PSP Daxter Pack 2000 I have purchased this product from Circuit City in the Past, and I just absolutely enjoyed this product. The graphics for this product is relatively good, not like the PS3 but what else is expected. I really enjoyed that if I wanted to listen to music, I would be able to view my pictures that I have on my memory stick. I really enjoy the game that came with it, but being how I am, I threw away the family guy movie. I have sent it back after a little over a year, because I purchased a protection plan for it, and I plan on purchasing another one, except from amazon. I would recommend this hand held gaming system to anyone thats into hand held gaming.
They Grow Up So Fast... I got this just months before the newer, upgraded PSP (the 3000) was released. Just the same, I've very much enjoyed the console. This particular bundle comes with the game "Daxter" (a Jak and Daxter title set between Jak I and II), and a UMD sampler of Family Guy episodes. It also has a small memory stick, just to get you started.
It's interesting how the console wars have played out: Nintendo's DS is, like the Wii, an excellent gaming device, but little else. The PSP follows closely in the PS3's footsteps by trying to be less of a gaming console and more of a media player. It's much bulkier than a Zune or an iPod, but if you're someone who plans on playing games, you can't ask for better. The PSP's screen is bright and colorful. Its "cartridges" are actually tiny optical discs called "UMDs" (for "Universal Mini-Disc"), but Sony planned ahead and assembled them in plastic cartridge cases to cut down on dust and scratches. The unit runs for a decent amount of time on the batteries, varying depending on how bright you set the screen and whether you're playing a disc or reading directly off a Memory Stick.
And that's where the potential grows: by using Memory Stick technology to enable you to store files, you're now capable of putting together a collection of just about any media you wish: I have a small stick of photos and a large stick for videos that also holds my savegames.
I've been very impressed by the quality of most of the games I've played on the PSP, and I was pleasantly surprised at how many games there are out there to choose from--I really had no idea. All the same, there are cons: UMD movies never really took off, so they're on their way out as a format. While there is wireless networking, it's really not good for Internet use: online multiplayer gaming works fine, but the browser is not so good, and trying to type even a password to log into your e-mail can get downright infuriating. You can subscribe to RSS feeds and read content using the PSP, but it's going to take you some time and tinkering to get it going.
There are some interesting extras to the PSP, however. Not only has Sony been trying to improve the quality and features with product updates, but the integration with the PS3 is pretty tight: I can sit at home and access media files through the PS3. I can read shared media on any multimedia server in my home network (for instance, my Vista machine has made it very easy to listen to my music collction). I can use a media reader to transfer files of any kind back and forth, I've used both the PS3 and a PC to buy games online and download them to the unit, and as if that isn't enough: if I load a PlayStation (PS One) game into the PS3, I can play it from anywhere--even away from home--by "connecting" to my PS3 over the Internet. I'm not sure why only PS 1 titles work, but it's still an interesting extra feature: I actually have some pretty good PS 1 titles still around.
If you're looking for portable fun, and you have a PS3, the PSP is really the logical choice for you. If you have no interest in media, or you're thinking of something for smaller children, you might want to go with the Nintendo DS: it's a little less fragile, and there are more games for all ages. As for this grown-up gamer and his 9-year-old daughter, we've had a hit on our hands.
Some add-ons you should consider: a larger Memory Stick, a plastic carrying case (the official Sony case is bulky, but very good), and if you want to have some fun on the big screen, you can buy an audio-video cable to connect to your television (again, Sony's brand-name has turned out better than the aftermarket cable I tried).
PSP the best portable console I have ever had I'm gamer and really like playing. If you are looking for a portable gaming station. That's the best option for you.
-It renders 32 bits like the PSX. (in other words a PSX portable xD) -It supports WEP and WPA for connecting to internet or playing on line. -The games are very cool and very nice graphics. -Watching TV over a Free Location Player. -Watching movies. -Browse the internet. -Use it as a control for the PS3 -Streaming video and music from a PS3 to your PSP. You can access your PS3 files from your PSP anywhere(If you have internet access) -On line radio. -So on
Here's the great part. You can mod this PSP. That will allow you:
-Playing SNES,NES,SEGA,Atari,PSX,etc. -Running homebrew (you can read pdf, txt, homebrew games, etc) -playing ISOs and CSOs (Please, if you like a game, buy it original, don't kill what we love... gaming) -Emulates TI 89,92 (that really helps for Engineering careers) -Control your computer through VNC anywhere (If you have internet access)
I got a Nintendo DS too but the PSP renders better graphics and have great titles like Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core, God of War, Star Ocean etc.
The NDS is great if you like simple gaming and a different way of playing but the graphics are simple. However it has great titles like FF, Mario Kart, Zelda, Chrono Trigger,Contra etc. So, It's up to you.
Fun on the go! Daxter is fun and challenging. Who doesn't love Family Guy? PSP rocks! I bought this originally for my son (6yrs old) but it is really more for teens and adults so I got hime the Nintendo DS instead and kept this one for me. I can't put it down. We have had it for a year and have put insane hours into it. It seems like the screen display quality is diminishing slightly though.
nice customer service we order psp Dexter entertainment pack, the memory card was missing. the customer service was very good, return was no hassle will do business again.
