While gaming is the primary use of a PlayStation Portable (also known as PSP), performing other activities such as Internet browsing or chatting can only be considered an advantage. Since Sony hasn’t thought of a messaging application for their devices, others did and that’s how PSP-Messenger saw the daylight.

This tool helps you install an instant messaging service on your Sony PSP, from where you can chat with friends as if you were using a computer. It’s available for some of the most popular messaging services out there: Yahoo, AOL, and MSN.

The most stringent disadvantage of the application is hands down, its installation process. This is not a common type of software, it does not feature an installer or an executable and for good reason too since PSP devices act differently from a computer.

If you follow the installation instructions to the letter, there’s no way you won’t be able to enjoy the messaging experience on your PSP. First off, unzip the download archive, plug in your device, open its memory stick (via My Computer), enter the folder named ‘PSP’, then the one named ‘Common’ and paste the contents of the unzipped folder here. Launch the PSP browser and type the following set of strings: File:/PSP/COMMON/PSPMSG/index.html.

At this point, you should be able to face a window that allows you to choose the messaging service and from here on, things get much simpler. You are now able to login to your account, and start chatting with your friends. On the downside, PSP Messenger also displays the ignored and blocked users from your messenger list, so they will be able to see you online anyway.

To sum it up, PSP Messenger offers a simple solution so that you can enjoy instant messaging on your gaming device. The slightly difficult installation process can be confusing for beginners, but it shouldn’t pose a problem for experienced users.
