Question about the PSP. - Blu-ray Forum

Cyorg · 01-02-2008, 04:37 PM

I just got a Star Wars PSP yesterday, and I think I heard somewhere that if you have a PS3 as well, you can play your PSP games using the TV as your screen. Is this true? If so, how do you do it?

yup. there's component cables to hook the psp up to your tv.

You just need some of these:

No PS3 necessary.

Oooooh, I thought you could remote play "through" the PS3 on the TV, as well. Guess I misunderstood. The component cables wouldn't work for me - I don't think - it's impossible to play up close to my 65".

And my couch is about 10 Ft away. I definately like sitting in a comfy chair while playing.

The remote play feature is to play or view things that are stored on the PS3 remotely on your PSP screen.

Yeah, the cables are not for me. I thought I could do I with a wireless connection via my PS3. Oh well, thanks for clearing that up.

Buy 5 of these: http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2
Then one of these: http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

About 7.00 later and you have 11 ft of cable.

No only the PSP-2000 has the options in the firmware for video out.

The port on the PSP is actually different too.

although i like my older psp model, i wish they included this feature in the beginning

I'd trade my old one in, but I was messing around with the new model and i felt like i was going to snap it in two. ecspecially if i get angry during a marathon FF1, 2, or tactics session
