I have a Nintendo DS and never play.. and i have a PS3 and i like the compatibility the 2 offers (PSP & PS3)

So i was thinking i might sell my DS and go for a PSP instead...

So there's the old one; PSP fat.. and the new one; PSP slim... I'd like to get a black one and get the new god of war..

I know i can get a cheaper PSP fat on ebay... but the slim as better options...

So which one should i get? is the slim really worth the price? or i can stick with the old psp? Or should i get a new psp and get a warranty just to be sure...

Anyway people i need help on this one... =)

there are no more fat psp's for sale. only slim&lite are available at stores. the only way u can get a fat one is buying it off someone or on ebay. but if you can buy the either one i dont know which one is better. both have features that are unique. the fat one is alot more durable than the slim&lite and the slim&lite is alot smaller and runs faster and has other features that the fat one doesnt have. so u make the decision!

Slim since it has more features and also has custom firmware. i dunno why no one thinks the Slim is capable of custom firmware. Mine is 3.90 M33 and is a felicia blue PSP slim.

No one said it was incapable. There's a certain kernel that's missing in the Slim.

i don't get how the loading time for the slim is faster cause me and my friend tested the same games for the slim and the fat at the same time and it didn't really load faster than the fat

on a few games, the slim actually loads slower than the fat one. but on every other one, it loads faster, even if only by a few hundredths of a second.
