my psp doesn't have any dead pixels.

is dead pixel is "there" because of the accident (dropped for example) by user? or is it happen at the first time its published (like broken product).

never...

this psp of mine is too precious to me. i never play it outside, but always play it in my bed at resting time lol.

it is a LONG GAME if you do the first time at HARD difficulty.

i beat the game at first time HARD difficulty for about ~35 hours (not doing all side missions, and no "walkthrough cheat", beat the final bos with approx. ~30 mins lol, got a "brutal" item by defeating a "big bull" monster with approx. ~40 mins and only ~150 dmg per strike he is very tough lol).

and then at the second time HARD difficulty for about the same as ~40 hours (was completed the game at 100% rate, with "walkthrough cheat").

i recommend new players do the same as i.

cheers,

mike
