Buying A PSP In 2024…

- The PlayStation Portable has a place in all of our hearts, but is it worth buying in 2024? With PlayStation porting a ton of their games to PS4 and 5, the answer is a touch more dicey than you may expect!

I was racking my brain for the best part of a decade trying to remember a certain psp game and this dude busted out untold legends and fried me with nostalgia
Amazing game!
Spent countless hours playing untold legends 1 and 2 with a friend over Ad hoc good times
I have a hacked PS Vita with over 100 GB of PSP games on it. One of the best things I own.
Nobody is using the PlayStation store. You can't even download games through it anymore. Everybody who has a PSP hacked it and is downloading ISOs.
This ^
I'm about to buy a used psp because I can't find a used ps vita in a reliable site😭
@@Zanoladablook on face book market. You can haggle with parents selling their kids old games lol I got a vita for like 60 bucks through it
@@Zanoladabebay bro! especially the japanese imports, taken care of very well.
@@ZanoladabI got my PS Vita on EBay they are great prices I suggest the slim because PS Vita Slim charges with any micro USB cable
The psp was head of its time. Takes me back to when to golden years of my childhood
I wish I still had my PSP. So many memories playing on it especially on long car rides😩midnight club on the psp just hit and god of war too
God or war games were top tier. Just as good as the other entries.
Get a new one!
Really don’t think someone buying a psp in 2024 is too worried about accessing the PlayStation store, you know what I mean?
😂
I mean psp are easily hackable
cdromance baby😂
@@phoenixdown1947 shhhh!!! fr tho
If you are thinking of buying a PSP and you came to this video, don't hesitate any longer and go buy it now! I can guarantee that you will not regret it!
Dude, Ridge Racer is one of the best racing games EVER! Get 2 ASAP!
Psp was god tier when it released. Hope they make a new one.
I am actually interested in getting a psp one day. Maybe this video will help with that. Thanks
A modded PSP is definitely worth it. But playing them directly from the UMDs? Yuckkkk
My first experience with online multiplayer was actually on the PSP. Medal of Honor Heros supported 32 players in a single game & was truly legendary back in 2006 when I got my psp. I miss those handheld days.
Important side note: Both the PSP and Ps Vita can be jailbroken pretty easily.
There are many tutorials online. Both systems also have proprietary (non-standard) memory cards.
The best way to enjoy these systems now-a-days, is to jailbreak them, and buy a memory card adapter specific to that console and you're good to go!
I do think the PS-Vita is more worth it if you can find it the right price. By jailbreaking it, you have access to the full PS-Vita library which includes some ports of PS2 and PS3 games. You also have full access to all PSP and PS1 games. And the PS-Vita Homebrew scene just keeps growing!! More and more people are making new games for the Vita or porting games from other systems like Bully or Simpsons Hit and Run to name a few.
I just started collecting for the PSP, mainly so I could play Megaman powered up again but there are so many games worth getting.
Dissidea FF, the FF 1, 2 and 4 remakes as well as tactics.
There are anime games galore and since the PSP isn’t region locked you can play those as well, notably the bleach games on PSP, there are so many that we didn’t get.
Phantasy star portable 1 and 2, the ys games, star ocean 1 and 2, legend of heroes 1 2 and 3, tales of eternia, tales of the world radiant mythology, lunar series, gurumin a monstrous adventure, the prinny and disgaea series and black rock shooter are some of the best games you can get on the psp. ❤❤❤ Especially black rock shooter. I haven't seen any other game with the unique combat system. It has. I want more RPGs with that style of combat.
Street fighter alpha 3 is one of my favourite psp games of all time
I was working in Manhattan when this came out, and the PSP was INCREDIBLE for riding on the subways and busses across the city. Made the commute so much more enjoyable.
Emulators worked really well, too!
Now I want a PSP so bad I regret getting rid of my white one.
this is a really bad recommendatiion video, you left out one big part about the console - the modding scene. lets not lie, we all use roms from the seven seas because UMD games are a bit hard to come by in a lot of countries. So not recommending the pspgo because of psn access is just silly. the only model i wouldn't suggest people get is the 1000 cause of the crappy screen, however if you are tech savy and can solder stuff, you can get an IPS screen for it. Also playing UMD games is just stupid at this point, the load times are horrendous on these things, you're actually missing out by not modding your psp and playing games through the sd card.
Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories are so underrated. They introduced the business mechanics into the game and it just made A LOT of sense in GTA. Businesses is what I love about GTA Online.
Bought one back in the day solely for Valkyria Chronicles 2
I had god of war special edition red PSP 2000 that I played the heck out of but it got stolen sadly. After that I just got the Vita that I still use and I’ve modded it with many PSP games on it which according to me is the best way to play them now
Death jr, dead head fred, Vahala knights 2, and star ocean games.
The PSP was a part of me and my brothers childhood growing up. So many great titles on the glorious little system. 🔥 Untold Legends, Syphon Filter, Resistance, God of war, Socom, Ghost Rider, Monster Hunter, Tekken, Dragon Ball etc
*Patapon 1+2, Grand Knights History, Indiana Jones staff of kings, Hot shots golf open tee, silent hill origins, X men origins wolverine, Mhp3rd...*
Dungeon seige.. Agony of... The throne?
That's a lot like dungeon seige
I remember playing Liberty City Stories multiplayer all night with my brother when I was in fourth grade! Happy to see it in the video!
Here's some PSP games I enjoy (some are imports). Most will probably never get a digital re-release (not that I buy digital anyway). "SEGA Genesis Collection" "N+" "Space Invaders Pocket" "Puzzle World" "Taito Legends Power Up" "I.Q. Mania" "Atari Classics Evolved" "Namco Museum Battle Collection". Plus the movies "T2" "RE Apocalypse" "RE Extinction" all presented in the correct 1.85:1 ratio. The 2.40:1 ratio of the DVD/Blu-ray cuts information off the top/bottom of the screen & adds basically nothing to the sides.
Incomplete video. You forgot the psp street
Only released in Europe.
@@MadnessMan13 And no one in Europe watch his videos ?
I just started Dungeon Siege on PSP and it’s a really fun game
just watched casino royale on umd last night
I loved playing midnight club, burnout, and pursuit force on my psp. Good times.
Still need a psp, definitely gonna pick one up some day..
Steam deck then vimms lair sorted
Awesome video, been waiting for a Matty PSP video. Really like how you included both positive and negative, and explained the negative in detail.
Why wasting your money?
I ended up going with the PSP GO. While it isn't the ideal way if you want to collect for PSP. I still like the form factor, how small at is and just able to slide in your pocket whenever I travel.
Mines is Modded so I have it full of the ganes I enjoy playing. Also had a great deal for the PSP GO Cradle. I sometimes just Dock it and play on the TV. Its a really cool little Handheld
Freaky ass Header on the back lmao 5:50
Completely disagree regarding the 1000. Yes the screen isnt quite as good, but the build quality and form factor are sooo much better. Particularly if im laying down, the 3000 keeps falling out of my hands and giving me carpeltunnel. Im sure its fine for button mashy fighting games but for something like monster hunter, the form factor of the 1000 goes a long way. They do make grips for the 3000 that improve things though. But also the 1000 just feels the most premium to me.
Fun fact, the PSP is the only console I ever had to throw out because it got bricked. Stopped charging, just stopped functioning
Heck of a console though
Something to keep in mind with the PSP: unless you know how to mess with the security on your router, you won’t be able to access the internet since the system doesn’t recognize WPA2 security. I have the 2000, not sure if the newer versions do.
ppl are still buying PSP cartridges? or are most ppl juat want to know beat games to play on a handheld emulator?
I like the 1000 the most I hated how the buttons feel on the 2000, 3000 and go. To anyone who is reading this the games I recommend the most are
Gungnir
Patapon 3
Dissidia 012
Metal Gear Solid Peace walker
Final fantasy type 0
Grand Knights History
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd
Toukiden Kiwami
Phtasy Star 2 Infinity
Pangya Fantasy Golf
Kingdom Hearts Birth by sleep final mix
Disgaea
DJ Max Portable Black Square.
One game I loved on PSP was Death Jr. Reviewed about average but was really fun. Like a cross between Psyconauts and Ratchet and Clank. And of course Tony Hawk Underground 2 Remix. Don't even know how many times I replayed that story.
Wrestling games on psp...DO PLAY: Any of the wwe SVR games, but especially 2006.
