PSP 3000 to support PS3 controller?
Japanese PSP sales top 10 million
Kojima says Metal Gear Acid on PSN is "possible"Eric Lempel has posted an update on the Official PS Blog for PSP owners interested in what would be included in the next firmware upgrade. The PSP which is already coming up on the big v4.00 is expected to see increased functionality within its Google searches as well as more user-control over movies on their memory sticks.
"This new upgrade replicates the Google Internet search experience, delivering the same search results that you’d get at www.google.com. And with a search history recall of 20 items, Web searches couldn’t be easier.
"Another new feature delivered through the 4.00 update is the ability to change viewing speed during playback of videos stored on your Memory Stick PRO Duo, so you can speed through or slow down what you’re watching. To do this simply press the up or down directional buttons while playing a video."
It's good to see the Official Blog continuing to be so hands-on with the community and keeping all of their users up to date with everything going on. When the firmware officially releases, we'll be sure to let you know.

Next: Was the hype justified? Every console has a certain amount of games that are said to be the defining moments of that generation of gaming. Many of us have heard the tales of Space Invaders, Jous... |
Really dont care still jus waiting for the naext update for the PS3!!!!
Apparently you don't care much about grammar or spelling either.
I second that.
Wow, I thought that this said Firmware v2.40 details.
I was pretty excited. *Sigh*
not really bothered bout this update still............waiting................for the next update for PS3 lol.
i just hope they release 2.40 PS3 with along with the PSP Fw
psn id: gingo.... psp updates are usually followed quickly by ps3 updates so this should be a strong sign that firmware 2.4 is coming
I agree! lord Gingo somes it up.
I am also waiting for 2.40 should be coming out mid june or july
Christ, give it a rest with the "where's in-game XMB" crap, guys. Sick of hearing it. This article isn't even related to PS3, so such comments have no place here.
i doubt that this article has room for b!tching too Paranoimia
To Paranoimia: This article does feature in the 'Latest News- PSU.com' FEED
I myself thought it was related to the 2.40 update. My heart fluttered for a second, there. haha.
Crap, I have a habit of accidentally pressing the up/down buttons while watching videos on my PSP.
It would be nice if they had some DivX support to the PSP.
I think they should have in game xmb for both psp and ps3. It be more practical for the psp because you can listen to music while playing or if you have to stop playing video games you can keep listening without losing a beat. For the PS3 it be nice, but I just use my psp to listen to music while playing games, so its not that important to me, but Im sure for other users who want to chat with other people while playing that would be beneficial.
It would be nice if the update would have better functional capability for Remote Play. So far, that "extra", sucks. No matter how hard I try, I can't get the PSP and PS3 to stay synchronized. My PS3, somehow, disables "connect by internet" settings, all on it's own.

They promised us DivX support. it's time to cough it up! what's taking so long!? Guys seriously this is a post about the PSP when they say something abot the PS3 and forget to mention 2.4 then complain, until then shut up already.
I want the PS3 update! I NEED IT REALLY BAD!
@graphixmaster
People have been pleading for Divx support for years. We Sony fans definitely have to be patient grasshoppers.
Really dont care still just waiting for the next update for the PS3!!!!
@ Dave-the-Rave nice Advent Children reference!
I doubt ill use this feature, I was excited when the title read "Firmware update" but, then suddenly became sad when the title followed with "for PSP". I thought it was news on the new PS3 update.
I hope this isn't the only thing being added in 4.00. It doesn't seem worth a new set of numbers.
Just check out the blog and see what others are saying about this update. They are completely trashing it and bashing sony about 2.40 for the PS3. It's some of the funniest stuff I have read on the net in some time. People completely disreguarded this update as nothing but a joke. It seems the whole PS3 user fanbase is staring intently on sony for the release of the elusive FW2.40. which unfortunately is probably gonna come in july and not the 18th
PlayStation 3 update with XMB, custom soundtrack, Trophies where are you!?
hej do you think the version come out for ps3
Woopy doo, and when is this update to be released????
How is that a version 4 update? That barely makes a 0.01.
Why on earth would I want google support in my psp when the browser itself is utter rubbish for simple tasks such as checking one's email? I found browers in other portable devices such as the Nokia 95 way better than the one in the psp.
Really dont care still jus waiting for the naext update for the PS3!!!!
Good, but it's not a great update. Expected more since it's 4.00 (even number)
@ Altrbridge102 - you may be right, but I'm sick of reading this crap even in totally unrelated articles. 2.4 will be released as and when Sony see fit, and all the requests in the world won't see it released any sooner.
Screw PSP, I sold mine a while ago. Why can't we just have our 2.40 already?!
Is it me or is this update quite rubbish?
I mean, who wants to have more search history and google results similar to the ones on a PC? I thought 4.00 was meant to be something big, like in-game XMB for PSP, not this crud
Why don't they call it 3.96 ?
