[Audyssey] psp and a couple of questions

2008-11-28 Thread Jose Lomeli
Hello; Listers, I got a question.  I heard that I can text 
message with the psp.  Is this true? I also heard that you can 
listen to satellite radio on the psp.  Is this also true? Also I 
have some games on the UMD disk.  How can I download them from 
the disk to the psp? I have the disks but I want to put the games 
on the psp memory stick.  How can I do this? Please write back.

From Jose Lomeli.

You can't put games on the memory stick with out modified firmware from my
understanding.
 This of course violates sony's warantee and all that.

I believe that there are some net applications written for the psp, but it
would be pointless with no screen reader.

Hi

I haven't, simply because I haven't had a chance and because I'm not using 
the latest firmware. I'm not even sure how you go about putting new firmware 
on - without sited assistance, that is - Darn, I wish you could do it 
throught eh pc, you can transfer the update onto the psp via the pc, but 
that's as far as it goes.


Anyway I'm liking mine so far, too.

Hi

You can't text message on the psp.
You also can't listen to satilite radio. You can listen to internet radio 
but that's not accessible to us.
You can't put UMD games on a memory stick. You can save games to it - spots 
in games, that is - but not the entire game. That's what the UMD discs are 
for. You can download some play station demmos and psp demmos and such to 
the memory stick, I'm not sure how but I don't imagine it being too hard. It 
might be hard to know what does what in each demmo because there won't be 
information readily available on it.

Re: [Audyssey] psp and a couple of questions

2008-11-28 Thread constantine (on laptop)
Well, since that's just about piracy - but not really - its sort of like 
asking how can I put a mod chip in my saturn or dreamcast (sorry, I'm old 
school). In other words, even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you, because if 
something went wrong, your warranty is gone and I couldn't and wouldn't be 
held responsible.


The most I've ever done to a system is re-aligned some lenses and cleaned 
out the inside. I also put a language switch in a sega cd. This of course 
was done with sited help. I opened up my gamecube a few months back. The 
warranty on these older systems is gone already. It wasn't reading discs 
right. I had to turn a screw about 5 degrees. This screw was very, very hard 
to find. The slightest touch to the wrong component in there would have 
fried the system. I was careful not to touch anything. But trust me, I 
couldn't explain it.


These are just some examples of what modifying systems does. This of course 
is hardware. On the psp it would be software based, but think of it as the 
same thing - you could screw up the psp firmware, or brick your psp.


Sorry for the lengthy response

 Hi Tyler and all.

 Ok that is excellent, there is an eb games right down the road from me.
 I will have to give them a call and see if they have any in.

 The case that I have is not really designed to let you carry it in your
 pocket, it is a bit too thick and has too much padding for that.  It has
 this little metal karabiner thing that lets you attach the case to your
 belt loop if you want to, I personally don't do that very much at all,
 there is too much potential to bash the psp into something that you come
 too close to when walking.  So what I do is to carry it in my backpack
 which I almost always have anyway.  Of course it goes without saying
 that if you do this you want to be careful that the psp is on top of the
 stuff in your pack and not under it so it doesn't get squished.  These
 hard aluminum cases sound very nifty and something that just about
 anyone who values their psp should have, I am definitely going to go
 check one out when I can.

 Thanks lots for the info.

 Tom

Re: [Audyssey] psp

2008-07-09 Thread constantine (on laptop)
Hi there

I really don't know what the point of the strap that comes with the case is. 
It connects to your psp, big deal. Its not like I'm going to carry my psp 
around on my wrist with no case, it could smash into a million peaces! 
However this case comes with a cleaning cloth, and screen protectors. I'm 
using both. Stil loving this thing to death. Its my child now.

a bit of a rant here::

Btw does anyone know if nightwolf is stil in mk: unchained? I love that guy. 
Not sure why, but he was the first character I ever played in mk3 for the 
genny. The sound his special move made was haunting but beautiful...I think 
it was supposed to be wind but was a horrible-sounding thing instead, which 
to this day stil brings back memories. Not to mention scorpions notorious 
get over here! line in the n64 days, and sub zeros icy freeze in the same 
days. I never did get my hands on any of the play station discs, however, 
and I regret not doing it now. I always wonder what mk3 was like. Did it 
have nightwolf? And trilligy for n64 was just mk3 from the genny spruced up 
to look and sound nicer, which it did. But nothing beat the genny. Oh yeah! 
that robot dude, named smoke I think. It was helarious when you kicked him, 
he sort of hummed. And when he punched or kicked you could only hear air 
swooshing, I guess, because they couldn't find a sound in the genny's 
catalogue quite apt enough to fit him. Lucang for the n64 rocked, he sounded 
and stil sounds like he could kick your butt in about 3 seconds (uh, that's 
happened to me quite a lot...).

 Hi Tyler and all.

 Ok that is excellent, there is an eb games right down the road from me.
 I will have to give them a call and see if they have any in.

 The case that I have is not really designed to let you carry it in your
 pocket, it is a bit too thick and has too much padding for that.  It has
 this little metal karabiner thing that lets you attach the case to your
 belt loop if you want to, I personally don't do that very much at all,
 there is too much potential to bash the psp into something that you come
 too close to when walking.  So what I do is to carry it in my backpack
 which I almost always have anyway.  Of course it goes without saying
 that if you do this you want to be careful that the psp is on top of the
 stuff in your pack and not under it so it doesn't get squished.  These
 hard aluminum cases sound very nifty and something that just about
 anyone who values their psp should have, I am definitely going to go
 check one out when I can.

 Thanks lots for the info.

 Tom

 Hi

 Well, this here aluminum case was really a bargin, because it came with
 a
 lighter adapter, earbudds, and cleaning cloth, not to mention 6 game
 cases.
 Everythings compartmentalized, so you don't need to worry about things
 banging around. It was all tolled about 24 bucks, and that's saying
 something since each item would probably have costed you at least 20
 bucks,
 so you get 5 things for the price of 1, oh yeah and it came with a
 screen
 protector- which I'm using. I don't take the memory stick out iether,
 because that case also came with a USB/power cord for the psp (one end
 has
 the plug to plug into the computer, while the other end is rather neat.
 It
 has a USB plug for the PSP, which you can charge it with, but it takes
 more
 time, or there's just a regular power plug which charges it like normal,
 but
 from your computers power! I thought that was neat, and I'll be using
 this
 with the pac mate. Oh, I also recommend getting a good pair of
 headphones -
 I'm currently using sony noise-canceling ones and I absolutely love them
 for
 gaming. Everythings crisp and clear, and they're good for when your in a

 very loud area- I find the volume doesn't go high enough to mask that,
 but
 who cares? Those speakers aren't meant for that. By the way, I just
 finished
 updating mine, because the manual and my psp's menu spoke differently-
 mine
 was a few firmwares out of date.

Re: [Audyssey] psp

2008-07-05 Thread Tom Randall
Hi Michael.

As Thomas said, you can get the psp anyplace Sony consoles are sold,
best buy, EB games, etc.  No, the menus do not speak either in the games
or at the main system screen what is called the home screen.  However
there is usually a sound when you move around in the menus, in the home
screen there is a little clicking sound when you move.  This is good
because you always know if your movement did not take for some reason.
The home screen menus are in columns and rows and are fairly simple and
easy to memorize, one very good thing is that the cursor does not wrap
around the menu when you reach the top or bottom or one of the edges the
way it does in Windows.  This is good because you can always start out
from a known point say the top left corner which happens to be the
system menu.  I am slowly but surely doing a write-up on the menu system
both the home screen and for Tekken which is the only game I have at the
moment.  When you get your psp you are going to need sighted assistance
to do the initial setup, you have to set the date and time and name your
psp and a few other things and there is no way for us to do these
things.  Once you have this stuff set just don't let the battery go
completely flat or remove it for any length of time or you will have to
have them set it again.  I wish there was some utility that could save
all your settings to a file on your pc, there is a usb port on the psp
that you use to place music or pictures or movies onto your memory stick
if you have one so such a utility should be possible but I have not
found one yet.

In short I really like this little unit I've only had mine for a couple
of months now but have been having lots of fun with it.  I have only
bought one game so far Tekken dark resurrection which I highly
recommend.  It is entirely possible to use the unit as a music player or
watch movies on it with a little memorization.  A couple of us have them
on this list, I do and I know Tyler just got one so if we can be of any
help just drop a note here.

Best regards,

Tom

Hi,
You can buy a PSP anywhere Play Station stuff is sold.
As far as the menus go you have to memorise those. If you have a poor 
memory what you can do is create some braille menu sheets and read those 
as you move through the menus. That way you can compare where you are by 
the menu sounds and something writtendown.

