  This PSP is the best yet!

  by brettak81 on May 1, 2009

  Pros: - Huge game library
  - Excellent graphics
  - Internet browser
  - Playstation Store
  - Watch movies

  Cons: - Some of the good games are tough to find in store
  - If Sony does go with all downloadable games in the future then you're stuck with your UMD's

  Summary: The price is right for what you get out of this system even after 4 years on the market. It's more geared towards mature gamers.

  Best Handheld I have Owned

  by smcurran on April 26, 2009

  Pros: PS2 like Graphic much better than the DSi.
  Feels like you are playing a console..

  Cons: slippery in hands at times.
  Black picks up Fingerprints easily.

  Summary: This is a no brianer for hardcore gamers. Nintendo DSI is much better suited for younger and casual players, but if you are a hardcore gamer or an adult (or ...

  best portable system out there!

  by mjjmk on April 23, 2009

  Pros: screen brighter (but i can't find the brightness and contrast settings everyone talked about) shinier, scratch resistant, SLIM!!

  Cons: UMD reader cover isnt button operated- fragile, hard to see outside, internet slow, uses site pooling so it takes up alot of room

  Summary: dont buy if you have 2000 but if you have 1000 or don't have a portable system, GET IT. but i would wait for 4000 because of the wonky ...

  Summary: dont buy if you have 2000 but if you have 1000 or don't have a portable system, GET IT. but i would wait for 4000 because of the wonky UMD cover. and the buttons are seperate- not a connected game pad so its better than ever.

  Its a cool system

  by denton_lewis on March 15, 2009

  Pros: Its lighter than the older model. It loads up a lot faster and starts games and video quicker. The picture and video quality has been improved a lot. I like being able to talk on skype with the mic.

  Cons: The psp still freezes during game play. The umd slot is very weak and comes off track a lot. And i still have to clean the screen a whole lot.

  Summary: Its a great portable device with many improvements over the old model, but it still has many of the same problems as the older modle had and has developed some ...

  Summary: I really like the Psp 3000 and i think it definantly is more better then the nintendo DS. The only real let down is that there isn't enough dedicated psp games, which reaaly is a big problem, but with a boost in sales they should release more games and softwares eg. nintendos brain training.

  Summary: When you pick up and play a PSP it just feels like such a cool little system in the palm of your hands. It's very easy to throw on some pics, videos etc from your PC and watch them on the go. The only trouble I had was getting the internet connection to work through my router. It works most of the time but there is always a random chance of disconnecting.
  
  The system has a enough buttons, large screen and powerful enough processor to allow pretty sophisticated games to be made. Many games look just as good and pack as many features as their PS2 counterparts and the newer PSP games like Final Fantasy Crisis Core are pure works of art.
  
  As long as you have a good sized Memory Stick Duo you can download lots of demos, videos and themes from the PS store. There are even some full PSP game downloads that are very cheap. With the larger memory you can really turn your PSP into a great portable multi-media center and all you really need is any standard digital camera/cellphone USB cable to connect your PSP to your PC.
  
  If you can get the wi-fi to work with your router then you'll be able to get online to the PS store which has a lot of good content and the internet browser is surprisingly good. It's much easier to read websites than on my BlackBerry 8320.
  
  I don't have enough games yet to comment on the long loading times from UMD's but most people have had this problem but Sony is moving more towards digital media distribution as solid state memory prices continue to plummet. I have a 1GB stick but the best would be 4-8GB, however be prepared to pay a premium compared to SD cards which the PSP can't use.
  
  If you're looking for a portable system with more mature themed games that can also do other multimedia tasks pretty well than the PSP is just for you. Be sure to pick up the PSP 3000 model as it has all the latest improvements.

  Excellent!

  by PiiSPii on December 27, 2008

  Pros: The screen is absolutely beautiful and the silver finish doesn't show smudges like my trusty old 1001 did.

  Cons: Not really a significant upgrade from the 2000.

  Summary: I bought this new one because my 1001 broke, but I wouldn't go back to the old model unless somebody paid me (and even then, it would kind of ...

  Summary: I bought this new one because my 1001 broke, but I wouldn't go back to the old model unless somebody paid me (and even then, it would kind of depend on how much they were willing to pay). It's not perfect, but it's pretty close.
