Of course PCMag is somewhat gaming mainstream since they are a Ziff Davis company, but I digress.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cOriginally conceived as the PlayStation Portable (and now simply called the PSP), the slick, gorgeous device succeeds spectacularly as a portable gaming console. If you view its music- and video-playback capabilities as bonus features, you\u2019ll be thrilled; if you were hoping it would be best-in-class at all its endeavors, you\u2019ll be slightly disappointed.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Frankly I find it a little disconcerting that I am not in Sony\u2019s targeted demographic age group for the PSP (15-25 year old males according to the review).  How is a 15 year old going to come up with $250 for this puppy?  It sucks being old.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As expected, the PSP reviews are stating to roll in at various gaming and non-gaming sites.