Hi all

I got my psp today. I've done a bit of browsing and, I couldn't believe
it, however there are user manuals down at http://www.playstationc.om

Under the psp section. They're not in pdf and are, in fact online. Not
to mention, the menu items go in order, so you can memorize it pretty
easily. I also got burnout legends and tekken dark reserection, so there
will be more info to come as time goes on. I'm just fooling around with
the settings as we speak. I really like the sound qualtiy from these
speakers- nothing wrong with it.

laters, just thought I'd let you all know

Re: [Audyssey] psp

2008-07-01 Thread constantine (on laptop)
I sure am having fun. Just a general question- what do you think about the 
display? On the gameboy advanced sp, when the light was on, I could tell. 
When it wasn't, I could (I have a bit of light perception in my right eye). 
On the psp, however, I can't tell how bright I'm making it. I tried making 
it as dim as possible, but then if I want sited friends to play it, they'll 
need it a bit brighter. How many brightness settings does it have? Maybe 
I'll try it in a totally dark room, as I can't see the light at all.
I love the organomic design though! You can feel the stylishness of the 
thing. Its just something you want to pick up in your hand and it fits in 
there like an ipod. Sleek, black and beautiful. Its something you'll want to 
pick up and use, but once you pick it up you'll protect it to your death, 
and if any finger print creeps onto its surface, out comes the cloth, at 
least for me, if someone tells you, hey there bro, you got a coupla finger 
prints on it. Its like your ipod, your jewlery. Something you love but don't 
want to harm in any way. It just feels so right when you play it. Sorry I'm 
ranting but I absolutely love it. People can see it, they think wow, that's 
nice. But I don't think anybody can ever say that they've felt something and 
they could tell it was stylish. The finish on it is glossy and looks great 
with the color, black, apparently. The only problem is though, with the 
slimness comes, most likely, fragilities. I'm treating this thing with 
reverence. Nobody touches it but me, and nothing gets on it, I got an 
aluminum case ((A place for everything, everything in its place. Yo ho ho.) 
I've got a cleaning cloth, earbudds, an extra battery which I haven't opened 
yet, a car adapter and the power cord. Now, this power cord. I hate it. I 
hate the fact it has two peaces, why couldn't they have just made it into 
one peace, like the car adapter? Oh well, that's my only real complaint. I 
love the aluminum case- it feels very, very sturdy. I doubt anyone stepping 
on it would do any harm (Of course I'm not about to try it, but its ten 
times better than just a regular psp pouch when your transporting it).

Some other things I'm seeing in the future are those little tiny buttons 
might stick, or the l and r buttons seem very clicky. I can't explain it any 
better, they feel clicky. Other than that, the analogue nub takes getting 
used to, but other than that it feels well balanced. I wish it vibrated, 
though! I loved the ps2 for doing that. I also hate the way the memory stick 
comes out- there's a cover on rubber rails. I could see that coming off if 
someone wasn't careful. The power switch is nifty, though, I especially like 
the standby mode, that sure helps a lot. I can just hit pause, hit the 
switch forward once and bang. No saying hey, wait for me, I gotta turn this 
thing off. And no load times to get the game started again.

I wish there was a program out there, on the pc, that told you how many 
hours or percent left of the psp's battery. I wonder if someone could make 
one of those?

That's about all I have to say on this matter, those are my observations, or 
maybe my rant, so far.

 Hi all

 I got my psp today. I've done a bit of browsing and, I couldn't believe
 it, however there are user manuals down at http://www.playstationc.om

 Under the psp section. They're not in pdf and are, in fact online. Not
 to mention, the menu items go in order, so you can memorize it pretty
 easily. I also got burnout legends and tekken dark reserection, so there
 will be more info to come as time goes on. I'm just fooling around with
 the settings as we speak. I really like the sound qualtiy from these
 speakers- nothing wrong with it.

 laters, just thought I'd let you all know

Re: [Audyssey] Psp project in the works.

2008-05-10 Thread Chrissy
hi all,
the reason that we will never have full access to mainstream games is that 
nobody cares enough to pump any money into it.
we are not enough as a group, there are too few blind people around that are 
gamers.

there are more old people who turn blind than say younger ones who lose 
their sight later in life or people who never had vision.
if you make a game accessible  it will probably lose lots of appeal to 
sighted gamers maybe because certain features will not be able to be 
included. so the sighted gamers is where the target market is, and that is 
what the companies cater to. they want their money and can basically do 
without the off few thousands they would get from the few blind users, they 
could win over.

same goes for screenreader software. as you cannot simply convert a reader 
that is already out there unto a console, one would have to be developed for 
it. who would want to spend the time and money on something that is bound to 
alwys cost more than earn money?
the market is simply too small to be bothered. sad but true.

it makes me so sad and mad also. before i lost the rest of my vision i was 
such an avid gamer. i played every console since pong way back in the 70s. 
gaming is one of my hobbies if not the main hobby. now i still enjoy lots of 
audiogames and thankful and appreciate every effort thatanyone makes to 
entertain us thru this medium. but it is not quite the same, we are a 
minority and as always with minorities, well not the most important people 
in the world.
one cannot 'demand' accesibilty in games by law, that will not work.

sorry for this being so long but just thought I'd throwmy 2 cents in.
have a great day everyone!
chrissy

Yeah. Not that I've played it, but people say the burnout legends is just 
like burnout 3. I had great fun blasting cars away on legends and, if need 
be, I can rent it and get a friend to tell me the menu structure, and help 
you out with it. Oh, and darkstalker chronicles would probably be worth 
checking out, as well as street fighter. Not to mention some sports games 
I'd imagine- but I'm not a big fan of that, so I can't help there.

Hi,
Maybe a bill should be forced through congress saying that all mainstream 
devs must make all their games playable by blind people and that goes for 
all their consoles as well. and if the developers do not comply then they 
should be shut down maybe or penalties should be braught against them.

 And not to be rude, but mainstream devs, with but a few exeptions, seem 
 dead
 set against anything that would change their prooducts even for the 
 better.
 Accessibility for the blind? That won't work in our game. And anyway 
 blind
 people can't play because they're blind! We've heard it alll before I'm
 sure. And unless someone somewhere comes up with some staggerring 
 statistics
 that prove the value of making their products accessible, most of them
 aren't likely to say why yes, go ahead and make an accessible game for 
 our
 console! If mainstream accessibility is ever going to happen it's going 
 to
 take numbers and lots of them, to get the point across.

 Hi Josh,
 Well, writing a screen reader for a PSP is next to impossible for a
 developer who is not connected with Sony. Back when I started USA Games
 I looked at the idea of making accessible console games for XBox, Play
 Stations, etc and found out it is a very closed development platform.
 Everything you create for a PSP/Play Station has to be personally
 approved by Sony. There are no free development tools, SDKs, etc out
 there for it. it goes like this.

 A. You must sign a non-disclosure agreement with Sony not to release
 anytechnical details about the console with other parties.
 B.  You must pay several thousand dollars for the development tools. I
 think it was something like 50 grand or something like that.
 C. Every product you create for the Play Station must be approved by
 Sony Inc in advance.
 D. Finished products must be submited to Sony for testing and more
 approval.
 E. After releasing said product a percentage of your sales goes to Sony
 as royalty fees.

 As you might have guessed from the above list an outside developer has
 about as much chanse of writing agame or screen reader for a PSP as a
 snowball in hell.

That's not going to happen. It never will.

The thing is, now days, its all about money. EA sports, for example, will 
never get shut down. Reason? They have billions and billions of dollars 
behind them. I'm stil really mad about EA not supporting sega since the 
saturn. That's mainly why the dreamcast failed. I wish I could review it, 
but I can't find mine and I also wouldn't do the system justice because I 
don't know how leom does his.

Have a good day from Tyler C. Wood!

 Hi,
 Maybe a bill should be forced through congress saying that all mainstream
 devs must make all their games playable by blind people and that goes for
 all their consoles as well. and if the developers do not comply then they
 should be shut down maybe or penalties should be braught against them.

 Hi Josh,
 Well, writing a screen reader for a PSP is next to impossible for a
 developer who is not connected with Sony. Back when I started USA Games
 I looked at the idea of making accessible console games for XBox, Play
 Stations, etc and found out it is a very closed development platform.
 Everything you create for a PSP/Play Station has to be personally
 approved by Sony. There are no free development tools, SDKs, etc out
 there for it. it goes like this.

 A. You must sign a non-disclosure agreement with Sony not to release
 anytechnical details about the console with other parties.
 B.  You must pay several thousand dollars for the development tools. I
 think it was something like 50 grand or something like that.
 C. Every product you create for the Play Station must be approved by
 Sony Inc in advance.
 D. Finished products must be submited to Sony for testing and more
 approval.
 E. After releasing said product a percentage of your sales goes to Sony
 as royalty fees.

 As you might have guessed from the above list an outside developer has
 about as much chanse of writing agame or screen reader for a PSP as a
 snowball in hell.

Re: [Audyssey] psp operating system

2008-05-05 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Josh,
Yes, the PSP does have an operating system. Beyond that I can't tell you 
much more than that since everything related to it is held very closely 
by Sony and third-party developers in the know.
I'm not one of them for the simple, but important, fact I don't have 
several grand to dish out to find out.
In terms of the PS 3 Sony is slightly more open about it since they 
based the PS 3 OS on a highly modified version of Linux.

Re: [Audyssey] Psp project in the works.

