PSP Revolution v0.2 Released!

DeNitro and Devin923 have released a new version of the highly praised homebrew game, PSP Revolution. The game, based off a popular game called Stepmania, was first released for the PSP back in November 2005, quite a long time ago. This extremely long hiatus between updates obviously gave the developers a ton of time to improve on the new release, which features a ton of updates and additions, probably the most ever introduced in a single update of a homebrew game. If you haven't had a chance to check out the v0.1 of the game, be sure to check out the new v0.2; it's a blast! Mad props to DeNitro and Devin923 for this released!
