Allright, I would say for all of them...But I only got one game, I don't use the net, or any of the other features. I just use it as my MP3 player... *shrug*

For all that. It had the franchises I liked and more games of my taste than the DS currently has.

To balance out my handheld games since it's much different from the DS. Extra features were kind of a bonus. So far I've been terribly disappointed though.

Laughable easy to modify was the main reason
It also has a handful of decent games.

I got my psp for my birthday because my parents could not find a wii. At first i was dissapointed but then i got some games and fell in love w/ the system. I also had a 2 gig card which i loaded w/ music and videos and used it at school for a long time. Now that i have a ipod i dont use those features as much anymore. I also own all most all of the good games for the system. i just beat god of war for it so i probably wont be touching the system for a while now, but im fine with that. ive enjoyed the system for what its worth.

I got mine mainly for gaming. Back in the day it always seemed crazy to me that the home consoles (XBox, PS1 & 2, Gamecube) had great graphics and gameplay, but in a handheldall we had was the Gameboy with its subpar quality (I don't care how colorful it was, it still only had NES level graphics/gaming). So when Sony came out with the PsP I got it cuz it was like having a Ps2 in the palm of my hands- one I could play ANYWHERE I wanted. The fact that it has so many other features just makes it even more enjoyable to own.

I primarily picked it up for God of War: Chains of Olympus and Patapon. I resisted for so long because there really is nothing else I want to play on the system, but not that I have one I will have to investigate the games more closely.

Games. However, over time, I slowly learned how to use all its features and it became a gadget that I bring around everywhere.

I used to have a PSP fat but i sold it due to the lack of games that intrigue me, but recently there has been quite an increase of games i enjoy that are out on the PSP or will be soon, so i bought a slim not too long ago for these new games.

I will buy one for the games, I already have 220 dollars saved up. Soon...

My DS has become a giant pile of crap lately, since few good games have come out in like a year (zelda and pearl, and they werent that good) and nothing new has been anounced that looks atleast fun. All this while my psp was stolen just before thebatch of great psp games started with rocloco and MPO.

The last handheld system I owned was the original Nintendo Gameboy when I was a kid. When the new PSP slim system was released I decided I wanted to give owning another portable system a shot and the quality of the PSP was what appealed to me as well as the games associated with the system.