2008-05-05 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Tom,
Exactly. If a screen reader were ever to be developed it would have to 
be done specifically by Sony. Screen readers by nature rely on some 
pretty core parts of the operating system, and even if a developer got 
the PSP development kit for games that would only give you the stuff 
needed for games. Not for really low level operating system dependant 
stuff.
Then, there is the matter of games themselves.  A lot of non-developers 
do not realise this but games don't display standard text to the screen. 
Most of the time text is displayed through graphics or is drawn through 
some graphics means in order to get really cooll, non-standard, text. 
Stuff that screen readers freak out when they encounter.
For example, ever installed a PC game like Star wars and found the menus 
don't talk? That is because Jaws sees it as graphics not text. they 
don't fit any sort of faunt, standard text, etc it is use to seeing. The 
text really is just graphics piped through the vidio card in most cases.

Tom Randall wrote:
 Hi,
 
 Well I don't know enough to say that it is impossible to do this from a
 technical standpoint, however I must say I think it is very very very
 unlikely that anyone will take this on.  Also, I suspect that even if
 somebody did make some kind of thing akin to rock box for the psp's home
 menu I suspect that this still wound not help us once you actually
 started a game.  I agree it's a cool thing to dream about though smile

Hi,
Well, I don't think it is so much they are dead set against

accessability.  Good accessability design and programming isn't 
something they will be exposed to in college/vocational school so many 
conclusions are made that accessability has to be some complicated, 
difficult, and very expensive adaptation to their games.
Then, there is the statistics. The statistics show the majority of the 
blind and low vision people out there are over age 60. A 70 year old 
grandma isn't likely to run out and buy Grand Theft Audo, Halo, Gear 
Wars, or any other hot titles in that genre.
So what would end up happening is they would be targeting a minority

out there that are between the ages of 10 and 30. I don't know but it is

Hi Josh,
Lol! Well, I don't think it will take 50 or 60 years for that to happen.
The baby boomers generation is already reaching their late 50s and 
60's. These are the people 30 years ago who were buying Atari 2600's and 
Nintendo's for their kids 25 years ago. Many of them enjoyed those games 
back then.
In another 25 years, those kids, my generation will be them. The 
accessible gaming market might be more receptive by mainstream companies.

 Hello fellow gamers.

 I am just writing to let you guys/gals know about a project I am working
 on.  Basically what I am doing is to write up a detailed description of
 at least some of the screens and menus that you run into when using the
 psp and playing Tekken to make the unit more useable for a blind gamer.
 What I have done so far is a description of what Sony calls the home
 menu, the menu that comes up when you either turn the psp on with no
 game inserted or you exit a game via the home key.  This is the menu you
 need to access to play music or movies and whatnot on your psp.  Also, I
 have done a fairly detailed description on the mode selecter menu in
 Tekken which is basically the menu you get to if you start the game and
 hit the start button where you decide what kind of game you want to play
 and make various other changes and pretty much everything else.  I am
 fairly sure I am going to have to add quite a bit to this one before you
 will be able to really use a lot of it by yourself, mainly descriptions
 of what to do in some of the submenus.  Keep in mind that even when I am
 done with this, there are parts that are going to either be really hard
 or require sighted assistance such as doing your initial profile which
 you have to do the first time you start the game.  Lastly, I have
 described how to get into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic
 moves and attacks and so on.  The tutorial is actually pretty useful if
 you know what order the different moves and stuff are presented.
 This project is just starting and I am not going to give what I have out
 right now until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I
 make sure that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done
 without sight.  The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus
 for Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most
 interested in learning myself.  Since I am writing the stuff up for
 myself I am hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other
 folks out who may either have a psp already or are considering getting
 one.  As I said this project is in its infancy right now and it will be
 a work in progress, I will most likely add more games to it as I get
 them and learn them.
 I'd like to say here that this project would not be possible if it were
 not for my wife Mary Beth who is providing indespensible help with
 reading the various screens and in general figuring things out for me so
 I can note them down.  I think she's hooked on the psp already lol.
 Anyhow, I will keep you guys posted on major work that is done on the
 project and I will let you know when I think it is good enough to give
 out to those who might want it.

 Best regards,

 Tom

The order of the buttons is not found on gamefaqs I asked Mary Beth to

 Hi

 I'm just curious, has anyone really tried messing around with the 
 saves from game faqs (it would be cool to show that off in tekkin! 
 hey, I got all those
 movies unlocked!). From what I hear you just unzip the save file, drop
 it
 onto the memory stick in the savegame folder and your golden. Not
sure,
 though.
 According to gamefaqs yes that is what you do.  I have not tried it
yet
 since I don't know enough about just playing the game so far.

 Anyway, tom, can you tell when the psp goes into sleep mode and when 
 it actually shuts off? I am not sure if mine is set up to work this 
 way or not, still fiddling with the power save menu settings.  One 
 thing, the psp makes a sound when it comes on which is great, but I 
 wish it made one when it shut off.  It is no big deal though you just 
 hold the switch up for about 3 to 4 seconds to be sure it is off.
Moreover, is half volume using headphones loud enough?
 Keep in mind volume will reduce battery life a lot if its not turned 
 low and of course you can turn the screen down too, since you 
 probbably don't need
 it grin.
 Of course this depends somewhat on what earphones you use and how
noisy
 the environment is where you are playing, I just am using some earbuds
 right now because that is what I have until I find something better,
but
 the volume seems more than adequate with it not turned up all the way.
 And yes I have the screen set on minimal brightness.
I wonder how multiplayer would work on it? Probably wouldn't be
 too accessible since it would display different things for each game, 
 for example, if a psp wasn't around, or if one was, it might give you 
 a yes no
 option to try again, or press x to cancel and go back to main menu
etc.
 I have no information on this yet as I do not know anyone else near me
 with a psp that I can experiment with.  I will report on this when and
 if I find out more information.
How about audio? Have you fooled around with that (From when I used it
 audio was
 about as smooth as you can hear, as smooth as a console).
 If you mean the game audio it is absolutely fantastic it is even good 
 through the dinky little speakers on the psp itself.  I am considering

 picking up some little portable speakers for use with it and some of 
 my other audio gadgets.
And how big are the games? I forget- I hear you can buy cases for them
 which I'll do. My
 birthdays in July, so I'll probably get one around then. What games to

 you have now for it? Not sure if I asked that.
 The little game disks are very small, a little smaller than a 3.5 inch
 floppy.  They seem to come in what looks like a dvd case that holds
the
 game and the manual.  The games I have so far are Tekken dark
 resurrection and dakster or however you spell that one.  I don't know
 anything about buying cases for the disks but I'd imagine you can.
And what are the order of buttons from left to right on the bottom? 
Oh,
 also, I forgot. I heard on some
 website or other that when you open the UMD drive it automatically 
 stops the game, but just don't hold it so the game would fall out

Heya Tyler.

Oh no worries man it's gonna get done, but it is going to take a lot of
time it is not going to be something we can do overnight this is a huge
project.  Mary Beth says we have just scratched the surface of those
menus in Tekken.  I am real glad she has the interest to help me out
with this project or it would not be happening.

This was kind of something I was hoping somebody had done when I decided
to get a psp but it does not seem like anyone has so I figure we ought
to do it to help others out as well as ourselves.  Once I get the basic
structure in place and once you actually have a psp to play with perhaps
if you get some other games besides tekken we can colaborate on this if
you have somebody who can help you out with the initial stuff.

Anyhow I'll keep you and the list posted as we go along.

 Hello fellow gamers.

 I am just writing to let you guys/gals know about a project I am 
 working on.  Basically what I am doing is to write up a detailed 
 description of at least some of the screens and menus that you run 
 into when using the psp and playing Tekken to make the unit more 
 useable for a blind gamer. What I have done so far is a description of

 what Sony calls the home menu, the menu that comes up when you either 
 turn the psp on with no game inserted or you exit a game via the home 
 key.  This is the menu you need to access to play music or movies and 
 whatnot on your psp.  Also, I have done a fairly detailed description 
 on the mode selecter menu in Tekken which is basically the menu you 
 get to if you start the game and hit the start button where you decide

 what kind of game you want to play and make various other changes and 
 pretty much everything else.  I am fairly sure I am going to have to 
 add quite a bit to this one before you will be able to really use a 
 lot of it by yourself, mainly descriptions of what to do in some of 
 the submenus.  Keep in mind that even when I am done with this, there 
 are parts that are going to either be really hard or require sighted 
 assistance such as doing your initial profile which you have to do the

 first time you start the game.  Lastly, I have described how to get 
 into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic moves and attacks 
 and so on.  The tutorial is actually pretty useful if you know what 
 order the different moves and stuff are presented. This project is 
 just starting and I am not going to give what I have out right now 
 until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I make sure 
 that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done without 
 sight.  The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus for 
 Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most interested

 in learning myself.  Since I am writing the stuff up for myself I am 
 hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other folks out 
 who may either have a psp already or are considering getting one.  As 
 I said this project is in its infancy right now and it will be a work 
 in progress, I will most likely add more games to it as I get them and

 learn them. I'd like to say here that this project would not be 
 possible if it were not for my wife Mary Beth who is providing 
 indespensible help with reading the various screens and in general 
 figuring things out for me so I can note them down.  I think she's 
 hooked on the psp already lol. Anyhow, I will keep you guys posted on 
 major work that is done on the project and I will let you know when I 
 think it is good enough to give out to those who might want it.

