So let’s apply some of that journalistic intuition that serves dedicated Pro-G readers so well.

In short, evidence that simply porting a console game across to the PSP is pushing all that portable hardware just a little too hard. Specifically, US reviewers tell of scandalous loading times, frame rate reductions and slowdown. MC3 PSP has been out for a couple of weeks now in the US and reviews have shown a number of hardware issues that affect gameplay.

Why? You would be a wise person to ask, and, since great minds think alike, we asked too. In MC3, a game Rockstar hope to release for the PSP’s launch on September 1st, we appear to have a hybrid.įirst things first – the build we played was 85-90% complete, running on a PSP dev-kit. Hardcore gaming sessions, traditionally, do not. What works on handheld, traditionally, are short blasts of simple gaming fun, fit for the twenty minute bus journey, ten minute tube ride, or hour lunch break. Conversely, it would also test the boundaries of what a handheld game can be. If ever there was a game that would push the PSP hard, it would be Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition (from now on MC3, since the truth can sometimes be condensed). With a carefree nod and a skip in our step, we oblige. And then Rockstar come along and ask us to try out Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition for the PSP. Not in a post-modern, Nietzsche kind of way mind you, merely in a ‘is this damn post right?’ kind of way. Not one to indulge in pre-pubescent flame wars, Pro-G seeks the truth. “It’s as good as the PS2!” “No it’s not, it’s only about PS1.5!” “You’re both wrong! It’s better than everything!” … and so on and so forth.

The PSP has been lauded, ridiculed and hacked to pieces since its Japanese launch last Christmas (I’m not going to go into European delays here).
