Buying a PSP soon

Thanks for the info, I don't really know too much about the new slim, is it really worth it? Will it be like the difference in the ds phat and the ds lite or what?TheVelvet

I'm getting a psp on august 28th with MHF2!! YAY!! but trust me the new PSP is not woth it...also I would recomend:

-stealth case

-MHF2 great game!!

-killzone liberation

-1-2 gig memory stick

-wifiMAX use it and Xlink Kai to play MHF(2) online!!

-or don't bother getting a case and just don't wreck it...

I havea DS and I said that I would'nt get a light and I did'nt cause it sucks just like the PSP slim ... hell I might wait til september 10th and buy a reg. PSP just topissoff the fanboys lol!!

I've got an old PSP and I think there's enough new stuff on the new one for me to get it. It'll be slimmer and lighter, but most importantly it'll have more internal memory. It also has the ability to output video to the TV, although you'll have to buy the cables separately. The other difference is that the UMD door is no longer spring loaded.

Pros:
- more processing power than DS
- absolutely gorgeous screen, although I wish the refresh rate was higher
- plays movies (only mp4 and UMD), music and pictures
- built in Wi-Fi and web browser (b standard)

Cons:
- pricey compared to DS
- games aren't as "innovative" as DS games....although I can't say I like most DS games
- probably more fragile than DS so hard case is a must

You can use PSP Video 9 (free) to encode movies. I eventually went and bought a commercial program that didn't hiccup as much. As for music, I use the open source program CDex to rip into the mp3 format. The PSP also handles wma files.

well what i recommended is getting....

wait if you go to game stop andb a mem u can get gud discounts off used

games plus they never break if they do put it together with tape =)

The only real problems the PSP has is that the battery life is rubbish and that you can't use it in daylight on a sunny day.

Memory stick really depends on what you will be using it for. For just save games the standard small 32mb (i think) is big enough.

If you are going to do some of the more advanced stuff with the PSP, a bigger card is well worth the money.

A case is recommended, although I found the system to be stronger than it looks - i dropped mine onto concrete floor (not recommended) and the thing was fine

DON'T I REPEAT DON'T get a WI-FI Max! Buy a router that acctually works and dosen't take an computer IQ of over 180 or somin' to get working! You can buy a cheap router for that price!

EMZ:)

P.S DO NOT get a Wi-Fi max they don't work!

okay clearly you don't know how to set it up properly jackass!!

it does work and you don't need a router for it to work just a PC and an internet conection...IT DOES INDEED WORK...^_^

but if your not going to play MHF(2) online then a cheap router may be better

also do you know what XlinkKai is...

Xlink Kai+wifiMAX=great online expeirence trust me!!
