Oh. This question. Very frequently asked by my friends.
It's better to get PSP 1000/2000 (I own a 2000 myself) cos' you
can modify and play *ahem* pirated/downloaded games from
third-party sources. HOWEVER, if you don't plan to do that (which
means you have to waste around 30 to 60 bucks on a UMD) you may get
a PSP 3000 with much better graphics/sounds. But what's most
important is that you look long-term. It is literally impossible to
carry around 20 UMDs without getting them spoiled one day (maybe it
is possible, but yeah, kinda exaggerated) and if you're like, a
hardcore gamer, it is recommended to download games. Like you
know the websites where you can download PSP games like PSP blender
and etc, you need to pay the website (some are trustworthy, some
are SO NOT) then you can download unlimited games for most
websites. For me, sure I own a PSP, but I don't have the guts to
try out the website thing. UMDs are best for me, if I can afford
them.
The price of a PSP (I got it at FunZCenter in AMKHub, I think
this is the shop name o.o) with the freebies and such was 400-500
when I got it. But yeah, PSP 3000 is out. So if you're getting PSP
2000, I think the price has gone down. But if you're getting PSP
3000, it's pretty much sadded (to me).
Chin Eng, with regards to one of your posts, PSP 3000 is
non-modifiable according to what I heard. I'm not really sure now.
Ignore this if you already knew.
I hope this information would be useful to people =D
