PSP down to £149.99
 

Didn't take long for them to drop the price then. Its such a quality piece of kit I don't know why sales are doing so bad for them to have to drop the price by £30? Mind you could do with some decent new games and Sony to pull their finger out with Gran Turismo mobile :rolleyes: September is the latest release date I have heard for it now.

Also seen Xbox 360's in stock at lots of places now at the normal prices, ie £289 for the premium pack. Seems demand for that has fallen away now as well.

Going on holiday for 2 weeks so gonna get one at some point. Just not sure whether to wait until I get to the airport, or get one when I get out to Canada and then claim back the tax. Not entirely sure which would be cheaper, tax free or buy here or claim back the tax?

Either way, got to take the plunge now. Stick it on the never never and wait for pay day :D And £150 is a steal when I think what my mate paid for an import 18 months or so ago!

FYI - spotted the 2GB sony mem sticks on pspworld.co.uk for 66 quid - only issue is they are preorder at the moment....

anyone know where i can get a psp 1.5 version from, cant seem to get one from no where for money or love

It's worth looking on Ebay, quite a few knocking around cheaper than that....

But the £150 one doesnt have a case or memory card, so doesnt really work out any cheaper.

But who wants the standard case, headphones and memory card? Most people bin them and buy decent ones of each anyway.

Can you surf the net with one of these?

Yes as long as you have access to a wireless internet connection.

Whats Virtua tennis like? just bought this for £14 even though I dont have a psp [yet]!

I really enjoy it, one of the better games on the PSP IMO..... Can be a little bit laggy at times but does't detract from the game...

Anyone play 'homebrew' on their psp? I am looking at getting one but Im interested in some of the ports of games like doom and quake as well as emulators but it seems the later the firmwire the less likely its acheivable, any thoughts comments?

The prices have dropped as nearly all consumer electronics do. All the people who 'must' have one as soon as they're out have all bought theirs and all that is left is people who 'might like one' but don't want to pay a premium and the prices drop to reflect this.

I'd be tempted when they get to £99 which they WILL at some point. Besides, they make their money on the games sold rather than the console/handhelds etc.
