I got some cash for Christmas and was thinking of picking up a PSP this week. I was particularly interested in Armored Core: Formula Front. Anyone have this or could recommend something else worth picking up? Obviously replay value is important with the portable.
Hope everyone is having a good one.

armored core formula front is not what you think it is, it is not an action game. you set configurations for your mech and then watch its' "AI" fight enemy "AI". it sucks.
psp has emulation though, which a lot o fpeople say suffices for its lack of games... i dunno. i like my DS

This sound interesting?
I think so.
There are actually quite a few sequencers and musicmaking things comming out for the psp. Almost makes it worthwhile to pick up ;)

Metal Gear Acid is worth a look too.

yeah I totally see where you're coming from, I think I was more impressed by the interface and graphics than the gameplay. It was my first experience of a touch-screen gameboy (I never used the SP) and I was pretty blown away

Got a PSP for christmas and the best game to get is Wipeout Pure!
Read a review of metal gear acid first because it is probably not what you think.
try and have a go on GTA first because apparently it is quite superficial and has no real plot or hidden bits.
I first played ridge racer on a PSP at the V festival as part of a promo thing and that was extremely good too.
So inconcusion: WIPEOUT PURE! Also has decent sound track, inc. AFX and LFO and tons of downloads on yourpsp.com like extra music and race tracks, ships etc :D

Thats a drum machine modeled after the elektron machine drum. More than just a drum sequencer, if I am not mistaken. It has a lot of the same features.

Yeah, Wipeout Pure most likely will be my next purchase. That or Lumines. For some reason though, I just want to buy massive amounts of anime for the PSP.
I bought AC:FF out of obligation to my robot brethren. Little on the action, high on the visuals. I also got the Akira anime, which looks amazing on that screen.
On another note, the fucking battery // lid was a bitch to get in. Be careful.

well i guess I'm more dextrous than you because I had no problem with covers and things. Attaching the eye piece on my radio controlled dalek.... now that was fiddly!
Annoying thing is when you register at yourpsp.com (do it you get a goody bag with UMD holder (i think - haven't got it yet)) you have to take out the battery to read the S/N.
Wipeout has downloads on yourpsp.com for music, tracks, etc and I beleive as the PSP becomes less new, more and more games will have downloadable new content.
Did you get the 1Gig memory stick? If not then get one ASAP. 32mb is pants. I've got a ton of mp3s on it now as well as some vids and of course games.
I need to finda wifi hotspot somewhere to check out the internet browser too. get the V2.6 software from yourpsp.com and it has an RSS reader and other things too.
I probably sound like an advert for sony, but the psp is by far the best portable games machine ever. only minor problems are can't listen to mp3s and look at photos at the same time (hopefully new software will fix this) and the IR port has no software for it yet, I want to be able to control TVs vidoes, etc from PSP :)
