote control capabilities in the near future.

PSP, A Digital Companion: If you haven't already guessed, Sony has positioned the Playstation Portable to be much more than a gaming device. Out of the box, the device is ready to serve as a portable video player and photo viewer. By using the new H.264 MPEG-4 video standard, Sony obviously has its eyes on making the PSP a robust video device with support for feature length movies and more. In addition, the PSP offers a great way to transport and share your photos in JPEG format. And let's not forget the music. Load up your favorite MP3-encoded songs onto a Memory Stick Duo and you've got a portable audio powerhouse. The device also supports Sony's ATRAC audio codec, so you can play songs acquired from Sony's Connect Online Music Store. Sony even ships a nifty pair of earbuds--complete with an inline remote control-- with the PSP.

What's included w/ the Playstation Portable Value Pack: PSP device, AC adapter, battery pack, 32 MB Memory Stick Duo, earbud headphones with remote control, soft case and hand strap.

PSP Metal Gear Acid Game Reviews
S. Alix "manythings711" (NYC) - Who would have thought that this series would translate so well to the RPG/Stragedy genre. In fact, it feels pretty much like the good old metal gear solid I am used to on the PS2. The only difference is you use cards to plan your movement and you have to wait your turn while the guards move around. This is not hardly as tedious or as dull as it sounds. The game is just as exciting and the pacing is as slow or as fast as you want it to be. The story is told with wonderful drawings, and text instead of audio. I have to give them credit for bringing the MSG experience to the handheld world without sacrificing what made the game so great. Anyone expecting an action shooter hasn't played the original games, and they also were too stupid to read the back of the game box. If you're hesitant about buying this game, like I was, let me alleviate your fears. Any MGS fan will get into this game quite easily and you may find that it even takes the game play to a whole new level. I had alot more fun getting used to the gameplay of MGA than I did getting used to MGS3 on the PS2.

S. Johnson (location unknown) - I have Lumines, Ridge Racer, Wipeout Pure, and of coarse Metal Gear Ac!d, and i must say that Metal Gear is by far my most played, and enjoyed game so far out of the four. People are quick to shoot down this game as soon as they here that it is a card game!, and that sucks because this game is amazing! Picture sneaking up behide a soldier, going throught you deck, and selecting your "Sword" card, and slashing your ememy in two pieces with out him even seeing you! Guys you wont go wrond with buying this game. This is a must have!
