That said, I purchased one anyway, and I couldn't be happier with it. First, I'll admit to having owned a PSP-2000 a few years ago. I eventually rid myself of it, mainly because I was doing the vast majority of my gaming at home, and there weren't many games out for the system that really held my interest. With more RPGs out for it now such as Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions and Dissidia, I was all prepared to bite the bullet a 3000, but the notion of carrying around a number of UMDs around with me stopped me. I commute every day and so whatever I bring with me for entertainment needs to be as compact and integrated as possible. There's just no good way to transport UMDs short of buying a carrying case, and throwing one of those into my bag with my laptop, phone, notebooks, MP3 player and associated peripherals was definitely a step beyond my comfort level. Enter the PSPGo. Integrated 16 GB flash memory, negating the need for both UMDs and memory cards? Check. Smaller size, allowing one to pocket the device without exposing half of it to the elements? Yeah, buddy. Incredibly crisp screen resolution? Also present. Considering I'd sold my PSP games along with my unit, yes, I needed to build a library again. That was solved with a simple $50 Playstation Network Card, which gave me enough to buy a whopping seven PSOne games from my earlier years. I was in gaming heaven. I really can't stress how amazing it is to be able to play those games again, and whenever I want, no less. The unit itself really is great. I have fairly large hands and fingers, and I have had no trouble holding and operating the device comfortably and accurately. The sliding mechanism is much like what you'd find in many cell phones nowadays, and it feels sturdy and will likely not break easily. I've always been a fan of Sony's XCrossMediaBar, the operating system of sorts for the PSP and PS3, and navigating it is intuitive and simple. To address a few common complaints about it: First, yes, it's true. The PSPGo only supports wireless-b, which is pretty frustrating if you like to keep your personal wi-fi network up to date. I'm not sure if Sony has any plan to rectify this considering the most obvious work around to this is to download whatever you need onto your PC and then transfer it to the PSP, but it's my major complaint about the product. Second, I've had no problem playing a number of different games on the unit, including classic PSOne RPGs. I can read all text without straining my eyes. I'll state here that I don't wear corrective lenses of any kind, so this experience may be different if you do; my advice is to try it out as much as you can before you purchase it. Simple. Third, some claims regarding the battery life seem to be exaggerated. I charged mine to full capacity right out of the box (which, I expect, some do not do with most new electronic devices despite it being the very first step in any Quick Start Guide) then proceeded to play with it for nearly five hours straight without needed to plug it in. If you turn off redundant, nonessential and unused features (Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, anyone?), the unit will go for a very respectable amount of time. Finally, the biggest complaint of all: Sony doesn't seem too eager to make their entire UMD library available for digital purchase, apparently. Really? Bear in mind that this technology launched just over a month ago, and that all sorts of negotiations need to be made with developers to make their software available in Sony's Playstation Network Store. All of this takes time. Sure, the argument could be made that Sony could've had the wheels in motion much earlier, but given the sheer number of games out for the original PSP system, are you really going to fault them for having only a limited number of titles available after the launch? Remember that Nintendo only had a handful of games up for purchase and download when the Wii was released. Give it time, people. Sony may be trying their hand in the casual gamer market, but they're not stupid. They know where their real consumer base is: dedicated gamers who won't run out and buy their newest incarnation unless they have a lot to offer. This includes the PSP library. That said, considering I was most attracted to the portability of the PSPGo combined with the availability of classic PSOne games and the fact that I did not currently have a PSP or any games, this was a great purchase. I couldn't be happier with it. Review: A review from a first-day original PSP owner - The PSPgo is an interesting device. It would appear to many that this hardware revision seems to have taken one step forward (sleeker design, bluetooth capability, built-in memory) and two steps back (no UMD drive, price, purchases tied to the PSN Store). I'm here to say: I love my PSPgo. First, a little bit of my background: I was an original adopter of the PSP-1000 system. I love the PSP platform and feel as though the hardware itself as well as many of the platform's games are severely unappreciated. I want to provide some commentary for what kind of customers might be looking into purchasing a PSPgo: 1) The Gadget Geek It's obvious, even from the customer images and official product images, that the PSPgo is one slimmed-down, sexy device. If you're into gadgets, the PSPgo will not disappoint: this is a much more portable, sleeker device than the PSP 1000 / 3000 systems. This handheld will fit where the old PSPs won't, that's for sure. The sliding-open of the controls is addicting; it mimics many of the cell phones that have this kind of mechanism. 