Sony PSP

Sony's PSP (Playstation Portable) is a great handheld gaming system. The device is somewhat small, much smaller than the Nintendo DS that came out at about the same time as the PSP. The games have incredible graphics, and the gameplay is usually up to par with any home console. The selection of games for the PSP is decent. It has all the sports games you would expect, plus all the action thriller type games like Grand Theft Auto. I have never had any major problems with my PSP, except that I have one dead pixel on my screen. It didn't effect the gameplay at all, and I actually didn't even notice it until about a week after I bought it. However, when buying a PSP, this has always been an issue, so my advice would be to buy a PSP in a store and check it out beforehand.
