Playstation Network Status

100px-PSN_logo_color_trans Many PS3 Gamers are now playing their games without going online. Hardcore gamers are eager awaiting for the PSN Status to be resumed. Some desperate gamers have even trade in their PS3 for the XBox. The reputation of Sony are at stake. Sony does not have a schedule or deadline for them to bring the PSN back online to the millions of PS3 users worldwide.

Many questions will need to be answer

  • Have Sony never invested or mean test the PSN?
  • Is Playstation Plus Members information at stake?
  • Is the customers credit card info compromised?

PS3 Gamers like us can still continue our playing just without the online experience. But the truth is most PS3 games are built with the online experience. Let’s just wait patiently for the PSN to be resumed at the end of this month or even June 2011.

PSP Download sites

Another alternative is to download games from forums where user have upload the games to file storage server like, Rapidshare, Megaupload and others. This will activate the download immediately just as you download file from any server. It will take less than 3 hours to download a 1GB game depending on the bandwidth and your broadband speed. You need to be a Premium member or there will be bandwidth limit for free users. PSPISO is a forum where games are uploaded using this kind of method.

Improve Memory Card Performance

A PSP will read Memory Sticks in FAT format faster than FAT32. For 2GB and below, the memory stick is always formatted to FAT. However, for 4GB and above, due to limitations of the FAT file system, the default formatted file system is FAT32. This will cause your game to lag.

How do I know if my 4gb memory stick is in FAT or FAT32?

In your computer, right click the driver letter of your memory card and hit properties. You will see this:

Diskproperties
Notice in this example, the File system is FAT32. Some games will lag in this format.

How do I format FAT32 to FAT? Go to Command Prompt. To access, go Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt Type in “format x: /fs:fat” (without the quotes and where x: is your memory stick drive letter). Ignore the warnings and just hit Enter or Yes.
