PSP Themes: My First Attempt

Having shared some of my favourite custom themes for the PSP in the previous post, I now bring you what I have to show for the last couple of days.

I don’t think it’s half bad for a first attempt, although perhaps I could have gone for a bit more consistency with the logos I used to mark options. And it is, of course, yet more proof that I need something more productive to do with my time.

Feedback is welcome.

The recent 3.70 PSP firmware (also in the 3.71 M33 custom firmware) added support for custom themes to personalise the XMB. Using this utility it’s possible to make your own, and since the homebrew community has been customising the XMB for months through less legitimate means, it naturally hasn’t taken long for some good, highly professional ones to show up.

I downloaded a rather impressive theme pack and trawled some forums for the best, as well as a couple that are a bit rubbish really but I found funny. Here are some of my favourites, both official and fan-made:

Cookie (official)

Doom

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

Foxhound/Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops

iPhone

Ken Kutaragi

Kingdom Hearts

LocoRoco

Lumines

Neon

Puyo Puyo

Super Mario World

Wipeout Pulse (official)

I suspect that at least two of those ‘unofficial’ ones are secretly leaked from within Sony. Can you guess which ones?
