Oh God PSP 3000 so AWESOME

[cool breeze]

I would probably trust you two more than the other pixel counter people out there, but I'm still glad I held off buying the silver one at launch.  Well, I never planned to in the first place because I already have a Silver slim PSP and it looks bad.  I hope that if there actually is a problem (I haven't seen it in person yet), it does get fixed before I buy the black entertainment bundle.

It's a minor hardware update and it looks like they have essentially traded one problem for another.  And if it still isn't hackable yet, who gives a fuck?  Until it is the 2000 series is where it's at.

why would anyone looking to upgrade want to trade off one flaw for another? that's fucking dumb.

sony could get the f'n screen right if they really wanted to, but i guess they don't.



i can still see it.

IGN reviews the 3000 and ultimately recommends going with the 2000 instead: http://gear.ign.com/articles/923/923225p1.html

Can't you switch between the different color modes if you don't like the enhanced style? what is that IGN review talking about?

[bork]

You can but the scanline issue is still there.  It looks horrific in screenshots but then the ghosting shown does too and it isn't that bad.  I can't judge it until I play one for myself, but the fact that there is this much of an outcry over it means something is up.

Yeah it means gamers are fucking distinguished mentally-challenged

[cool breeze]

well, then that IGN review is even more stupid than I thought it was.  The guy claims right there that he saw the issue because it was pointed out.

[Jansen]

how is the ign review stupid? the reviewer clearly states that he noticed the scanline issues right away. given the wording of the review he would have noticed the issue even if no one had complained about it already.

Well, I haven't seen the 3000 in person myself, but I'd rather have scanline issues then ghosting. Massive ghosting really really sucks.

[MrAngryFace]

scanline issue = pathetic NERD RAGE. No Ghosting > Scanline issue I cant even fucking notice without some nerd from a shitty webzine telling me about it.

[Sho Nuff]

Man I wish I could see one of these things so I could tell whether or not this is something to wet my pants over

[Jansen]

haha you can't even preorder the piano black 3000 anymore. if they fix this shit i'll be laughing my ass off when i get one with NO GHOSTING OR SCANLINES.
