PSP Firmware 6.20 Brings Digital Comics, Video Playlists
If you’re sick of papercuts and inky thumbs, you may want to go ahead and download your PSP’s latest update. According to PlayStation Blog, this next iteration of the PSP's capabilities brings with it the Digital Comics Reader and the exportation of video/photo playlists.
You’ll find the Digital Comics Reader under the new “Extras” section on the XMB. After going through the process of downloading the reader, you’re going to have to go ahead and install it. After that’s all said and done, you’ll have to wait until the PlayStation Digital Comics store goes live. According to the website, you’re “expected” to be able to purchase comics in December 2009.
Video and photo playlists that you’ve created on Media Go, Sony’s PC media manager, can now be exported to your PSP. If you’re the owner of a PSP Go, you’re likely already familiar with Media Go, so the update should streamline your file organization.
Anybody excited to save a trip to the comic shop and the anxiety that comes with keeping your collection mint? Or would you miss the sweet smell of fresh issues?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
