I say it STARTING to become worth it if you are into it game-wise. I will let someone else say all the other crap it can do. I got mine as a gift, so I guess try to do that if you don't want to spend the money.
It's worth it alright. Some of the games are addictive, abusing the mp3 and video option is my habbit though. Hehehehehehehe....
I say no.
If you want it for music and mp3's than get an iPod.
If you want it for internet its not that good.
If you want it for movies just get a portable dvd player since most companies are cancelling production on umd's due to poor sales.
If you want it for games get a DS. There is absolutely no comparison what so ever in good games between the PSP and DS. The DS is blowing it away.
And im no Nintendo fanboy as i think the PS2 > Gamecube. :mog:
The PSP does a lot of things ok but none that really stand out. Its a 'jack of all trades' machine and an expensive battery powered paper weight.
Mine was £100, so yeah it was worth it! There are some decent games out there for it, BoF3, Darkstalkers, Lemmings. GTA, Tales of Eternia, and tons of others. Im a Sony fangirl, so I was going to purchase one sooner or later.
I would never use it for travel cause Id been terrified of getting it nicked. But I use it for when I visit my family and have bugger all to do. It depends on what you would use it for, games, music or video. Ive used it for all 3.
I'd save up for the PS3, it's gonna be costly. But it's also looking pretty awesome.
IMO, yes. The hours ive put into my PSP more then make up for the price tag.
I'd say no. Like Carmilla said, the DS has a great library and it'll only be getting better. It's getting huge support from Square, as E3 revealed! The PSP, though... it has such a crappy game library. If you aren't emulating PS1 games or SNES, there's no reason to get it for games alone.
1) to add on to the previous list given, there is also WWE:SvR'06, Burnout, Death Jr. Pursuit Force, Daxter, the Con, and Legend of Heroes to name a fewQuote:

Forgot to mention that, theres also a sequel on the way. And PoPoLoCrois is fun too.Quote:

best looking paper weight I ever bought.
I have a DS that is used and with my M3 it is way better than PSP.
Google M3 DS if you don't know what it is.
Is like to say... Is the Red Mage of the Handhelds! n.n, but I don't really care, if I can find one in this little city, I'll buy it! n.n, I really like Red Mages :pQuote:
