Yeah, when I originally got mine (emulation was one of my biggest intentions to get one), I went through the whole process of downgrading it and everything, only to see how horrible SNES games ran and even some NES.

But, that was a good year or two ago. I'd imagine the emulators have gotten better?

You bet your fucking ass it has. With the latest custom firmware, you are able to play PSX ISOs on your PSP, with little to no problems. You have games like GTA, MGS, and Monster Hunter PSP. You a slew of emulators for various consoles, as well as homebrew programs. And eventually, you'll get games like the Final Fantasy Tactics remake. I still don't understand what many people have against the PSP. It's a good system - if you're open minded. In a community so biased for Nintendo, though, my words are probably just falling on deaf ears.

Cool. I'm also reminded that they're even going to have some official "Play PSX games on your PSP" going around in some time.

Regardless, I can just simply say I personally am not too big on handheld gaming. I just recently picked up my DS to play Portrait of Ruin, beat it in 7 hours, and now it sits again. Its okay to have handhelds on the road ... but I have a busy enough schedule as it is, and I have never found myself saying "okay I'm going on vacation, gotta pack my PSP/DS".

I really have no idea where I'm going with this, so I guess you can all just say I'm biased for being more of a console gamer. But yeah,

X-Box 360. No question. Gears of War = win.

A whole bunch of great games are coming out, and it is a pretty damned good system.

Lost Planet comes out so soon!

Not as much as you might expect, actually. All it takes is some patience, some confidence, and a USB cable. If you have all that, and are able to follow instructions, you won't screw anything up (of course, they have to be proper instructions).

Keep in mind that there are good games on the PSP - its entertainment value is not strictly limited to homebrew and emulation.

And who says you can't have both a DS and a PSP? Your bank balance, maybe, but both are good systems that are worth having.
