Do you plan on using this on the go? I ask because despite its portability I use my PSP only at home. But if you plan on doing some gaming on the go then it's definately worth it. If your question is, "Since I have a PS3 will PSP games be good enough to compete against them for my time?" Then my answer is I don't know. I'm kinda going through the opposite dillema, since I game mostly at home I'm wondering if I'm better off just playing consoles. I made a post asking how people divide their time between console and handheld gaming so you might want to look through my history and find that post as it kinda deals with this.

I would say look for these titles:

Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops-great MGS action game, great story, really good online play

Metal Gear Acid 1/2-good turn based stragety game, good story

Ace Combat X-great semi realistic air combat game, good graphics, good replay value

Ridge Racer-fun non realistic racing game

Killzone Liberation-great third person shooter game, fun multiplayer

Armored Core Formula Front-more of an engenering game though i enjoyed it and still play it today

Valykrie Profile-port of popular RPG, new CGI cutseans, worth it if didnt play it the first time

I use my PSP mabye 60% for games and 40% with all the other features on it. If your not going to use the web browser, music and video capability its probably not worth it. I get a lotta use out of it though so i think it justifies the cost.

And since you have a PS3, the PSP is definitely worth it! The PSP and PS3 can do tons of this together - you can access your PS3 hard drive from any wireless hotspot with your PSP, download PS1 games to your PSP, and more cool stuff

Yes it's definitely worth it. There's great games like GTA, Killzone, Medal of Honor, Call of Duty even though it's mediocre, i love it and much more
