A New PSP (Go!)?


It's still not confirmed but will we be experiencing a UMD-less PSP in the near future? Oh well, that's what 1up have to say.

Rumors of a major PSP hardware redesign have repeatedly bubbled to the surface over the last several months -- some claiming the removal of the system's UMD disc drive, and others pointing to a second analog stick and sliding screen. According to sources directly involved with the new system, we have learned that Sony will quell those rumors by unveiling their revamped PSP at this year's E3 conference in June.

Many have speculated that the update would be called either the PSP 2 or PSP-4000, but our sources claim Sony will forgo a numerical moniker in favor of a subtitle. We've heard various rumored code names for the project (including PSP Slide, PSP Flip, and PSP Go!), but given that Sony has introduced the Go! brand of add-ons (the Go!View video on-demand service and 1.3 megapixel Go!Cam) for the European PSP, it seems likely that the new system will in fact be called the PSP Go! Our sources further confirm that this redesign will be available in two SKUs, with either eight or 16 GB of built-in flash memory. The system is set for release in Japan this September with a U.S. debut coming in either late October or early November.

In addition, since the UMD is going away, Sony will have over 100 classic and new PSP titles available for download at launch (Gran Turismo Mobile is said to be one of the premier launch titles). As for the hardware itself, the redesign will include a d-pad, analog nub, and face buttons as part of a sliding unit sticking out below the screen (as seen in our mockup above). Unfortunately for those looking for twin-stick shooter controls, the new system will not have a second analog stick, but instead will remain consistent with the current control configuration.

When asked about any of these details, Sony, of course, stated that it "does not comment on rumors or speculation."

As a bit of actual speculation, we wouldn't be surprised to see Sony borrow many design features from their Mylo 2 handheld Internet device, which is seemingly dead in the water. This could provide an 800x480 pixel touch screen for the system, as well as a camera on the system's backside.

Between the redesign and a strong lineup of recently announced PSP titles (see: Tekken 6 and Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny), Sony is clearly attempting to assert their relevance in the wake of the DSi's release and success of the iPhone as a gaming platform. It'll be interesting to see what sort of a splash Sony makes and the reaction the new hardware receives when it debuts at E3, which is only a month away. Preloading every PSP Go! with a copy of LittleBigPlanet would certainly make some waves.

Google Profiles


Do you manage more than two social networking accounts? Well, I have Friendster, Facebook, Twitter, and some blogs... But I know some who also have Multiply, Myspace, Plurk, and what have you. We know it's dyahe to give all of them all at once to someone we've just met. And with that in mind, Google introduces the Google Profiles. It's a profile page (obviously) where you can put a link to all your social networking profiles, blogs, etc. Quite neat, no? We can just give out a link of our Google Profile page and they can see all our other stuff from there.

Flyff: V13 Today!


Flyff V13 is being patched today. Maintenance is from 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. If you don't have the v13 installer yet, download it here.

RF Online: Novus Rising


RF Online's newest and most anticipated patch, Novus Rising, is now available for download. Torrent only, though, and what's available for download is not just a patch but a full client with the latest patch included. And since it's a full client, you have to uninstall your previous ones first before installing.

This new release will reportedly fix the glitches and bugs in the current RF server, therefore preventing the frequent server crashes.

I'm sure RF diehards can't wait to get their hands on this new client. But wait, you can't install it just yet. You have to wait for their announcement before doing so. LOL!

Click here for the download link.

Flyff V13 Coming This April


One of the highlights of version 13 is the Coral Island - another cash map just like the Azria. Tickets to the island can be bought (of course) at the Item Mall. Since it's a "pay map," you can expect double experience, double drops, double fun. Oh well, the last one I'm not so sure about. But looking at the pic above seems fun...

Anyway, Coral Island is inhabited by monters level 43 to 65. It is actually for low to mid level players.

Flyff V13 is coming very soon this month.

For more info, you can visit the official site here.

Cabal Online: The Black Suit


The Cabal Online Black Suit... for the summer? Urgghh... I don't think suits are so "summery." But it's cute, though. Fierce-looking.

The Black Suit comes in 7d, 30d, and permanent duration.

Rohan Online: Akhma, The Fifth Server

When I first made an account for the Open Beta, I wanted to join the first server (of course). Well, yeah, I did made a character in Torian but logging in to the game proved to be so hard. The server's always full. So rather than wasting my time waiting to log in, I made a new character in the third server - Syrephis.

I'm just level 25 now. Things are slow LOL! especially after the holidays when I wasn't able to play as much as I wanted to.

But I heard Rohan is such a hit that they've already added a fifth server - Akhma. Oh yeah, it's a map, and I haven't even gone there yet. LOL!

Hopefully, I can do some serious leveling this week. Hope so ^^.

Cabal Online: Lost World Patch Password

I know this is kinda late (blame the long holidays... and yes, I had extended mine for another week).

Cabal Online Lost World patch password: cabalsankapa2009

Of course you have to install it to your Cabal game directory. I'm kinda sure you know how it goes.

Or if you haven't downloaded the patch yet, go here for the links.

Cabal Online: Lost World Patch Links

Cabal Online's Lost World patch is coming April 14th. With the patch comes new weapons, and of course a new map.

You can already download the patch this early so you won't add up to their traffic come April 14. LOL! Just kidding. I mean, you'll have a faster download time if you do it this early. You know how download servers get congested.

Anyways, there's a password that goes with the file so you won't be able to install it until the 14th when they give out the password.
