Playstation Portable - New Playstation on the Scene

Technology is always progressing and moving forward in design and function. Some of the improvements are tremendously beneficial and enhance the technology, whereas some are actually a set back. When the new Playstation Portable debuted, many users were skeptical about whether or not the new system would still play the same games as the old system, and if the features would be better.

September 6, 2007 was the launch date for the new Playstation Portable Slim & Lite. The name summed up its brand new look. On the surface the hand held console looked the same, but upon picking it up, the difference was immediately noticeable. The new Sony Playstation Portable was 33% lighter and 19% slimmer. However, the real improvements are inside the little hand held gaming console.

So what can you expect from the new gaming unit? You can expect shorter load times. The designers at Sony doubled the internal memory to 64 MB. The LCD screen is lighter. The D-pad is raised a bit higher, thus helping your fingers gain better control when playing. It also now has the ability to charge via its USB port while gaming. This was something the original could not do. Before, you could only charge the PSP system while not gaming.

Games are a big expense when it comes to playing. Most people elect to purchase games versus renting them. This was a great concern with the new Playstation Portable. Would the old games still play on the new system or would players be forced to buy all new games if they wanted the new system? Rest easy, because the new PSP does play the old games, and as well, any new Playstation Portable game will play on the older system.

The new Playstation hand held gaming system will not always be the only game in town. Nintendo is answering back with the new Nintendo DS Lite. For now though, Sony can ride high on its incoming revenue from all of the gaming bundles. The limited edition PSP’s will fly off the shelves even at a whopping $199.00 and will probably go for twice that on Ebay. The gaming world is a very competitive arena between rival companies and they must constantly reinvent their software and consoles to be faster and better. There is little doubt that Sony has met this challenge head on.

Life always appears to move at full speed. Work, school, doctor’s visits and even a trip to the dentist eats up our valuable time. There seems to be not enough time in the day for relaxation and having fun. But what if you have fun right in your livingroom anytime you wanted? That is where the Playstation 3 steps in. The design of the Playstation system is geared towards the high end graphics gamers in mind. It plays many different kind of games as well as movies.