 Best regards,

 Tom

 Hey Tyler.

 Thanks for your thoughts and tips on the psp, keep em coming.  Oh yeah
 you can tell just from looking at the system that it is not something
 you want to be banging around even though it actually looks well
 constructed.  It is not flimsy or anything.

 Oh no worries I am not one of these people who beats heck out of their
 portable devices if anything I tend to baby them more than I absolutely
 need to.  My psp is absolutely in its case the minute I am not using it
 and that is where it stays until I take it out again.  From what I've
 read there's not much you can do about the fingerprints and such other
 than to not touch the screen which I am careful not to do, and to just
 keep some of those glasses cleaning cloths around and give your psp a
 wipe down every so often.

 Just to clarify, what I meant by the menus not being accessible is that
 you will have to do some memorizing, in order to use the other functions
 like music and movies, however the structure really does not look all
 that complicated and I am used to doing that sort of thing from using
 largely inaccessible ham radio gear.  Like you I do have other means of
 playing music so the psp will not be used really heavily for this,
 however the movies thing looks pretty cool if I can get it working.  Yes
 I read something about the buttons on the slim model being much more
 reliable I think it was on gamefaqs.

 Have a good day.

 Tom

 Hi there

 I just found out there is a slim model out which does have that
 thumb-into-the door design. This isn't a problem however, and you got
 the
 daxter pack btw. That's a good one, and yeah I agree- there's also a
 star
 wars one, which comes with a 32 mb memory stick which is good for saving

 games. Oh yeah. The psp is very prone to smudges and such, and be very
 careful (treat it as you would an ipod or something). This is not a toy.
 It
 is very fragile, the UMD drive being the most notable fragile thing.
 However
 the screen is very prone to losing pixils since its in LCD display, so
 be
 very careful with that (good job on the screen protector). I disagree
 there,
 actually, about the menu structure; think of it like thi.s Say you have
 the
 system settings on the leftmost side, you go right one and you have your

 music, right one more and you can browse the web or some such (this
 isn't
 from memory, its just an example).  Also I think you got the better
 deal-
 this is a slimmer psp and the buttons, apparently, have been aproved on.

 Hope this helps

 Hi

 I'm just curious, has anyone really tried messing around with the
 saves from game faqs (it would be cool to show that off in tekkin!
 hey, I got all those
 movies unlocked!). From what I hear you just unzip the save file, drop
 it
 onto the memory stick in the savegame folder and your golden. Not
 sure,
 though.
 According to gamefaqs yes that is what you do.  I have not tried it
 yet
 since I don't know enough about just playing the game so far.

 Anyway, tom, can you tell when the psp goes into sleep mode and when
 it actually shuts off? I am not sure if mine is set up to work this
 way or not, still fiddling with the power save menu settings.  One
 thing, the psp makes a sound when it comes on which is great, but I
 wish it made one when it shut off.  It is no big deal though you just
 hold the switch up for about 3 to 4 seconds to be sure it is off.
Moreover, is half volume using headphones loud enough?
 Keep in mind volume will reduce battery life a lot if its not turned
 low and of course you can turn the screen down too, since you
 probbably don't need
 it grin.
 Of course this depends somewhat on what earphones you use and how
 noisy
 the environment is where you are playing, I just am using some earbuds
 right now because that is what I have until I find something better,
 but
 the volume seems more than adequate with it not turned up all the way.
 And yes I have the screen set on minimal brightness.
I wonder how multiplayer would work on it? Probably wouldn't be
 too accessible since it would display different things for each game,
 for example, if a psp wasn't around, or if one was, it might give you
 a yes no
 option to try again, or press x to cancel and go back to main menu
 etc.
 I have no information on this yet as I do not know anyone else near me
 with a psp that I can experiment with.  I will report on this when and
 if I find out more information.
How about audio? Have you fooled around with that (From when I used it
 audio was
 about as smooth as you can hear, as smooth as a console).
 If you mean the game audio it is absolutely fantastic it is even good
 through the dinky little speakers on the psp itself.  I am considering

 picking up some little portable speakers for use with it and some of
 my other audio gadgets.

Hey Tyler.

I described the buttons from left to right as you requested.  Here is
the info that I have about transferring game saves as taken directly
from the psp hardware faq.
Q: Can game saves be e-mailed to other people?
A: Definitely. Since the PSP memory stick duo or pro duo communicates 
with a PC, you can bring over saved game data to your PC and then email 
it to a friend. I have done this myself, and there have been no 
problems whatsoever. GameFAQs and other PSP sites host PSP game saves
for gamers to download. 
He does not give specifics as to what file/folder you need to move but I
am pretty sure we can probably figure it out.

 Howdy Tyler and all.

 Yeah the buttons are fine to work with once you get used to them they 
 are a bit small so if you don't like small buttons you are going to 
 have trouble.  I don't mind them at all.

 The order of the buttons is not found on gamefaqs I asked Mary Beth to

 describe them.

 Hope this helps.

 Hi

 Are those buttons from left to right?
 Do you find the buttons easy to work with? (the bottom ones that is). 
 I'm not sure what else to ask right now. I'm way too tired, but I'll 
 hopefully come up with more, hehe. Btw, where exactly did you read 
 that on gamefaqs? I didn't find it there?

 Hi

 I'm just curious, has anyone really tried messing around with the 
 saves from game faqs (it would be cool to show that off in tekkin! 
 hey, I got all those movies unlocked!). From what I hear you just 
 unzip the save file, drop it
 onto the memory stick in the savegame folder and your golden. Not
 sure,
 though.
 According to gamefaqs yes that is what you do.  I have not tried it
 yet
 since I don't know enough about just playing the game so far.

 Anyway, tom, can you tell when the psp goes into sleep mode and when 
 it actually shuts off? I am not sure if mine is set up to work this 
 way or not, still fiddling with the power save menu settings.  One 
 thing, the psp makes a sound when it comes on which is great, but I 
 wish it made one when it shut off.  It is no big deal though you just

 hold the switch up for about 3 to 4 seconds to be sure it is off.
Moreover, is half volume using headphones loud enough?
 Keep in mind volume will reduce battery life a lot if its not turned 
 low and of course you can turn the screen down too, since you 
 probbably don't need it grin.
 Of course this depends somewhat on what earphones you use and how
 noisy
 the environment is where you are playing, I just am using some 
 earbuds right now because that is what I have until I find something 
 better,
 but
 the volume seems more than adequate with it not turned up all the 
 way. And yes I have the screen set on minimal brightness.
I wonder how multiplayer would work on it? Probably wouldn't be
 too accessible since it would display different things for each game,

 for example, if a psp wasn't around, or if one

 Heya Tyler.

 Oh no worries man it's gonna get done, but it is going to take a lot of
 time it is not going to be something we can do overnight this is a huge
 project.  Mary Beth says we have just scratched the surface of those
 menus in Tekken.  I am real glad she has the interest to help me out
 with this project or it would not be happening.

 This was kind of something I was hoping somebody had done when I decided
 to get a psp but it does not seem like anyone has so I figure we ought
 to do it to help others out as well as ourselves.  Once I get the basic
 structure in place and once you actually have a psp to play with perhaps
 if you get some other games besides tekken we can colaborate on this if
 you have somebody who can help you out with the initial stuff.

 Anyhow I'll keep you and the list posted as we go along.

 Tom

 Hello fellow gamers.

 I am just writing to let you guys/gals know about a project I am
 working on.  Basically what I am doing is to write up a detailed
 description of at least some of the screens and menus that you run
 into when using the psp and playing Tekken to make the unit more
 useable for a blind gamer. What I have done so far is a description of

 what Sony calls the home menu, the menu that comes up when you either
 turn the psp on with no game inserted or you exit a game via the home
 key.  This is the menu you need to access to play music or movies and
 whatnot on your psp.  Also, I have done a fairly detailed description
 on the mode selecter menu in Tekken which is basically the menu you
 get to if you start the game and hit the start button where you decide

 what kind of game you want to play and make various other changes and
 pretty much everything else.  I am fairly sure I am going to have to
 add quite a bit to this one before you will be able to really use a
 lot of it by yourself, mainly descriptions of what to do in some of
 the submenus.  Keep in mind that even when I am done with this, there
 are parts that are going to either be really hard or require sighted
 assistance such as doing your initial profile which you have to do the

 first time you start the game.  Lastly, I have described how to get
 into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic moves and attacks
 and so on.  The tutorial is actually pretty useful if you know what
 order the different moves and stuff are presented. This project is
 just starting and I am not going to give what I have out right now
 until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I make sure
 that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done without
 sight.  The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus for
 Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most interested

 in learning myself.  Since I am writing the stuff up for myself I am
 hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other folks out
 who may either have a psp already or are considering getting one.  As
 I said this project is in its

Hi,

Well I don't know enough to say that it is impossible to do this from a
technical standpoint, however I must say I think it is very very very
unlikely that anyone will take this on.  Also, I suspect that even if
somebody did make some kind of thing akin to rock box for the psp's home
menu I suspect that this still wound not help us once you actually
started a game.  I agree it's a cool thing to dream about though smile

 spinning but is there more to it than that?

 am sure not everyone is interested in the nitty gritty of how to use

Hey Tyler.

