Yeah yeah, I feel a bit alone but I was actually wondering if anybody else use their PSP as their only gaming console. Currently I have 5 titles (games in South Africa ain't that cheap you know)

1.) Mortal Kombat - Unchained (Quite good)

2.) Ridge Racer (Good graphics and game-play but does get quite hard)

3.) Dungeon Siege - Throne of Agony (Far too easy)

4.) Toca Race Driver 3 (was a present, graphics are quite jaggy and the game is quite hard)

5.) Silent Hill Origins (Excellent game, short but still great)

Anyway back to the point, just wanting to know about my above mentioned question.

It's the only one I've played all year. Started with FF Tacticts, went on to Castlevania, just beat Jeanne D'Arc, and now I'm waiting for Crisis Core.

It's quite strange how some people can't see a portable gaming device being someone's only gaming device. I am a ex PS2, NES, Genenis, PSX, PC user but I do find pocket gaming to be very much the same. The size of a screen ain't such a main factor as most people think (look at PSP and DS in Japan) and I always love to see developers transfer ports/sequals/prequals for PSX/PS2 games to the PSP.

Yeah it's my primary gaming device. I used to have a ps2 with a bunch a games, but I gave it away. So the only other thing I have for games would be my computer. But all I really play on my computer is UT2004.

Otherwise I've stuck with the same games for awhile: Lumines II, SF: DM, burnout Legends, wipeout, ace combat, and Tekken. Although I must say I cut down on gaming on my psp, mainly because my vision is blurry after playing for an hour or so.

Well, I sold my 360 a few months back and picked up a 80Gb PS3. I got MotorStorm, Tiger Woods '08, WarHawk and Burnout Paradise + PAIN and Bowling, and now Pixel Junk Monsters. I just recently bought a Black PSP slim, 2gb card, and 5 games. Worms 2, WipEOut Pulse+Pure, FFT: War of the Lions, and Puzzle Quest.

I'll admit right now that i've probably played my PSP more in the last few days, then I have my PS3 since I got it a few months ago. I currently have around 45 units Folding@Home, so thats about 270 hours my PS3 has NOT been gaming.

The PSP is a great piece of gaming equipment, and I'm an avid gamer, PC, PS3, and PSP. Right now, yes, it is my main source of gaming.

PS. My girlfriend loves it aswell, because I can lay in bed with her, while she cuddles and falls asleep, while im doing whatever on my PSP. Perfect Combination =].

I bought a psp last october and it has been my console ever since. I had only played PC games before (it's expensive to buy consoles in Uruguay) but I prefer psp games. I dont have much games (Metal Gear Acid 2, Tekken DR, Daxter, Jeanne d'Arc and Tomb Raider Anniversary) but I having a terrific time playing them. Also waitting for GOW and FFCC, thinking about Patapon...

It's not my primary gaming device. Nothing really is though. I guess it all depends on what I want to play at the time. Right now I'm playing F.E.A.R. and Crysis on my PC all the time, but guaranteed when Crisis Core comes out my PC and PS3 won't see much action for a while.

Yes, ever since I got it its basically the only gaming system I've played. But once I get a PS3 it might become split more equally between the two. But its still extremely cool and works well as a main gaming device with its awesome games.

I don't have one, but if I had, I definitely would. I don't want to watch videos when I'm on the bus. I would listen to music on it once in a while.

No, just got a DS. I'll get one after getting a PS3 (next christmas).

I know it's hypothetical, but if I had FFVII:CC I wouldn't play anything else but that!

My PSP would not be worth the money unless I could do other things with it besides gaming.

My PSP was replace as my mobile movie/MP3 player when I got my Zune 5 months ago. Then I sold my PSP and bought a PS3.

No psp is a secondary system for me. It compliments my ps3 very well and provides sony gaming on the go.

Right now the PSP is my primary console. I don't have any of the other new systems so I've been playing the PSP a lot. Plus I can play it at work on my lunch breaks. Right now I'm working on Jeanne D'Arc, Siphon Filter: Dark Mirror and goofing around with Guilty Gear.
