From the current rumors, battery like will be from 2 to 3 hours while playing games only. That\'s enough to doom the system in my opinion.

There have been a couple of threads about the PSP (most of them started by me...:rolleyes: ) anyway, I posted some pics of it last year and it didn\'t look like a GBA killer...and it still doesn\'t look like one. And the fact that the batteries will only last 2 to 3 hours does doom the system. Especially considering the complexity of the games that will be released on it.

That\'s why there\'s voltage adapters out there. I never use batteries. ;^^

I really not looking forward to this system... I still want a GameGear and this. But maybe that\'s because I know what games there is with the GG. ;^^

Yes, look at me crazy. I want an ancient handheld. When you guys play your fancy, thin GameBoy Advances, I\'ll be laughing. ...Why? Because I wanted to. ;^^

I\'m not sure that\'s what Sony had in mind concerning battery life. :lol:

That\'s nice if you only play the system at home or in a car. However, if you are on the move (in public transportation or just outside, for example), your adapter won\'t help much. It all depends of where you play with the system.

I can understand that one, since I want to buy a Sega Nomad someday :) For those who don\'t know, a Nomad is similar to a Game Gear, only a bit larger and with the ability of playing Genesis games on the go. The only downside is that it\'s a battery eater...

Their is a major flaw in the PSP. Some say that\'s good. But if you drop a disc while walking around in Disney Land it will get scratched up and might not play right. Cartridges are best for portibles. You drop them and the only thing you need to worry about is water and the fat guy coming its way.

Yeah but the battery life might not be the only thing that dooms this system. I heard that these things will break if a fly lands on them. Then it would just be a waste of money.:miam:

Actually, each mini-disc for the PSP is enclosed in a small plastic box. That way, the disk can\'t get scratched if you just drop it, but it still isn\'t as resistant as a GB cartridge. You can view a picture of the thing on this page.
