Christmas with the Kranks [UMD for PSP]

Slapstick humor gets a full-body workout in Christmas with the Kranks. Critics were unanimous in their derision, and John Grisham must have gnashed his teeth over what studio-boss-turned-director Joe Roth did to his bestselling novel Skipping Christmas, to which this broad-stroked comedy bears little or no resemblance. The title characters are played by Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis, who decide to skip Christmas because their daughter's in Peru with the Peace Corps. Thus begins a rabid program of enforced conformity when their neighbors (led by Dan Aykroyd) coerce the Kranks into changing their holiday attitude--a change that comes easily when the daughter announces she'll be home for Christmas after all. Imagine if a suburban lynch mob said "Have a Merry Christmas or we'll kill you," and you'll get some idea of what spending Christmas with the Kranks is really like. And if you laughed at the frozen cat, you're probably on Santa's "naughty" list. --Jeff Shannon
Customer Review: Really, more like 1.5 stars
This movie was just boring. The first time watching it, I was fast-forwarding through it just to get somewhere. I'm giving it alittle more than 1 star though, because there were a few funny moments. It's a shame, it seemed like it could have been really cute.
Customer Review: Fun Christmas Comedy
This is a great fun to watch Christmas comedy with a heatwarming ending. My family enjoys watching it 2 or 3 times every Christmas Season.

PSP Headset Kit for Skype

Add Skype to your PSP. You can talk to anyone else on Skype anywhere in the World for free. For calls to and from landline or mobile phones, you need to purchase Skype Credit. Enter a new world of PSP social connectivity with the Headset with Remote Control. Talk trash to fellow gamers, call a friend to meet you using Skype, or tell your brother about the new Internet Radio station you found.
Customer Review: Great Shipping and great Value
I Had Just recieved my package yesterday and the headset works great very comfortable and sound quality is great and it also works with online gaming and the remote is a nice little add on for my psp.
Customer Review: This is worth it.
I was curious when i first heard about skype for the psp, so i read into it and let me tell you it does exactly what it says. You get to call any cell phone or land line like a house phone with your psp. They have deals where you can pay as you go or get a subscription, you can get unlimited calls for just 2.95 anywhere in the us and Canada. But to receive calls you have to buy a number which with a subscription is 30 a year. So its around 5 or 6 bucks a month to have a cell phone that uses wireless internet. so anytime there is wireless internet you get reception. This headset is good and light and works very very well.

Aluminum Hard Case for Sony PSP

Introducing the Aluminum Hard Case for the long awaited Sony PSP. This form-fitting metal deluxe case is the perfect buy as it protects your PSP from any nicks and scratches.
Customer Review: dont listen to the others
Now i bought this case inspite what all the other reviews said and i was very happy that i did so. The edges are not so sharp that they will "chip or scratch" you psp. Yes it prolly could, thats if you were trying to damage it, otherwise dont worry. when i got this i put my psp into it and it fit like a glove. the linning doesnt really protect against shocks but it does keep you from scratching it. i was even able to fit a larger joystick in it. This is a great product if you want to actually carry your psp around with you. fits great in your pocket! The only problem i can think of is that its a lil akward to use while playing games. but it slips out like a charm when i want to play my psp. Dont listen to the other reviews this is deffinantly worth getting.
Customer Review: TRASH
This case is a piece of trash because it doesn't protect the whole psp,just some of it and when you close it,you have to be very careful or you're gonna chip some of your psp off.IF YOU WANT TO GET THIS,DO NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!GET THE LOGITECH PLAYGEAR POCKET HARD CASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thrillville: Off The Rails (PSP)

Thrillville: Off the Rails amps up the family-friendly mix of gameplay with some of the most outlandish roller-coaster concepts ever imagined, as well as new ways to talk to park guests and a new array of carnival games. 20 death-defying rides so outrageous inspire the same word from every park visitor who sees them: "WHOA!"

