Hello. I had recently broken my DSL and am possibly looking at buying a PSP. I dont know too much about except for the general stuff. Can I get some good reasons to buy one please?

PSP's are definitely the best handheld out.
Some of the best features are the wifi internet capabilities, and the mp3/mp4 support.
You can watch videos, listen to your music library and surf the web on the psp. And I haven't even mentioned gaming yet.
The graphics are (in my opinion) at least twice as good as DS. You can also play multiplayer with other psp's nearby you, and psp's allover the world using infrastructure.
If you're into classic gaming you can also homebrew your psp.
with a homebrew firmware (read about it in these forums) you can get emulators for classic nes games, ps1 games, and even homemade games!

Thanks. How is the wifi on the PSP for online game? I havnt really heard to much about it. Is it laggy or something, what is the best PSP game for online FPS, racing? I am a fan of the Halo, COD, and fable/oblivion type of series(I enjoy FPS and RPGs in that format, not so much of a FF fan though). What would be a good starting game for me?

I liked Socom for the PSP, I liked Socom 1 better than Socom 2 in some ways(like online play) but Socom 2 better in others(like campaign).

Also, nice list chandler.

Yah, I was thinking of MOH, it was getting 7's in most places so I really didn't know. I will probably also get socom, I dont know which one to get really.

Monkey Business · 08-04-2007, 08:19 PM

If i had to choose one it would be socom because the gameplay is very good and the online with the headset is great.

I'd say get Killzone Liberation. It's very very good. Check out the reviews if you dont believe me
