PSP The New Wave Of Entertainment

What Is PSP?

PSP, or PlayStation Portable, was developed in the U.S. in 2005 by the Sony Computer Entertainment Company. It soon became a highly desirable, portable and handheld wireless device for multiple entertainment purposes. A one-time fee to TiVo ToGo allows users to watch television and save the data to a memory device. The "Location Free" option allows TV to be watched anywhere in the world on the PSP device.

The PSP system allows users to view photos, listen to music, watch pre-recorded and live television, enjoy movies and backstage footage, access the Internet through a wireless connection, as well as the many free downloads available through the PlayStation website (wallpaper, movie trailers, screenshots, news & events).

PSP also offers Packs depending on your entertainment needs. The PSP Entertainment Pack includes the PSP system, battery pack, AC adapter, ATV Off Road Fury: Blazin Trails UMD Game, Lords of Dogtown UMD movie, and a 1-GB Memory Stick ProDuo. The PSP Core Pack includes the PSP system, AC adapter, and a battery pack. The PSP Value Pack includes the PSP system, battery pack, AC adapter, Memory Stick ProDuo, pouch and wrist strap, cleaning cloth, and headphones with remote control.

PSP users can download games through the PlayStation website. Users connect directly to the PlayStation website from their PSP system and access the download portion of the webpage.

PSP game downloads include game information, game demos, game trailers, and game audio tracks. The Content Pack on the PlayStation website is a collection of pre-selected downloads that can be downloaded directly to the PSP system.

The games are viewed on a widescreen LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) and allow users to play on their own or access a multiplayer function. The multiplayer function allows users to play against each other on the PSP system, no matter where they are in the world.

The PSP system has certainly made its mark in the gaming world with its outstanding graphics, portability and multi-functionality.
