NFR: Should I get a PSP...
« on: December 02, 2005, 10:20:55 PM »

Being that i will be buying my wife a Ipod Nano for christmas she has generously offered to buy me a PSP.   I was wondering if anyone has one and if they reccomend them.  I figure they are good to have for fishing trips.. Wondering what you guys thought about it and if the cost is justified.... Also they say that they have WiFi capability but i was wondering if you can log on to a website and play people from all over the world of if the person had to be close by???


what do you say...

i have one my self and they are coool. but id rather spend the 350$ on somehting else. the graphics are good and what not. u can get the internet downloaded on it as well. and im not sure if u can play people all over the world. not sure. they are cool though but im not into the gamming thing myself.

for wi-fi gaming so far, i love the nintendo ds. i have a psp but mainly use it to watch umd movies, which come in handy on long plane rides. the psp is a lot harder to use, but the screen is bigger and clearer. the nintendo ds is super easy to use and the touch screen and voice feature is awesome for some games.  the psps is super heavy, but looks really sharp, and just like the nano ipod, the screen scratches super easy, so getting a screen protector for it would be a good idea.

If you want to get your son the best gift..........Get him an xbox and HALO 2, great single player and multi player game. Dont forget the xbox live kit, youll probably see alot less of your son after he gets this.

Why would I buy him an XBOX when the XBOX 360 is out now. He is 9 years old and I wouldnt let him play Halo. My wife tried to get the XBOX 360 and stood in line for it but they were sold out before they got to her. I will buy the XBOX 360 in the new year sometime. He already has a Gamecube and I have a PS2. I wanted to get him a portable though. The PSP is great because it does multiple things and is not just a portable game player. He can watch movies, listen to music and play games. Cant go wrong with it.

Ditch the PSP, which would only entertain you for a few years. Get a new fishing rod, which will keep you entertained for many decades. ;D