2) Someone who is looking into purchasing their first PSP system It's a tough call to truly recommend the PSPgo for those who are looking into purchasing this as their first PSP system. Personally, I would. Many probably wouldn't. As of right now, the PSN Store does not have all of the best PSP games available to download. However, they do have a fantastic current selection that includes Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee 2, LocoRoco 2 and more. As of today, they do not have several fantastic games on the PSN Store (Dissidia and Crisis Core, to name a couple). I can only assume, in time, these will be available. The other consideration is buying used games at stores such as Gamestop. As a new PSP owner, you probably want to buy a lot of older games that you have yet to enjoy. These probably come in at fairly cheap used game prices at stores. If you have a PSPgo system, some of these prices are comparable; some are not. If a first-time PSP owner does decide to purchase a PSPgo system, they don't want to worry about purchasing additional memory right out of the game, which is a nice little bonus. 3) Someone who currently owns a PSP 1000 / 3000 If you have the financial means, I think purchasing a PSPgo to compliment your PSP 1000 / 3000 system is a great idea. This is the kind of customer I am. I was able to use desertcart's video game trade-in program to knock the price down for the PSPgo system. I still have my PSP 1000 system around in case I want to play any of the games I have on UMD. And, not surprisingly (or maybe surprisingly for some), I have yet to have a hankering to go back and play any of the UMD games I own since owning a PSPgo. And I have some fantastic games on UMD that are not offered as a digital download currently on the PSN Store! And I think this is where the PSPgo system gets a LOT of hate: the whole discussion about not being able to play any UMD games you may currently own. My thought on that is this: I think before owning a PSPgo, this might be a concern. But when you have one, you don't have a drive to play any of your UMD games. I have plenty to play in terms of PSX / PSP games I've already downloaded and have downloaded since owning the system. I don't know, maybe I'm just a special case or something. Conclusion I absolutely love my PSPgo: it's sexy, it's incredibly portable and I love having a whole smattering of games available right there on my system. The price may be a tad bit high, but if you can swing it, you'll love the PSPgo system. Since owning my PSPgo, I have not wanted to play any of my current UMD games on my old PSP system. There's a lot of currently released titles on the PSN Store to satisfy my needs. ## Features - The ability to download games, movies, TV and other media directly from the PlayStation Network to your PSP Go. - 16GB of built-in flash memory for file storage and removable memory expansion via memory stick. - Bluetooth support for skype headsets and other devices. - Slide out control design to maximize the ultra-crisp 3.8" LCD screen functionality. - No UMD design makes for a quieter, more energy efficient device. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002BSC55M | | Best Sellers Rank | #60,786 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #56 in Sony PSP Consoles | | Brand Name | PlayStation | | Color | Piano Black | | Compatible Flash Memory Type | Memory Stick | | Connectivity Technology | Bluetooth | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (755) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00711719851301 | | Input Device | Gamepad | | Item Weight | 158 g | | Manufacturer | Sony Computer Entertainment | | Manufacturer Part Number | 98513 | | Memory Storage Capacity | 16 GB | | Model Name | PSPgo | | Model Number | 98513 | | Platform | Sony PSP | | Resolution | 720p | | UPC | 711719851301 | | Wireless Communication Technology | Bluetooth | ## Images ![PSPgo - Piano Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vsKJNLVrL.jpg) ![PSPgo - Piano Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81IzVLf+U4L.jpg) ![PSPgo - Piano Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Wqn5Vm-wL.jpg) ![PSPgo - Piano Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815vH5S02gL.jpg) ![PSPgo - Piano Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YL9oObZ4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do you out the. game. on it i was wnting one. but. dont know** A: This version of the PSP is digital only.

