A neat trick for the 360
-
Sep 08, 2005 20:38
I doubt we will see this but remember when Sony mentioned being able to play ps3 games using the psp as a screen. Considering the fact that Microsoft mentioned psp connectivity and the fact that the psp has a beautiful 16:9 lcd screen, I think it would be cool if we could use the psp as a screen for 360. I don' t know how its supposed to work, weather its by wifi or usb that connects to the 360 with some kind of adapter. Anyways do you guys think it will happen?

The PSP screen is far too low-res for something like the Xbox360 or the PS3. It would be unacceptable. Text would be unreadable.

Why would you even want to? Hmmm, should I play on: A) A 40" high res HDTV B) A tiny low res PSP screen The answer is pretty obvious.

Why would you even want to? To avoid purchasing a mobile LCD screen. Albeit the LCD screen would be cheaper and give you a better picture quality, but if you already had a PSP then you would at least save a couple hundred bucks.

The connectivity that Microsoft mentioned is for mp3 transfers via USB only. It is not at all game related. You never know, though. With that being said, I think all controllers should have at least a little LCD along the lines of the Dreamcast VMU. Something for selecting weapons really fast or selecting secret plays in sports games (once again, a' la Dreamcast).

" B) A tiny low res PSP screen " define low res? Also, last time I checked, it' s rather hard to fit a television in your pocket.

define low res? The native resolution for the PSP is 480x272 I think. Compared to what the X360 and the PS3 put out, that' s quite low res.
