EDIT:Ad-Hoc Party has released in the US! I will edit the first post accordingly.
Here's a run-down of what you need to start getting yourself online:
- A Playstation 3 (Any region PS3 is possible)
- A Playstation Portable (Any region PSP is possible)
- A Copy of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core for PSP (All games only see eachother if they are the same region, there are no cross regions - US to JAP for example, Though JAP to Asian is still not confirmed.)
- AdHoc Party US
Note: You'll need your PS3 to be connected to the internet through WIRED or else AdHoc Party will automaticly close.
But First alittle information about AdHoc Party:
It is a application that lets PSP games that didn't have an Infrastructure (Online) Mode and only an AdHoc Mode to now be played online.
~~~~~~~~~~ Steps for playing AdHoc Party ~~~~~~~~~~
Getting yourself "AdHoc Party US":
1. Make yourself a PSN account.
2. Login into your account and goto the Playstation Store. It should be listed if you search a bit.
Setting yourself up for "AdHoc Party":
1. Alright, There are going to be 3 options in the beginning.
2. Choose the third one and have your psp beside you, Turn on your Wifi, Preferably when you goto network mode in the game you're playing and it'll go into wifi mode, Then your PSP's Name should appear, Just press circle to continue.
3. Now just goto the first Tab and BOOM! Welcome to Adhoc Party!
AdHoc Party's SYSTEM:
- Alright, Now that you are in AdHoc Party, This is how it works:
1. There are 10 WORLDS, Lettered From A to J. Within each world there are 64 Hubs, In each Hub, a max of 32 people can fit.
2. BLUE indicates there are a low number of people in the hub, YELLOW Indicates there is moderate people in the hub, RED Indicates the hub is full or can possibly fit 1 or 2 more people.
3. Now that you've chose a World and Room, You're not ready yet, As you'll have to create a ROOM in order to start your gaming, if you joined a hub with people, you'll notice there are "Houses" there with titles, Those are the ROOMS.
Setting up a Room:
1. Simply press circle anywhere on the floor and the second option is to CREATE A ROOM. (first option is to join a room if u highlighted a room or run somewhere)
2. Once you clicked that you'll be opened to a window, The first option is the name of the room, The second is description and the third is password.
3. Now that you've made it, You'll see that only 4 people can fit in the room. Only more than 4 can fit in the room if 1 of the 4 people have another PSP with them, Connected, as it will show 2(or more, up to 4) PSP's instead of one beside the persons name.
4. Now, Set up any game like you would do in AdHoc Mode and ANYONE who joins your room with the same game, should see you and you'll see him in the lobby of the game of your choice. ENJOY PLAYING ONLINE!
I've actually had an Idea for a set-up for playing Guilty Gear Online:
If any of the dustloop people want to meet up, We can simply just goto World D (D for dustloop! =D) and Hub 30 and Make a room there called GGAC or something!
Funny, how I used Ad-hoc party US for Gundam Vs Gundam and it didn't lag, Tekken 5, SC lag horribly and Final Fantasy Dissidia is hit or miss. Overall I don't mind too much.
If you have any questions just ask and i'll be glad to help out however I can!
