PSP Go a Rip Off

[JohnnyMcKinney]

In my opinion I already thought it was a rip off. No UMD drive I mean wtf? I understand they want something strictly for downloadable content, but what about those people who have hard copies of the game? Now they would have to buy the games they have come to love... AGAIN. Anyway, as said Michael Pachter, it turns out the rip off may actually be one considering Sony is charging more for their PSP Go than the PSP 3000 even though making UMD drives is more EXPENSIVE than putting 16 GB of flash memory in the system.

The US$ 169 PSP-3000 is a profitable device. They make money, so it costs less than that. The disc assembly for a UMD costs more than 16 gigs of flash does. So this new device doesn't cost them as much to make as the PSP-3000 and they jack the price up US$ 80... They're ripping off the consumer… They're making a lot more money on the PSP Go than they’re making on the PSP-3000.

O that is cool. Probably will be done through the new Media manager, which will probably be hacked so that game backups could be ran through as a legit UMD and therefor putting your backups on the PSP Go. Lol.

he's talking about the bundles. And I like the PSP Go, the umd drive was a pain in my ass, now it's nicer to have my games more like cfw, on the device itself and have many games. Besides, now developers don't have to have a 1.8GB size constraint, so games will be much better!

I just looked at the PSP.go its kind of cool looking i somewhat like the slide up screen idea but I would definately prefer the original over the go.
