Hi guys. Sorry if this has been covered before, but my search of the forum is kicking up everything else other than a simple answer for this.

I've got a launch day PSP with a software version of 2.0 I think. I haven't bought any new games for well over a year and so have never updated beyond the update it needed for Worms (I think). Anyway, I got a PS3 at the weekend and tried to connect the two together, but the PS3 said I needed to update the PSP software to do this.

So, my question is, which software version do I need, what will that give me and I suppose, what will I lose by updating?

Cheers

...answer to your main question is i don't know!!!
However, i'd upgrade to the latest m33 FW and gain...everything (i think) and lose nothing...

I believe it has to be 3.80 or above
I agree with pixel8 get custom firmware on it and release your PSP from its Sony shackles

Just got my PSP and of course updated the firmware to Sony's latest.
Being new , what is "custom firmware"? how do I get it? and will I loose any functions ?
Also I've noticed sites that offer "free" games, for a subscription of course, are they any good ? or do they just point you to a load of other sites that I could probably find by searching, or are they a "1 stop shop" ?

No you don't loose any functions only gain, play your games from memory stick, run homebrew such as snes emulators etc etc