The in-depth conversations both advance the plot and suggest better ways to manage the park but is every guest to be trusted? Smarter guests, better dialogue and more focused two-way conversation make Thrillville's socialization aspects even more amusing than before Conversation more directly impacts the story than in the original Thrillville Play 34 minigames - 14 new, 20 returning from the original Thrillville with new levels such as Robo K.O., Sparkle Quest, Bandito Chinchilla and Tank Frenzy
Customer Review: Too hard/complicated for 8 year old
Bought this game for my 8 year old son. He responded to the advertisements and wanted this game but has found it too difficult. He does play the mini games that are within the larger game but has become frustrated by the primary aspects of the game - building and crashing roller coasters. Needs better documentation to ensure a postive experience for all ages

PSP Folio Case

Carry your PSP system as well as UMD Movies, Games, Music and accessories in a secure, compact case
Customer Review: Another WORTHLESS PSP case!
1. This thing is hard as a brick, you could probably kill someone with it if you hit them hard enough! 2. You can barely squeeze a coin in the spaces for holding the UMD's! Ain't no way I'm breaking a $50 disk trying to cram it in that small, hard coffin! 3. NOTHING fits as shown in this false picture! The place for the PSP is WAAAY too small! It'll break the PSP if you cram it in there! And the other pouches are useless - nothing that came with the PSP will fit in them! Worthless! Why can nobody make a frickin' case for this system?!
Customer Review: Perfect little overnight carrying case for your PSP stuff.
This case will not carry all of your PSP stuff if you have more than a few games/movies/peripherals. But its perfect for overnigt or buisness trips. With room for 6 discs, the PSP unit, some cords and a couple net pouches you should have room for enough PSP goodies to keep you happy for a day or two. Its small enough to fit easily into a backpack or duffle bag. The material surrounding the PSP nitch is stiff yet forgiving. It should help cushion against the inevitable drops and bangs. Over all this is just what I expected it to be and am very happy I bought it.

Lemony Snicket's a Series of Unfortunate Events [UMD for PSP]

After Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire's parents perish in a terrible fire, they are placed in the care of their uncle, Count Olaf (Jim Carrey), an evil fiend who is plotting to kill them and seize their fortune.
Customer Review: ITS AN OK MOVIE
I watched it once and now its collecting dust. Although it is a good movie, I could have waited for it to play on cable. I would have been just a happy.
Customer Review: ***** ... But WHERE is the SOUNDTRACK???
I saw the film before starting to read the books, yes, and i am a beleiver in CHANGING what needs to be changed to make books into films. Loved this entire film. BUT - and this is a big but - where on earth can one get the scoresoundtrack??? The music is easily (for me) THE finest part of the entire production! I have searched for a complete or even partial soundtrack release - to no avail! I have found the music in some unusual places - OTHER FILMS' SCORES!! Is THAT why the score is tied up in limbo? I want this music! I don't recall now which films availed themselves of bits of the score, but they were just being shrewd with a brilliant work of music! I have been known to put on the DVD and skip to the end credits and crank up the sound. Tim Burton's Corpse Bride DVD features a MUSIC-ONLY TRACK. Why isn't there one on this 2-disc set???

Summit Sony PSP Portable Grip with Free Screen Protector

Free Screen Protector Included
Customer Review: DO NOT BE FOOLED!
DO NOT BE FOOLED! This is a HORRIBLE product. It is made of extremely breakable plastic, and when you attach it to your PSP, it doesnt even lock in place! SO you could be playing a great game on your PSP and all of a sudden the grip slides out of place and you lose your game! It happened me the very first time i tried it! So really, LISTEN TO ME! DO NOT BUY THIS, it S.U.C.K.S.!!!
Customer Review: Why is this not in every store where you can buy a PSP?
This is mandatory to anyone owning a PSP for games. It improves the handling, grip and stability by 300%. The grips are the same size as the PS2 controller and the whole assembly together is a bit wider. The whole unit compacts on itself for portability, making it the size of a wallet. My only complaint is that it is a little flimsy and can come off if you are really into a game and torque the console. That's not good to do anyway, but it could have been made to connect a little more securely to the system. Another arm that screws into the top would make it perfect. The plastic could be a little more robust as well. The price is a steal, and I would pay twice that if the above issues were addressed. Sony should have made the system with these permanantly attached.

PSP 17 in 1 Starter Kit

Customer Review: Ok...probably could find better
I recently bought my PSP, and was looking for a complete kit for it. I purchased this travel kit, with a lot of expectations only to be let down. Contents - Well I got exactly what was advised - case, screen protection, car charger, headphones, PSP stand, etc. No problems here. Quality - This is where I have my hang ups. Everything feels really cheap in quality. The wires are all very soft, except for the USB cable. The charger, headphones feel as if you wrap them up, or just bundle them that they would break. The back up battery is also flimsy and not too practiacable. It has a very short connection so it will be more or less just hanging from the PSP. The case and screen protector were my favourite items. The case was a bit sturdy, as well as it looked nice. The screen protector fitted unto the screen really well and was hardly noticeable once you stick it down well. Overall - You get a lot out of this kit. Like I said, my PERSONAL preference was for something a bit more sturdy feeling. Everything still worked well, and does what it is suppose to do. The next problem I had was that there was no place to store all the accessories. It cannot fit in the PSP case, I just figured there would be enough room to carry about everything together. You will need to purchase a seperate bag or case that can store the headphones, audio splitter etc.

