i like it a lot. i never imagined in a thousand years id like the psp because a lot of the games didnt really interest me but i went ahead and bought one anyways because my little cousin gave me parapa the rapper...before i actually got it.

so i went and bought a used psp 2000. i really didnt need a microphone or screen glare reduction (psp3000) but i didnt want that super fat 1000 so the 200 was just right for me. anyways i got an 8 gig memory stick and i dl'ed some games. so now i also have Final Fantasy Tactics and the original street fighter alpha. must have classics for me! but i like the way it integrates with the ps3 and everything....wow its just a great handheld. Plus its nice to finally have a handheld system again since i havent owned one since the days of the original gameboy....oh no wait, i didhave the original gameboy color! but that was back then.

anybody recommend me some more good games to get for the psp that are original and not some rehash from the ps2 or ps3?

EDIT: playing FF tactics right now and LOVING IT! :D

Bloody Roar (it is fun, for me at least), Final Fantasy Dissidia, Mega Man POWERED UP!, Lumines, Final Fantasy Crisis Core, Phantasy Star Portable. That is just some from the top of my head. Wish you luck dude!

yeah i tried a demo of that dissidia and that was pretty good. i enjoyed it...it(the whole game) kinda felt like the final fight at the end of advent children between cloud and sephiroth, thats actually what made it soo cool. is the whole game designed like that? almost like the old school dragonball z games. ill definatly get the megaman game and im a big fan of phantasy star....good choices man, thanks a lot! ill check them out at my local GS or better yet i have a local mom and pop store that sells used games, ill see if i can get them cheaper there first after i look up the prices online from GS

the Go isnt justifiable for the price it's selling at, thats why i didnt wait and got a silver psp 3000 dissidia bundle a week ago =D

If you like Megaman consider getting Maverick Hunter X. You can probably find it for like $10 now and I like it a lot.

Congrats. I'm playing Crinsom Gem Saga, and it's suprisingly good. A well made old school turn based RPG.

yeah i wasnt really interested in the Go for a few reasons. its got a smaller screen and the price is so much more than what i paid for my psp (120bucks) but still im liking the version i got. its slim and like i said i dont need a mic or the glare reduction.

The PSP platform has matured and there is now a decent library of games available. It took years, but finally great shooters have/are appearing on the PSP. I'm currently working my way through some older titles (SHO, GOW, Syphon Filter, etc.) and having a blast. I dumped my fat PSP which was collecting dust anyways and bought the PSP 3000, a great handheld, no scanline issues either.
