Game Console Center

Author: Mark Gittelman

A new PSP system is not complete without one very important item. No, it is not the battery though that is a necessity. The item in question is one that makes the Playstation Portable system worth having and playing. What could this mystery item be? It is the Playstation game that brings the PSP to life. Without the games, the PSP is nothing more than a very expensive paperweight. Sure you can play a movie, but isn’t the entire purpose of having a hand held game console so that you can play video games?

If you had the choice between a 16-bit game system and a 32-bit game system, you most likely would choose the latter. Sony knew this when they developed their gaming system but they did not stop there. When the Sony PSP Playstation was debuted, they made sure to include a variety of games from different genres to help entice Nintendo gamers into using their new gaming system. Some of these games were Twisted Metal, Philosoma and Ridge Racer.

Two of the biggest drawbacks of having a hand held gaming systemis the lack of games or the quality of the games. Well rest your fears, because the PSP system has both an incredibly advanced playing system (operating with two 32-bit CPUs) and a gaming library that makes other consoles hide in shame. The portable Playstation game library boasts over four hundred titles. That is impressive by anyone’s standard. Imagine all of the power and graphics of a traditional console wrapped into the handy new playstation portable square of gaming bliss.

Thanks to game designers wishing to cash in on a global market, you as the customer and game buyer can benefit as well. Think about those great titles on other gaming systems such as Halo, or Medal of Honor. Game designers are licensing and producing more of their games for multi-systems rather than putting all of their eggs into one company. Yes, there are still specific games associated with certain gaming systems, but eventually there will be more games transitioning over and they will be offered as a Playstation portable game.

Games are what drive the Playstation and the PSP system. The Playstation game showcases the ability of Sony’s designers with the smooth graphics and storyline. More games are developed daily and with the debut of the PS3 and PSP Slim and Lite, the gaming graphics have improved and memory has been increased. Just as in the computer industry, advanced technology is continuously developed and perfected. It is only a matter of time before the games blend reality with gaming play.
