So the PSP is comming up very soon. Is Anyone Going To Buy one?
Its odd though, With only a few days left in the launch, theres no sign of
commercials or playable PSP kiosks. Well my guess is as good as yours. And I have to agree when i hear people talk like this:

"They're afraid that overuse in a store setting will reveal flaws; wouldn't want to hurt the hype by having "John Q." Consumer walk into EB and see the PSP demo missing it's square button with a "Out of Order" sign hanging over the promotional material. The Fanboys and Hardcore have already pre-ordered, but for people on the fence that sort of sight could do damage, especially just before launch."

Am I going to buy one? Nah. I figured the PS2 and PSP are the same, in terms of graphics. The PSP has crappy launch Titles, which are mostly Ports of crap EA games and Activision games... why play them on this little screen when i can play them on my Huge Screen at home (or why play them at all... its just the same ol' Madden!@__@) And the topping on the cake is the Battery life. About 3 hours for movies and about 4 hours for graphic wise games. Which brings me to the UMD format movies. Why the heck pay almost triple on a UMD when i can pay 10-15 bucks on a regular DVD?

PSP for me? Nope... i rather get me a DS and play that new Katamari Damacy game thats comming up.
