YES! a psp is the best portable gaming machine ever. ok dont get me wrong DS has some fun games but with psp you can download videos and convert them into high quality and put them on your psp. and the new games like star wars battlefront elite squadren is nice and, you have music, photos, movies, and games, and not to mention internet like Facebook. i would go to gamestop and buy a used one for 99.99 the old one. it might not look to cute but its the most reliable. and with the play station network you can download like itunes. anything.

I like having a PSP. The graphics are great for a handheld system, and its very versatile. It has video, music, picture, internet radio, internet and comic support. They also have access to the PSN which allows for downloadable content ranging from games, to movies to comics. There are also a wide variety of great games available, such as Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII, God of War Chains of Olympus, Dissidia: Final Fantasy, Killzone: Liberation, Rock Band, Soul Caliber IV, Daxter, Patapon, Little Big Planet, ect. There are also several ports of other non-PSP native games. If you happen to own a PS3 you can also download Playstation 1 games from a very select list and put them onto your PSP to play. If you want to go this rout, you could also hack your PSP which would open it up for Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, and Playstation emulators to be used on the PSP. It also allows you to run digital PSP games that you download onto your computer. Some smaller aspects of hacking your PSP is that you can then listen to your music while playing games and you can access YouTube.

Personally the PSP was the BEST portable system to me and I only use the internet access and games. If you have videos and pictures then it would be even better. I personally love the system since I can play a lot of cool and awesome PSP games. Pros: Portable (duh), Light (in weight), if its slim brighter light if not (aka chuncky) not that bright light, Access to wireless internet (that has no security), A lot of strategy and rpg games on it and adventure, and you can play music. Cons: Battery life (not tampered or hacked) is 3-4 hours of non stop playing, Not a lot of shooter games/ fighting, mostly single play (might be a pro if you're like me with no friends with PSP), and disc can be easily broken.

I have a ds and a psp and i think that the psp is much better. A psp 3000 and if you like a lot of media stuff and playing games its a great console. the psp is able to not only play games with extremely good graphics but you can watch movies, listen to music, if you have wireless internet you can surf the web with the built in internet browser, theres even a new app for it so you can read comics on it. also if you have a skype account theres an app for that too (but you have to have wireless internet to access it). the dsi is not bad but it doesnt have as much capabilities as the psp. the dsi can listen to music and play games and even surf the web too, but the graphics are not the best and the internet connection is very very slow if you want to surf the web. another thing about the dsi is that if you had any gba games the dsi cant play them. the ds lite and original ds had a slot for ds games and gba. the dsi has now a ds and sd card slot. the cameras on the dsi is also a cool gadget but the graphics arent the best and if you were using the camera its not the best at taking pictures. my preference is to go with the psp. the psp although may be a little more expensive than a ds, but the psp has a lot more features. if you want some more info on psp and dsi go to these websites: dsi: nintendodsi.com/ meet-dsi.jsp psp: us.playstation.com/ PSP/ Featur…

For sure! Here is a PSP bundle: 60 dollar PSP's don't seem like such a good idea. This one is from a trusted seller: cgi.ebay.com/ ws/ eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem &item= 280461772395 &ssPageName= STRK:MESELX:IT
