I play MVP Baseball for my Sony PSP. I’ve tried two different umd disks of the same game. When the other team does a substitute a box pops up informing you of the substitution. 90% of the time the game freezes and I have to restart all over again. should I clean the lens or should I call the technical support center for sony? I can’t seem to find my manual at this time and I’m not having any luck on the internet. Can you help me please?
I don’t actually have the game MVP Baseball with my own Sony PSP (in fact, I only have one game, Ridge Racer) but I have a sense that the problem you’re seeing isn’t with the baseball game…
Instead, I’m suspecting that you might have a bad Memory Stick Duo in your Sony PSP. It just seems logical to me that the game is writing out a little snippet of temporary data to the memory stick when it makes a substitution to the team, and for some reason that particular spot on the memory card has a glitch.
Is there any way you can try switching to a different Memory Stick Duo and playing the game a half-dozen times?
Note also that Electronic Arts, makers of MVP Baseball, have a question on their tech support board asking Why is the game freezing in the ninth inning? with an answer of “This issue is currently being researched”. [If that link doesn’t work, get there by clicking on Support on the main MVP Baseball 2005 for Sony PSP page.]
Hope that helps you out. Sounds darn frustrating!
on my tekken 5 dr half way through most my fights my PSP freezes and i cant even switch it off i have to take the battery out. and when i tried my other UMD’s the same problem occurs. and my UMD’s work on other psp’s.
can you please tell me what is wrong
i think it might be the laser but it works for a whilst but then it crashes 🙁
I kind-of doubt that the memory stick is the problem, unless a mass number of memory sticks have a problem with them. Just search “psp freeze” on google; you’ll see how many people have problems with PSP freezes, with many games.
My PSP is not seeing any UMD’s? What up?
Not sure what to advise, Chillibird. Take your PSP into a store and ask if they have a demo UMD cartridge you can try and/or a game you can try while in the store. See if it works. Then try plugging your Hot Shots Golf into another PSP and see what happens. It’s hard to say if it’s the PSP or the game cartridge, given what you’ve described.
Good luck!