PSP Logic 3 Sound Grip

The PSP Sound Grip gives you everything you eed to hear more of your favorite PSP game sounds and soundtracks. Its elegant style and contoureddesign allows easy access to all controls and has ports for earphones&power. Includes stand, batteries and carry-case.
Customer Review: No. Dont do it.
Does not work with psp 2000 or psp slim whatever you want to call it. Does not fit the speaker plug or power plug. Got it for ten bucks new at gamestop. I use it to display my psp.
Customer Review: Slightly Logical Logic 3 Sound Grip
I bought this product, like the other reviewer, for some amplification. The grips on the back are a bit of a bonus, and the color blends in very nice with the original PSP motief. The sound is not perfect by any means, as I expected a bit louder by looks alone. It gives a boost, noticably, by maybe 3x, but I still agree there are other louder options on the market. However, for the price and portability it features, I haven't seen better (which is kind of sad that most of the other companies market the PSP sound devices as a set-and-watch movie player rather than a portable multimedia gaming system). The stand it comes with is very nice as well, but the bag it comes with is a screen abrasive waiting to happen. I scored mine for a cool 15 (Goody had it), but paying more than 20 is too much for what the product offers. Overall, alittle disappointed in sound, but still acceptable for it's ease of portability.

PSP Docking Station

The Naki PSP Docking Station gives you convenient plug-and-play power that keeps you gaming all day and all night long. It also works as an organizer for your system, games and accessories.
Customer Review: Nice basic solution for docking your PSP
I was tired of connecting my PSP to my PC and then put it on top of my desk. I felt it was going to scratch or fell to the floor anytime. So I went ahead and bought this little marvel. It does its job pretty good. When recharging the PSP it lights up a dimmed blue/grayish point in the base of the dock. You can't be happier these days paying 10 bucks for a PSP accessory and receive a good performance item.
Customer Review: Doesn't work
The only reason I got this "docking station" is to charge the device which it does not do. It does not have a plug on the bottom of the docking station to put into the charging port of the PSP...it has two little pins that are supposed to touch the positive and negative parts of the PSP charging port. After hours of trying there is no way to line these up properly. Even if I could get them to line up once in a while, it would be a balancing act that would take forever to line up each time. This is NOT what I call plug and play. If you just want to use the sync cable, then buy this relatively cheap dock. If you plan on actually using the docking part, look elsewhere.

PSP Initial D Street Stage (Japanese Version)

Initial D Street Stage is based on Version 3 of the arcade game, giving it some gameplay bonuses over Sega's successful PS2 version. Street Stage has all the characters, cars and tracks from Version 3 of the arcade game, and then some. In addition to wireless ad-hoc play, the game includes a new card element. Following each battle, you earn a card. Cards come in three flavors: rival, battle and tuning. The rival and battle cards are just for show, giving details, respectively, on the characters and classic battles from the series. The tuning cards, however, contribute to gameplay, as you can combine these to customize your car. In all, Street Stage features over 200 cards to collect.
Customer Review: This game Rocks!
This game is great! Its just like the arcade. This game is very challenging and the replays are awesome! If you like Initial D and own a PSP this is the game for you.
Customer Review: Not much fun. Didn't really enjoy this one...
I imported this one from Play-Asia. I was really looking forward to it, as it is so popular in the arcades, and I've played it on my Japanese Playstation 2. Just about every review I read at gamefaqsdotcom also gave it really high marks. But it just wasn't fun to me. I may be missing something from the different language (Japanese) but in general it was a real snoozer. I would recommend it, but have to say I personally didn't enjoy it. MC White said: Not fun, but true to the style of its big PS2 brother.

