As many of you know, I'm a sucker for limited or special editions of pretty much anything, so it's no surprise that I picked up the Limited Edition God of War Entertainment Pack this Tuesday. To think that I put off playing God of War: Chains of Olympus just in order to buy this package when it came out is beyond me.
I'm surprised how much the little changes Sony made to the PSP changed the way playing games on the system feel. I hated the "analog" nub on the original model and left my PSP collecting dust on my bookshelf. The nub on the new model feels 10 times better and I find myself using it as my default rather than switching the controls to the D-pad. They also made all of the buttons stand out a little more, so you can actually feel feedback when you press down on them.
Gone are the days of my hands cramping up after a 10 minute session with my PSP because the new slim design fits nicely in my gigantic hands. Also, the inclusion of an option to put your PSP on a TV is a nice addition. I think the biggest and best change for me is the fact that I can charge the damn thing through a USB cable now. I can finally retire the ridiculous cables that came with the system.
If you're thinking about upgrading your current PSP, I'd say do it without any hesitations.
If they made special edition condoms, I'd probably buy those too
The slim is nice. I got the silver one myself. Keep in mind it also has more internal memory than the original PSP as well as the screen being abit brighter.
Another thing the slimmie has is you can use skype to call other skype users on their psp slim for free. That shit is pretty cool K.
Sony: No one wants cases with their games! If they want to protect them, they'll store 'em in the PSP!
Dev: But what if they have multiple games?
Sony:... You're fired.
