Talking

yes the are good but please supervise the games as some are adult content.

visitanta is a good place to buy them or the games store in los chris just don´t let them sell you the extra tat you only really need the psp and games.

thats a definate yes!! they are fab and my seven year old has had his moneys worth for sure. like robbie said though, be careful what games you choose as some are for adults only. the graphics are fantastic!! i would buy a wrist strap and safety cover for it though..i know how clumsy 7 year old boys are. i got one from Electrocris in El Camison.

My Mood:
I have a psp pink, and theyre very good and fun as well as easy to use.
Mine unfortunately broke as my cat got jealous of it and pushed in off my bedside table with her nose!

I buy mine in an Indian run shop alongside Visanta in the Santiago underground shopping centre in Las Americas.

A psp black (the normal ones) are €165
The pink, gold, or whatever other colour is €175
The memory cards start at around €25-€30 (I got a 2GB for €50)
And the games start from around €40 depending on what you want.
Thats all available in the electrical/Indian run shops here, although the prices may vary!

You can get all kinds of accessories for it too.

I find mine great as I have wireless internet so I can use my psp to check my emails or whatever i need to do.

You can store a few hundred tracks and the movie quality is excellent.
Oh and if you get scrathes on the silver ring on the back (wear and tear) just use some brasso to rub it smooth again!

Hope it helps!

I wouldn't recommend for a 50 year old!

My husband got a PSP through a trade promotion. After about two weeks, he had managed to put his name on it. Needless to say, we sold it! Got £50 for it which I know wasn't much, but it went to a great wee boy who was delighted with it.
