is it still worth buying? because i really want one , of course, i discovered this too late to ask for it for christmas, and although i have enough money, the parents are iffy
Depends on what you want, if your into fighters, get one, definately. If you want more original titles that arent rehashes or linked with other console games, then you could wait a little longer. If none of that bothers you though, get one, theres alot of great games on the system and alot of good games to come.
LocoRoco is all the reason you need to buy a PSP.
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth.
It would be reason enough for me.
If you could just buy one portable, I don't see why you wouldn't get a DS. The PSP looks wonderful on paper, but I am starting to doubt Sony will even be able to support it, especially when you consider some of the great games on the DS.
For the record, I don't have a DS, but I do own a PSP, which is currently collecting dust in my room.
PSP's are good, DS's are equally as good, try either.
As Dreddz said, if you're a fan of fighting games, it's definitely a good system to buy. There's a lot of homebrewed programs for it, too, so you might want to check that out.
The only reason anybody would buy a PSP over a DS is because they are being loyal to the Sony brand. The PSP is a fine machine with a lot of potential, but it just doesn't have the software to compete with what the DS can put out there. I don't think anyone would advise buying the PSP over the DS unless they had an agenda, and I will just leave it at that.
I would buy a PSP, but after the creator of Ico, and Shadow of the Colossus will make the game he said he want to do for it.
