The PSP Go was only recently released, but is it worth the money? Go to the souce for albotas.com's Top 10 Reasons to Save Your Money and NOT Buy a PSP Go...

We’ve had the PSP, the PSP-2000, the PSP-3000, and now Sony just recently released the PSP Go. Is the fourth time really the charm?

The general consensus has been, “it’s pretty, but meh.” Sure, there are improvements like 16GB of built-in storage space, a built-in mic, and the ability to connect Bluetooth devices like a PS3 controller (not sure why you’d even wanna’ do that in the first place), but is the new system really worth it? I like sexy new gadgets as much as the next guy, and the PSP Go is about as sexy as they come (especially the white one!), but let’s set aside our geekiness for just a moment and break this down logistically.

      Irregardless, no serious gamer should bother with this system. Skip it.

        Regardless. Irregardless is a hateful little non-word. Don't soil my gamegrep.

        And if you take the term serious out of your sentence and replace gamer with person at all, then yes.

    Anyone who actually goes out and buys this is a goddamn idiot.

    I'll stick to my PSP Slim.

    Actually, Persona is going for $40 I think right now via PSN. Yeah, I really want to pay $40 for a digital-only copy that doesn't even include the soundtrack. Yeah...

      And the funny thing is, you can buy these games on your old PSPs anyway.

    For every smart thing Sony does, they do something else stupid that cancels it out.

    e.g. they released the PS3 Slim to wide appraisal. Then they released the PSP Go.

      True, but it's not really meant for people who already have a PSP.
