Author's Review

OK, where to begin on this bad lad. The picture is incredible, the sound amazing and the game library is phenomenal!

The best feature of the PSP however is being able to play the old NES games on the system!

I grew up in the 80's and as such, I am partial to the NES. Not a problem! You can actually download the NES to the PSP! This made it worth buying overall! I have 700+ NES games on one memory stick!

That aside, the design of the system is SWEET! It fits nicely in the hands, has an INCREDIBLE picture, and the battery lasts for quite a while!

I was a little disappointed with the internet feature. It sort of worked when I was around a hot spot, but I had to key into the network every time.

You can use it online around the house if you have wireless set up, but then, what's the point. You already more than likely have a PC online.

That aside, the menu layout is pretty cool and very intuitive. Files are arranged easily and can be accessed quickly.

The UMD movies are very cool, and the screen is super clear, but if you are not away from home much, just get a DVD or Blu-Ray. They cost about as much and you can watch them on a larger screen.

Overall, I would recommend the PSP for games (especially emulated ones) and movies on the fly. I have some reservations about watching movies on this one.
