My son has a PSP and while I was in hospital yesterday I borrowed it off him to keep me entertained during the boring hours of nothing to do. I found I just didn't like the way it sat in my hands and I don't particularly like the arrangement of the buttons. I tried playing Ratchet and Clank, and Crash Tag Team Racing, but with neither game was it a comfortable experience. Seems like the PSP is good for a lot of things (movies, music, interweb browsing, and even games that look good) but for me the gaming experience is diminished too much by the ergonomics of the machine. A pity really.
I have a feeling I'd find the DS similarly vexing, though the touchscreen pen might make some things easier. Give me a classic controller any day I guess.
Anyone else find the PSP ergonomically annoying?
