First of all, thanx alot for the replies guys and hope you guys keep on replying me, coz I am so confused at the moment.
OK, I will be more frank here. First of all, I don't want to spend bucks on these coz of financial reasons. I will be able to buy PS2 for around $140 it seems. As for the PS2 games, I don't have problem coz I am in Beijing now and I can easily buy tons of games for very good prices (same's gonna happen when I go back to Kathmandu (Nepal).
I am going back to my country in 2 months time and I don't know what's gonna happen for a year or so. I might take rest for a year or I might work in 2/3/4 months time. I might work back in my country or I might make a return back to China.
Then, one friend came to me and told me buy PS2. It costs around $240 which includes all the stuffs (games so on). Well, I might be jumping from $140 to $240 and I don't want to go more than that at all, so stop telling me save money and buy PS3.
I will either buy one of those NOW or I won't just buy it. Simple as that.
I am done with my undergraduate studies, so no more classes for atleast a year (I will pursue my Masters Degree only a year later if I plan to). So, no games during break time.
The best thing of PSP is that it's portable. But what I am worried is - "How are the games in that and how different could it be playing in that compared to PS2?"
I love to play games like
Pro-Soccer / other sports, I want to play
Transformers / space stuffs kinda games (even if I haven't played in PSP/PS2).
I hate games like - Age of Empires (Sorry guys)
I don't have a PSP but my brother does. Pravesh, I think the only person who can answer that question is yourself. It's like asking whether to buy a laptop or a PC.
If you're on the bus/train most of the time, or having weird 2-hour breaks/gaps in between your classes, then PSP is the way to go. Why? It's because it's portable and you can use it in the amount of a lot scattered free times you have.
If you're at home most of the time, I think you should go for a PS2. Wouldn't it be hard to find PS2 games nowadays though?
But if you ask me, really, just save up for a PS3 or instead save your money by playing PC games in the PC you already have.
Just like Han, Pravesh. Save your money on upgrading your PC (if needed), and use it for games. But that's just my opinion.
I am not interesting in upgrading my PC, coz I don't have that. Instead I have got a laptop and I wanted to have a separate stuff to play games.
get a DS! way more innovative games the psp is just a portable but crummier ps2
Damn, you are not making me happy. IS it that bad ???
The PS2 has no future. I loved the thing, but there's no future in it. Only a few good years(2 I'd say) are left for it.
I don't think I would hang around that for more than that if I buy one.
And I'm strictly talking PS2 V PSP in this thread. No XBOX, no Wii, no PS3 no whatever. It's just that if you want to buy one of those NOW, you should go for the PSP. The PS2, despite being a great console, is no longer worth it. Unless you find it for a terrific price and you so desperately want to play a few games
But if you buy a PS2, you need to have older games. Who would go buy GT3 now? OR GTA Liberty City? Those two were my favourite solo games, I still have them and when I'm in the mood I play them. Now we're going to have GT5, on the PS3... It's all about logic and evolution. I wouldn't go buy the Nintendo64 now, no games are out and it's very hard to find the older ones. This will be the case with the PS2 in 2-3 years. Unless you want the PS2 to play a couple of games only, then there's no reason to buy it at this moment, if you didn't own it before(therefore have PS2 games). Yet the PSP is something newer, and I don't think that there's something SONY will launch a superior version.
So strictly PSP Vs PS2, I'd go for PSP, despite any past I had with the consoles.
Get PS3 if you are still undecided (and want to go for SONY)
As I said earlier, no PS3 !!!! :stuckup:
What games can I play in PSP ?? HOw much might it cost ?? Hope it's under $240 or so on ??
The other special feature I loved of PSP is that, I can also watch movies on it, when I want, so on .. Any other features I might have to know. And worse points ??
