"McDonalds"

In the McDonalds near me, it says it has wireless broadband there, does this mean i could link a ds up to it, and what would it be able to do?

I think they're all backwards compatible.

I'm hoping the PS3's backwards compatible.

Then I'll get some PS2 RPGs for it.

I just don't want to buy something that's going to die even if it is only 100 quid.

Although after all this time 100 quid is a daft price. I got a limited edition cube and 3 games for 30 quid less than that.

Even though I got Spider-Man 2 on UMD bundled with my PSP, I haven't really watched it.

Just because they're available, doesn't mean you have to buy them. Although if TV series did come out, I'd strongly consider buying them as they would be ideal to watch on my breaks etc at work.

As for Anti-PS2, well it depends on how 'Anti' you are - The PS2 is my least favourite current Gen console and I hardly touch it, but I love the PSP, probably because the dream of playing console-quality games in a handheld is finally here.

the Online function - out of the box - is just the sweet, sweet icing on the cake.

UMD movies would be great for train journeys. Don't think a nice shiny PSP in a bus while laughing at whatever's onscreen, in full view of the chavs in the back row will take off.

I think sketch shows would do well on portable devices like the PSP. On the bus you don't usually have time to watch a movie but you do have time to laugh at a few sketches.

Although obviously you can come back to a movie - but really it sucks having to do that.

Greetings Howard.

You don't have to. While a good idea, I don't really want to watch movies on a tiny screen. TV episodes, maybe.

So?

I'm really very tempted by the PSP, but I don't know why...

-I hated the PS2
-I don't like the idea of having to buy movies only for the PSP
-I already have an iPod

but they look purty. :(

Pah, I was playing my PSP online the other day.

For the crappy Sega freebies.

Ba ba da da da - we're selling out!

To play your DS online, obviously.

I have wi-fi in my house... all I need to do is wait for Nintendo to launch the DS online.

And of course for me to actually buy a DS.
