PSP 3000 or PSP GO.

I'm having problems Deciding which PSP to get, i have about 3 weeks to make the choice, which may seem like long but, for me time does not go slow. i need something that will survive a 2x 4 hours Coach journey, Money shouldn'be too much of a problem, i hope. i'm not a big fan of downloading games but i love the PSP GO's 16GB Internal Flash Memory and that it's lightweight. but i like the PSP 3000 removable battery cause if i run out i just replace it if i have a second available. and i prefer having Disks instead of Downloads, (Don't know why, its just me) but i suppose i could live with downloads... if any of you could give me help on which one would be the better choice i would be very grateful... thank you in advance... :)

Just get a large memory card and a 3000.

You'll have the UMD games, and the option to throw in a second battery if needed.

Thank you very much, i'm gonna get the PSP 3000 then so once i get paid i'm off to get one cheers, i've asked alot of people but the only reason they gave me was PSP Go because its new. soooo again thank you. and one more question does the PSP 3000 come with a mains Charger or do you need to buy one seperately...

It comes with a charger!

For people new to PSP I would strongly consider the Go - ok it's more expensive and no second hand game market but it does have some very nice features and is a very portable/pocket size when compared to the 3000.

I have a 3000 and will never get a Go unless there is a way I can get all my UMDs converted over. But portability isn't an issue for me - I don't need it to fit in my pocket. I have used a Go and the design is very nice and the button positioning not as awkward as you might think by looking at it but.....

I think I'm going to buy a 3000 and Go at the same time. Use the 3000 at home with UMDs and use the Go when on the go.

that just about sums it up

I'd recommend the Go beacause itts got Bulit in mic, bluetooth, and 16Gb, but if you hate downloads and love UMDs get the 3000 it has mic, but no bluetooth and you can buy the new 16Gb memory card thats been out for a while now

I really like the go... It suit my needs much better. I just put it in my pocket and that's it... I already have more than ten games in it and I dont see myself carrying umd's with me everywhere... Loving the digital age!

Or you could wear pants with bigger pockets, download games from PSN onto a 3000, and it could do the exact same thing for $50 less :D

buy a ps2 if u cant afford a ps3 slim,both consoles have more value and better games,most of the psp library is ps1 and ps2 ports,the psp is fun,but u'll get bored very quickly.

I've been reading up on the fact that the 3000 screen has some issues with visible scan lines? How bad is this and would it be a reason to consider buying the GO or even the 2000? I've heard the 3000 is even being discontinued silently.

yeah that sounds less absurd......

to the TC: i would recommend getting the 3000 god of war bundle or the rockband unplugged bundle (both of those games are great). and then get a 4gb or 8gb memory stick to go with it. Also if you have some extra $ i'd say buy a good hardcase to protect the psp. After all that you'll STILL probably spend LESS than buying a PSPGO w/o any games. Then you could also get a 2nd battery for when you are on longer trips.

i dont see many GOOD reasons to get the Go.....other than its smaller, supports blue tooth headsets? and has 16gb of storage built in. also it's worth noting that the extra removable memory for the pspgo (if u somehow use up all 16gb) will be more expensive than a memory stick pro duo, since its a different newer format apparently.

(p.s. i would recommend looking for memory sticks used and/ or on amazon, they can be expensive at stores like target/walmart/etc)

I predict within 4 post of mine this will turn in to a point less argument. That said 3000 unless you can afford to just throw away your UMDs.

Im a brand new PSP owner and guess which system I settled to buy... the PSP 3000!

Why? Well, apart from the fact that I bought it cheap, I walked into my local EB games store (I'm in Australia by the way) and picked up some second hand UMD games. And guess what, when I'm done they can simply go back to ebay or EB, or I can keep them. And the 16GB memory stick will be reserved for watching my converted TV shows, movies and music, instead of wasting space taking up games I may never play again.

Who uses bluetooth anyway; I have enough trouble pairing a headset to my phone without remembering to charge the headsets damn battery first!

GO GET THE PSP 3000 - There's a rumour that little big planet will have a bundled PSP 3000 pack with it too.

go with the 3000 u get the best of both worlds
