The latest Playstation Portable revision, the PSP-3000, has everything the older PSPs had but now includes a built-in microphone, which lets you take advantage of voice features in some games as well as the PSP's built-in Skype functionality without having to use a headset. This PSP-3000 comes in a sleek black color scheme and also includes an improved anti-reflective screen that offers higher contrast and clearer visibility in well-lit places and can even be used outdoors. A Full Entertainment System in Your Hands
The PSP was designed to handle all varieties of applications and entertainment -- music, video, communication, wireless networking, and, of course, gaming. Users will enjoy top-notch 3D games with high-quality, full-motion video, and high-fidelity audio. The 4.3-inch wide screen display is bright and beautiful, and works well under many different lighting conditions. If you prefer, you can also connect your PSP to your TV. The PSP utilizes the Universal Media Disc (UMD) for a storage medium, each of which holds 1.8 GB of data. Hundred of Games to Choose From
The PSP gaming library is hundreds of titles strong and covers a wide variety of genres. Whether you are seeking the hard hits of football or the strategy of a puzzle game, there's sure to be many games for you. The PSP is capable of graphics quality that is comparable to the PlayStation 2, but in a pocket-sized package that you can take wherever you go. Watch Movies and Videos On The Go
When you just want to sit back and enjoy a movie on a long plane trip, the PSP has you covered. The PSP offers two options to do this: you can either purchase full-length movies and TV shows on UMD, or you can download videos onto your computer and transfer them on a Memory Stick Duo for playing on your PSP. Included in the package is the movie National Treasure 2 on UMD. You can also watch recorded television content downloaded to a Memory Stick Duo with the TiVo-To-Go service. (Please note that this requires $24.95 fee, you must have a TiVo Series2 connected to your home network.) Listen to Your Music Collection Anywhere
With the ability to play MP3, WAV, WMA, ATRAC3+, and MP4 files, you can easily use your PSP as an audio player. Simply place your music on a Memory Stick Duo, and you can navigate your collection using the PSP's XMB (XrossMediaBar) to select your song to play. Built-in WiFi allows for Internet Browsing and Online Gaming
With built-in WiFi, you can access the Internet from any accessible hotspot. Once connected, you can surf the Web and download exclusive demos and content for your PSP from the PlayStation Store. The WiFi also allows you to battle other gamers, both over the Internet and in your local vicinity. What's in the Box:
Black PSP-3000 system, AC power cord, AC adapter, battery pack, documentation.

 More than a stress buster. March 8, 2010
Sunil "Jack" (Chicago, IL USA)
I bought this from Amazon a few weeks ago. When ever I want to buy electronic goods, I run a complete research of the product by visiting websites and reading their reviews. Just to mention one such website: [...]. As far as I am concerned, the SONY PSP 3000 is an awesome handheld gaming console which you should definetly buy it if you are a serious gamer. Sure there are many other consoles like the DS LITE. But, I think SONY PSP is the best there is. The PSP boasts of a LARGE SCREEN, WI-FI capabilities, SKYPE, great graphics, sound, video playback. The product is very well designed especially for gaming purposes. This is as close you can get to a PS3 or a PS2. The system lasted long enough on a fully charged battery. The bottom line: "Best handheld gaming console".
PROS:
-Large display(4.3"), great graphics, weighs lighter than its previous versions.
-Web browsing.
-Has the Largest games collection for a handheld.
-Play your PSP games on TV.
-Can be used as a controller for PS3.
-Good audio and video playback.
-Customization (themes, wallpapers).
-SKYPE.
CONS:
-The outer skin of the PSP is a fingerprint magnet. Though they disappear when wiped with a soft cloth.
-Mandatory addons such as memory card, headphones, UMD game discs, USB cable or a card reader for file transferring do not come with the PSP pack and HAVE to be bought. Thus making it much more costlier.
 The Best! March 7, 2010
SUPERFORMIAN The Youtuber (Neverland Ranch)
We all love the PSP don't we? One of the best portable sytems. Even connect it to your PS3! I'm guessing this Core Pack only comes with the system itself, right? I wish I could get it considering that my PSP 1000 has an unknown virus! Has anyone ever heard of the RSS Sample Channel Virus? If you download the Sample Channel (from the RSS Channel) it comes with a fun little virus! The best part about it is that it won't let you use the RSS Channel, the Internet Radio, internet browser, connect to the internet, or connect to your PS3! Isn't that great?! I really wish I could order it but my mother would get mad at me if I did. Moral of the story, WHEN FIRST USING THE RSS CHANNEL AND IT ASKS YOU IF YOU WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE SAMPLE CHANNEL, DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR ELSE YOU BE WELCOMED INTO MY WORLD. Worst part is, it's irreversible (I think). It must be considering the fact that I've looked everywhere on Google and YouTube for it and haven't found it. No one knows about it! I know this review is mostly unhelpful but it doesn't matter to me how many times you say it's unhelpful because that's true. Great system, buy it if you can, don't download that channel, and have fun.
Gotta love it, but not very comfortable. March 5, 2010
J. Perez
Worth the money because the graphics and sounds are top notch. The great sound can only be enjoyed with quality headphones, not the built-in speakers. The only complaint I have is that it's not very comfortable, but this thing is so cool that I have to give it the 5-star, but it's more like a 4.5-star product. God of War and Assassins Creed are highly recommended.
Like this system ALOT February 12, 2010
BossMan (Atlanta, Ga)
Really fun to have one. It can be used as a media player also which is GREAT for me because I travel alot and I get bored sometimes. Oh, and the Wifi Browser is right on time. You should get one.
A gamer's portable February 11, 2010
Frank (Inland Empire, CA)
First of all expect to spend much more than $169 before you can enjoy the PSP. Once you add a memory card, a couple of games, a case and a skin or screen protector, you would've spent over $200.00 before you even take the system home. However, the PSP experience is still incredible almost 5 years after it came out. Far more powerful and technologically superior to the DS and capable of providing deep, detailed gameplay compared to the iPhone's short attention span offerings, the PSP is a true gamer's console with the following great features:
-Great library of games covering RPGs, action, sports, etc etc. They retail for about $30 to $40 but eBay always has tons of used or NOS games for less than $20 every day.
-Capable of playing Nintendo, Super Nintendo, N64, PS1, Sega Master, Sega Genesis and other games from older systems via freely available emulators
-Capable of wirelessly controlling a PS3 and using media on the bigger machine.
-Capable of browsing the internet and download games, demos, themes and other media via WiFi. The demos help in game buying decisions while the themes allow the user to personalize their PSP
All in all the PSP may be old but nothing in the market can touch its gaming horsepower. If you like your on the go games to be just as detailed and complex as your home console games then you owe yourself a PSP.
