Got Me A New PSP 3001

Well I finally got me a brand new psp 3001 at gamestop several weeks ago and I really like it. It is piano black but its super thin and light weight. Does not feel like a brick in my pocket or in my hands. I was going to get the psp go used at gamestop for 100 dollars but they only had one there and it was on hold for someone and they couldn't sell it to me.

So I checked out the silver ones that was used and it seems pretty cheap looking and most of them had scratches on them. For 20 dollars more I can get a brand new one fresh from its box. I went ahead and did that and I am happy that I did. I don't mind it being a finger print magnet on the front and back cause I can always wipe it with a cloth. I got my foam case for it that I had for the old psp 1001 and it fits the new one good. 

I got a 8gb memory stick for my psp that I have used on my old one and it holds quite a bit, I only used about half of it and still got some room on it. I do want to get some cables for the new psp that can play on the tv and watch movies from it. I plan on saving for a ipod classic 160bg for my music and videos for christmas and I will do a review on that if I get one. For now I am using my new psp for my media. I can finally play 2 player games with my friends on final fantasy dissidia.

I was able to get custom firmware onto my psp which allows me to play backup games, emulators and put custom themes onto it. Its really neat to have it on the psp. This is a video I took from my psp from my laptop using remotejoy lite that only works if I have my psp in custom firmware. I am not too sure on what to do with my old psp just yet. I have it stored in its original box in my closet for now. I may use it as a backup in case something happens to my new one. But I have to say the screen looks more vibrant on the new psp then the old one did. Everything looks clearer. I am enjoying it more now and listening to music on it more when I go out or at home.

Getting a new psp 3000

Well it looks like I will be getting a brand new psp 3000 since my old one is outdated and doesn't work right. I will be getting it in a couple months. I will be also getting the sony street style headphones with it since all I have been using now is the sony clip on earphones that are not that great.

I am really excited on getting a new psp since I have not updated my psp in over 4 years or so. I will be also getting the cables to connect it to my tv so I can play the games on a bigger screen and watch movies from it. I already got a carrying case for it so I don't need to get one. I am also going to be putting on custom firmware onto it so I can play games from the memory card without having to take the umds with me and worrying about breaking them.

Just about all my friends at my local yugioh tournament have psps so it be great to play 2 players with them again. I will probably be doing a review on the sony street style headphones when I get it and the psp. So stay tuned for that.
