This PSP-3000 comes in a sleek black color scheme and also includes an improved anti-reflective screen that offers higher contrast and clearer visibility in well-lit places and can even be used outdoors.

A Full Entertainment System in Your Hands
The PSP was designed to handle all varieties of applications and entertainment -- music, video, communication, wireless networking, and, of course, gaming. Users will enjoy top-notch 3D games with high-quality, full-motion video, and high-fidelity audio. The 4.3-inch wide screen display is bright and beautiful, and works well under many different lighting conditions. If you prefer, you can also connect your PSP to your TV. The PSP utilizes the Universal Media Disc (UMD) for a storage medium, each of which holds 1.8 GB of data.

Hundred of Games to Choose From
The PSP gaming library is hundreds of titles strong and covers a wide variety of genres. Whether you are seeking the hard hits of football or the strategy of a puzzle game, there's sure to be many games for you. The PSP is capable of graphics quality that is comparable to the PlayStation 2, but in a pocket-sized package that you can take wherever you go.

Watch Movies and Videos On The Go
When you just want to sit back and enjoy a movie on a long plane trip, the PSP has you covered. The PSP offers two options to do this: you can either purchase full-length movies and TV shows on UMD, or you can download videos onto your computer and transfer them on a Memory Stick Duo for playing on your PSP. Included in the package is the movie National Treasure 2 on UMD.

You can also watch recorded television content downloaded to a Memory Stick Duo with the TiVo-To-Go service. (Please note that this requires $24.95 fee, you must have a TiVo Series2 connected to your home network.)

Listen to Your Music Collection Anywhere
With the ability to play MP3, WAV, WMA, ATRAC3+, and MP4 files, you can easily use your PSP as an audio player. Simply place your music on a Memory Stick Duo, and you can navigate your collection using the PSP's XMB (XrossMediaBar) to select your song to play.

UMD discs can hold 1.8 GB for epic games and full-length movies. View larger.

Show and Share Photos With Your Friends
With the PSP, you can show a slideshow of your photo collection with your friends by simply placing them on a Memory Stick Duo and accessing them via PSP's XMB. Additionally, you can beam photos wirelessly to friends who also have a PSP.

Download content from the PlayStation Store onto the PSP. View larger.

Built-in WiFi allows for Internet Browsing and Online Gaming
With built-in WiFi, you can access the Internet from any accessible hotspot. Once connected, you can surf the Web and download exclusive demos and content for your PSP from the PlayStation Store.

The WiFi also allows you to battle other gamers, both over the Internet and in your local vicinity.

Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters Game Included
With this Limited Edition set, you'll get to play Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters right out of the box. A combination of a platformer and shooter, Size Matters delivers the over-the-top humor and fun that the series has come to be known for.

As is Ratchet and Clank's hallmark, the game features large cache of weapons, each of which can be upgraded to become larger and stronger. It's the sheer wackiness of the weapons that makes the game so much fun: among the many weapons at your disposal, you'll have the option of wielding a shotgun, a pistol that shoots killer bees, and a gun that shoots out robots.

The game makes full use of the PSP hardware and incorporates multiple lighting and particle effects without any slowdown in game play.

With this Limited Edition Entertainment Pack, you won't be lacking in entertainment options when you're on the run. In fact, you might actually start looking forward to your long commute.

What's in the Box:
PSP-3000, power cord, power adapter, battery pack, Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters UMD game, National Treasure 2 UMD movie, 1GB Memory Stick Duo, PlayStation Network game download voucher.

The Limited Edition Entertainment Pack includes everything seen here.

Customer Reviews

good unit, but lots to improve (2009-06-16)
things you might want to know before purchasing
1, wobbly UMD and battery door
2, the voucher does NOT work because it expired on March, 2009
3, speakers are not loud enough
4, there is no USB in the package, so you need to buy one separately, but I had a ps3, so I can use my ps3 USB
but in general, its a good unit

I'm in love. (2009-06-10)
I never owned a PSP before today and I must say that I am very happy with my purchase.

Pros: Looks, Function and Games.

Cons: Wobbly UMD and Battery door. Slight defect with screen I can live with I guess. Noticeable scan lines. Speakers aren't very loud and it's a finger print magnet.

Sure, I listed more cons then pros... But they aren't that big of a deal. Just something you should know about ahead of time.

Overall this bundle is great. It's only $9 more then the core pack. You get 2 free games, movie and 1 GB memory stick. You can't go wrong.

PSP first timer (2009-05-27)
Just bought psp for myself. So far, I love it. Yes you can see scan lines if you view it realy close to your face but otherwise it is not a problem. Currently playing Ratchet and Clank and graphics look realy good. Overall 9/10. Good buy for anyone how like play station. Better porduct than I anticipated.

Best Portable Handheld out on the market!!! Forget DSi.... (2009-05-20)
I have owned the DS light, my daughters have DS and DSi. I got bored with the DS last year. I just found the games were uninteresting and just decided to sell it one day and stick to the big consoles like Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii.
This year I had no idea what I wanted for my birthday. I already have more games then I can play in my lifetime....so I was not thinking of another handheld. I decided to try the PSP anyway, since it gave me something to do while my wife plays with her IPhone (two old Techno-freaks).
I am so glad I gave the PSP a try ...it is like carrying a PS2 everywhere you go, with the addition of Internet and Skype. I got so much of a kick out of it, that my daughter decided to buy one. Now, my daughter is a gamer...she grew up with the stuff, while I was a teen when "Pong" came out, so she would be a real test..after her first week , I asked her which she preferred better, her DSi (She loves Mario, Zelda and Harvest Moon type stuff) or the PSP. She said PSP hands down without hesitation!
She was very impressed with the quality and the technology. She also (Like Me) found the games refreshing..not boring.

Conclusion:
IF you want a system for the pre-teen crowd..then stick with a DSi. IF you want a system to keep you entertained to your adult years (and then some ;-) ) your choice has got to be a PSP!!

Unit Completely Dead (2009-04-15)
Extremely disappointed, purchased this for Christmas. After only a couple months, the unit went dead. Will not turn on, does not show any light while attempting to charge, etc.
Am in the process of trying to get service for unit. Right now, I am out the money and unit is useless to me. Will post update later.
