SONY PSP GO

Previous incarnations of handheld Sony consoles relied on small discs (called UMDs) for content, but while this was fine for the games, the movies were a resounding flop. As a result the PSP Go relies entirely on downloaded content – you’ll be buying your games and movies online from now on. For content Sony has partnered with www.emusic.com, which offers reasonably priced games and films. The overall effect here is of a gaming device that you treat like your iPod, by downloading games you play on the Go. See what they did there?
The controls will make you feel instantly at home – the familiar cross, square, circle and triangle buttons make sure of that. They are placed on a slide-out panel that slots neatly back into the main housing, so the console is even smaller when not in use.
For your money you get 16GB of flash memory, with memory slots for that little bit extra, and the device is both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capable.
When is small too small? Perhaps when your console relies on excellent graphics. Perversely, despite having the biggest single screen on test, the PSP Go was the only one that felt slightly undersized, because the graphics are often the most important part of Sony games. Regular users will be used to the extra half an inch formerly offered by the screen on the PSP 3000 (which, by the way, is still on sale).