DONT PLAY: TNA Impact(it's just so inferior to the console versions
Also if you like pure mid 2000s comedy, play infected
Psp -the BEST handheld EVER ~ MADE ,that's a FACT , hand's down 👇 up ,or in your a.s that doesn't make any difference psp the KING 👑
Crazy Taxi fare wars, Chile con Carnage, Snk arcade classics, Metal Gear Acid, Burn out Dominator, Guitaroo Man lives to just name a few. All the WWE SvR games were excellent too.
I started buying PSP games and movies this year.
it's really funny picking some of them up because at the gamestore the clerk just looks at me going
"Christmas with the Kranks, huh?"
Nobody watch this video... I'm trying to collect for the psp and I don't need y'all making the market value go up 🤣
Love my PSP! As a physical game collector the PSP is still the only way to get a lot of these games. Final Fantasy tactics war of the Lions is still the best version and though I think you can get it on PC and there's rumblings of a remake, I still recommend it. That and Y's Seven. Worth mentioning that Valkyrie Profile Lenneth is an updated version of the PS1 game and much much cheaper if you want that physical version and miss the whir of a UMD drive under your fingers.
I disagree on FFIV. While FFIV did get the Pixel Remaster release, the PSP version in the only one that contains he two sequels: FFIV Interlude (it only exists in the PSP version) and FFIV the After Years (this sequel is on Steam as well, but the version on Steam is on the FFIV 3D remake style, not the classic 2D style). The PSP version is still the best release for FFIV. The Pixel Remaster does not nclude the sequels and one of them only exists on PSP.-
Duodecim has a ridiculous amount of content and an overworld map so it’s a lot of fun. It was my inspiration along with crisis core for getting psp
Matty you should consider trying Chinatown Wars for Retro Rebound. I think you’d like it. The PSP version on Vita would probably be the definitive way to play btw.
Unless you're getting a psp go I'd say its not worth it since the go has the best screen out of all the PSPs since its as bright as the 3,000, sharper than all of them due to the higher pixel density, doesn't have the ghosting of the earlier models and the scan lines of the 3,000
Why would someone want to play UMDs nowadays? I'm all for physical media but jesus were UMDs a bad move in retrospect
You're right about that Jeanne D'Arc cover art. That's what made me buy that game when I saw it on the shelf almost 20 years ago and I wasn't even a big RPG fan. Seeing Jeanne staring up at the heavens in her battle armor was intriguing. Took it home and played it and immediately became addicted to it. One of my all time favorite PSP games.
Don't quite know if this is an unorthodox thing to keep in mind, but one benefit of the PSP 1000 is that it's the only model you know for sure you can flash cfw onto, meaning you don't have to set it up every time you boot the system. You can completely bypass the poor disc drive by ripping your umds directly to your memory card. It's so nice.
My sister had a psp her kids weren't using forever so I just said screw it and got it off thier hands. It was A Go and this was last year. The ONLY THING on this thing was Resident Evil. I was so disappointed that would be the only thing I could play.
Man,, what timing. I've been failing at my PSP repairs the past month. Hopefully this upload is a good sign for me. :(
Where's Patapon games?!! Patapon is the flagship of the PSP, if not it's only a DS ripoff collection, that goes for Burnout as well.
Jokes aside, more recommendations: Field Commander, Split/Second, Silent Hill Origins, the two Star Ocean in PSP, the two Valhalla Knights games (the 3rd one is on Vita) and the two Syphon Filter games.
The only thing about the 1000 is it’s the only one they have a ips screen upgrade for it but yea iv got a 2000 and a 3000 that i bought this year lol one modded with games and i got for a steal
Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Impact is a must-play, other than that I’ll recommend LocoRoco and Patapon.
How did you become a falcons fan? I’ve seen you in rangers (nhl) gear and I think Mets gear. Just curious
The PSP is the JRPG fan's wet dream. I basically owe this console for turning me into a Square Enix and Atlus megastan with the amount of nights I'd spent sneaking in some playtime on P3P and FFIV Complete as a kid
Also timing this with the Lunar announcement was clever lol
Psp is definitely a great handheld, same with the vita. After owning both and using em extensively, gotta say the psp just feels so good to use for psp and psx. If the battery life was on par with the vita, I'd use it more than the vita for sure. But definitely , two handhelds im glad to have.
