I think newer model PSPs fixed the dpad responsiveness somewhat. But I bought mine off someone who got theirs around launch, sooo...

Mine is a launch PSP, I have no problems doing diagonals.

Fucking great. I bought mine off of a friend who had an early model too.

ditto. Well, there are "perks" to working in a videogame store. Ill have to test out this game on other used PSP's we have in the back to see if it is equally unplayable on those models...

PSP dpad is total garbage. If you want the best solution, go to Ebay and look for these risers you can put under the pad. This means you have to take apart the system, buts it's a permanent fix unlike those Dpads that dont stay on.

Yeah, I was going to look into that too.

Do any of those different colored replacement d-pad/ button packs offer a similar improvement?

I don't know what you mean. You mean the thing I linked to versus the Dpads that come with certain games? The risers are better. They are permanent and feel like part of the system, since you are actually touching the real buttons still.
