PSP Fixed

July 22, 2008

Yay ! I finally got my PSP fixed.. The fucking shoulder button that was forever stuck in the pressed position was fixed thanks to my new screwdriver I got off ebay for 6 dollars…. It was a real pain in the ass finding that screwdriver (phillips #1). I went through every god damn hardware shop and every shop that sold PSPs in Colombo looking for that bastard and eBay was what came to my rescue.

The PSP was out of action for nearly a year due to this problem and it was another pain in the ass coming upto date with the PSP homebrew scene which had seemingly gone tits up since I’ve stopped paying attention to it about a year ago. Now there is this thing called custom firmwares instead of the old fimware emulation I’ve gotten used to (Devhook..). Also it seems that the much revered original firmware 1.50 was now a minor convenience in installing custom firmwares. Although it confused my tiny little brain into shutting it self down for few minutes, I finally managed to muddle through all the interesting crap that plagued all the forums and sites and get to the important bits. Now I have CFW 4.01 M33 installed in my PSP and i can play dled games (since buying originals is really out of the question here…).

So now I’m currently playing Crisis Core : Final Fantasy VII

Although I’m only about 1 hour and 45 mins into the game, I can’t possibly give a decent review of it (even if I played it fully, my review would only consist of either ‘This is a fucking great game !’ or ‘Fuck FUCK FUCK.. WHAT THE HELL ! WHY THE HELL DID I PLAY THIS CRAP !’. This would explain why I never became a game reviewer !? :-P ) but I’ve found it to be pretty fun and engaging… Also, I have God of war chains of olympus in another memory card, but I haven’t played it yet.

In other news, Imesh, a guy I’ve known since grade 4 is leaving for fucking US on Saturday. He is going to enter Montgomery College in Conroe Texas.. So if by anychance a fellow student from that college happen to stumble upon this post, and also manage to find that guy (he is Sri Lankan, and is named Imesh Dias) please say “Whooo ! I know more people here that you do !’ to him for me.. please :)

Also in other news, we are getting holidays from 26th July to 5th August due to the SAARC summit. The stupid fuckass Indians are going to ruin my fucking school holidays now ! They are going to extend the school days into our August holidays to make up for that lost time… all because some idiot PM feels that Pakistanis and the LTTE are out to kill him…
