NYKO Screen Armor is Garbage!!

It would be ok if it stayed attached to the PSP, but you have to remove it and find a place to put it whenever you take it off. I thought, and the guy at EB told me it would swivel up and stay on whenever you wanted to play a game and then when you were done you could just put it back down and go. It does serve the purpose of protecting the screen but it could have been so much better.

If you're talking about what I think you are, then it's your own damn fault. "I thought it would swivel up" It's a piece of hard plastic, you though it would just turn into a fruit roll-up?

This is the one I am talking about it attaches to the top of the PSP and has a hinge part back there so why wouldnt I think it would just lift up and stay attached(i.e. Gameboy Advance Light/Screen Protector).

the Pelican case is nice for a soft case but I would have prefered a hard one. Martin fields screen protector is awesome, cant even tell it's there.

I got a screen protector in a 14.99 pack planning on switching later. It came with a thing to put the film over the screen. The thing it came with scratched up the film like a mother er. Those assholes. .

I picked this one up at Target last night for $9.99 and it works great, plus it came with 4 of those UMD game cases as a bonus.

the pelican one flips up like what you're thinking, and suprisingly doesn't get in the way of the shoulder buttons either, screws in like it was first party all nice and neat, but it gets just as smudgy as the system since it's the same finish.

i bought that rubber skin thing, came with a screen guard which worked well except i took it off to make sure the stuck pixels i was seeing were really pixels and not something on the screen guard. the rubbery thing is cool but i took it back off because 1) i can't slide it back into the case with it on and 2) i just got used to the fact that it gets fingerprinty

I got an intec screen protector for my SP and it had scratches all over it. then it got dust under it so I took it off, only it left a nasty sticky residue that still hasn't come completley off. It think that these screen protectors that stick to the screen do the opposite of what they are supposed to do.

Speaking of garbage, I saw a Gameboy Duck at walmart. Its for the old GBA and it is an ugly yellow plastic thing that clips onto your gba to make it water proof, it covers the entire system, except the screen.

Rock out with the Pelican Face Armor. I just bought some screen protectors (had to, I mean, 'Hori'. Says it all). Also grabbed intec's Aluminum Carry case (not the FBI Special Edition Virus-Transport Case, just the handheld one). The case is still bigger than I would like, providing a lot of room..for...well...nothing. You can't really put anything else in it, aside from the system, wrist strap/headphones (without remote), and one extra game outside the system.

At least I finally understand the damn value of that POS wriststrap.

Overall, this does a great job at what its suppose to do. If you're looking for a complete protection of your PSP, look else where as this only protects your PSP screen.
