Now we haven't heard from PSP Revolution recently. All we've been getting for some time now are mods and additional "skins." But today, DeNitro and Devin923 have released PSP Revolution v0.3 for everyone to get busy with. For those not familiar with this non-hombrew-looking homebrew (shame!), it's played much like Step Mania. Keep up with the music and make sure you time your button presses well when they hit the indicators on the top of the screen.
