That's why I want the go instead of the bigger ones LAWL!
Get a PSP it is an awesome system, with a lot of great games. Im not sure about the GO since it is pretty expensive, also the digital copies of the games are way overpriced (compared to what you can get in the shops). So i would go for the 3000 model
I think most of you over looked in the original post he said he could get a pspgo for 150
If you need game recommendations I can suggest over 50 PSP titles
| thetonestarr said: Heavens no. If you like the storage capabilities, get a classic PSP and buy a 16GB memory stick for it. You'll get ALL of the Go's functionality AND UMB compatibility + save money. |
This man speaks the truth, if you want a PSP. Grab a 3000 and 16GB memory stick. Don't screw yourself over by buying the more expensive model with less functionality.

PSP haters? Most of the people in the thread are telling him to buy a PSP! They are just telling him not to buy a Go, but to buy a 3000 instead. It's still a PSP.
@OP: Have you tried using the Go or at least testing out an in-store model? If not then I would say definitely go and try it first before you buy it.
Personally, I found the Go to be too small and very cramped for my hands (I have small hands as well). The analog "stick" was pretty awful as well, I thought. I ended up going with a 3000 myself instead or a Go. If you just add a memory stick to a psp 1/2/3000 then you can buy stuff from the PSN store (PS1 games/PSP games, etc.), so it has pretty much the same functionality as Go without being limited to digital dl's only.

I have actually fiddled with the go a little at Best Buy, and it seemed okay I do have relatively large hands though, so it may be an issue. The main issue is the protability and size though. I can handle my DS because I have a nice case that holds the really small cartridges, so it's about the size of a paperback book all said and done. The PSP is so big and UMD's are also big and unwieldy. I want a pocket-sized device with no physical media to worry about, I've become a fan of this due to the iPhone. I appreciate that everyone is looking out for me and wants me to get the best deal, but my concerns are different than what I think a lot of people are thinking.
One thing many people are forgetting about digital download: I have a PSP 3000. My little girl has a pink PSP 3000 (and she plays it much more than she plays the DS. Off topic but true.) My co-worker has a used PSP 1000.
Now, I downloaded Little Big Planet for the PSP. We all have a copy of it for the price of one. I downloaded Crazy Taxi. We all have Crazy Taxi, now. I downloaded the Crash Bandicoot trilogy. We all have Crash Bandicoot. We all have Spyro. We all have Rayman.
If you have multiple PSP's (or have a friend with a PSP), there may be more advantages to digital download than you realize. Of course, none of us have a PSP Go. The thing is, ever since I downloaded that first game, I've been hooked. At least all of the games that I have on UMD ARE available for download (MGS PO, Jeanne D'Arc) but having them all in one place on one (or three) fingernail sized Memory Stick Pro Duo is pretty awesome.
The GO is awesome. If you can get one for $150, do it. Don't look back. I was a hater. Now, I get it. If you combine the PSP's other features with a PS3 AND a PC (music, movies, remote play, pictures, comic books, online play), you have an unbelievable amount of power in your hands.
