This is a list of things I'd like Sony to fix for the PSP, to truly
make it into the ultimate handheld console. Some have already been
hinted at, some are small annoyances I would personally like removed
and some are my own ideas of extending the functionality of the PSP.
Read on for the full list.
A couple of obvious things haven't been added to this list, as I don't
think it's necessary to mention them since everyone already has voiced
their concerns over and over again. These are things like battery
times, dead pixels, price tag on the PSP itself as well as games, not
being able to create UMD's etc.
The list isn't sorted in any way, neither by importance to me or by how big the change is.
- Remove automatic loading of games, as well as jumping to the game
menu when the UMD has loaded. If I want to play a game when I start my
PSP I will select it, when I don't want I shouldn't have to go through
the hassle of jumping out of the game first.
- Better text input, a keyboard would be nice, but also a better
software solution, possibly including dictionaries, like the T9
function on cell phones.
- Easier way to add videos, without having to rename them and place
them in a secret special folder. As well as the ability to play full
size videos that utilizes the entire beautiful screen.
- Personalization and customization of the XMB menu system,
choosing colors, background images, possibly even rearranging the
options and adding new ones, like shortcuts to functionality that lies
deeper in the menu.
- Better playlist functionality for music, browsing by artist and album, as well as creating internal playlists easily.
- I'd love to be able to hook up the PSP to a television to be able
to play games on a full screen, to watch photo slideshows and movies.
- Basic PIM functionality would be great, a calendar, todo list, address book etc.
- Syncing with cell phones through the IR port, or something, anything, to make use of it!
- Letting anyone create programs for the PSP, this would open up a whole new world of things to do with the PSP.
- Web surfing on the PSP would be nice, but isn't a necessity.