A crackling thriller from beginning to end, Die Hard explodes with heart-stopping suspense.
Customer Review: Best Action Movie EVER!
Best Action Movie EVER! Bruce Willis killing terrorists and the guy who played Carl Winslow on Family Matters? How could it be bad?
Customer Review: WE Will Never Forget!!
I am so horrified by this movie that I cannot watch it! I saw it when I was a kid and liked it. But looking at it now, it makes me so upset! Just look at the cover! Doesn't it look like the World Trade Center just after the planes smashed into them? Yeah, I know it's just 1 building, but the angle of the building is just creepy!! Okay, the movie was good; lots of blood and swear words, but I just can't get the images of the Twin Towers falling down like a building collapsing with explosives!! They should have a warning on the cover, saying something like: THIS IS NOT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER ON FIRE! THIS IS ONLY A MOVIE! I would like the movie more if they changed the box. But as it is, I can't watch it!!

Customer Review: Think Twice
I purchased this for my new PSP, as I fly overseas often, and wanted the longer battery life. However, this does not fit my PSP. It seems to be for another, larger model (maybe an earlier version of the PSP?). The unit does not sit properly in the cradle, so the contact does not touch. So the battery power is not accessible. In short, it's useless. Buy something else.
Customer Review: Over-priced
This item has an MSRP of $59.99 - you can find it cheaper from another retailer. That said, it is very comfortable to hold and the extra battery life is perfect for long trips. This will take up the screw holes at the top, so many flip-down screen covers won't work.

Cheaper by the Dozen [UMD for PSP]

No Description Available.
Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: PG
Release Date: 4-APR-2006
Media Type: 3"" Mini DVD for PH
Customer Review: Cheaper by the Dozen
Clean cut, entertaining movie, would recommend to anyone, especially if you grew up in a large family or wanted to know what it would be like to grow up in a large family
Customer Review: Cheaper but not always better
I'll watch anything that Steve Martin is in. While this one was entertaining, in a lightweight sense, some disturbing issues float in the undercurrent. As several reviewers pointed out, the kids seemed to be controlling the major issues in this family. (Is this a message we want to impart to our kids?) While the point, I'm sure, was to demonstrate that family should come first, and I agree with that, these kids were clearly running the show, not the parents ... and, uh, is that why big families are so much cozier and better? Which leads me to the next problem. Throughout the film, some pointed and rather negative comments were made in reference to small families and only children. It was implied that BIG families are so much better and that all small families are selfish and evil. In real life, big families are not always so close and happy; while many small families are close and functional and happy. All in all, this film had some very charming moments, yes, but then again, there were many times when I wasn't quite sure what it was trying to tell us ....

Customer Review: Bad Product
The day I recieved this product Amazon Cut the price in half.For a number of good reasons. The PSP slim fits so tight that when you try to open the case it is impossible to keep from getting finger prints on the screen. Not only that it turns the PSP on when the right side hits the on switch. I'm using it for a storage case for cables. I would not recommend this to even someone I didn't like.
Customer Review: It WILL protect your PSP
I ordered this case simply so I would have a protective cover for the screen when I transported my PSP in my backpack. I didn't expect or need much protection because I am normally VERY careful when it comes to my electronics. However, it is definitely what saved my PSP when my backpack zipper worked itself loose, and the PSP flew out and landed on the concrete at the airport while running for a bus! It fell very hard, and I was sure it was destroyed, but after getting on the bus, I fired it up, and it worked just fine! No damage at all! Definitely worth the money I paid for it!

Customer Review: I love this case!
Let me just say I love this case! This case is extremely sturdy and durable. I plan on taking this on airlines with me. It is perfect because I can use the straps and carry it with me without filling up my pockets. It has room for 4 umds (3 in the case plus 1 in the PSP, 4 memory stick slots, and access to the headphone jack (if it's a old psp). I'm using a Slim so the holes don't align, but that's okay. I don't plan on using it as a mp3 player. The slim fits really well. It hardly moves around. It's a great feeling, bringing your psp with you and not worrying about dropping it. Get this case. It's awesome!
Customer Review: Solid but bulky
Good case. sturdy and safe for your PSP. But why did logitech put this huge clear plastic cover over top of it? The case is black and there is a larger plastic top that appears to do nothing other than add extra bulk and weight. I am going to drill it off my case.

Customer Review: Doesn't fit
As nice as it looks, it doesn't fit properly on my PSP. It doesn't close well near the top...and some of the buttons, including the top two, get jammed in the frame when pressed. The PSP I have is listed as a model that can use the faceplate, but doesn't work for me. I eventually gave it away since it was of no use to me.

