Mystics Apprentice 2,397 Posted January 20, 2013 Let me start by saying I'm incredibly indecisive, and always second guess my choices whenever I make them. I'm thinking to get either a PSP or PS3, since I have neither and there's games for both that I'd like. I *sort* of have the opportunity to get one or the other, but I'm having such a hard time deciding! My sister owns a PSP, so I've gotten to play Dissidia, BbS and Crisis Core. However, I'd love for us to be able to play together, which is why I was considering getting a PSP. On the other hand, I've always wanted a PS3. I'm seriously wanting to get 1.5 when it comes out, as well as play Final Fantasy XIII to see if it's really as bad as everyone says. I'd want to get the FF X remake when it comes out as well, so I've got plenty of titles to purchase for the PS3. But--it's more expensive, and it means I still won't have my own PSP to play with my sister and friends. ...Geez, why do these kinds of decisions have to be so hard?

SinHeartlessAngel 555 Posted January 20, 2013 PSP sucks so much, every time i have played any PSP it was all derpy. GET A PS3. But remember that the newer models can't play PS2 games, but they can play PS1 games. 1 Mystics Apprentice reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ruby 224 Posted January 20, 2013 Well I think I would choose the ps3 because you can always play her psp but you can't play a ps3 since she doesn't have one I'm not sure if that made any sense Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SquareSora 133 Posted January 20, 2013 PS3 of course. PSP had a good run but now we have the PS3 and 1.5 remix is coming out on it lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanitasisKirby 1,227 Posted January 20, 2013 I think you'd be better off purchasing the PS3. It's a lot better. You'll be able to purchase a PSP once you have enough money, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwiliLord 232 Posted January 20, 2013 Estacion de Juegos 3. Still has exclusives and games coming out for the next few years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cricket 1,180 Posted January 20, 2013 Definitely the PS3, better titles to choose from, althouth BbS came out on the PSP. The PS3 has a much wider life cycle and room/options for more games and there are so many new games they are working on for it. 1 Mystics Apprentice reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystics Apprentice 2,397 Posted January 20, 2013 Wow, it looks like the PS3's the way to go! I hadn't been expecting such an overwhelming response in its favor, lol. Thanks for the advice! Maybe I'll convince myself to just bite it and get one...are they really as wonderful as they seem? PSP sucks so much, every time i have played any PSP it was all derpy. GET A PS3. But remember that the newer models can't play PS2 games, but they can play PS1 games. Aw, really? I mean, I know I like the PSP because my sister has it, but still... I'm thinking a PS3 might be better, so that way I can actually play something new. As for the PS2 compatibility; I'd noticed that when I first started looking at them a couple years ago, which was why I had decided to go for a simple PS2 at the time. But now that I have the PS2 I don't really think the PS3 would need to be compatible. Thanks for mentioning that, though. Well I think I would choose the ps3 because you can always play her psp but you can't play a ps3 since she doesn't have one I'm not sure if that made any sense Don't worry; that made perfect sense. That's kind of what I'd been thinking as well. I think you'd be better off purchasing the PS3. It's a lot better. You'll be able to purchase a PSP once you have enough money, though. Yeah...you're probably right. In the next year(s) or so I'll bet you could probably get a PSP for almost nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the good PS2 and PSP games will be made available on the PlayStation Store or as a HD remaster. 2 Mystics Apprentice and Xalaru reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteCrow 55 Posted January 20, 2013 I prefer PS3. If you think about it: " I'll buy a PSP and the same games as my sister". It will get boring very quickly, plus you're not getting any new game experiences. PS3 on the other hand, has lots of amazing games and remakes yet to come. And why not let your sister play the PS3, since she lets you use her PSP. That's what I think. 2 Mystics Apprentice and Xalaru reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oniaku 280 Posted January 20, 2013 Save a little money and get both. A used psp is only about $40 right now. 1 Silent reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indecypher 495 Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) Ps3, it sounds like you only want the psp to play with your friends. Ps3 has free online play and a bunch of people looking to play as well. Edit: edit. Edited January 20, 2013 by Indecypher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xalaru 445 Posted January 20, 2013 PS3. My best friend gave me his PSP for free last Easter because of how much he knew I wanted to play BbS, so that was awesome of him. But I got a PS3 for Christmas this year and it's amazing. Especially the Sly Cooper trilogy. Anyway, if anything, get it for the KHHD ReMiX (which seriously better get a European release this time or I will scream at my lack of an EU Re:CoM). At least you've played the PSP before, and you can still borrow it from here on out. PSP's are a dying console unfortunately, so you'd best opt for the PS3, especially as you said yourself you have more game choices. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dusk 910 Posted January 20, 2013 Buy PS3,you should buy PSP as well though, you can find those on crazily cheap prices so getting one shouldn't be problem. 1 Indecypher reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
