I like the look of them and everything, but is there a big difference between them and the PSP? What are new features they have other than a lot more memory? I just wanna know if I'm gonna get my money's worth out of this handheld.

I think the psp go is still on sale on dell if your interested. Only $169. Very good deal if you don't have a psp yet. And Assassin's Creed bundle is only $139. Decide carefully.

no do not get the go for the following reasons:

1) You do NOT have access to the full psp library you miss out on some great titles including the upcoming KH birth by sleep which is umd only

2) locked into play station store prices so old games for the psp that you can get for less the $20 and in many cases less then $10 on amazon.com you have to pay full price for them in the online store.

3)The psp go is overpriced at $250 you could get a frikken ps3 for $50 more.

So in conclusion save your self money and get the psp 300

Between yes and no; the disadvantage is no UMD, the advantage is you can use the browser less restrictively.

Consider it as an expansion pack, but you have to pay the full price.

It's worth it if you want better portability, DD only (if you delete a game, you can re-buy it for free) faster loading times, better screen, Dualshock-ish button layout, a fancier XMB, bla bla bla... I loved mine, but I lost it :cry:

If you want portability get a Go. If you want inexpensive used games, get a 3000.

no its basically a PSP 3000 but more expensive, a shorter battery life and no USB support.

PSP 3000 has built in 16 GB memory, bluetooth, that clock thing, and save-state function? *changes mind about not buying a 3000*
