See this FAQ for instructions on grouping your content.
Since Firmware 2.00, the PlayStation 3 has allowed you to group content on your PS3 into Folders. You can group Photos, Music, Videos and even Games into Folders. Games can be arranged into custom folders too, e.g. “Demos”, “PSOne Classics” etc.
To group content, press to see the grouping options. Optionally, press and the PS3 will cycle through the different grouping options.
For games, press and go down to [Information]. On this screen, you can edit the “Album” name to whatever you want. This can be a handy way to group different game genres (e.g. action, RPG etc), formats (minis, PSOne, PSN) or whatever else you fancy.
As of PS3 Firmware 2.10, the PlayStation 3 supports the playback of VC-1 (WMV) encoded files. In order to play VC-1 content, WMV playback must be enabled by going to [Settings] > [System Settings] > [Enable WMA Playback]. Videos encoded using VC-1 larger than 2GB or with copy protection cannot be played on the PlayStation 3.
Your old PSP headphones can be used with the PSPgo, but any other accessory is not directly compatible with the PSPgo. The PSPgo Converter allows you to use accessories like the Go!Cam, GPS device and Talkman Mic with the PSPgo. The converter makes the PSPgo less portable and also makes it look uglier, but its the only way you can make use of your old stuff.
The XMB cannot be accessed directly within a game but the PSPgo does feature a Pause Game option. If you need to access the XMB during a game. Press the PS button and choose [Quit/Pause Game], then select [Pause Game] to save the game to temporary memory. You will be able to XMB and then resume the game from where you left off.
To resume the game, go to the [Game] menu on the XMB and select [Resume Game]. The game will continue from where you paused it. You can play another game while there is a paused game, but pausing another game will overwrite the previous paused game.
Yes. Using Blue-tooth connectivity, you can pair your PSP with a controller to play games. In order to pair your PSPgo with a PS3 Controller, you will need:
To pair your PSPgo with the controller, go to the [Settings] menu on the XMB and select the [Bluetooth Device Settings] option. Select [Bluetooth Device Management] and choose to register a PS3 System controller.
The PSPgo features most of the same functionality as the older PSP models, with a few exceptions. The PSPgo lacks a UMD drive but has 16GB of built-in flash storage. The PSPgo also has blue-tooth connectivity allowing you to use a PS3 Wireless Controller to play games or connect to the Internet using Bluetooth Modems or via Mobile Phones.
The PSPgo also uses M2 Memory Stick storage instead of the Memory Stick Duo found in the older PSPs. The USB connection on the PSPgo is different to older models – it is used for both connecting to the PS3/PC and for charging the unit. A built-in microphone is included in so a special headset is not required.
The PSPgo does not have a physical UMD drive, making the unit much more compact and light. You can, however, play old UMD titles by purchasing them from the PlayStation Store. Hundreds of titles are available to purchase from the PlayStation Store, with new titles added each week.
Use the Media Go application or visit the PlayStation store on your PSP or PS3 to see what’s available.
The PSPgo comes with 16GB of flash memory, build into the unit. Of the 16GB available, 14GB is available for usage. The other 2GB is reserved for system use and temporary data. The available memory can be further expanded using a M2 Memory Stick, available up to 32GB.
