Just maxed out my bundled 32MB PSP memory stick with solely Pure content. 8O Ghosts and two Gammas mainly.

Damn you Sony boys for making me buy a bigger stick. I plumped for a 512MB SanDisk Pro Duo at £60 from Tottenham Ct Rd. ;)

if you don`t fancy ebay scroll down the bottom and they have the Sandisk gaming memory sticks for about 45 quid for a 512.

you`re right emsef, the 32mb can`t even hold gammas 1 and 2 and a ghost for every track. these sandisks do work slightly quicker than Sony`s, I think, but it won`t change your life. :wink:

Obviously didn't go where I did. There was an electronics store near the Oxford Street end that sold me a 256MB Sony card for £35. They would have sold it to me for £45 had I not stood there and pondered. Always look like you're thinking about going elsewhere, it's the best way to get discounts in Tottenham Court Road. :wink:

I know I could have got it cheaper elsewhere, but when your college is just up the road it's pretty convenient.

512's are about 45squiddys in any of the costco's as far as i know.

Oh and buy the sandisk cards, they are a lot faster and more reliable.

Just double the price that is the standard conversion. (Give or take)

And you'll find they are a lot cheaper stateside anyway.

Move your ghost saves onto your computer and just transfer them back when needed, that'll free up some space.

I've still got 10 megs left with three Gammas, two Mercury profiles, a Lumines save, and a Wipeout profile 8)

I should still look into a bigger stick though...three download packs out of, what, 9? I'll definately need more space...

I'm sure I read in Edge magazine that in total, the download packs for WipEout Pure would amount to approximately 200mb!

This includes the fabled music and artwork downloads as well, mind you... 8O

Hopefully the music is not fabled :wink:

I'm not really that fussed. £60 was good for me as i needed it now as i don't have room for ghosts let alone Gamma #3!

I'll only ever use it for Wipeout and the odd save game unless some other great game comes out for PSP. Not holding my breath! ;)

Wow, I really am lucky. I managed to get a 256MB Sandisk for only $30, and that included the Memory Stick Adapter! But as soon as I find out how the @#$% to get Flash cartoons into MP4 files I will be investing in a 1GB.

I was lucky to buy a psp with a 128MB stick.
Although I'll need a bigger one.
Is scandisk really better than sony?

I own a Sandisk 1GB stick, it is consistently fast and reliable. I stuffed it with 600 megs of MP3s the moment I got it ;)

| managed to get a 1gb from there - maybe I got the last one though. :wink:

the larger ones, especially 512s, seem to be sold out in a lot of places.

Currently 1 GBP = 1.75 dollars
