Is the psp the same as a ps2?

The video out feature over component is actually kinda lame, its letterboxed down way too small, the cord is too short for most setups, and it's awkward using the system with a cord on the bottom.

A nice setup for it is the Playstation 3D display. With a 24" screen, you're not going to want to sit too far away anyway, and the monitor has a special PSP zoom mode that fits game video exactly to the screen.

If you think the PSP 3000 battery life sucks then you have yet to meet the 3DS and Vita.

My vita has better battery life than my psp 2000.

My psp 3000 with the extended life battery lasts nearly 11 hours

I got 7 - 8 hours when I had a PSP 3000. But I also only used the memory stick. Never used UMD. Vita is about 5 hours. 3DS is about 3 1/2. 3DS XL is solid like the Vita.

Thats lowest brightness no sound and running a game off the memory stick, emulators tend to drain the batteries on mine faster

For what it's worth, I generally had WiFI off on the PSP. Low - mid brightness and headphones. With the Vita I leave the WiFi and Bluetooth on because it doesn't greatly affect the battery. With my 3DS XL I leave the WiFi off unless necessary because it does affect battery life quite a bit.

Back to PSP and PS2. Both are wonderful.

Ah well I have stock battery. I also play at home 99% of the time so I have max brightness and sound & wifi on heh.

... and usually playing umds.

Hence me upgrading to the 3DS XL. And no i haven't met the Vita yet.

That is good to know! I hope to snag one of these if it ever gets near ~$100.

I saw that too and now I holding out for the day when they get back to that price. Also I need to have a third bedroom or something that it would actually make sense having it in....
