also my pocketwatch arrived with it, check the thread. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=940380[/url]
I bought a "Scratched" Tablet PC on ebay; No scratches on it, boots to WinXP Tablet, nice! $120. Hardly used. Beat that!
I got a fully working PSP-1000 for $20 once, because the kid who previous had it was retarded and thought it fried itself when the charger was not working. Beat that
PSPs are really great, too bad they stopped making games for it for a year and a half before they started again last year, no one even supports it anymore. The graphics are incredible for a portable, I still can't believe they haven't made a second one and not just update it. I mean, psp has a 333mhz processor, a $250 hand held should come out with a 1gz snapdragon, or a Tegra. The old psp has a 480 x 272 4.3 inch 163 PPI (same as current iPhone, new one has 329 though) Sure it's a big screen, but come on, needs to be higher resolution, they could double it with todays screens. Now I don't think it needs everything, but it should be about games rather than media, like what Nintendo does, I mean I have a Droid, it's taken the place of almost ever other gadget I have, but great games it wont do. No one will make games for the app market that cost more than $5 or no one will buy them. but psp? they have games for $50, and are made buy bigger developers. It should focus on online playing, the only game I ever could have fun playing online was Soccom FTB. Come on sony. this should be it's own thread. Oh and the new games you can download? Well due to people getting used to how phone app stores work, no one will pay $50 to download a game. I am glad this hasn't happened with XBLA and you can still pay $20 for a great game on it.

My PSP was free. :colbert: Entered some random competition and won it :buddy:
I just looked at the new romantically apocalyptic comic, and thought this would be a perfect background, and it is... oh boy it is... [img]http://www.cubeupload.com/files/40e00ikillyouinthenameofd.png[/img]
Relatedish, when the ipod nanos came out, went to the store and got one for $80. Now they're 199, bargain.
I want cheap stuff.

I can literally do anything with the PSP now.
[QUOTE=MR-X;22501213]Most people who buy PSPs mod them or use custom firmware. I do. I can literally do anything with the PSP now.[/QUOTE] really? I would like a tutorial please, but im guessing im going to need a Pandora battery, and another memory stick so lemme save up for a little.
Not necessarily, what's the firmware on it? You will need a new memory stick though. Preferably a big one, as PSP games are usually 400MB+, even around 1.2GB sometimes (ie, Crisis Core: FFVII). But remember, downloading games you don't own is illegal! v:v:v
I love my hacked PSP, it's so useful to just play some GTA when I have an extra few minutes at school, unlike using the UMD where GTA takes around 20 minutes to load.
I found a screen you could've got for $10 cheaper on DealExtreme: [url]http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10158[/url] [editline]06:01PM[/editline] It's sold out though. Doesn't matter.

I got my PS3 for $75 from some guy at Gamestop because they wouldnt buy it.
I think your PSP just called you a whore.

Figured it out and walked around my neighborhood trying to find a signal.