Thanks for your thoughts and tips on the psp, keep em coming.  Oh yeah
you can tell just from looking at the system that it is not something
you want to be banging around even though it actually looks well
constructed.  It is not flimsy or anything.

Oh no worries I am not one of these people who beats heck out of their
portable devices if anything I tend to baby them more than I absolutely
need to.  My psp is absolutely in its case the minute I am not using it
and that is where it stays until I take it out again.  From what I've
read there's not much you can do about the fingerprints and such other
than to not touch the screen which I am careful not to do, and to just
keep some of those glasses cleaning cloths around and give your psp a
wipe down every so often.

Just to clarify, what I meant by the menus not being accessible is that
you will have to do some memorizing, in order to use the other functions
like music and movies, however the structure really does not look all
that complicated and I am used to doing that sort of thing from using
largely inaccessible ham radio gear.  Like you I do have other means of
playing music so the psp will not be used really heavily for this,
however the movies thing looks pretty cool if I can get it working.  Yes
I read something about the buttons on the slim model being much more
reliable I think it was on gamefaqs.

Have a good day.

Hi there

I just found out there is a slim model out which does have that 
thumb-into-the door design. This isn't a problem however, and you got
the 
daxter pack btw. That's a good one, and yeah I agree- there's also a
star 
wars one, which comes with a 32 mb memory stick which is good for saving

games. Oh yeah. The psp is very prone to smudges and such, and be very 
careful (treat it as you would an ipod or something). This is not a toy.
It 
is very fragile, the UMD drive being the most notable fragile thing.
However 
the screen is very prone to losing pixils since its in LCD display, so
be 
very careful with that (good job on the screen protector). I disagree
there, 
actually, about the menu structure; think of it like thi.s Say you have
the 
system settings on the leftmost side, you go right one and you have your

music, right one more and you can browse the web or some such (this
isn't 
from memory, its just an example).  Also I think you got the better
deal- 
this is a slimmer psp and the buttons, apparently, have been aproved on.

Hope this helps

 Hi there

 I just found out there is a slim model out which does have that
 thumb-into-the door design. This isn't a problem however, and you got
 the
 daxter pack btw. That's a good one, and yeah I agree- there's also a
 star
 wars one, which comes with a 32 mb memory stick which is good for saving

 games. Oh yeah. The psp is very prone to smudges and such, and be very
 careful (treat it as you would an ipod or something). This is not a toy.
 It
 is very fragile, the UMD drive being the most notable fragile thing.
 However
 the screen is very prone to losing pixils since its in LCD display, so
 be
 very careful with that (good job on the screen protector). I disagree
 there,
 actually, about the menu structure; think of it like thi.s Say you have
 the
 system settings on the leftmost side, you go right one and you have your

 music, right one more and you can browse the web or some such (this
 isn't
 from memory, its just an example).  Also I think you got the better
 deal-
 this is a slimmer psp and the buttons, apparently, have been aproved on.

 Hope this helps

Hi

I'm just curious, has anyone really tried messing around with the saves from 
game faqs (it would be cool to show that off in tekkin! hey, I got all those 
movies unlocked!). From what I hear you just unzip the save file, drop it 
onto the memory stick in the savegame folder and your golden. Not sure, 
though.

Anyway, tom, can you tell when the psp goes into sleep mode and when it 
actually shuts off? Moreover, is half volume using headphones loud enough? 
Keep in mind volume will reduce battery life a lot if its not turned low and 
of course you can turn the screen down too, since you probbably don't need 
it grin. I wonder how multiplayer would work on it? Probably wouldn't be 
too accessible since it would display different things for each game, for 
example, if a psp wasn't around, or if one was, it might give you a yes no 
option to try again, or press x to cancel and go back to main menu etc. How 
about audio? Have you fooled around with that (From when I used it audio was 
about as smooth as you can hear, as smooth as a console). And how big are 
the games? I forget- I hear you can buy cases for them which I'll do. My 
birthdays in July, so I'll probably get one around then. What games to you 
have now for it? Not sure if I asked that. And what are the order of buttons 
from left to right on the bottom? Oh, also, I forgot. I heard on some 
website or other that when you open the UMD drive it automatically stops the 
game, but just don't hold it so the game would fall out (there used to be a 
rumor of a psp UMD disc flying out of the system, but this was false, just 
use common sense). How do you find load times? Are they an issue? I heard 
they are for mortal kombat. I also hear the battery is smaller for the 
slimmer model. How do you find runtime? Keep in mind these are questions you 
can answer later, but these are just some things that I'm curious about from 
a blind persons perspective.

 Hey Tyler.

 Thanks for your thoughts and tips on the psp, keep em coming.  Oh yeah
 you can tell just from looking at the system that it is not something
 you want to be banging around even though it actually looks well
 constructed.  It is not flimsy or anything.

 Oh no worries I am not one of these people who beats heck out of their
 portable devices if anything I tend to baby them more than I absolutely
 need to.  My psp is absolutely in its case the minute I am not using it
 and that is where it stays until I take it out again.  From what I've
 read there's not much you can do about the fingerprints and such other
 than to not touch the screen which I am careful not to do, and to just
 keep some of those glasses cleaning cloths around and give your psp a
 wipe down every so often.

 Just to clarify, what I meant by the menus not being accessible is that
 you will have to do some memorizing, in order to use the other functions

According to gamefaqs yes that is what you do.  I have not tried it yet
since I don't know enough about just playing the game so far.

Anyway, tom, can you tell when the psp goes into sleep mode and when it 
actually shuts off?
I am not sure if mine is set up to work this way or not, still fiddling
with the power save menu settings.  One thing, the psp makes a sound
when it comes on which is great, but I wish it made one when it shut
off.  It is no big deal though you just hold the switch up for about 3
to 4 seconds to be sure it is off.
Moreover, is half volume using headphones loud enough? 
Keep in mind volume will reduce battery life a lot if its not turned low
and 
of course you can turn the screen down too, since you probbably don't
need 
it grin.
Of course this depends somewhat on what earphones you use and how noisy
the environment is where you are playing, I just am using some earbuds
right now because that is what I have until I find something better, but
the volume seems more than adequate with it not turned up all the way.
And yes I have the screen set on minimal brightness.
I wonder how multiplayer would work on it? Probably wouldn't be 
too accessible since it would display different things for each game,
for 
example, if a psp wasn't around, or if one was, it might give you a yes
no

I have no information on this yet as I do not know anyone else near me
with a psp that I can experiment with.  I will report on this when and
if I find out more information.
How about audio? Have you fooled around with that (From when I used it
audio was 
about as smooth as you can hear, as smooth as a console).
If you mean the game audio it is absolutely fantastic it is even good
through the dinky little speakers on the psp itself.  I am considering
picking up some little portable speakers for use with it and some of my
other audio gadgets.
And how big are the games? I forget- I hear you can buy cases for them
which I'll do. My 
birthdays in July, so I'll probably get one around then. What games to
you 
have now for it? Not sure if I asked that.
The little game disks are very small, a little smaller than a 3.5 inch
floppy.  They seem to come in what looks like a dvd case that holds the
game and the manual.  The games I have so far are Tekken dark
resurrection and dakster or however you spell that one.  I don't know
anything about buying cases for the disks but I'd imagine you can.
And what are the order of buttons from left to right on the bottom? Oh,
also, I forgot. I heard on some

The buttons on the bottom of the unit are as follows:
Home
Volume down
Volume up
Brightness
Music
Select
start
How do you find load times? Are they an issue? I heard 
they are for mortal kombat. I also hear the battery is smaller for the 
slimmer model. How do you find runtime? Keep in mind these are questions

Well as far as Tekken the load times seem very excellent considering you
are playing from what amounts to a cd/dvd.  I am very impressed with it
so far and they are not an issue for me at this point.  I cannot comment
about the battery since mine is the only one I have ever seen.  Run time
is excellent.  They say it should last five to six hours and that is
what I have gotten so far and that is with a umd based game which eats
power.  Again I am very impressed with the run time and it delivers what
it promises.

[Audyssey] Psp project in the works.

Hello fellow gamers.

