Well if you ask me, this is a must have for any PSP owner. McZonk just released his Beta 2 version of the famous Quake 2 port for PSP hot off the press. Also like Beta 1, Beta 2 was more focused on multiplayer then on single player. Here is a list of changes according to McZonk:

 

–.pak File Support: This will decrease the copy to memory stick rapidly. It also increases loading time a little bit.

 

–Sound: I have implemented sound in Quake 2 now. It is still very buggy and slow. During the game it is very nice even if not all sound data is loaded so far.

 

–Clipping: Even if clipping is not slow at the moment, there is a lot of potential to make it faster, by using the vfpu as example. Since I have an algorithm I am happy with, I can now start to optimize the speed.

 

–Flipscreen Support: You can set gu_flipscreen 1 in the console to turn around the psp viewing by 180 degrees. So you can hold the psp upside down. I implemented this because I want to make Quake 2 as configurable as possible.

 

 –Master Server: I am trying this with my beta testers, but it is still not stable enough to use. So it is disabled in this release.

Note: This is a homebrew game, not an official one. In order to play you need 1.5 or any OE firmware.
