Please don't call me concietid because I'm not. I have not decided what to ask for for Christmas and its between the Sony PSP (http://www.us.playstation.com/psp.aspx) and the Sony T5/T7 Digital Camera (don't know which) (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductCompare.asp?CompareItemList=N82E16830150066 ,N82E16830150062&SubCategory=12)

If you think I'm just being a whiny brat who should be happy with whatever I get, that is fine, but you don't need to say it to me. Thank you for your help and consideration.

My daughter did extra chores for 3 months...and I told her if she came up with half of the money...I would cover the other half...for a PSP...

She got it last week...and let me tell you.
That thing is a helluva lot smarter than me.
It is awesome...and probably would be even more awesome
if I knew how to work it.

We have come a long way from Atari and Commodore 64...

It was a "ripoff" because it was a big bundle...teh system alone was considerably cheaper, but if you have no games to play with it...you're kind of screwed...I did see one at Wal-Mart last week just in teh demo case running some WWII game...it was fantastic...

yea right.... xbox 360 ain't even expensive, I am going to get one soon and only going to get Halo 3 with xbox live because its so fun!

By the way, I hate Sony PSP and I have seen it at school that people have it, its too crappy small but the only thing I like is the small cd but with small T.V. with no internet? I don't think so.... I rather get Digital Camera because you can use and make movies with it on the computer or internet.

If you're in a HotSpot, the PSP does have WiFi and with the new software upgrade you can somehow watch tv on it too.

Its not expensive for that system because its worth but I am not talking hey maybe internet cost 300 dollars a month is not what i am talking about. Xbox 360 for 300 dollars ain't expensive but maybe for yall is.

That other was a bundle, lots of extra stuff included like games and crap. 300-400 isnt that bad, but I would say to wait on the PS3. It looks better than anything out there.

The $400 360 bundle actually includes a 20gb harddrive, a wireless controller (as opposed to a corded one), a different front faceplate, a headset, additional HD moniter hookups, and a remote. All for $100 more. The HD alone is $100. No additional games. Worth the price for a Next-Gen system, but is inferior to a PS3, not doubts. All Microsoft has is the benefit of the release before Sony, and dropping 360 prices when PS3 ships.

PSP.. small and crappy? Sounds like jealousy of not having one. They're amazing. They're incredibly high-powered and have alot of fun features not found in other handhelds. Including.. Microsoft!

Yes I think it is alittle bit and plus someone will steal if you bring it to school if someone is not pay any attention but I would remember. I just don't like it, and I will wait maybe 5 years for a very good one but I feel like I am getting more mature with these stuff so I won't be playing video games but thats not a big deal anyway.

I've been reading up on Xbox 360 and I may just have to invest. Wireless internet? Wireless controllers? WHAT?

My wife will kill me, but hey...a boy has to have his toys. I can stare at my 1969 National Champs gameball (and 2005 National Champs Gameball :D ) while I play NCAA or something.

Yep fully compatible. I don't own any games, so I'd have to buy new ones. I just don't like cords strething anywhere so wireless internet and wireless controllers will be nice.

Halo 2 any good? Only seen it played.