I am just writing to let you guys/gals know about a project I am working
on.  Basically what I am doing is to write up a detailed description of
at least some of the screens and menus that you run into when using the
psp and playing Tekken to make the unit more useable for a blind gamer.
What I have done so far is a description of what Sony calls the home
menu, the menu that comes up when you either turn the psp on with no
game inserted or you exit a game via the home key.  This is the menu you
need to access to play music or movies and whatnot on your psp.  Also, I
have done a fairly detailed description on the mode selecter menu in
Tekken which is basically the menu you get to if you start the game and
hit the start button where you decide what kind of game you want to play
and make various other changes and pretty much everything else.  I am
fairly sure I am going to have to add quite a bit to this one before you
will be able to really use a lot of it by yourself, mainly descriptions
of what to do in some of the submenus.  Keep in mind that even when I am
done with this, there are parts that are going to either be really hard
or require sighted assistance such as doing your initial profile which
you have to do the first time you start the game.  Lastly, I have
described how to get into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic
moves and attacks and so on.  The tutorial is actually pretty useful if
you know what order the different moves and stuff are presented.
This project is just starting and I am not going to give what I have out
right now until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I
make sure that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done
without sight.  The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus
for Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most
interested in learning myself.  Since I am writing the stuff up for
myself I am hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other
folks out who may either have a psp already or are considering getting
one.  As I said this project is in its infancy right now and it will be
a work in progress, I will most likely add more games to it as I get
them and learn them.
I'd like to say here that this project would not be possible if it were
not for my wife Mary Beth who is providing indespensible help with
reading the various screens and in general figuring things out for me so
I can note them down.  I think she's hooked on the psp already lol.
Anyhow, I will keep you guys posted on major work that is done on the
project and I will let you know when I think it is good enough to give
out to those who might want it.

Best regards,

Tom

 done with this, there are parts that are going to either be really hard
 or require sighted assistance such as doing your initial profile which
 you have to do the first time you start the game.  Lastly, I have
 described how to get into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic
 moves and attacks and so on.  The tutorial is actually pretty useful if
 you know what order the different moves and stuff are presented.
 This project is just starting and I am not going to give what I have out
 right now until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I
 make sure that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done
 without sight.  The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus
 for Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most
 interested in learning myself.  Since I am writing the stuff up for
 myself I am hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other
 folks out who may either have a psp already or are considering getting
 one.  As I said this project is in its infancy right now and it will be
 a work in progress, I will most likely add more games to it as I get
 them and learn them.
 I'd like to say here that this project would not be possible if it were
 not for my wife Mary Beth who is providing indespensible help with
 reading the various screens and in general figuring things out for me so
 I can note them down.  I think she's hooked on the psp already lol.
 Anyhow, I will keep you guys posted on major work that is done on the
 project and I will let you know when I think it is good enough to give
 out to those who might want it.

 Best regards,

 Tom

Re: [Audyssey] psp gaming

2008-05-02 Thread constantine (on laptop)
Hi there

I just found out there is a slim model out which does have that 
thumb-into-the door design. This isn't a problem however, and you got the 
daxter pack btw. That's a good one, and yeah I agree- there's also a star 
wars one, which comes with a 32 mb memory stick which is good for saving 
games. Oh yeah. The psp is very prone to smudges and such, and be very 
careful (treat it as you would an ipod or something). This is not a toy. It 
is very fragile, the UMD drive being the most notable fragile thing. However 
the screen is very prone to losing pixils since its in LCD display, so be 
very careful with that (good job on the screen protector). I disagree there, 
actually, about the menu structure; think of it like thi.s Say you have the 
system settings on the leftmost side, you go right one and you have your 
music, right one more and you can browse the web or some such (this isn't 
from memory, its just an example).  Also I think you got the better deal- 
this is a slimmer psp and the buttons, apparently, have been aproved on.

Hope this helps

Have a good day from Tyler C. Wood!

 Heya Tyler and all.

 Well today I went out and, as my mother used to say spent money like a
 drunken sailor lol.  Fortunately it was money I have been saving for
 just such a frivolous shopping spree.  I went ahead and picked up a psp
 system one of the package deals.  I did some serious thinking about the
 point you raised about buying new versus used with these newer systems
 and although sure I could have saved money in the short run it very well
 might cost more in the long run.  I am very glad I did now that I see
 that little drive on the back, somebody could jack that up without there
 being any visible sign of it or they might not even know it and then
 you've got an expensive paperweight.  I am afraid I did not get as good
 a price as you quote however the package I got came with a 1gb memory
 stick in case I want to screw around with the music and/or movies.  I
 know the menus are not accessible of course but my wife is willing to
 help me out with it even though she thinks I'm nuts for spending the
 money, so that is great.  In fact she is out trying to set the time zone
 and other junk that you have to set before you can do anything else.  I
 also picked up a protective case and screen protector for it to help
 keep it looking nice.  For some reason this one did not come with the
 cleaning cloth but I have several of those around here you can just use
 the kind that are made for cleaning glasses according to gamefaqs they
 are supposed to work fine.

 The package also came with some family guy episodes or something on UMD
 which I have no interest in whatsoever and will probably try to unload
 on somebody who wants it, and a game called daxster which I know
 absolutely nothing about.  I'll probably take a look around on gamefaqs
 and see if I can find something on it.

 Thanks very much for the very detailed description you gave of the
 system.  That is an awesome job particularly when you do not have your
 hands on one at the moment.  The only discripancy I have found so far is
 where you say there is a button on the back edge of the unit to open the
 umd drive, I do not find a button there is just a little detent in the
 case so you can get a fingertip under the right corner of the door.  I
 will have my wife check out all the buttons to see if one of them is an
 eject button I would think you'd want one as you would not want to just
 open that door when the drive is going.

 Well that's about all for now I am too tired to fool with it much
 tonight got it out and got it charged up so will have at it tomorrow.

 Best regards,

 Tom

Yes, burnout legends sound good (it sounds like burnout 3 which I totally 
love for the ps2!). Mortal kombat: unchained is also somewhat accessible- 
the endurance most sounds really great. Also I recommend taking a look at 
some various fighting games such as vutiful joe (sorry if I'm not spelling 
that right).  I can't wait to get a psp of my own, though my ipod will be my 
music player (oh btw to you guys who are wondering, buy sandisc memory 
sticks- they are like ten times cheaper than sonies (well not really, but 
you get the point).

 Howdy Jose thanks for the good wishes.  Yeah I am pretty pumped up about
 this it is the first brand spanking new system I have bought since I
 bought my Atari 2600 when I was in high school around 1981 or so.  I am
 going to go buy Tekken tomorrow after work, good news I found out I have
 an EB games right down the street from me.  Or on second thought it
 might be bad news I don't know, lol.  Anyhow if you have some tips for
 us on using the psp in general I'd be more than glad to know them.  One
 question I have which seems rather stupid but I think may be important
 is how do you properly take a umd out of the system when you have been
 playing it, from the docs I have found online it sounds as if you
 probably just hit the home button to go to the home menu and that should
 stop the game and therefore the disk spinning but is there more to it
 than that?

 If we get too much into this I suppose we should take it off list, I am
 sure not everyone is interested in the nitty gritty of how to use the

 am at it, have you found any other games besides tekken that we can play

Re: [Audyssey] psp gaming

2008-05-02 Thread constantine (on laptop)
Right, push the power / hold button up for about 2 seconds to put it to 
sleep. The thing I really like about this is its similar to a laptop in that 
when you push that there button forward again, it comes out of standby, and 
basically puts you back where you were, without using very much battery. 
Since I haven't used it in a while, I might be very mistaken here. However 
you say street fighter is accessible? Oh my! I read a review of it and it 
sounds great. Also tom, try and go used. You'll get games much cheaper, but 
try and get them with user manuals if at all possible.

Hope that helps

 Hi Tom.

 No, I'm not jose. I'm Clement. But I figured I'd answer these questions
 anyway... as I'm a psp boy myself. lol.
 Games we can play... there's a list below.

 Mortal Kombat: Unchained
 Darkstalkers Chronicle: Chaos Tower
 Streetfighter Alpha 3 max

 There are a lot of other games that are playable. Sports games mainly, but
 as I mainly tend to focuss on fighting and action games those are probably
 the best guarantees I have for you. The rest are all beat em ups or hack 
 and
 slashes, so I can't guarantee anything. If you need more just let me know.
 Regards to the UMD, you don't even need to press the home button. All you
 actually need to do is turn the psp off then eject it.

Yepper, that would be correct. I'm not sure which is better, but I have a

let that stop you from playing it- just don't go bashing it around (I'm sure

Hey, Tom that is cool! I got a psp of my own. The game that came with it is 
not accessible I tried playing no go. I really don't care for the Family guy 
movie. I got a lot of music on the memory stick. I like my psp. Actually it 
is accessible once you get the hang of it. No it doesn't talk but you can 
count the clicks to get to the music or the movie stuff.

 Heya Tyler and all.

 Well today I went out and, as my mother used to say spent money like a
 drunken sailor lol.  Fortunately it was money I have been saving for
 just such a frivolous shopping spree.  I went ahead and picked up a psp
 system one of the package deals.  I did some serious thinking about the
 point you raised about buying new versus used with these newer systems
 and although sure I could have saved money in the short run it very well
 might cost more in the long run.  I am very glad I did now that I see
 that little drive on the back, somebody could jack that up without there
 being any visible sign of it or they might not even know it and then
 you've got an expensive paperweight.  I am afraid I did not get as good
 a price as you quote however the package I got came with a 1gb memory
 stick in case I want to screw around with the music and/or movies.  I
 know the menus are not accessible of course but my wife is willing to
 help me out with it even though she thinks I'm nuts for spending the
 money, so that is great.  In fact she is out trying to set the time zone
 and other junk that you have to set before you can do anything else.  I
 also picked up a protective case and screen protector for it to help
 keep it looking nice.  For some reason this one did not come with the
 cleaning cloth but I have several of those around here you can just use
 the kind that are made for cleaning glasses according to gamefaqs they
 are supposed to work fine.

