Hi, Where is the cheapest place to get a PSP does anyone know? Are there compatibility issues with US/PAL/JAP machines? Just the basic package is required I suppose. Just as a side note, is pro evo out yet on it? Any feedback appreciated, thanks:)

Not sure about the cheapest place, but in realtion to compatibility - The PSP Games are region free, but the Movies are region locked the same as a DVD - Europe and Japan region 2, USA Region 1 etc. so if you do want to watch movies on UMD Disc you'll need a region 2 PSP, however, if it's only for games any PSP will do it for you !

I got a PSP, Accessory kit, Lumines, Midnight Club and Toca for €339. I bought it in PC World, and i took the 3yrs accidental cover on it - it was an extra €65 and covers any kind of accidental or manufacturing defects for 3 yrs.

Can buy the PSP there for €254.99 on its own.
