PlayStation Portable (PSP) Entertainment Pack Reviews
dude, you are lacking friends LMAO. OMG where are you on this planet earth. you would be in another world you say the nintendo is better than the psp. but come on my bro has it and my psp EATS it. yea it has been out for many yrs the nin dc. come on man.
I'm a picky person when it comes to this. You can check Sony's servers for updates through the "Network Update" function on the top of the Settings menu. With some games, you can play multiplayer online (Socom comes to mind), and with all multiplayer games, you can link PSPs to smash the heck out of some n00bs, through Ad-Hoc mode. Games: This is one of the few points where the PSP falls short. The sound quality out of the little speakers is not good at all (they boosted the quality in the Slim model by moving the speakers responsible for treble near the top, but still). I don't use AVLS (the option that sets a limit on how high you can turn it up) and it still turns up quiet. With the custom firmware, you can emulate DS games, but prepare for it to slow down.
Video: I haven't watched UMD movies on this thing, but by judging some home-made PSP tutorials that I watched, professional video would look amazing on this. The sound quality is decent when you plug this thing into a set of external speakers, but volume falls short. Networking on this thing is amazing, with firmware updates you browse the internet, stream internet radio using Shoutcast, and even use Skype (with the newest firmware). All in all, a good portable developed by Sony.
The Xross Media Bar is second-notch when it comes to organization, I prefer the Xbox 360 blade system personally. Photo: Pictures look absolutely stunning on this thing. HDR looks the best (understandably), but a bunch of stills and backgrounds I found on the internet look freaking amazing on this thing. The selection of games is lackluster at best. Networking: Here's where the PSP shines. There are a few good games (like GTA: Vice City Stories or Need for Speed), but the rest I'd probably find boring or not really all that interesting.
Music: Another thing that the PSP falls short on. The PSP is more capable in this regard (custom firmware), but a lot of the stuff that custom firmware used to have is now being dished out by Sony. A powerhouse of a portable system, the PSP is the most capable of all portable handhelds to date. Too bad the sounds not all that great, but I usually manage. Of course, you have to be in a WiFi zone, but those are popping up everywhere now.
If the PSP did that, I might be a little more excited about it's MP3 player capabilities. First you've got to buy the system itself. If you've been gaming since before they became entertainment centers, it doesn't have to be said. You also don't have to keep your eye on two screens at a time, which some might find to be a plus for the PSP. It isn't quite as powerful as a PS2, but it is certainly more powerful than the Nintendo DS in that regard. The PSP's UMD format isn't as fantastic as a DVD either. So my reason for getting a PSP was only for the games.
The Widescreen is perfect for viewing movies on your PSP. Not only that, but the PSP doesn't play songs while you play your game. but a UMD. This is speaking to the hardcore gamers, of course. The only major difference is there's a screen in the middle.
No discount because the movie is a bestseller. Even worse, the PSP battery doesn't last that long anyway. I don't travel a lot, I've already got 10 DVD players (if you include my gaming systems and computers), and music up the wazoo. They just don't sell as well as DVD's. What hurts the PSP the most, however, is it's mediocre library of games.
The most obvious thing, of course, is the screen itself. This shouldn't be. Yet it's still got some of the same problems it's had for over a year. Gaming is all about the games, no matter what anyone says. Yet, with all this stuff, the PSP is still not up to snub with the Nintendo DS. It's more technologically advanced than the DS. Is the PSP good. Even better with the PSP's technology is how the games look.
The PSP strikes out in the gaming department. You can plug in your head phones and trump around with your PSP as if it were some kind of CD Player or iPod. Certainly it is, but can it stack up for gamers in terms of what's important. That can be questionable. It's sad to say, but it isn't. Until then, I wouldn't suggest a PSP just yet.
The MP3 player doesn't sort the music by artist, album, song or anything like that. Long road trip. Say you don't want a portable DVD player, you can use your PSP instead, and it works just as well as a portable DVD player. It's fantastic in that it can play movies, MP3s and go online, but for the hardcore gamer, this system misses the most important aspects: A great library of games.
It's like carrying around an entire entertainment center in your pocket. There are few good original titles (Daxter comes to mind), and even some of the original titles might not hold up entirely. I'd rather play a good quality game than one that just "looks cool.". UMD's also cost more money. A decent portable DVD player actually cost less than the PSP itself.
You can view a UMD movie on the way. The horizontal layout works much better than the vertical layout in the handheld market. Most of the games on the PSP also have horrible load times. So even if you take it on a road trip, you'll need a car charger in order to keep watching your movie (if it's a long movie).
The games look really good, but there just aren't enough to go around. The PSP can also play MP3s. Not only do these images show up very well, but the screen is widescreen. GTA: Liberty City stories, for example, was ported to the PS2. As much as I like the ability for the system to play MP3s, I've already got an MP3 player, and I don't want to go through the hassle of transfering all my music.
UMD's don't sell very well anyway, and most major studios are considering putting a halt to producing for the UMD format. Most of its games are either on the PS2 (Tomb Raider Legends) or they're ports and re-releases (Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X). This is really nice for those who don't have an MP3 Player or an iPod or something like that. The system is fantastic, but at the moment: still not worthwhile. Almost always thirty dollars when you go to the video store. People with big hands have it easier with a horizontal layout than a vertical.