I also highly suggest Mega Man Powered Up which also comes in a dual pack pack with Maverick Hunter
Someone need to tell this guy about Anbernic, Retroid Pocket, Powkiddie, Miyoo, etc.
I just bought the stuff to soft mod my white psp go. Get out of my walls.
I bought the same model and a bunch of the games I had when I was 13! Such an incredible little system. The feelings I have tied to this thing are so different from any other console. Still so impressive for the time it comes from.
the PSP was and still is a great system. there is no freaking way i am trusting Sony to bring these games back to PS4/PS5 tho. the emulator they use isn't even that good it even lacks simple upscaling that you get from PPSSPP on PC. i rather buy an actual PSP and hack it or get a Vita (and hack that too)
I'm not sure how you feel about racing games, but there are two Wipeouts on PSP. I only have Wipeout Pure for now and I love it; the soundtrack is amazing.
I would buy a PSvita because i don't like the UMD sounds and batterij usage so why use a psp xD then
I picked one up brand new like 2 years back. I love it. The last thing I played was symphony of the night using a save file online to unlock it in that collection thags on the system.
One game that always has me keep my Vita(before it broke) was and always will be Final Fantasy Dissidia Duodecim.
was it official PSP game or homebrew mod ????
@@Gloryboyquan official. There's a cool Kingdom Hearts mod you can download on the psp emulator.
@@Gloryboyquanyou can buy it on the vita store rn
Psp is great and uf you own one use it but if you dont go ahead and buy a vita, it can run psp games flawlessly and given the market currently it probably costs hust as much.
No love for Locoroco or Patapon??? Both had sequels and are great on PSP, PS Vita or the HD releases on PS4
wish you mentioned key of heaven (or kingdom of paradise in the us i believe) absolutely love this game so much and played it so many times. good story, great gameplay and me personally i love the music in it as well. cover art is fantastic as well and it was the main reason i even picked up the game as a kid when i saw it
Last year was prob the time to get into PSP. Now that you made this video, prices are def gonna skyrocket
Just mod it it’s really easy and you can play more games through emulation like gameboy advance runs perfect
I have to sayI really love the opening intros to your videos. It's like a lowkey shout out to Persona 4 Golden❤
Gitarooman Lives is my favourite PSP music game. I hope it comes to PS+++ one day!
The first Naruto ultimate ninja heroes game, is actually the most well balanced fighting i game my played
The psp is really only good to play PSp exclusives, otherwise, it's better to play them on console and don't mess with the ports they're better on p s p
I love the grinding from the UMD. Sounded like the future, man.
Peace walker is also already on the xbox store through 360 backcompat
The Patapon series is a must play PSP series. 1 and 2 have been ported to ps4 but honestly they are best experienced on the og hardware.
Final Fantasy Tactics War of the Lions is bar none the greatest strategy game ever. It is available on phones but who wants to play on their phone?
on hacked ps vita you can play psp game at the full resolution of the vita screen, game look really awesome like that., and you have the psp menu so it don't feel like cheap experience in a souless menu
You guys buy games?
Thank you for including Freedom Unite in this video. A lot of people started in rise and world and they didn't know what the series is all about before.
I just got a psp and modded it. I can say it was worth it if your doing rhat if you’re deciding between that or the vita, I’d go with the vita
A game I recommend is Death Jr. played the heck out of it when I was younger.
Funny enough I have a story of getting an import from best buy as well back in the day it was a Naruto game on the ds
you forgot the psp street! also i prefer the psp 1000 because its the only psp that can get an IPS screen installed
21:01 so are you saying you will catch up to current story on FF14 before you sart the poxel remaster of 4 or only finish a realm reborn? Finished to current will take hundreds of hours
I have the collectors edition of Persona and persona 3 portable, together they cost me 300 lmaoo
Gangs of london,the warriors,the godfather mob wars,Gun just to name a few :)
Highly recommend "Gladiator Begins", it's a hidden gem
Get a Vita. It's PSP, plus a PS Vita, and PS4 remote play device.
you forgot about Fat Princess: Fistful of Cake.
Army of Two, Crisis Core and Phantasy Star games were a few of my favorites on PSP.
When it comes to which is the best to own if you care about homebrew its the PSP Go hands down
My psp 1001 is not bad at all. I have zero problems with it.
