PSP Downloads

By Nelson Marzette

Downloading a game to your PSP is very easy once you get the hang of it. There are free and commercial games and PSP downloads that you can download online with the same format as the UMD version. When you download multiple games, make sure you have a large capacity memory stick to handle the games files.

The library of games in these download stations are huge, from top games in 2008, previewed games for 2009, classic games, and even games that are meant for other platforms. The greatest games of all time are Tekken: Dark Resurrection, Dexter, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Patapon, and Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops.

Although the PSP is a full feature gaming console, it also has the power and the interface to become a very good podcast player. With downloadable software, you can easily organize your favorite podcast shows and synchronize them to your PSP. You can also listen to streaming podcast if you have your Wi-Fi network on.

The latest firmware for PSP has a native music player which is sleek and tightly integrated with the hardware.
