That's a dumb-ass way to apologize.

They might as well say, "we've made a beautiful handheld here, so if you don't like it, then get a DS." Real smart Sony. Real smart.

It's the Sony innovation that all the PSP fans were talking about. Making a button that only KIND of works.

BTW, I haven't heard much out of the PSP people lately. You guys still alive?

Hmmm....yeah, this guys right...I mean who needs to stop in GT4? Hmm, I guess PSP GT fans will have to bounce off of the walls to go in the right direction.

That guy is a complete dumbass. Why couldn't they just make the buttons a tad bit closer together. Now they're shipping all those PSPs that cost a shitload, and they're all defective, and they DON'T CARE.

AssFucks.

I guess it's not completely Sony's fault. If you think about it, these people went out and bought a product from Sony right when it first came out. These people should know that Sony is notorious for messing up the first waves of their products. It's the Sony tradition.

I guess I'm one of the PSP guys. I've not been checkign this sight as aften as normal, but i heard about the $250 price tag on the thing and i wanted to hear you guys bitch about it.
A sticky button does sound liek a problem, but it also soudns liek a problem not affecting many units. That's why he was unapolagetic. If you are one of the people with it, send it in. Take it back to best buy.
The game cube has notches. THAT was intentional. If it wasn't for those danged notches. But now that the PSP is 250 i think things are more betterer. You can get the DS for 150 or PSP for 250. Just like you cna get the Cube for 100 or the xbox or ps2 for 150. They arn't cheaper because they wanna be. They arn't cheaper because they need to be.

I do believe it was cheaper in Japan. So, it's not a necessity to be 250. Look, the PSP isn't worthless; the DS is just better. Better price, better games (that is based on opinion,) more innovation, and such.

If the sticky button which is "the way it was meant to be designed" according to Kutaragi is fixed, I will prolly get one. I like gadgets, and it is very pretty.

I had BETTER be fixed by the american release date!

I might wait to pick up a used PSP without all of the bundled extras to save me some bucks, but I'm definitely getting one.

What can I say, the graphics ARE better than the DS. Have you seen the trailer for the PSP Armored Core game? The trailer for Advent Shadow? The PSP is damn pretty, regardless of it's other faults.

Yeah, I wouldnt' like a sticky square button myself. Dynasty warriors is a square button masher, and i wanna play it.

Yeah, PSP looks about 10X better than DS to me, but the DS does look about 10X better than the SP. And it isnt' even supposed to be combating the PSP. They are supposed to be different niches or what ever. I'm sure nintendo is well on their way to a hand held that looks even better than the PSP and so is sony and maybe even microsoft...that'd rock.

I just got a vision. A Microsoft handheld gaming system. Same control scheme as the Xbox controller, PSP-quality or better screen, and a flawless port of Halo that supports 16-player wireless multiplayer games.

Aw yeah...

Well, Sony is finally doing something about it.
