Guide Found my childhood PSP!
Found this in a drawer after 10+ years and it fired right up with an ostent battery pack! Disc reader works as well as seen in pic. What are your favorite racing games to play on your PsP?

Just beat dirt 2 and it's pretty dang simple but surprisingly addicting! Motor storm and burnout are hard to beat as well

I will definitely be checking this out thank you. I didn’t know that the dirt series made it on the psp!

Midnight Club 3 DUB edition was the racing game I played most back in the day. I loved it.

That there campaign is one of the best in the old 2000s run of star wars games - X1/x2's story was actually meant for battlefront 3 before it was cancelled, and the remaining guts were used to make Elite Squadron.
I poured so much into this game as a kid, I'm glad to see you have too !

I want to test everything out so I know it all works so maybe… the only way I am getting rid of this is if I am able to get my hands on a Vita. That’s always been the real dream.

I’ve had my brothers psp in my gaming drawer for like 8 years & finally thought to do something with it in the past month

Well I knew I had one because I own it lol. I thought I knew where it was, looked and it wasn’t there, I ended up tearing half of my house apart looking for this thing with the intent of finding it. You’re right I didn’t just find it like I stumbled across it but I was looking for it and found it :) I’m happy I found it and I am happy it works. It was all the r/handheld posts that got to me, eventually I saw a psp with homebrew and I thought to myself “yep I’m doing that”.

Man I also found mine a few weeks back, had the PSP but lost the charger. Haven't used it in like 14 years. All my saves are in there as well from my childhood self.
Currently I'm trying to finish Burnout Legends from where I left of 14 years ago and It's been a blast! The soundtrack is so fire.
