Video Game Reviews of PlayStation Portable Core (PSP 1000)

Customer Review: Superb unit!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm really pleased with the PSP. Just about everything is exactly what I wanted. Music quality is great, videos are easy to convert using the free PSP Video 9, output to television is superb. The only downsides are the wireless internet browser, which, while it connects, is problematic and the need to enter text using a crude letter by letter approach.

Customer Review: ... hmmmm
Summary: 3 Stars

The psp is by far the most handy portable game system when it comes to being able to play music and show pictures but when push comes to shove there are some flaws that can make even a patient gamer mad. The three biggest ones are

1. The battery life is too short and even though you can get other batteries you shouldn't have to in the first place.

2. Loading screens are common and some take FOREVER!

3. to get video on it you have to use CRACKLE a online video site like youtube or you have to get a special program that costs money.

Now you may say that i am being too harsh so let me tell you some good things about it.

1. there is online play in a fare amount of the games and it is quite fun.

2. there is a very great web browser on this system and it is useful for a kid that wants to check his email on the road.

3. Some of the best games for this system are now under 20 dollars

Over all i am glad that i have traded in my Nintendo DS for a PSP but as i have found neither system is perfect but time will see both of them do great things.

Customer Review: A multimedia powerhouse
Summary: 5 Stars

This machine will do everything! Movies, games, music web... I even use it to edit myspace and AIM on the go. Straight out of the box it is simply awesome, and with some easy modification it opens up to infinite possibilities. If you are considering a purchase, go get one from a real store as they only cost 169.99,not as much as these pirates. I'm kinda happy to have written this using my PSP.

Customer Review: Here's a Tip

Buy used games and books from merchants, but not gaming systems! Buy them from an actual store or directly from Amazon or other reputable online site (not from a third party). This area is for product reviews (to help people in decision making). Take complaints directly to amazon and the 3rd party merchant you chose. The only time I had a problem with a merchant (wrong product description), Amazon took care of it (plus I got a refund). Your problem can't be handled in the review area. The end :o)
