Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) Console

Pros: Beautiful graphics, MP3 and movie playback, analog control, PS2 knockoff titles

Cons: Costs $250!!! Included 32MB memory not enough, short battery life, PS2 knockoff titles

The Bottom Line: If you can afford it, the PSP is a panacea; if you're just looking to play games, something a little more basic is the ticket.

Review: Update 04.25.2006: See the Show Your Support section for information on the new version 2.7 firmware upgrade Nintendo has dominated the handheld market since, well practically since the handheld market was created. Over the years, ...

Pros: Power and graphics, best screen out there, next-gen gaming!

Cons: Game library is unimpressive, UMD movies are already obsolete, and PSP may die soon.

The Bottom Line: Has not performed up to par, and time is running out. Can PSP keep going? Or will it throw in the towel?

Review: Sony blasted onto the scene two years ago with a handheld device known as the PSP. The Playstation Portable. And it was literally the most touted piece of hardware since the walkman. And the world seemed to believe that it was the most sought after ...

Pros: Crisp, Sharp Screen, Combined MP3, intuative menu

Cons: Bulky, Small Capacity Memory Stick included, Battery Life

The Bottom Line: Overall well thoughtout product, 2nd analogue stick should be issued

Review: Today I managed to get my hands on the new ceramic White PSP. I had been looking to try out the PSP for months, the majority of that time just deciding on what colour I wanted, white or black. The RRP price of the white PSP is £179.99 for the value pack. ...

Pros: Music, movies and games in one device

Cons: Durablitity, accessories end up adding to the cost

The Bottom Line: The console isn't going to be useful so expect to spend more for accessories

Review: I bought the console for my son, also a 13 piece accessory pack and NBA Live game. Grand total=310 bucks. The original battery wouldn't charge after a week, bought another battery = 20 more. The 32MB memory disk was limiting so found a 1Gb on sale =40 ...

Pros: Certainly some neat games. Attractive design.

Cons: Rather expensive for what it really is. Mine was made in China.

The Bottom Line: I would think twice before purchasing one of these. Great for games but not for internet.

Review: When the PSP first came out, I was thinking to myself finally; a portable "CD" based gaming system that I had pictured and dreamed about ever since about 1996. Well, the PSP came out about 10 years later after I thought of the idea of having a ...

Pros: More features, PS2-like graphics, less bulky, brighter screen, and slightly improved battery life.

Cons: Fragile and overly delicate, still a little expensive, and can be better.

The Bottom Line: Highly recommend anyone not to buy this console. Don't get swindled for this piece of trash. The multimedia capabilities of this device are almost unnecessary.

Review: SONY PSP, AN ANTI-PORTABLE GAMING CONSOLE!!! (Just kidding) Apparently, the Sony PSP (PlayStation Portable) is a great system with lots of optional features, better style, PS2-like graphics, and a bigger wide LCD screen for a portable device (not big ...

Pros: features like wi-fi internet access, games, music, videos,and great graphics

Cons: does not come with much

The Bottom Line: this is a great product for game/music lovers

Review: Sony's psp core pack is for the people who don't want to pay much and want to work your way up. I bought this because it was the cheapest pack price I could find and i have wanted one ever since it came out.In the core pack is the system the power cord, ...

Pros: A large selection of potential applications

Cons: Plagued by slow downs and lockup

The Bottom Line: Wait until a more stable software platform is established before you buy.

Review: Quite frankly, the handheld market for the serious gamer has been, well, lame! Sega attempted to leap past Nintendo in the early nineties and at the time seemed to take the leads for a short time over the ever expanding Gameboy library. However, the ...

Pros: Great gameplay. Cool to be able to watch videos.

Cons: Uncomfortable to hold. Limited number of fun games. Bulky and clumsy.

Review: I bought this in November of last year and have probably used it ten hours total. I went through the expense of buying a 1G memory card so I could put movies and music on, but its not worth the hassle. I bought GTA:Liberty City Stories the day t came out ...

Pros: Graphics, Portability, Design, Sleakness, Games

Cons: Bad sound, Pricey, LOW BATTERY LIFE

Review: When the Playstation Portable was first turned on it was like having a Playstation 2 in your hands. Compared to the Nintendo DS the Graphics Were Phenominal. The design of the PSP lets you go from the standard to Playstation controller to this in no ...
