If you can afford a PS3 you'd be better off buying a PSP AND another console, such as the 360 or the Wii. PS3 is currently over rated and over priced. You'd get much more use out of a 360 or a Wii than a PS3, and you'll have a PSP to boot!
HORI is the best out there I think. Someone tossed my laptop on top of my bare PSP the other day, leaving a huge gouge on the screen. It was so deep I thought that no way the screen protector protected the screen and I cringed as I peeled back the protector to see what damage had been done. To my amazement, the screen was scratchless and still looked as good as the day I bought it 2 years ago. As for storage protection, I use the Face Armor marketed by Gamestop. It's a hard plastic shell that connects to the screw holes on the top of the PSP and covers the whole top of the PSP and is able to swivel to act as an additional comfort grip while playing.
If you manually turn off your LCD and place the PSP on hold so the light never turns on when the PSP is accidentally bumped, you can get over 10 hours of play....it also depends on how loud you listen to it.
For it being such a simple fix, it's surprising Sony hasn't changed it...especially when they're trying to advertise the PSP as this all-in-one multimedia device. Sure..only place your 25 top songs on it...but Sony wants you to place a library of songs on it...So why don't they support it better?
Even though the material may not be produced anymore, it is still copyrighted and it is illegal to download and play on emulators if the creator of the game has not given permission to have it for free. It is not illegal, however, if you own the game in its original media or as some part of a collectors series...or if you pay a monthly subscription to a gaming service that offers the game and get it through them. In some way and at some point, the company had to make money off of you in order to make it legal. And while we're on the subject, what the hell happened to Sony's promise that we'd have the ability to download PS1 games directly to our PSP in the "coming Winter". Winter has come and gone!
Without the guitar it'll just be another beat button pushing game, like Space Station 5, etc. It would probably get old quick. What put guitar hero above all other beat games is the 'guitar' - not so much the game play. I don't see a guitar working on the PSP that would be practical. Nearly everyone would rather get it for their console. The advantage the DS has over the PSP for this game is the touch screen. At least they can create a digital guitar for you to tap.
Is Dominator like the latest Burnout series on Xbox? As in if you rear-end a by-stander car you knock it out of the way instead of crash? I found that much more fun :)
