Posted June 2, 2009 I just had a thought. Since the games will be downloaded, makers won't want to make the size of games too big to save download times. That could be a pretty big hinderance. It already happened with the downloadable expansion for Phantasy Star Universe on the 360. They took out most of the cut scenes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From experience Sony make their files huge. :p PSP games wont top 1.5GB though. You can download on PC or PS3 too. Use PSP Media Manager and click PSN store icon above to check if you dont have a psp. Most games are quite small actually about 200-300mb. http://www.playstation.com/mediamanager/en/ GT5P on PS3 is over 10gb. HD movies are over 5GB. Much bigger than any other service.

Posted June 2, 2009 I was thinking we already said it wasn't possible to piggy back 3G via phone wonder if they will release a PSN store accessible by mobiles and then you can bluetooth games to the PSP...bit convaluted but is another way of accessing the PSN Store.

They might let you do PSN like some Bravia TV. But i doubt this will happen at the conference or soon. Mobile phones just arent good at large files like that.

Posted June 3, 2009 Wow, they are actually gonna be pretty damn expensive too. $250 is not really a good enough reason to move over... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2009 I am going to trade in my PSP Lite to get this. I'm doing the same thing, but I rang up my local shop and they only offered me £45.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2009 Wow, they are actually gonna be pretty damn expensive too. $250 is not really a good enough reason to move over... But then if you already have a PSP there is absolutely no need to. The good thing about this is if you want a download only slightly more portable machine then you can buy one, but existing owners don't miss out in the slightest. Good range of games coming out alongside this. Machine and a few games budgeted for for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2009 I'm doing the same thing, but I rang up my local shop and they only offered me £45.. You could sell it much more yourself. Same goes for games. I never trade nowadays unless there is a special case where you get a generous offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I've done, wish me luck. I wonder what the price in Pounds will be, Sony could be very cheeky and have 250 $£Euros across the board.. Whatever it is I'm guaranteed a nice discount if it's close to £200. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) GAME have the psp go at a preorder price of £179 where other sites like PLAY.com have £249.£179 is very cheap compared to the other price will it stay like that on GAME thanks. http://www.game.co.uk/PSP/Hardware/Console/~r342217/Sony-PSP-Go-Black-Console/ Edited June 3, 2009 by shadow mario link did not work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2009 It'll be £180 just like the original PSP. They wouldn't sell any at a higher price - you can get a decent 360 for that, which is much better value. Although you are comitting to buying a lot of stuff for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 3, 2009 No but I said for a decent 360. For £180 you get more things that make the 360 worth having i.e. online and HDD. DS is £150, whereas the 360 tends to be pushing £200 to be worth buying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DS is £150, whereas the 360 tends to be pushing £200 to be worth buying. Online is an ongoing expense on 360. Also for HDD its best to get a seperate 120gb drive than the crappy 20GB. PSP at least wont require ongoing payments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 4, 2009 I actually lolled at GT mobile. They said that game was going to come out some 5 years ago or so. but better late than never. The psp go did make me take a second look at the psp. But the fact that I don't think Dsi is worth £150 you'd be hard pressed to make me consider a psp at £200+ a worthwhile investment. And with all this talk of the pound's falling value against the yen, I doubt I would consider the price very attractive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheaper than I'd budgeted for so now I can add another game in somewhere. Edit: Game have now put it up to £230. Edited June 4, 2009 by will' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 4, 2009 There's no way I'm paying £230 for a handheld. Might just get the 2000 model for £99. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 4, 2009 Perhaps mandatory bundling. And with all this talk of the pound's falling value against the yen, I doubt I would consider the price very attractive. Thats why Nintendo and Sony were looking to up the prices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 4, 2009 Isn't the pound strengthening again recently? (Although I have no idea how any of this works.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 4, 2009 Perhaps mandatory bundling. With what? Isn't the pound strengthening again recently? (Although I have no idea how any of this works.) It certainly is, seems to have been picking up nicely recently. Obviously it depends which direction is beneficial to you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 What's the biggest memory card that the PSP 3000 works with? and cheapest place to get such things...just I'm thinking may get a big one for downloading games...I'm actually running out of shelf space so perhaps now will just get them off PSN...
