Its a great portable device and probably the best system right now. Even if I do have some control problems occasionally because I have problems holding it and reaching the buttons.The PSP looks pretty, but has had horrible games. God of War will be tempting and Echochrome looks like Sony is finally buying a clue. Maybe someday there will be 5 good games and the system will be worth buying. I am a huge Nintendo fan, when everyone jumped off the Nintendo bandwagon duringthe 64's lifespan, I was proclaiming the 64 the best system ever (It still is).  The Gamecube was a disappointment, and the Wii has innovation and fun on its side... but tons of games full of minigames.  Twilight Princess was ok,  Super Paper Mario was a disaster compared to its predecessors, and Wario Ware and Mario Party also aren't as good as previous incarnations. But with MP3, Mario Galaxy and in theory, SSBB coming out this year... I'm still giving Nintendo more money. Even if Galaxy is bad, it will still be one of the best games this year.i JUST got a ps2 because during its entire lifespan there were very few games that appealed to me. God of War, Okami, Shadow of the Colossus all came along later in the lifespan and I'll take my time sampling them and some of the ps2 platformers now for a lot less money.So far the ps3 has nothing I want to play, and Heavenly Sword looks like it might be a decent God of War clone. Uncharted looked nice, but further video showed it as too much shooter, not enough adventure game. Ratchet and Clank 4 might be worth getting ...after I played the first 3. Microsoft has followed up the pretty lame lineup for the original Xbox (Bioware's games, Halo and nothing of interest...and I'm still not sold on Halo after hating it at an Xbox launch party and never bothering to buy an Xbox) but this years 360 lineup looks absolutely amazing. The multi-platform games all look tons better on the XBox, Bioshock looks great, and Mass Effect is going to be a system seller even moreso than Halo 3. Plus, XBox Live seems to be providing fun that the other two are only dreaming of. As far as I'm concerned, Nintendo owns me on their past glory and franchises, and Microsoft has a very intriguing lineup for the immediate futute.</blockquote>