Customer Review: looks sharp...ish
this faceplate looks really nice on my psp. i had broken my oem faceplate and couldn't find a replacement that wasn't chrome or pink so i was happy to find fur : installation was a breeze, honestly took less than two minutes and i was back to gaming. i think it looks nicer with the original buttons, but i have yet to experiment with using a mix (original buttons are black, packaged buttons are clear). also when the power/memstick lights are active itt glows through for a nice effect. overall it looks really nice, only 4 stars because i wanted to take it off to swap out buttons.

PSP USB Link Cable

This USB Cable is compatible with your PSP, for easier transfer of audio and video files. Also includes Media Manager software for managing your movies, photos, mp3s and game saves.
Customer Review: It's a freakin USB cable,, however.....
You don't need this cable for transfering things, if you got one from your camera or something else, that will work as well. What the point I am trying to get across is that if you already have a calbe that works, or if you are planning on getting something that has it, why not buy yourself snacks at the grocery store and wait? It may be worth getting, but olnly if you can't afford something like a camera/ it's very cheap.
Customer Review: simple and it actually works
Over the last few weeks I had tried, without success, to transfer music to my psp. I used a usb cable we already owned but it never worked. I picked this item up for about 12 bucks and immediately wondered if I had just wasted my money. Got home and tried it out, and within maybe 10 minutes I had a couple songs on my psp. This product comes with a usb cable and 2 cd-roms used to install software. One is for the pc and the other is used for saving games on a ps2 console. I highly recommend this product. The media manager cd-rom makes it very simple to transfer media from the pc to the psp. When I first saw the package I was a little sketchy on buying it b/c it looks amateurish and almost like a novelty. But I have to say this thing works and works well.

PSP Star Soldier (JP Version)

Hudson brought back its shooting classic Star Soldier back to life on the PSP. Similar to the recent PS2 and GameCube remakes, the PSP title features fully polygonal graphics. A few new features are being prepared for the PSP. Your main means of fire has been set to auto on the PSP, meaning you won't have to keep on pressing the fire button in order to strike your opponents. The system's 16x9 display will be used to display the action like a vertical arcade shooter, as along as you're willing to rotate your PSP 90 degrees in order to play, of course. The PSP version includes a national ranking mode. Clear the game, and you'll get a password which can be input at the official Star Soldier site (via your computer, not your PSP) in order to get yourself placed.
Customer Review: Really Cool
Even though this is the Japanese version, the only part that's not in english is the text that tells you to flip your psp sideways (like you couldn't figure it out when the screen turns 90 degrees). This game is completely awesome. It forces you to play sideways, but thats what makes it great. I've never played any other version of this, but this feels like you're playing in the arcade. It's not too challenging - you'll probably master even hard mode after playing for a few hours, but the replay value is amazing, because you'll always try for a better score. There's some bonus stuff too: you unlock boss mode and level select mode (there's a third that I haven't unlocked yet). I've played every psp game out so far, and I think this is the only game worth buying (until GTA comes out).

PSP 4-In-1 Charger

Intec's PSP 4-in-1 Charger lets you power your Sony PSP anywhere. Connect it to a wall outlet, 12V car adaptor, even a free USB port -- and you'll get the juice to keep your game going.
Customer Review: 4 IN 1 AND SOME!!!
This product is great for all your charging needs. It is a car charger, wall charger, usb charger, and extra batter charger... ALL IN ONE! If you don't like carrying that bulky wall charger the PSP comes with then this is for you. It's very compact and the usb charge cable is retractable. I'd say the only drawback to this is that the usb charger takes really long to charge the PSP compared to the wall charger, other than that this a great product.
Customer Review: Quality Multifunctional Charger
I bought this for my son about three months ago to charge his extra battery. The product quality is fairly above average compare to some of the other junk you can get. The battery charger has colored lights to let you know whether the battery is charging (redish orange) or done charging (green). The USB attachment to attach the PSP to the charger (as a mobile charger)could have some issues because if you stretch it, it will obviously pop out of USB slot on the charger; thus nothing to "lock" it in. However, if you keep some slack, this is a great car charger while playing the psp. The retractable USB cord is a very good idea and is of good quality; its about three feet long. Both the car adapter and the home "prongs" fold away for easier storage. If you are looking for a multiple charger this is a very good value.

