I read so many threads and articles about dead pixels and was litterally scared to cop a psp but in the end it had to be done. I've had serious bad luck with sony but suprisingly i got a psp witthout dead pixels and started off with ridge racer. I love the psp from the beginning then i had went out got wipeout and darkstalkers then nba then metal gear acid then lumines and now nba streets showdown. The psp is great and my only compalint is my 1 gig stick from sony wont be here to beginning of june thats right over a month from now. Only one more final and its on time for psp.. jade empire.. tekken 5, and all the fps i've been dying to play. i'm taking the summer terms off so i can save up for another term and some serious gaming and chilling with the ladies.
