I have been drooling over this thing for 2 years. My friend and I walked into a Gamecrazy store today and I just figured that I would put down what I had in my wallet($60). My mom volunteered to buy it for me... I have no idea why though. Maybe she wants to spoil me before I go off to college. So my question is... does anyone else plan on getting the psp?

MP4 means you can convert any video files into MP4, send it to your memory stick pro duo(so far, the biggest is 2 gb) and play it. I have already converted The Last Samurai, Family Guy Season 1, and The Incredibles. I plan on bringing it to school and showing it off on the 24th. You can also play UMDs which are the kinda like minidisks but can hold 1.8 gb. The PSP comes with the Spiderman2 movie UMD.

Whoa! Alt F4? That you?

You bet!

Where have you been?

I got a PSP. It takes up most of my free time now.

For serious?

Indeed.

Is the PSP really that awesome? I know it sounds cool but it's like $250 plus $40-50 a game... that's a lot of money.

It is a lot of money, but it is definitely worth it.

Should I hold up a liquour store to buy one?

It'd be worth it, <for legal reasons> but you shouldn't do that </for legal reasons>.

Wow. You're fantastic Alt F4!

Why thank you. And in closing I would just like to say that if you're not searching your couch cushions looking to fund your PSP then you just haven't played one... and also, http://www.c-independent.com/psp.wmv (3.3MB)

Haha, sounds like you had to quit in order to pick up the phone on the SECOND ring. I bought Ape Escape for my PSP. My friends all made fun of me, but I think that it is a very entertaining game. Don't judge a book by its cover.

PS- you can access internet explorer if you have the game Wipeout: Pure.

Ape Escape eh? I rented that game for PS way back in the day but it wasn't compatible with my MAD CATZ dual shock controller. Go figure... never got to play it. Always wanted to. I'm looking for a few new games to pick up and I've considered Ape Escape, Spiderman 2 and Metal Gear Ac!d. I'm just waiting for the next PSM to see the reviews.
