PSP Go!

One of my good friends told me about the upcoming PSP Go and I am so impressed with Sony. At first glance I knew that it was going to be great. From design to hardware they have really outdone themselves.

The first thing that I noticed about this new PSP is the size. It's actually 50% smaller and 40% lighter than the previous models. The design has also changed immensely, it now has a slideout 'control board' and no UMD slot, so you can only download your games to the device. Don't fret though, if you buy the PSP Go Sony will send you digital versions of the games you already have for free, all you have to do is go to their site.

You now are given 16GB of internal memory for your new games, movies, music, and pictures. Standard games take up about 1.8 GB's of memory so the 16 probably won't last long which is probably why Sony has kept the Memory Stick Duo port. You can plug in a card with a max of 32 GB's which gives you a whopping 48GB. It also has improved speeds because of a newly added 480 Mhz processor. Bluetooth has been added to the gadget even though i still don't know what people could use it for.

Gamestop has an upgrade offer as usual. You bring in your old PSP 3000 or Slim with 3 games and you'll get $100 towards the Go. That means you only have to come up with $150 more. That's actually not much for a brand new game console.

It's going to be in stores soon so make sure to GO and get yours!
