    PSP Action Replay, 3 Feb 2009

    How this product was advertised and what it turned out to be was not the same thing. I e-mailed to return it and get a refund, the first answer was no - I e-mailed a second time requesting to return product and receive a credit. This time it was granted. To reduce further problems with this item, advertise what it really is not what you want you think it might be.

    Thank you

    What is this?, 2 Apr 2008

    upon receiving this item i wasn't impressed at all.... it's nothing more than a memory management program, and not your typical cheat device like the other AR Replay items are. I am disappointed in this product. I wouldn't suggest this if you are looking for a cheat device for your games.

    Hardly worth it., 2 Feb 2008

    I fear this product is highly misleading.

    Most Action Replay devices actually give you the ability to manipulate in-game conditions; offering unusual circumstances like infinite life, massive experience point rewards after battle, lots of money, item upgrades, etc. In such cases you can choose to start a game anew with the data manipulation or actually use the device to alter an already-existing game.

    Not So With the PSP Action Replay!

    This device is basically an overpriced way of putting someone else's data onto your PSP. With it, you can take "game saves" from Datel's website or directly from other players and upload them to your PSP's memory card, basically putting onto your PSP the ability to play someone else's game. In most cases, these game saves are already at the end of the game. Now it can be somewhat interesting to play through a game ignoring some of the more cumbersome mechanics of the game, but what is the point of taking someone else's data and skipping the game entirely?

    In addition, there are multiple OTHER ways of acquiring game saves and putting them onto your PSP, for cheaper and with better manipuation possibilities. I recommend PSP Media Manager. With this software, you can go to various websites and download game saves and upload them to your PSP, but it also has video/photo/music etc. support as well. It's cheaper, does pretty much the same thing and has more options to offer.

    I love my AR Max items for my other systems, but in this case, this AR Max missed the mark.

    Saves Only, Not Action, 19 Jan 2007

    The people at datel have been very mixed with the uses of the action Replay for each of their systems. They've had ones with great codes like the Gamecube and Playstation 2, and there are ones that haven't delivered with the promise of great games. That can definitely be declared as a dissapointment with the PSP edition. This one you can go to the codejunkies.com website, and download saves that make it too easy to beat the game, rather than codes that just enhance and deliver the excitement on the game. That is the sad part. Other than it doubling as a memory card, it doesn't actually work as something that makes it fun to play games like Daxter, or Lumines. Although I would normally suggest this as a must buy, this one doesn't hit the mark at all.

    Action Replay Fails again!, 8 Jan 2007

    This problem happened before with the Xbox, and now it has moved to the PSP. "Power" saves are nothing more than just the game already beat for you.

    Codes involved with the Cube, DS, and PS2 Action Replays were able to alter a wide variety of game parameters to your advantage while still allowing you to experience the game.

    Power saves allow you to skip playing the game altogether because someone already played it for you.

    To Datels defense, some of their "Power" saves do in fact give you advantages such as tons of money and 0% completion. The package claims "thousands" of these saves are avaliable. Upon installing the software and checking for official Datel saves, I found only around 100, and possibly 500 more user(played it for you) saves.

    To top it off I emailed customer support at Datel about the lack of codes and received no response.