 The package also came with some family guy episodes or something on UMD
 which I have no interest in whatsoever and will probably try to unload
 on somebody who wants it, and a game called daxster which I know
 absolutely nothing about.  I'll probably take a look around on gamefaqs
 and see if I can find something on it.

 Thanks very much for the very detailed description you gave of the
 system.  That is an awesome job particularly when you do not have your
 hands on one at the moment.  The only discripancy I have found so far is
 where you say there is a button on the back edge of the unit to open the
 umd drive, I do not find a button there is just a little detent in the
 case so you can get a fingertip under the right corner of the door.  I
 will have my wife check out all the buttons to see if one of them is an
 eject button I would think you'd want one as you would not want to just
 open that door when the drive is going.

 Well that's about all for now I am too tired to fool with it much
 tonight got it out and got it charged up so will have at it tomorrow.

 Best regards,

 Tom

Howdy Jose thanks for the good wishes.  Yeah I am pretty pumped up about
this it is the first brand spanking new system I have bought since I
bought my Atari 2600 when I was in high school around 1981 or so.  I am
going to go buy Tekken tomorrow after work, good news I found out I have
an EB games right down the street from me.  Or on second thought it
might be bad news I don't know, lol.  Anyhow if you have some tips for
us on using the psp in general I'd be more than glad to know them.  One
question I have which seems rather stupid but I think may be important
is how do you properly take a umd out of the system when you have been
playing it, from the docs I have found online it sounds as if you
probably just hit the home button to go to the home menu and that should
stop the game and therefore the disk spinning but is there more to it
than that?

If we get too much into this I suppose we should take it off list, I am
sure not everyone is interested in the nitty gritty of how to use the
psp game playing tips and thoughts and experiences and so on.  While I
am at it, have you found any other games besides tekken that we can play
pretty well, several have been mentioned which I find very encouraging
but unfortunately I did not write them down as I had not temporarily
gone nuts and decided to run out and buy one yet.

Hi Tom.

No, I'm not jose. I'm Clement. But I figured I'd answer these questions 
anyway... as I'm a psp boy myself. lol.
Games we can play... there's a list below.

Mortal Kombat: Unchained
Darkstalkers Chronicle: Chaos Tower
Streetfighter Alpha 3 max

There are a lot of other games that are playable. Sports games mainly, but 
as I mainly tend to focuss on fighting and action games those are probably 
the best guarantees I have for you. The rest are all beat em ups or hack and 
slashes, so I can't guarantee anything. If you need more just let me know.
Regards to the UMD, you don't even need to press the home button. All you 
actually need to do is turn the psp off then eject it.

responding and for the list of good titles.  Just so I am absolutely

Re: [Audyssey] psp gaming

2008-04-28 Thread constantine (on laptop)
Heya

Right, I saw a PSP going for 149 dollars. the value pack that is. That's 
pretty good- I mean sure you can get used for cheaper, but in this case if 
something goes wrong you can return the system. New games retail for $24 or 
so. Some games I can recommend are tekin: dark reserection and, I think 
there's tekin 2 out right now, though I just saw that myself. I played 
tekin:dark reserections and found it quite accessible. It reads most things 
out and stuff, not the menus, but the characters. Menus you may need sited 
help with. The value pack comes with a 32 mb memory stick, which is huge in 
terms of game saves, and I doubt you'd use this for music because it would 
be hard to memorize the menus in terms of getting to the music. However, I'm 
currently in the market for a psp, and if I do get one before you do, I'll 
let you know how I like it. Furthermore, if you do by chance get one, let me 
know what you think of it. I was personally awed when I first laid hands on 
it. Its got half decent sound from the speakers. Also the UMD (universal 
media discs) don't scratch at all due to being covered with a protective 
plastic for when your on the go. I don't care for the buttons on the bottom 
(brightness, volume etc), those may take some getting used to. But overal I 
think the  setbacks are minor. Not to mention you'll look really cool 
hauling it out (No offense or anything but, the lynx is a bit old, not that 
I don't like old systems, I love them). Its sleek and, for theose of you who 
haven't seen one, its basically like this:

Your UMD discs come out the back in a little door, and on the bottom, on the 
top, you have your volume buttons for up and down, start button, select 
button, brightness and sound buttons. On the right hand side you have your 
power/hold button. This is a sort of switch. You push it up and hold it for 
a few seconds to put the unit in standby mode, and hold it a bit longer to 
put it to sleep. Then push it up again to power it on. Pushing it down will 
put the system in hold for those people who listen to music. The left hand 
side has a switch for wireless on or off, its a little switch. Now most 
people wont mess with this, and it saves battery, so I'd turn this off if I 
were you. On the top edge of the unit you have your USB port, memory stick 
slot and UMD open button, also I think you have your AC connector and 
headphone jack here. On the face of the unit you have your screen, and a nub 
which is basically the psp's version of the dualshocks joystick. Avove that 
is your d-pad, and of course you have x, square, circle and triangle. You 
also have 2 shoulder buttons, though sadly only l and r. This unit I hear, 
smudges rather easily, which is why I recommend the value pack which comes 
with a cleaning cloth. The screen can also scratch. I'm guessing these 
aren't issues, but if you want to look flashy, just lettin you know.

I hope that helps someone. Also gamefaqs has great FAQS on the system if you 
want to get into the nitty gritty.

umd drive, I do not find a button there is just a little detent in the
case so you can get a fingertip under the right corner of the door.  I
will have my wife check out all the buttons to see if one of them is an
eject button I would think you'd want one as you would not want to just
open that door when the drive is going.

Well that's about all for now I am too tired to fool with it much
tonight got it out and got it charged up so will have at it tomorrow.

Best regards,

Tom

Hello again, what is this eb games?  I have not heard of it before.  I
am rather out of the loop as far as buying mainstream games goes because
up until now I have specialized in pretty ancient systems where you
picked the games up at yard sales or specialty type stores like the goat
store.  I've decided to bite the bullet and pick up a psp so am now
currently looking.  Man those things move quick on crigslist.  Called a
guy about an ad that went up today and somebody was already on their way
over to pick it up.

Anyhow any info is appreciated.

Hi there

I just saw somewhere someone was using windows xp on a ps3. Man, I can't 
believe it! It would be cool if we could use jaws on a home console. Then, 
perhaps, play a game or two on it- doubtful but possible.

Anyway, I think I'm going to ask for a psp for my birthday. With teckin, of 
course. I'm such an idiot for selling my ps2. I love teckin.

King is my favorite character, just the way he sounds. For those with a bit 
of vission, any idea what king looks like and is he featured on the psp?

 Hi Tom.
 I have not been blind since birth so I did have just about every console 
 out
 until the last generation, which fell into the period when I lost the rest
 of my sight completely, so I was out of touch with consoles for a while.
 I think I may have the advantage that I know the set up of most consoles 
 by
 heart, i.e. the menues and stuff, so I know where to go most times.

 on psp, for example it is a little try and error most times, but most 
 games
 for it are very straight forward, menuewise.
 in tekken once you managed to get thru the basic menue points it will say 
 a
 lot about the happenings on the scree, like selct yout character, et
 cetera. When you do play mainstream console games, that are of course 
 aimed
 at sighted gamers, you will encounter obstacles and the game experience 
 will
 and cannot ever be the same one for us, that a sighted gamer has.
 if you keep that in mind, then you are all set:)
 still I think that on some games I can get enough enjoyment out of it to
 justify buying them. I buy used ones  most times anyways.

 With those games it is mostly about learning the layout and the sounds of 
 a
 game to get anywhere. Tekken for example is pretty good to learn when you
 are patient enough to take the time.
 I even win quite a lot of fights, even in higher stages :)

 So I guess it is up to the individual how bad you want to take a shot at
 those games. Some do have awesome storylines and sounds, which I really
 enjoy.
 I so want to try and play the new God of war for psp, even if it is just 
 for
 the story and sounds, I have to say what people say about its 
 accessibility.
 I guess since it is an adventure hack and slay game, it will be kind of 
 hard
 to figure out.
 Like you said the psp has the advantage that you can store all kinds of 
 data
 as well as music on it.
 Who knows maybe some soul will eventually go thru the trouble and develop
 some kind of screenreader for a handheld console, like my talks that I 
 have
 in my phone. Would be too cool, I guess the market is way too small for 
 this
 too happen, at least for a reasonable price.
 Anyway I am happy with my psp and do not regret the purchase at all.

 well, those are some of my thoughts, have a great day!

 take care
 chrissy

 Thanks for the informative response Chrissy.