PSP PlayGear Share Splitter

Listen to music or watch movies with a friend using this handy stereo "Y" adapter for PSP.PRODUCT FEATURES: Converts a single 1/8" stereo jack into two 1/8" stereo jacks; Compatible with Logitech and other stereo headphones; Designed for PlayStation Portable; Also works with many portable audio and MP3 players.
Customer Review: great splitter
Paired this with the best speakers for psp/anything else.Nodus $34.99 is a steal because they used to go for $199.99 and getting 2 headphone jacks from something that only has 1 is fantastic. I might even pick up aditional psp headphone splitters because it's worked so well. Don't worry about the psp slim not docking with the speakers because with a male to male headphone cord you can plug in your psp. With a stero phono l / r to a male headphone cord you could even out put cable,dvd,ps3,ps2,360 or wii and because you have the logiteck psp splitter you can now do more than 1 thing at a time.
Customer Review: It works as an audio splitter... nothing else to report
This item is marketed for the PSP, which is strange because all it is is a simple audio splitter that takes one 3.5 mm input and outputs to two. It'll work with any PSP or mp3 player you can throw at it, allowing you to share music with a friend. There's really nothing special to report on this splitter. It works like any of the hundreds of other identical products on the market. I suppose I could make a minor complaint about the odd angle at which the 3.5 mm jack is placed. Otherwise, the rubber seems strong and sturdy enough that it won't break easily, but then again it's not all too flexible.

PSP Pro Gamers Case

Intec's PSP Pro Gamer Case is made of tough and durable aluminum, with compartments customized for securing your PSP along with your favorite accessories and games.
Customer Review: A nice enough case, but...
It's great for how much it holds, not so much for how it holds it. It's large enough to fit your PSP, the AC adapter, a car adapter, earphones, and perhaps half a dozen UMDS. However... The storage area is divided into five wells, and only one of them--the one for the PSP--is custom-sized to fit any of what you'll be putting in it. This is good in that the PSP itself won't get knocked around in the case, but the rest of what you put in it will hardly be organized, and you'll still want some kind of mini-storage unit for your UMDs. On the plus side, it has a briefcase-type pocket on the inside of the lid that you can easily load with paperwork (PSP- and UMD-related receipts, for example) and/or game booklets just to have them handy. But other than that, it could really have used a bit more customization. Some pegs or loops (snap or Velcro) for cords, a padded area with Memory Stick Duo and UMD slots, maybe a few snap pockets on the lid for a spare battery and headphones. With just a little more thought and care, Intec could have had a product for which people would happily pay five to ten dollars more.
Customer Review: Sony PSP Pro Gamers Case
I love the case as it allows me to take all my accesseries with me without having to have two or three smaller cases to lug around. Very durable and protects my PSP from damage.

Customer Review: Worth it?
I know its only 5 bucks, but by far; it must be the worst product i bought in amazon. You are better of buying 99cent headphones and they would last longer. The product came broken-looks and feels cheap.
Customer Review: Cant complain for the PRICE
I bought this for my PSP so that I can use it as a mp3 player. I wanted the remote option because the PSP is a bit big for a pant pocket and also a bit big to take in and out of your pocket. The remote works OK, the buttons feel a bit cheap and if you are not careful it will go back in a song when you are trying to go forward or skip songs when you are trying to fast forward or rewind. THe unit has PSP logos on it and seems like its a genuine sony product but when you use it you feel the cheapness in the plastic and buttons and know that it is not. The headphones sound ok. I am using my pair of sony headphones that i have had from before. People are complaining about the length of the cord but i like it because you can put the psp in your back pack and still have enough cord to move around comfortably Overall for $5 bucks you cant lose I am just giving a nitpickers review but $5 dollars and fully functioning you may give it a shot :)

Richard Pryor: Live On The Sunset Strip [UMD for PSP]

