More on that at the full story.

Those who are into gaming just for the stories can check out AQ Interactive and ChunSoft's "sound novel" Anato Wo Yurusanai (I Won't Forgive You), and according to the latest TV spot for this sound novel, it promises to provide more entertainment compared to just reading plain black text over white background. This short TV ad shows a row of women reading, with one of them blissfully poring through Anato Wo Yurusanai in her PSP, reading as well as playing at the same time. Hmmm... It sounds an awful lot like playing through Phoenix Wright.

Developer TJcrazy has just launched the E-buddy Live Portal. This homebrew gives users an easy way of accessing the PSP-E-Buddy site from a Windows Live Messenger Portal.

All in all, this is a pretty comprehensive portal which should make browsing much more fun. In case you get tired of messaging your friends, games and applications from the QJ Portal were transferred over including favorites such as PSP Simon, Roobix, Copter, and even Tetris. It also includes ICDraw, Image-viewer, a text file reader, and a Flash Media Player.

This is the first version of the program and we can expect even better things from this project. TJcrazy has given word that he plans to release at least one more program at a later date. Installing and using the program is pretty straight-forward though it's still advisable to go over the documentation before doing anything.
