considering the purchase of a psp, which one should i get.

Get a PSP Go, you'll find it's save state function useful, and it's screen has a better resolution than other PSPs.

get 3000,coz not all games to available be downloaded from PSN

The Go is a neat piece of new hardware, but it's generally $100 more than the other models (when purchased new, I see you are considering an eBay purchase) and because of licensing problems you will be limited on the games in the PSP library if you decide on the Go - Sony will not be making the entire back catalogue available - so research what titles interest you and go (no pun intended) from there. If you decide to get a 1000-3000, you can take the money you save not buying the newer Go and put it into expanded memory or used games. The 1000-3000 have larger screens than the Go, but otherwise basically all the same funtionalities with a few minor exceptions like lacking Bluetooth conectivity of things like headsets for talking in online gaming or using Skype. All models can access content from PSN, and there is no exclusivity to the Go in terms of what's on the PSN so it's not like you will be missing out if you buy 100-3000. I have a 2000 and I am perfectly content.

One thing I might caution you about in buying used over the Internet - The analog nubs on the PSP are notorious for having trouble if abused by the owner. Make sure anything you buy over the net when it comes to game systems has some sort of recourse whould something be broken when you recieve it. I personally would rather buy a PSP from a store (even a used one) where I could go back if i found out something was amiss. But that's me.

Hope this helps a bit. It's not everything to consider but it's what I can come up with off the top of my head at the moment.

Get one that plays UMDs. You'll have the most games available to you.

A 3000 is probaby your best bet.

I bought a 3000 yesterday. $199 cdn new. Limited Rock Band Unplugged edition. Comes with the game and a 4 GB memory stick. The other Limited editions only had a 2 GB memory stick.

ok heres the deal, after about 8 months i am getting really bored of my ipod touch, so i am going to sell it on ebay, and with the leftover money i will buy a psp. the thing is i will be buying off ebay and the 1000 models are the cheapest, but im not sure which model to buy, can anyone help me out here.hawkboy_4

It all comes down to game availability in the end. Psp 3000 has all the games available compared to the psp go, So check first to see if the games you like are already available on the Psn.

The prices for bought are just the same imo, if you factor the memory card, data cable and a game more or less. Also amazon has a psp go for less than $249, sometimes it's only $209 or less when they have it on sale.

If game is important to you then get a psp3000, everything else pspgo.

I'd recommend getting the PSP 3000 or even a PSP 2000 you get more games for those PSP systems the PSP GO is not worth it in my opinion the Playstation Store is still missing some great quality titles not forgetting the downloads are more expensive then the UMD versions.

Please, please, PLEASE, just buy a PSP 3000, I BEG of you.

ok so it looks like the psp 3000 is the best choice out there. i have a few questions about it. how long is the battery life, how long can i play before the battery drains? is it heavy to carry around in your pocket? how many online games are there? is it posible to get msn or ebuddy on there, and check your email inbox without typing: hotmail or gmail in the browser. and navagating to there site. say the batterys on 20-30% how long does it take to charge it back up to 100%hawkboy_4

Oh and just to add something, there was a PSP Go on display at Best Buy, I tried it out, the buttons felt really bad, they weren't raised like on xbox/playstation controllers and on the psp, really disliked the feeling of it. Also I recommend you get the 3000, it's only $170 and I'm sure you can find one cheaper if you look around.

As a dude who wears Girls Skinny Jeans... I can safely say a PsP 3000 will MOST likely fit in your pockets. As for memory upgrades I'm not sure... I think the PsP go has an internal Memory, where as the 3000 hasthat MicroSD slot or whatever.So the 3000 will maximize your Upgrade-ability where as a PsP go will just fit in your pocket with no hardcore features.

Any other questions I can try and Help with?

Don't mean to jump off topic, but with the amount of threads in regards "which psp should I buy," does anybody else think Sony may have shot themselves in the foot? It seems they are losing potential sales. If people are hesitant in buying a psp of any sorts and enough time passes, nintendo may show something that steals the sale.

It's really big to fit in the pocket (esp the jeans you wear). You also risk of breaking the screen bec. of its big size.

also you can upgrade the pspgo's space viamemory stick micro m2. The only major difference is the UMD. I think the TC is going with the Psp3000 or 2000 basing on the other topic. lol.