If anyone were to try and convince you to get a PSP, they certainly wouldn't be able to do it if they're in it for the games. The great thing about that screen is the quality is fantastic. Almost like carrying around a PS2 in your pocket. In a way, it feels like holding a PS2 controller. Then you've got to get a decent memory stick and then you need a game to get started (50 dollars). Let's take a look at what the PSP can do, shall we. For one thingas so many have pointed outto get started with the PSP cost a lot of money.
To get things off the ground for your PSP it will cost you. When I buy a system, I'm not concerned about the bells and whistles. They're powerful. This might actually be because people also want special features which a UMD doesn't have.
You might find a DVD on sale. Images show up clear and colorful. The PSP is a brilliant system, yet for what it's worth, it's lack of games will make your average gamer want to wait a while. Technology wise, the PSP is a wonder to behold.
Yet the library is severely limited. Also, you can't organize it the way you want. Any self-respecting gamer will buy a PSP more for the games than the bells and whistles.
Great syatem with very few if any problems. The system is very durable but some scratches can not be prevented without a protective cover. They are cheap ($15) Buy one, you will not be dissapointed. Only one recomendation, buy a protective cover for the screen or the entire system. I have had my PSP for 4 months now and play it for 2-3 hours daily.
It features a number of games, as well as UMD format movies, plus the capabilities to hold music and movie files. Sony's Playstation line of video game home consoles is arguably the world's finest. Sega and SNK learned this lesson the hard way, and Sony is in the process of learning it now. This is EXTREMELY annoying, and to make things worse, you can't even do the update if your battery is low. Two years after launch, we're still talking about POTENTIAL.
Sony released the Playstation Portable in America in early 2005. In addition to the steadily growing library of games, you can also purchase UMD movies for the system, as well as use it for music and movies file. It seems like the number of extremely good games is limited, and the few that are great are usually ports/reworkings of PS2 games. The PSP is available in both its original size, and the lighter, more compact version. Thumbs down. Despite a few gems in the rough, for the most part the PSP library is lackluster.
Did you just get home from the game store and want to play your new game. -THE GOOD:. Get one of those if you plan to get the system. OVERVIEW:. EDITION NOTES:. -EXTREMELY POWERFUL GRAPHICALLY FOR A HANDHELD. -UMD VIDEO SUCKS.
-PISS-POOR BATTERY LIFE. Sony seems to be phasing out this aspect of the system, which is a wise move, but just the same, DID SONY LEARN NOTHING FROM THE FAILURE OF GAME BOY ADVANCE VIDEO. On average I can't even play for more than two hours before it dies. INTRODUCTION:. -MORE THAN JUST A GAME SYSTEM. The Playstation 1, 2, and 3 have all taken the world by storm. TOO BAD. You've got to install the update first, and if your battery is low, you're out of luck.
It doesn't live up to the hype. Sony claims that the newer, lighter versions of the system have better battery life, but I haven't seen an improvement. This can be seen through the mediocre games available on the systems, and the poor design of the unit itself. OVERALL:. While this system has definitely had more of a fighting chance than any other non-Nintendo handheld on the American market, it just falls flat.
The actual battery wears out fast, too, meaning you'll have to buy a replacement within a year or two, most likely. All competitors of Nintendo in the handheld market are doomed to fail and this is no exception. When you try to take on Nintendo's stronghold on the handheld gaming market, you inevitably fail. This isn't as bad on the newer-style units, but it's still an issue. -THE BAD:.
So it's not surprising Sony wanted to try their hand at the portabl gaming market which Nintendo has had a stronghold on since they released the original Game Boy. You get DVD picture quality, but the UMDs are SEVERELY OVERPRICED. You play the same price for them you'd pay for an actual DVD, and the UMD'S NEVER HAVE ANY BONUS MATERIAL FEATURED ON THE DVDS. -HORRIBLE CONTROL DESIGN. These are REQUIRED.
In 2005 the Playstation Portable hit American shores. Graphic-wise, this puts any other handheld on the market to shame. -REQUIRED SOFTWARE UPDATES. It's more than just a game unit, it's also a decent piece of multimedia hardware.
The Playstation Portable is no exception. Playstation Portable. Your battery on this thing will die faster than you'd think. This is just plain poor planning on Sony's part. REVIEW:. Compared to the extremely long battery life on Nintendo's portable systems, this stands as one of Sony's system's greatest weaknesses.
The wide, backlit screen looks great, and the graphics are definitely on par with those of some consular games. Here's the pros and cons of Sony's ill-fated portable system. In Fall of 2007 bundles of the new version of the console were released, including a game. Because of the poorly-designed d-pad and analog stick, fighting games just plain DO NOT WORK on this system. Don't bother buying a PSP, get a Nintendo DS instead. -SONY CLEARLY PUT MORE THOUGHT INTO THE MULTIMEDIA ASPECT THAN THE GAMING ASPECT.
Not only does Nintendo's system have a far bigger library that also includes all Game Boy Advance titles, but that system actually has a large number of good games. -SEVERE LACK OF QUALITY GAMES. Just holding the system is uncomfortable. Whenever you buy a new game for your PSP, more likely than not, you will be prompted to update the system.
