Sony Gets Smart
As much as it pains me to admit it, sony finally did something smart with the PSP. They are making a new bundle for $299. It will come with all of the stuff from the previous bundle (minus Spiderman 2) but will add two excellent items. First is a hands-free stand for the PSP for movies. Kind of odd, considering you'd need a flat surface (you'd have to be somewhere you likely have a DVD in other words), but the other is the real kicker. A 1gb memory stick. That's right, the jokingly small 32 is out, and they're now giving you a real deal on it.

I wouldn't have exactly described the 32MB as 'jokingly small', it's easily big enough for your save games, even if you are an absolute PSP fanboy and own almost every game out there.
Yeah, this always happens though to me. I buy a PSP, a few weeks later, a new deal is announced (it's £214.99 here UK gamers). I buy a Gamecube basically for Resident Evil 4, the same day as I buy it (literally) it's announced for the PS2. Damn.

This sucks. For me anyway... I'm pretty much the same as Euan, it feels like we've been cheated. Sony shouldn't be worried about the deals etc, they should be sorting out thier incredible shortage...

Wait, wait, wait, you LIKE this idea?
Sure, it's a somewhat smart move by Sony from a business standpoint, but from a consumer standpoint your getting screwed one way or another. It's a deal if you don't have one already, but it just further proves how ridiculous the PSP in terms of cost. $300 just so it's usable... If Sony wanted to make a move that would please customers (as well as to help disguise the PSP's expense, i.e. deception, a popular Sony tactic), they would have dropped the PSP to $200 with less stuff, and then people would spend $100 to get the 1GB card and everything. This tactic would be sneakier, but in the end a bit more consumer-friendly just because of the flexibility. The way I see it, your getting screwed one way or another. $300? That's more than a Revolution AND the new Super Smash Bros. Hmmm...multimedia portable with no games, or revolutionary console alongside an online sequel to the greatest multiplayer game ever made? Seems and easy choice to me...
