PlayStation.com - PSP
PlayStation.com - PSP
I actually got a Japanese Import from Play Asia which was the value pack which included various extras and Ridge Racers (the game).
The PSP is lovely and the screen fantastic. To be honest I haven't played with it much, but the graphics are amazing and though obviously not real, the 3D graphics are pretty realistic.
Unfortunately though I've told the system that everything should be in English, some game bits still seem to be in Japanese, which means I cant read them.
It comes with WiFi support (again not tried yet) and can be used in AdHoc mode for PSP to PSP gaming or through an access point. There's a USB connector (though there doesn't seem to be a USB cable supplied) and a memory stick slot (supporting memory stick duo).
As soon as some UK games come out. I'll write an update, hopefully they'll work as the UK is region 2 as is Japan. I really think Sony have come out with a winner here, and though the Nintendo DS is out over here already, the PSP will knock it into insignificance as soon is it arrives on UK shores.
