For all my friends have told me its far better than the DS and i should sell my DS and use some money and that to buy a PSP .After seeing one, i must agree. what would you say? Should i trade in my DS+cash for a PSP?

Without a doubt! The PSP is just amazing! Me and my brother both have one and we play multiplayer between them besides the games available on the PSP are of much higher quality than the DS altogether.

You would be making a good investment!

Is it worth getting if u already have a playstation ? it seems to be u are just going to buy games and movies for the psp that u might have already or are a lot cheaper if u just buy the reg dvd or reg ps2 game - the only time i would see a good time to use it would be a trip somewhere either riding by car or riding by plane...

I'd say go for it.

The PSP is amazing. A lot of my friends have one and I was astounded at the quality of graphics.

damn....I guess I have just totally grown out of all console games.. ..they just arent fun anymore.

I personally wouldnt buy the PSP.....but thats more me, then the PSP itself. ...though, I did with it used SD cards rather then Sony's memory sticks.

i just heard that u can use the PSP as a controller for the PS3 ? has anyone else heard this ?

If PSP has any bluetooth connection, then im pretty sure you can use it with PS3.

I'd get PSP just because you can load DVDs onto it, from your computer.

Never really looked at the PSP as an option, either - but by the sounds of it, it could make for a good Christmas present for my eldest. Maybe.

The PSP is indeed great, but is it really necessary? Are you going to be playing video games while driving around? Yes, it plays music and movies, but the screen is so small; it's not worth it. As for the music, buy something that's specially made to hold and play music.