If Richard Pryor were accused of being the funniest man in America this film of his incredible stage act would be Exhibit A. It is proof beyond the shadow of a doubt! Shot live at the Hollywood Palladium the film captures all the excitement lunacy and electric force of a Pryor performance. And though he's the only star of this hilarious show he's never alone on stage. With him is his amazing array of characterizations as he talks about his trip to Africa in search of his roots his early days playing one-night gigs in Mafia-owned clubs and strip joints and numerous other outrageous topics. Finally he talks about Pryor on Fire - a recounting of the accident which nearly took his life - an episode he relates with wit and a touch of poignancy. You'll laugh like you've never laughed before!System Requirements:Starring: Richard Pryor Directed By: Joe Layton Running Time: 96 Min. Copyright Sony Pictures Home Entertainment 2005Format: UMD Genre: COMEDY Rating: R UPC: 043396122567 Manufacturer No: 12256
Customer Review: Ad Hoc Humor
Pryor is obviously a skilled comedian. He has the audience eating out of his hand from beginning to end. The concert takes place in 1982. The audience appears to have been born between 1942 and 1955. They laugh from beginning to end. I didn't laugh once. Aside from the riffs about working for the Mafia and Visiting Africa, I didn't even know what he was talking about. Particularly distressing was the audience calling out for a certain well-loved bit. Pryor acquiesced. "Okay. This is the last time." It wasn't funny. (The audience was in stitches.) It wasn't funny to me. So, I don't get it. Boomer drug culture? I'll bet I'm not the only person who doesn't find this funny.

Customer Review: Poorly constructed and overpriced.
I am going to be lenient by giving this product two stars only because it looks decent. Functionally, however, it deserves a negative (-) 7. The case is poorly contructed, what kind of company uses a METAL internal latch, which SCRATCHED my psp. It wasn't a light scratch, it is deep enough to the point where you can feel it if you run your fingernail over the scratch. I would never buy this case again, even if it was 1 dollar. I'm returning the product and I am most likely going to lose most of my refund money from the shipping costs, but that's fine with me because this product is really horrible. I am never going to buy a Nyko product again.

Customer Review: nice looking but.....
its a nice looking set up..but.. the skin doesnt seem to fit tight enough, and the anti glare protectors, edges dont stick very well..this isnot a problem if you use the two items together, as the skin hides the edges..overall it's a good way to protect that fragil psp...the feel of the skin, and the performance of the anti glare protector, are top notch!!just some minor fitment issues....

PSP Dock It

And, for a great way to showcase the PSP, Intec offers a Docking Station (G6710) that, together with the AC Adaptor, works as a powering center while keeping the unit secure on the user's desk or night stand.
Customer Review: Perfect Angle!
Dont listen to the other people they must have a problem with their heads or necks cause the viewing angle for the PSP is perfect. I mean if your either short or tall the viewing angle is still perfect you must be dumb enough to stand while watching the movie cause thats the only explanation for not able to view it at a perfect angle. As for the docking station thing it does not charge your battery but I really dont care i mean its light weight as it is and its better that way than if it be a normal docking station. So dont listen to those people thats my opinion.
Customer Review: PSP Dock It Review
Because I travel frequently, the Dock It comes in very handy when watching movies on a flight. The light and compact configuration allows for the Dock It to fit in my laptop case or backpack easily and when set-up, permits hands free viewing of video. This is important for obsessive people like myself, who hate getting fingerprints on their PSP. The considerations that were made for the power adapter and earpiece are very convenient also, even if you use third party accessories like Shure's E5 earphones or the Pelican Power Brick. Highly recommended accessory for PSP owners who actually watch movies on their system. Not recommeded if you intend to play games with the dock attached, as its not very ergonomic and from what I can tell, was not intended for that purpose.

PSP PlayGear Pocket

Packed with versatile features and made of virtually indestructible polycarbonate armor, Logitech's PlayGear Pocket offers full gaming control inside its protective shell - even the shoulder triggers are accessible inside the case! The lid easily adjusts to any angle, working as a sun visor - great for playing outdoors and your Logitech earbuds can be plugged into the headphone access port so you can listen to your favorite tunes on the go. Finished gaming? - simply close the lid and safely store the PSP inside PlayGear Pocket or traveling use its unique desktop stand feature to enjoy movies, music videos, photo slides and more.
Customer Review: PSP Protective Case
This is perfect for putting your PSP in and then tossing it in your bag. However, unlike the Otter Box for the iPod, this does not protect against shock or water. Also, the PSP slim has a little jiggle room in the case so be careful, perhaps add something else for more padding. The downside is that you can't use the device while it's inside, even if the lid is open. The charger jack is available, but the headphone/audio output jack is not. All in all, it's worth getting if you want something to hold your PSP while you're traveling about town. The other protective (and perhaps more important) gear to get is the screen shield which protects against scratches.
Customer Review: HORRIBLE case
This is a horrible case. Every time I drop the PSP, the PSP goes flying out of the case, the memory & battery go everywhere, and the miniCD cover gets knocked off. What's the point of a protective case that doesn't protect the PSP? Also, the description says that you can listen to music while the case is closed... WRONG!

