    How much USD does it cost? I think it will take at least half a year until it ships in Europe...it sounds pretty cool though, I like it that you can connect it to your PC via USB and store movies on it.

    quite a few people at the office got one already. it looks very cool and the screen is great. I think if you have the cash, getting it would be a great way to watch movies on the go. I know Sony is releasing some of Sony Pictures movies direct to PSP, but other movies would be watchable in a variety of ways (read PSM's PSP guide this month for details).

    I don't think many of the launch games have caught my interest. I'd like to play SSX3 or MX vs ATV on it. The ATV game launching with PSP is made by Climax and not Rainbow so I'll hold out for a better game. I might have a PSP game to launch sometime later this year, so if that happens I'll get one but I probably won't spend the cash now....

    Please, please, please, please Capcom: release a wi-fi Resident Evil for the PSP. It can even just be a port of Outbreak File 1/2 if you like, just make it happen!

    Yes I've got it, used it for about 7 years or something now, there's something about it whereby you can adapt quicker than say photoshop, obviously though the standards are much higher...

    ...oh you meant a different PSP..?

    My friend said the second shipment is $50 less and doesnt include spiderman 2, so ill go for that. I think its the sexiest gaming console ever. The WiFi multiplayer sounds awesome, the graphics are sweet, and the fact that you can look at porn on it makes it the best handheld imho.

    the square button gets stuck because it's near the lcd screen and they made it so you need to hit the right edge of it, rather than its centre ¬¬

    lotsa people getting dead pixels

    From everything I hear, the square button issue has been fixed for the American release.

    my friend has one dead pixel. whats a good way to prevent that?

    i played it for the first time today, some kid let me borrow it and play twisted metal. graphically, that game doesnt compare to the other PSP games, but it has worldwide internets play so i guess that makes it goo.

    gran turismo 4 mobile - i cant wait. thats when i buy this thing. This is from the gamespot site. its not the PS2 version, its the PSP version (apparently).

    maybe it's me... but I don't much care for the PSP, and not so far much for the DS...

    I do however LOVE MY GAMEBOY ADVANCE TO DEATH. I think it's because it satisfies something that the others cannot. Old school 16 bit gaming, 2d awesomeness. I'll give the PSP credit for looking amazing but I can play all these games on any console... just random 3d stuff.

    But on the GBA I can play old school metroid games and zelda games, even top down final fantasy stuff. I think I'm getting old.

    I love you mikezilla

    I dont have a psp ofcourse, did you like my sarcasm

    I do have DS though, I'm not ashamed that I bought it because it has the Nintendo logo on it, as mike does I love old school nintendo- but I also like the new stuff they make..... and n64 is old school to me

    The psp on the other hand... it....just.... why?