 Oh yes I am very well aware that these mainstream games are largely not
 going to be playable by us to the same degree as a sighted person and we
 are for the most part not going to be very competetive to our sighted
 friends on them.  That is not particularly important to me what is
 important is that I can at least tell what is going on and what I am
 doing enough so that I do not get completely fed up and quit, something
 that I don't do very easily.  I've been blind since birth myself,
 however I had no blind friends when I was growing up, I hung out with
 the sighted kids and wanted to play the games that my friends were
 playing on their Atari 2600's and all that, , for that reason I've been
 fooling around with mainstream games for 20 plus years, I'm very
 experienced with mainstream consoles up to the NES and the Nintendo 64
 but I basically gave up trying to keep up with them after that.

 The more I hear about this system the more interesting it seems.  Like I
 say I think I am gonna see if one of my nephew's buddies has one that he
 will let me check out, either that or I suppose I could just go to a
 store and try to check one out there.  Your point about buying used
 games is a very good one and I would definitely go that route if I do
 decide to pick one of these things up which I am definitely seriously
 considering.

 Later days,

 Tom

Hi Chrissy:

I totally have to agree.  It's also nice at least here in the US I can rent 
games from a company called game fly, so I'm able to try out the games and 
if I like them I can keep them.  It works out pretty well for the most part.
A lot of gaming is trial and error, but I think it's worth it in the long 
run.

 Hi Tom.
 I have not been blind since birth so I did have just about every console 
 out
 until the last generation, which fell into the period when I lost the rest
 of my sight completely, so I was out of touch with consoles for a while.
 I think I may have the advantage that I know the set up of most consoles 
 by
 heart, i.e. the menues and stuff, so I know where to go most times.

 on psp, for example it is a little try and error most times, but most 
 games
 for it are very straight forward, menuewise.
 in tekken once you managed to get thru the basic menue points it will say 
 a
 lot about the happenings on the scree, like selct yout character, et
 cetera. When you do play mainstream console games, that are of course 
 aimed
 at sighted gamers, you will encounter obstacles and the game experience 
 will
 and cannot ever be the same one for us, that a sighted gamer has.
 if you keep that in mind, then you are all set:)
 still I think that on some games I can get enough enjoyment out of it to
 justify buying them. I buy used ones  most times anyways.

 With those games it is mostly about learning the layout and the sounds of 
 a
 game to get anywhere. Tekken for example is pretty good to learn when you
 are patient enough to take the time.
 I even win quite a lot of fights, even in higher stages :)

 So I guess it is up to the individual how bad you want to take a shot at
 those games. Some do have awesome storylines and sounds, which I really
 enjoy.
 I so want to try and play the new God of war for psp, even if it is just 
 for
 the story and sounds, I have to say what people say about its 
 accessibility.
 I guess since it is an adventure hack and slay game, it will be kind of 
 hard
 to figure out.
 Like you said the psp has the advantage that you can store all kinds of 
 data
 as well as music on it.
 Who knows maybe some soul will eventually go thru the trouble and develop
 some kind of screenreader for a handheld console, like my talks that I 
 have

Re: [Audyssey] psp gaming

2008-04-25 Thread Tom Randall
Thanks for the informative response Chrissy.

Oh yes I am very well aware that these mainstream games are largely not
going to be playable by us to the same degree as a sighted person and we
are for the most part not going to be very competetive to our sighted
friends on them.  That is not particularly important to me what is
important is that I can at least tell what is going on and what I am
doing enough so that I do not get completely fed up and quit, something
that I don't do very easily.  I've been blind since birth myself,
however I had no blind friends when I was growing up, I hung out with
the sighted kids and wanted to play the games that my friends were
playing on their Atari 2600's and all that, , for that reason I've been
fooling around with mainstream games for 20 plus years, I'm very
experienced with mainstream consoles up to the NES and the Nintendo 64
but I basically gave up trying to keep up with them after that.

The more I hear about this system the more interesting it seems.  Like I
say I think I am gonna see if one of my nephew's buddies has one that he
will let me check out, either that or I suppose I could just go to a
store and try to check one out there.  Your point about buying used
games is a very good one and I would definitely go that route if I do
decide to pick one of these things up which I am definitely seriously
considering.

Later days,

Tom

Re: [Audyssey] psp gaming

2008-04-24 Thread Tom Randall
Hi Chrissy and all.

I'm majorly behind on this list.  It's funny that you bring up the psp I
was doing some looking around on craigslist and other places and saw
some systems people had up for sale for what seemed to me to be pretty
good prices for what you got.  I am actually thinking about getting
another portable system to go along with my good old Atari Lynx.  Since
a few of you seem to have a pretty good experience with the psp I have
been doing some reading on gamefaqs and elsewhere about it and it
definitely seems to be a really cool system.  I really like the ability
you seem to have to do other things besides game playing like watch
movies and listen to music on it.  Of course the info on there is not
going to help us in terms of ways to work the system and play games
which is what this list is great for.  I know a couple of you have
talked about doing some podcasts on mainstream consoles and I think this
would be really cool both for people who may not have considered playing
on a mainstream console and for those of us who are not real familiar
with the good and bad points of the new ones.

For now though, if anyone would like to give me some comments either on
or off list about the psp in particular I would be really interested to
hear them.  I am interested to hear if you are able to start games by
yourself with or without sighted assistance, ditto for playing music
and/or movies.  Also, are you able to save and return to games by
yourself and if not, how big of a deal is this to you?  Last, do you
frequently have to mess with the system settings, those seem pretty
extensive according to gamefaqs, and I'd imagine you would need sighted
assistance to get very far in them.  If this is just an occasional thing
I could deal with it but if it is something you have to deal with all
the time that would definitely be a negative factor as I do not always
have sighted people around to help me fiddle with my game.  By the way,
when I say are you able to do these things without sighted assistance, I
realize that there is no accessibility per se and that some memorization
of button presses and so forth is necessary this is fine and I am not
intimidated by that so long as it is possible.

All other comments either positive or negative are welcome, these are
just some basic questions that I have that will help me decide if I want
to get into this or not.  The prices for various packages people are
selling I've seen pretty much range between $100 and $200 depending on
what they are including in the deal.  I can afford to spend that much
but nonetheless it is a serious amount of money to me and not something
I want to spend if this is not going to be something that I will be
wanting to use quite a bit.  Of course the best thing will be for me to
actually get my hands on a psp and try it out and I am working on that
as well, I'll bet one of my nieces or nephews either has one or they
have a friend who does.  I am looking at used systems in order to save
money.

Looking forward to hearing from some of you about this.

Regards,

Tom

well just look at all the recordings people have posted over the years.
those games are accessible.
lets see if i can get those.
capcombowling.
grand theft auto
lord of the rings return of the king and probably the others in that series.
lotr tactics
madon
mk deception.
mk armageden, thats mortal combat by the way.
and standard mk
new jam
svr2006
tekin 3 and tekin 5 fox
and teken 5 le
toshindon 3 gia

these are all the console games in my folder of recordings.
Some of these may not be psp, but if you look at the game play mirror, I think 
its at www.liamerven.com  as well as the www.wecanplay.info sites there is 
info, broadcasts, etc.
You probably should ask liam, and subscribe to the wecanplay info list on that 
site.
However you need to hack the psp if you plan to download games, and as to that 
at least on the wecanplay list no one has actually done that.
Or knows how or at least they are not sharing.

hi thanks for responding.
I don't plan on hacking the psp, just go and buy them as I go along. I take 
long with a game so just wanted to get an idea what is out there.
when you got to the store and ask what is accesible they never know what you 
are talking about, let alone comprehend that a blind person has a psp or 
plays games lol.
thanks alos for the tip aboutthe list, I will definitely check it out.

I have hardly any experience with those. But I don't know how they could be, 
you'd really have to know where and what you were doing; maybe with the 
announcer talking, you could get a general idea. Not sure- the only one I've 
tried was an NHL 92 for the genisus. I should try one for the nintendo 64. 
You can get NFL blitz for like 2 bucks off goatstore.org (genisus is all 
mine! haha, I think I've bought almost every genisus game from there)!

Heh, that's why I wrote that post. It takes hard work to do what you do, and 
your reviews are really well done. Hm unfortunately, I'm a bit financially 
strapped for finances so buying a ps3 is out of the question. I've got an em 
on my laptop that lets me play my old ps games and an adapter that lets me 
play with the real ps controller heh. If you like I could do some medal gear 
solid, tekken, old ps1  game reviews for you. I quit the games when I 
started track and lost touch with everything. I had no idea there was a Lotr 
game we could play! Bet that game gets heated up like crazy wehn your in 
advanced missions. E-mail me offlist or something and we can talk about

 You have no idea how good it makes me feel to know that the gaming section
 of my site has been such an inspiration. It lets me know that what I am
 atempting is, though slowly, beginning to work. To answer your question,
 however, no. The PSP doesn't play .iso files. Sorry. However, if playing
 clasic PS1 games on it is your thing, you could always get a Playstation 3
 and, through the PS3 to PSP connectivity features, download one via the
 playstation store. Just a thought. Enjoy, and please continue to enjoy the
