Considering the psp

[cirodot]

I'm thinking about buying a psp after x-mas, and I plan on using it just to play games. What's a good size memory stick to go with?

If you are using it for just game saves then you don't need more than 32mb. However, I'd recommend you get a 1gb stick for if/when you decide you want to put on music/movies/etc. Plus there will be the occasional demo you might want to download so I would recommend a 1gb+.

Thanks for the reply, I just wasn't sure how much memory game saves could actually take up. I'd probably get a bigger card if sony ever allows ps1 downloads straight to the psp, or I can find someone with ps3 that will let me download the games.

Sony will be allowing PS1 downloads straight to PSP eventually, it's just a matter of when.

Game saves are comparable to the Playstation 2 (plus you can back them up to a computer easily).

But yeah, you might want a bigger one just for purchasing games for it, and downloading demos.

Get a one gb stick, you can sometime find them for $20-30 at retail store. I got a 2 gb stick at target for $40 at target about two weeks ago.

You can easily find a 2 GB stick these days for under $50. That's what I got for my PSP.

Go with a 1gb. You can find them for around 20 bucks now. A far cry from $150 that they charged at launch day.

when ya go to get the psp, grab the entertainment pack.

comes with a gig stick/atv game/skate movie...not bad for about $50 more than a core
