I was playing star wars battlefront and I got bored so I decided to turn off my psp. When I switch it off the green light was still on. I had to take the battary of to turn the psp off. Is this bad??

I waited 2 minutes, and eventually took the battery out, worried about if I had somehow screwed something up (I always hated doing hard restarts on my computer when it crashed bad) but it was fine when I turned it back on. I guess they crash just like computers, but I don't think it'll brick or anything unless you're doing it during a firmware update?

Please take the time to read the thread. When something like that happens, you have to hold up the power switch for about 10 seconds. The PSP will shut down, which is what I call "hard reset".
