PSP is going through a huge drought, why bother? PS3 is ramping up. Look at the lineup.

Dude, I've got a PSP [and] download games. I am telling you as a PIRATE that it's not worth it.

Have fun chuckling in the future.

I voted PS3 just to please Demi but go with a PSP or a new DS instead.

PSP, unless you want to watch Bluray movies. If so, then get a PS3.

I'd say go with the PSP... you'd probably get a kick out of Mega Man: Powered Up, Crush, Lumines, Every Extend Extra, Gradius Portable, and Gurumin, and it's a helluva lot cheaper than a PS3.

how close does a $100 voucher get you to a PS3?
I assume it covers more of the psp.
maybe that's a factor , maybe it's not.

And anyone who thinks Crush is merely ok is a turd eater. Pure and simple. It's the only question on the 100 question "are you a turd eater?" questionairre that actually is used to determine if you really are a turd eater.

That and "are you encouraging people to buy a PS3?"



You should quit trolling, poo licker.

40G PS3s are $675, probably a waste of money, only want one for Blu-ray playback and MGS4. Apperently component cables arent even fucking included = fail

PSP lites are $299 so $100 off is nice, checked out mem stick prices and they are 100 bux for a few gig too... but since I dont have acess to a psp phat its gonna be  afew months before I can hack the thing, so that = have to buy some games too which = more $$$ spent

a DS lite is the cheapest option, I play my DS heaps... but my old pink DS phat is getting pretty knackered, the touch screen is going and the buttons are really well worn. Ive got around 40 DS games so a DS lite with the nice screen and stuff makes sense too....

im pretty much going to go for the PSP I think

the irony is that i just saw a sony report that includes the PS3 version of that very game in amongst it's "killer titles for 2008"



I may like my future PS3, but I'm not that distinguished mentally-challenged

My cousin picked up an 80 gigger--the MotorStorm bundle. 

He updated the firmware....

Bricked.

He had to send it to Sony for repairs after spending time troubleshooting the problem with customer service at Sony.

I'd say go for the PSP.  it has a shitload to pirate for a portable (even SNES games!) plus it doesn't look like there's much to interest you on the PS3.  there's MGS but that'll come to 360 a little later and I'd imagine it'll only be a year before PS3 gets another price drop for bluray movies.  however if you really want bluray movies than PS3 is the obvious choice.  even then you might want to get a PSP on top of it (depending on how much less it costs) for the PSP-PS3 connectivity stuff.

I just spent two hours at the mall, decided to wait until after xmas to buy my PSP because I'll probably get a better deal

honestly, if I bought a PS3 it would only be to watch Blu-rays, there is not one exclusive game that interests me, only MGS4 and that isnt even out yet. Oh thats right Im paying for potential, that changes everything

You bought a 360 and it died right out of the box. You're paying for nothing, lol