The main thing people need to know about the PSP Go is that It is a all-digital system. Meaning that you cannot buy games/movies for It at any physical store. You can only buy games/movies for the PSP Go from the Playstation Network. I'm not sure If you HAVE to have high speed Internet for It..but If you do,and are Interested In this product...it comes with Instructions on how to buy content. The PSP Go is the latest Incarnation of sony's Playstation Portable..otherwise called the PSP. It can play videogames,movies(that you can either buy from the Playstation Network...for the rest of this review..will be called the PSN).You can put your own personal photos onto it from a computer,and you can also put on your personal music onto it. You can also put your own movies that you have on your computer on It If you know how. there are online guides on how to do this and maybe even In the Intsructions that come In the box. The upgrades top the PSP Go are that it has blue-tooth technology. So you can tehter it with your bluetooth phone and go on the Internet with your Go via your phone,you can even synch it up with your blue-tooth deck In your car and listen to your games/music/movies through your car speakers. And If you have a Playstation 3(or just Its controller) you can synch the PSP Go with the PS3 controller and use the PS3 controller as the PSP Go's controller. It also comes with 16GB of memory though 2 GB's are held back for system specs or whatever you wanna call it..so you REALLY only get 14GB...still PLENTY of space. About the PSN: The PSN is where you will be buying games for the PSP Go. The PSN makes available games to purchase for the PSP/PSP Go. Aswell as movies,TV shows,demos,etc. Here Is the part that I dont like: The part that I dont like is the availablity of games on the PSN. Before the PSP Go was released...the PSN(which Is updated every Thursday) would get MAYBE 1-2 PSP games available for purchase(and In my opinion..not all of the updates are good. I buy TONS of games and there would be times where I wouldnt buy anything at all). When the PSP was released on October 1st...the PSN received a MASSIVE update of games...which was GREAT..but not ALL the games In the PSP's catalog was there and nobody knows If they ever will be. From what I've read on videogame message boards...only Sony's games themselves will be available on the PSN that same day..which Is great! But what about games from other companies? From what I hear..it's up to that videogames company to decide if they even want that game available on the PSN. So that means if a videogame comes out that Is NOT from Sony that youo REALLY want to play...you may NEVER play it..atleast on the PSP Go. Though it should be said that most of the "big name" games SHOULD be availalbe..but dont hold me to that. It should be said that If you are worried about the above: Buy a PSP 1000,2000,or 3000 model Instead. These models can play physical UMD's(thats what they call the games that you buy In a store) ASWELL as the games that are on the PSN. The games downloaded from the PSN to a older model PSP will be stored on that systems Memory Stick Pro Duo. I personally have had a 1000 model,sold it for a 2000,sold THAT for a 3000,then sold THAT aswell as most of my games for the PSP GO( I like to have the newest version of everything :p ) and I dont regret it. The selection on the PSN Is a nice size and most of the games that I sold are on there(sadly not all) so I just downloaded them again. The big part of my decision to get a Go was the fact that I could have ALL my games on the system and not have to carry around a whole bunch of UMD's. I never carried more that 2 or 3 anyway because..well..I jsut didnt want to carry all of them In fear I would lose em or something like that and just for the Inconvinience. But with the Go..I have ALL my games on me..which Is great. Almost forgot something about the memory...It comes with 14GB of free space..but you can always buy M2 memory cards to add even MORE memory. I plan to buy a 16GB card soon(only because I've never seen a 32GB m2 card). Thats my review and I hope it helps you In your purchase. Oh! If you decided to get a PSP(any model) PLEASE get a protective case and screen guards. These machines are expensive after all and case and screen guard will help you to protect your entertainment Investment.
