Joystiq Guide: PSP on the 360

PSP 360

Presenting the official Joystiq guide on getting your shiny toys to play nice together: your Sony PSP and your Microsoft Xbox 360. Just like iPod integration, this seemed crazy, but we are here to announce: it works great.

To the right is a lovely, svelte PSP next to the impressive 360 (with PGR3 faceplate). In between them, a simple USB to USB mini connector.


Once you have connected the two, all you need to do is put the PSP into USB mode. This can be found in the leftmost Settings menu.

For photo playback return to the Media blade and select Pictures. Again, select Portable Device and again navigate the filesystem until you get to Portable Device : PSP : PHOTO. This should contain all your photos. Mine are organized into playlist folders, and all images had been resized to the PSPs native 480*272. Considering, they looked almost decent on the giant screen (see pic), so I imagine they would look even better on a more normal-sized screen say, anything under 8 feet wide.
