Accepting a Join Game Request
For A Cooperative Game
When selecting a game
from the Join Game list,
the player who is hosting
a game session will re-
ceive a message on their
screen allowing them to
accept the network con-
nection. Their game will
pause while this message
is displayed and they will have the choice to ACCEPT, REJECT or

to highlight your choice. Press the s button to accept your choice.
Press the a button to automatically REJECT the request.
Note: When choosing IGNORE, you will refuse the network con-
nection from the second player. Doing so bans the second player
from making further join requests. This ban is lifted when the
player exits the current game to the Game Select Menu or turns
off the PSP® system.

Pausing the Game / Changing

settings during Network Play
If you pause the game during network play (or access the Start
Game Menu), all connected players’ games are paused and
darkened and a message will appear in the upper-right corner of
each connected players' screen notifying the other player that you
are changing settings.
Note: If the other player has paused the game during network
play, you can also access your Pause Menu by pressing the
START button.
Loss of Connection /
Dropping Networked Players
If a network player is dropped from a game – either by choice
or due to network failure – the game in progress on all
PSP® systems will be paused and you can choose to continue
playing the existing game without the disconnected player or
reset to the Title Screen.
Note: In an alternating game, choosing CONTINUE switches the
game to the two-player alternating mode, where both players’ ac-
tions are controlled by the same PSP® system.
