I totally forgot that Microsoft had mentioned connectivity with the PSP at this year's E3. That curved graphic in the dashboard is gay.

Why wouldn't it support the PSP? MemorySticks are just another one of Sony's rips of another product. (CompactFlash). :lol:

No, idiot. MemoryStick technology is at it's core just CompactFlash... Just like how i.Link is really IEEE1394. Sony markets established technology, and typically changes it ever so slightly to make it proprietary to it's products.

The PSP fortunately has USB2.0 and WiFi, so there's no reason the XBOX360 wouldn't recognize it.

Actually I think it looks kind of interesting. An incredible waste of space, yes, but different. :icon14:

it would be better if they didn't waste 15% of the screen either side on 'whitespace', with no tabs or anything :\

looking pretty good so far, i like the fact they'll have free xbox live :)

They didn't change IEEE1394 "to make it proprietary". They renamed it. That's it. Just like Apple renamed it Firewire. You're a faggot.

Not unless you want to actually play games on xbox live. And WTF happened to the "Live weekends" they talked about (free gaming on weekends). They just kind of stopped talking about it at all.

Haha. Now I look at it again, it just says 'USB storage device' so it's probably just plugged into a memory stick.
