The PSP is far From a Failure

[Hawky05]

lol.. well now you do..

now we have that settled back to the topic.

The PSP owns all

[crackkills]

I think that homebrew rules, althought sony didn't come out with good games originally they are getting much better and I like the movies. ISOS are bad MMMKAY

I like playing games from the memory stick. I find it to run a lot faster then from the UMD. What i don't understand is why Sony doesn't make the games in a MS format instead of the UMD. The reason i play from iso's (that i own) is because the PSP is bulky enough, i don't want to lug around more UMD's and fill my pocket. The DS games are small, why can't sony do it too? if the reason is because it would lower the graphics or whatever, i'm willing to sacrifice that. Games on the DS lite look and play great. Take the hint Sony.

i can happily admit i use iso's, sony make 1 good game out of 10, even that isnt worth playing. i think i get roughly 4-5 hrs with each game then i get completely bored with it. im happy i dont buy these un-imaginitve games. also i am about to downgrade 4-5 ppls psp's so they can use iso's 2.

i would of sold my psp a long time ago if it wasnt for homebrew (i was stuck on 2.6) and iso's (which i have used since the downgrader 1st came available.

just my 2cents

So when does Wraggster talk about the black version being made for african-americans? Hey! He can even use the N-word, coz you know that's so funny.

nice point 4 i am black *coughs being sarcastic* (watch it).... yes... from the blood thruout... not faking it....

well back on topic
if you ask me, psp has a good chance in the handheld industry. Even though i am a nintendo fanboy( i hate sony n microsoft gaming products... lol yet i have a psp... it says something) i still picked up a psp. Im the type of guy who likes a good game to play and to work hard at during my spare time . since sony ahsnt really released any that i want its merely being used for homebrew stuff, gba and snes games( and yes, the gba adn snes games i use on it i do own- megaman battle network 4 red sun adn pokemon fire red... other snes titles... yea) Even though gba is well known to the world, psp packs a bigger punch if u ask me. yes you can go adn buy the "few" gba/ds video cartrages" (only pokemon and beyblade episodes tht ive seen), purchase the 128 mb mp3 playback cartrige and use it on ur gba/ds or u can pick up a psp with a 512 mem stick and use all those functions and more . this is the main reason why i bought this thing. also, psp requires more of a tech savvy mind to really use it to its full potential( thats y we have devs) while gba/ds doesnt need much logic to be operated. this is why psp is more or less down in the markets under ds becayse maybe ppl like the basic "play now" things and not the do "everything like @ home... but slower" theme . Psp could be better if you ask me( like making a startup setting for the people who want to use it quickly like custom fw instead of scroling to play games and waiting forever to play it) but so far... i find it good.

sony should improve on umd data speed.... soooooooooooo slow. i have the iso of each of MY games that i own because I have a habit of making backups on my computer ( lol many of these umd's r broke too... gotta get out the krazy glue)

its not like they cant afford the 2 gig mem stick n sell us games on that... they wouldnt even lose much money... i think a umd is more expensive to make( im most likely wrong... correct me if i am )

The iso-collector guys is in da house Oh wish I believe those guy really ripped their own UMD.. But.. No, I don't.. Sorry.

Admittely there's only few intresting games for PSP but I can't say all DS games appealing to me either..

But let's say some 'intresting' games such as finder love.. Hell, just a couple of week of its release, I can find a site selling its Iso.. How can you expect game company came up with great games while theirs are quickly ripped ? Piracy kills creativity. Given time and condition (=someone did not come up with ISO loader) there will be great games.

Btw, I agree.. The UMD speed is sucks.. And they should've not use the wide-screen.. It makes PSP bulkier..

New colours of the PSP like the Pink version being released will appeal to the female & Gay population

LOL

I agree with you but I don't think that the main reason Sony is losing business is because of piracy, although it is an issue. I think the main reason is because of the games they have out.
