Product Description
The PSP Slim & Lite is a natural design evolution for the PSP system. It also includes a video output, which means that your PSP can now be connected to a TV, enabling you to play, share and watch your games, videos and photos on a TV. The speaker location has also been improved providing an even better sound experience than before.

The PSP is the first truly integrated handheld entertainment system designed to handle multiple applications ? music, video, communication, and wireless networking, with games as its primary driver. PSP brings an unparalleled gaming experience to a handheld platform, allowing users to enjoy 3D games, with high-quality, full-motion video, and high-fidelity stereo audio. With graphics rendering capability comparable to that of PlayStation2, PSP features a 4.3-inch wide screen, high-resolution TFT display. PSP also adopts a newly developed, proprietary compact but high-capacity (1.8GB) optical disc, Universal Media Disc (UMD), as its storage medium.

4 out of 5 stars PSP Review   August 25, 2008
The product was intended for my 7-year old's birthday and she loves it.
It has good graphics and is easy for her to work with. She should get a few good years out of it!



3 out of 5 stars I almost gave it four stars . .   August 25, 2008
  1 out of 2 found this review helpful

But as I thought about it more, I can only give it three. I've played and owned all the sytems: XBOX and XBOX 360, PS3, the GameCube and Wii, the DS and now this is our second PSP (I wanted one of my own--I originally bought the Star Wars bundle for my kid).

The good:
This is a high quality product, much like the PS3. I'm an XBOX fanboy probably but the quality of the Sony gaming devices cannot be denied. It's nice to hold in your hand. It's well put together. It's attractive.

The screen is absolutely fantastic. I bought a DS for myself and gave it to the kids because it just felt too "old tech." I don't care about touch screens. The PSP screen is the best I've seen in handheld gaming.

The bad:

The PSP loses its first (of five) stars for AWFUL CONTROLS. I appreciate their inclusion of the thumbstick--but to exclude the other? And the location of the thumbstick? I STILL haven't figured out how to hold it comfortably (in my fingertips? Pressed against my palms?). Maybe one of the grips would help.

The second star loses because of the game selection. I don't want scaled down versions of games I've already played on the XBOX 360. I bought this on a whim for Space Invaders Extreme, a fantastic game. Was recommended Killzone, and find it intolerable. Thankfully, another recommendation, Syphon Filter Dark Mirror turned out to be a pleasant revelation--I'm actually thoroughly enjoying that and wish others were more like it. I don't like all the button mashing action games (read: God of War.


So, overall, it's a VERY nice device, with a less than stellar control scheme (comfort wise), and a less than stellar catalog of games (for my tastes).

I don't regret buying it at all--just wish there were more games for it.




5 out of 5 stars Get a Brand New 80 gb ps3 for a fraction of the cost!!!   August 23, 2008

Get a free PS3 and GAMES!!! Have a look at this video first:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFKYVE__Mug

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free iPod or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 4 week free trial and it is free!). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 5-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your free PS3 or your selected item for free, I chose the PS3. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY or any message boards, blogs, face book, my space or any place you hang out at. ! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want.


Step 1: Click this link: http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=5322947

Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad).

Step 4: Receive your PS3 system or Other Electronics for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is Free!!!)


For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the company that is behind everything.
