  Sony PSP Game Console

The PSP is a great handheld system, with a few drawbacks.

The PSP has a great screen size, and very good graphics. There are already games out for it that I'm hooked on, (Lumines and Tiger Woods Golf for example). There are also quite a few games coming out soon that look great too.

The PSP is a comfortable size, fits easily in your hands, and is not so small you'll get cramps easily (a problem I used to have with Gameboy Advance). Loading cartridges is easy and smooth, and the removable memory card is great not only for storing saved games, but can also be used for MP3s, which can be played through the PSP.

The PSP is also able to play movies, although normally the movies have to have been recorded to the PSPs proprietary media (the little mini DVDs that the games come on)

My biggest beef with the PSP is the sound. The sound is fairly good for games, but in my opinion leaves alot to be desired for movies and music. The quality is fairly good, but the sound volume is only moderate. My problem with it is if I'm watching an action movie, I want the special effects to be LOUD and in your face. Even with the ear buds, the sound doesn't go above a moderate volume level. This doesn't only hurt movies and MP3s, but there are some games that have an sound ambiance that really benefits at high volume.. and the PSP doesn't deliver that. I understand that it may be the best technology could pack into such a small package with so many other functions, but for me sound is so important.

I do enjoy playing the PSP, the games are great, the graphics are great, and I expect great things in the future. For portable movies and music, however, I'll look elsewhere.

I give the PSP a 4/5. It's a great system, and lots of fun.


Edit: Since writing this review, Sony has released upgrades to the PSP firmware that provides a volume booster. This has largely corrected the one thing that I felt was a downside to this product.

  The Best Portable
Review created: 10/04/05

The PSP is truly amazing and has to be seen to be believed. It really is a PS2 that you can travel with and the resolution of the games is exactly the same! The screen is stunning and quite large. With it's widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio games, photos and videos jump to life.

Many great games are already out for the PSP such as the Tetris-like Lumines, Tiger Woods golf, and driving games Ridge Racer and Wipeout Pure. Recently, Madden 2006 was released and allows you to transfer your games back and forth from your PS2 so you can continue to play your season while you are away from home. And in just a few weeks the killer game for the system - Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories will be released. It's an entire GTA world just as big as the others with well over 40 hours of missions.

The PSP is also a portable media system. The PSP uses Memory Stick Duo cards and has a USB connection so it shows up as a hard drive when you connect it to your PC. If you copy over MP3 music files you can listen to them just like an iPOD. If you copy over JPEG or other image files you can also browse them on the larger screen. The PSP makes an excellent photo viewer since you can display the photos in their regualar aspect ratio or have them zoomed in to fill the screen. You can even zoom in and out on the photos to see all of the fine detail. On the internet you can get subway maps and the like specially formatted for the PSP. It's perfect if you have a Sony digital camera!

The PSP also has a built in web browser and wi-fi internet access. If you are anywhere where there is wireless internet access you can just power up your PSP and start surfing the web. Google, Yahoo, eBay all work great. You can even access your Yahoo, Hotmail, or Gmail accounts! Text entry is bit awkward (sort of like doing it on a cell phone) but there are supposed to be keyboards coming soon.

Sony has big plans for the PSP and look for new features such as a built-in email client, calendar, and contacts to be making their way to the PSP via its downloadable firmware updates.

Overall the PSP is the best portable gaming system around. While the DS and GameBoy are for little kids, the PSP has many more games and features for anyone over the age of 10.

  Sony Psp slim with video jack port
Review created: 10/06/08
by:

I love my sony PSP slim, this is my first one and so far I love it!!! You can put your own photos on it, own music, watch movies and browse the internet(I haven't figured out how to do that yet!) I also own a Nintendo DS and it just does not have the quality PSP has. Graphics on the PSP are crisp and clear and the stereo sound that it has is great. I would recommend the PSP to anyone that loves having all this in the palm of their hand(literely). I decided to buy the PSP slim because of the things it can do and because it's a SONY!!! Sony has the best quality (I think) that you can buy. When it comes to picture and sound quality why settle for less get the best!!!!Thank You

Well first off there was a false advertisement about the product. It was poorly described. I didn't find out to later after checking other websites that the product was in shambles. It was mainly my fault for purchasing something online like that especially at the price I got it for. But you live and learn.

  Good portable gaming, lots of extras
Review created: 08/07/08
by:

Is a good system if you want to game on the go. It also does wifi (although the browser is a pain to type in), can become a camera, or a GPS unit. veyr expandable. Some limitations on games, not all of them are made for PSP. Also, movies for PSP are being phased out, so they are cheap to get, but none of the really new titles are available. Plenty of cheap accessories available.
