OMG this is old. Atleast highlight the interesting bit, or the sub-site specific parts.
No, jk. I'm tired of other people complaining like this. So I thought I'd do it myself to see if it did anything for me.

"Sony has developed an official PlayStation Portable Emulator that is available to the developers. Apparently it runs on PC and can be used for testing games and applications without the need to burn them to UMD's. Source: PSP-Emulator.com "

THIS ISNT THE LAST METAL GEAR SOLID GAME. Its only the last MGS game Kojima will be working on. He's pretty much said this before 3 and 4, so if he'll change his mind again is still a definite possiblity.
He saids he wants to work on new projects. I would definitely want to see what other franchise(s) he could create, with different genres even.

The PSP CPU is limited to from 333Mhz to 222Mhz due to battery limitations. But there's a lot of instances in PSP homebrew where they raise the Mhz to 333, pretty much instantly doubling the to 60fps(like in GTA and WipeOut).
