I am going to be blunt, I just based this topic off of something I read on the Nsider Sages forum (even though I am not a member) and read this blog/news website which had an interview with the guy in charge of Sony.

http://kotaku.com/gaming/kotaku-magu/kotaku-magu-tretton-offers-to-buy-unsold-ps3s-for-1200-235204.php

He has just opened the flood gates, and said he will pay anyone $1200 if they find a PS3 which has been on the shelves for more than five minutes. And considering the amount of unsold consoles, well he owes a LOT of money.

what do you mean?
A while back, Sony sued this company, who sells imported games all around the globe. Allegedly, the company sold PSPs to European customers before it was officially released there. Sony won the lawsuit, forcing the site to shut down. This ticked off TONS of people who relied on that site for imported games.

So Europe was trying to get the games early?

Heh, one good thing about wifi connections and consoles is being able to surf the internet on them!

Luis
13th February 2007, 11:26 PM
Yeah and I don`t need to pay for internet either. I just steal someones access point and there, free internet.

That`s one advantage that the PSP has over the computer. Also the PSP doesn`t catch any virus. This is my mini computer.

It's good that are no viruses for videogame consoles yet, but when there are it will be hell to go online.

You can connect the PSP to a camera. It also downloads them too and send them to people`s e-mail address or to another PSP.

22nd February 2007, 08:47 PM
ok thats cool

Luis
23rd February 2007, 01:50 AM
I thought the PSP had a build in camera at first but it didn`t.

caprontos
23rd February 2007, 06:46 PM
that sucks it would have been nice.. do they sell a thing you can connect it to to make it a camra or can you only connect camras to it?

Luis
23rd February 2007, 07:01 PM
With the USB connector.

caprontos
23rd February 2007, 07:06 PM
alright .....

Do they still cost over $200 (PSP's) I no PS3's are like $600 (both US prices)

Luis
23rd February 2007, 07:09 PM
Yeah their still $200. Mines is used, which was like $170.

caprontos
23rd February 2007, 07:22 PM
DS's are only alittle over $100 i think. Once I have a job I'll have the money to buy these.. but less time to use them.

Can you not trade in an old system to lower the cost of a DS/other console?

Luis
23rd February 2007, 10:48 PM
No, I never heard that before.

aye I think you can at a gamestop or EB but thats only because there buying yours and you can use that money toward a DS/or whatever. But I want to keep my SP and I want to keep my other systems to.. and all my games...

Luis
