A solid portable made by Sony to rival that of the Nintendo handheld monopoly. With many Nintendo fanboy's flaming it on this site, its easy to think its a peice of crap. Its not. Its a solid peice of equipment that is for the more mature gamer. Like hte Xbox equivenalant VS the gaemcube. Im not flaming Nintendo, nor Sony.
Pros:
Extreme graphics
Multimedia Functions
Great Games
Good Name Behind Them
Cons:
Low Battery Life (6-8 hours)
Expensive Memory Units
(i myself have 256mg. Card)
A Wealth Of Nintendo Fanboys Flaming It
Expensive Unit ($200-250)
(note: Im not trying to flame Nintendo or Sony, Im just saying NINTENDO FANBOYS SUCK)
Kid-Wow! You got a PSP?

A status symbol for nerds with money to burn. I got rid of mine after I found out just how Sony planned to support it. (READ: Poorly) and how they treat anyone who tries to support it well (i.e Lik-Sang)
Sony fanboys delude themselves into thinking that anyone who hates the system is either "poor" or, "a kid" who must own a DS. Which hurts when you use your gaming choice as a measure of your own self-worth.
One common insult, is to attack a person's wealth (and thus, their worth)
The thing is, if you can afford to buy a PSP you can afford a DS (eventually games and accessories destroy any accusations of poverty. Poor people don't buy video games, it goes in with the whole "not having money thing". (surprise!)
The difference is, while the DS owners are busy playing more new games, the only thing PSP owners seem to have are emulated 15 year old games FROM NINTENDO and a Grand Theft Auto port, and you need to hack the thing to play the old games! (and updating firmware, which is required to play the newer games, negates you're ability to hack. And "bricking" the system, which fanboys seem to glaze over is quite common.
You'd think being such "big spenders" (and thus, better than you) they could afford portable DVD players and all the great features that PSP has only much much better. If PSP players are so wealthy, then why don't they buy an Alienware laptop?
It's like a guy with a cool car mocking a guy with scooter, while a guy with 5 luxury cars, a yacht and a helicopter in earshot just shakes his head.
PSP is a like a hummer. Looks cool but runs out of gas before you leave the driveway.
DS is like a sensible, comfortable car. Isn't as flashy but better in what's important.
DS section of store: lined with games not all great but the ratio of good to bad blows PSP away.
PSP section of store: slim section filled with 60-70% movies you already have on DVD with one or two good games swimming a small collection of poorly to average-rated ports.
Most PSP owners are more concerned with appearing cool (which they don't, neither do DS owners). They think ownership of such, makes them better some how, which is sad on so many levels. They wear their ownership of a fucking game console as a badge on honor. It's not.
PSP fanboy: You're just angry you can't afford a PSP.
ME: Actually I owned an imported white PSP and I used it as a 250 dollar MP3 player.
PSP fanboy 2: u phail n00b go play kidee gamez on ur DS PSP pwnz joo!!111!
Me: *marvels at irony of FB2 calling anything I do "kiddie" (Castlevania?) owns me, Really? Why?
Well spoken fanboy: Because you can hack the firmware and emulate SNES games on it for starters.
Me: No kidding? and you find paying $250 for a portable high-end system just to play 15-20 year old Nintendo/Sega games on the go, is worth it?
Fanboy 3: PSP is the best portable ever it owns.
Me: Sounds more like PSP "owns" you.

Overrated handheld made by Sony. Drooled by Sony fanboys who only care about graphics, not gameplay.
It has a shitty, half-baked mp3 and video interface, and you're forced to buy expensive memory sticks in order to play them. Also, the battery life is 3-6 hours, and the loading times are horrible.
Moron: HEY MAN! I just got a Sony PSP along with a 1GB memory stick with a couple of games!!!!
Me: Holy shit dude how much did you spend?
Moron: Only about $500
Me: *smacks him in the head*

Sony Computer Entertainment's Playstation Portable.
Designed as a multimedia device, it is one of the most powerful platforms available on the market. Well developed games boast near PS2-quality in graphics and sound, and gameplay is varied and entertaining. Supports MP4 and Mp3 video and audio formats, and displays JPEGs, GIFs, and TIIF files. Recent firmware updates allowed the use of a full web browser that uses the internal wireless ethernet card to run off of a 802.11b network. Often criticized to be fragile or plagued by low battery life. However, when running at optimal levels, conservative screen brightness and volume settings, underclocked processor, battery life is well within nominal parameters. Obviously, running with the volume and brightness maximized and the wireless card active will drain battery life much quicker, but it isn't nearly as bad as many authors have made it out to be. The real strength lies in the PSP's homebrew potential. While constantly policed by Sony in the form of prohibitive firmware updates, extremely bright and resourceful hackers such as Dark_Alex and Booster were/are able to thwart Sony's efforts. Homebrew allows one to run nonstandard programs ranging form custom firmwares that allow the psp to be used at its full potential, to hardware emulators allowing people to play SNES, and other older consoles. Homebrew allows people to really innovate and it shows what people can do when presented a powerful resource. PSP games can be extremely fun and innovative. Games such as Lumines or Loco Roco push the limits of what people can imagine, and others like Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops push the envelope in terms of graphics and playability. The PSP proves that innovation doesn't need a gimmick.
The PSP is the maligned creation of Sony.
I bought a PSP for 250 USD. It was worth every cent of it.
Prima: *Playing his PSP*
Secunda: "Hey that's pretty cool, those graphics look almost as if they were on a console!"
Prima: "Yeah, but it's not just graphics. I can do many things all in one package. Then with the work of extremely talented crackers and programmers, I can do much more!"
Tertia: "OMG!11 YUOR PSP SUXX0RZ!11 IT HAS NO BATTERY LIFE! LOL DISC READ ERROR!11 I'm going to go play a bad port of a N64 game. LOL, INNOVATIV!"

Piece of Shit Portable System.
Basically Sony is out for your money. They crammed a whole bunch of shit that you don't need or already have into one thing that lasts about 2 hours.
You can easily have a computer that plays, games, music, and a digital camera or a camera phone that takes pictures and it'll last much much longer. So why buy one? Ask yourself that, and get a DS!
Me: Look at that kid sitting in the cornor playing PSP all buy himself.
Friend: I can't believed he pissed his money on that piece of shit!
Me: Oh well let's get back to Metriod Prime Hunters Online with the Nintendo DS and Pwn some fools!
