can any of you explain why are you getting a psp go? you are willing to pay more just to get a feeling of satisfaction because you have a device no one else have? the psp go is not a good deal, maybe when is around US$120 it will be worth getting since that is a fair price for it.

"can any of you explain why are you getting a psp go?"
Because I want one?

Well, its significantly more portable, more convenient, and will solve once and for all what IMO is the PSP's greatest weakness, load times. If you take a PSP-3000 and add a 16GB memory stick, the price is not much lower than the PSP-Go. I just don't get why people see $249 as a huge ripoff, when an 16GB iPod touch costs $299 and people have no problem with it? I know a PSP-Go won't have the universal appeal of the ipod touch (no one markets better than Apple), and I'm not saying their sales will be anyway comparable, but from a price value proposition, as a gamer/media whore the PSP-Go ravages the Ipod touchs' ringhole for value.

1) the 3000 will also have access to digital content and is US$80 less

2) you can get an iphone for US$200

3) an ipod touch is like a mini-pc because you can get a lot of apps for it and it does a lot of thing. If you dont have home brew there is not much to do on a PSP but play PSP games, it doesnt even have a calculator.

4) UMD drive is more expensive than a 16GB flash and sony is charging more for the GO

5) the 3000 can do everything the GO can but slide

6) you are paying US$80 beacuse it slides!

7) the screen is smaller on the GO

8) you can get a wii for that money

9) you can get a 360 and a game with that money

10) you can get a psp 3000 and 2 games with that money

11) you might be able to get a PS3 for US$50 more when the GO come out

12) With both PSP using digital content if there is a diference in loading time it will be too small to notice

 

 

TO THOSE SAYING THAT THEY WANT A PSP GO BECAUSE THEY DONT LIKE TO CARRY UMD, YOU CAN DOWNLOAD GAMES TO THE PSP 3000

ahh, people from rich developed coutries, you really dont know what to do with your money

@radha
Yes I do waste it on a PSPGo :)

first the screen size remember with the gb micro, smaller screen does not mean smaller resolution, second the price remember with the first psp came out at $250 it dropped in like 3 weeks itll prbly do the same, and also a 16gb produo costs like $100+ and loading tings from the flash increases battery life while increasing load times, if they have a good battery life they prbly will clock the processor up a lil also, and increase the ram like the psp 2000 compared to the 1000

@legend92 : I'll 'waste' money on PSP Go too, because I think it's wisely wasted. ;)

I really need portability too, and PSP Go is exactly what I wanted : a lighter, sexier, more portable, UMDless, faster loading PSP with a lot of drive space I can take in my pocket everywhere I want.