Customer Review: Awsome
Wow! This thing is great. I mean you got everything you need and more. Plus it's pretty cheap for if you bought all this stuff separatly.(Did I spell that right?) Anyway it's wonderful and all of its item are very easy to use so I give this a 5/5 because it's well... GREAT!

Movies On PSP

X-Zoom Movies On PSP is the first commercial video & DVD software for the Sony PSP. It enables you to quickly convert your DVDs or movie files into a format your PSP can read and understand. Get the best possible picture and audio quality for 10 different input formats: DVD, (S)VCD, DivX, AVI, WMV, Real, MPEG and Quicktime. Over 10 presets make conversion easy, and the Fit-To-Stick technology resizes movie files to your memory stick size.
Customer Review: TERRIBLE, DO NOT BUY X-OOM!!!!
This product does not do work as advertised. It will not convert 99% of your DVD because of copyright laws. You must have another program called "mcldecrypt.exe" to decrypt your DVD's. Don't waste your time or your money on this product. Take it from someone who did.
Customer Review: For the Video iPod owners
I got this in hopes that I could watch my entire DVD collection on the PSP. That was okay until I got the copyright problem and 99% of my collection was unable to transfer. Easy to change with internet connection, they tell you the program and it can then transfer anything. Its nice on the PSP, great quality, but how many movies can you really store on PSP memory cards if you want the best quality, maybe two at the most. But when X-OOM transfers the DVD to your hard drive, you can then transfer it to iTunes, putting it then on your Video iPod. With a 60g iPod I've managed to fit (with the picture filling the screen entirely, with gorgeous quality) over 90 full length movies, with some Simpsons and Lost episodes. With TV DVD, you can transfer them by episode. Its a great product, doesnt run as fast as I'd like, maybe 2x, but its still a great program. AAAAA+++++

Customer Review: Poo-poo
Do you find that word laugh out loud funny when someone says it? Poo-poo. Doo-doo. I have more respect for pornogrophers and drug dealers than these Wayans Brothers at this point. You can imagine them as part of a top secret organization whose soul purpose and ultimate goal is to make mankind dumber. Everytime you laugh while watching one of their movies, assuming you laugh while watching one of these things, a small part of your mind dies forever. Doo-doo.
Customer Review: To Each His/Her Own
Personally, I throughly enjoyed the movie and continue to watch it over and over again. What I don't care for are those "reviews" that make claims that one has to be crazy to like or not like a particular movie based on their own feelings. As the old saying goes, to each his own. As for my feelings, it made me laugh and continues to do so. Laughter is one of the best forms of medicine and, in this day and age, something to be treasured.

Customer Review: Not that great
As the previous poster said, the PSP has contours and this screen protector will not stick to the edges. Trust me, it does not look good that way and will be a bother to you. I ended up throwing this away within a month and bought a HORI screen protector which i was more satisfied with. The HORI protector only covers the screen but that's all you need in my opinion. And with the slims coming out, the JAVO screen protector will end up covering the speakers which you might not want to do (unless they come out with a redesigned one).
Customer Review: shoulda just got one that covers ONLY the screen
I was really interested in getting one that covered the entire face of the PSP and this one looked good. But the thing is, the PSP has contours (duh, shoulda figured) so the protector doesn't stick to the edges, or around the buttons and everwhere there is labelling (like "SONY", "POWER" or the playstation emblem) there is an air bubble. The edges won't stick very well at all and now there is dust and [...] underneath it. I'll probably end up cutting off everything other than the stuff covering the screen itself. Other than that, it is very clear and the clarity and protection is great, but it does turn the rich black of the PSP to having a grayer tint, which is kind've expected from putting a layer of plastic on top of it.

I, Robot [UMD for PSP]

In the year 2035, technology and robots are a trusted part of everyday life. But that trust is broken when a scientist is found dead and a skeptical detective (Smith) believes that a robot is responsible. Bridget Moynahan co-stars in this high-tech action thriller that questions whether technology will ultimately lead to mankind's salvation . . . or annihilation.
Customer Review: Necessary changes to the book, even if some of the ideas are simplified
Lets face it, I, Robot the Asimov text would not make a great film, even if it were a great book. This attempts to sew the ideas in that book into an all encompassing package. On the whole, it succeeds. It is not perfect, but stands ahead of most of the superhero movies of the last 15 years and is up there among the better movies of the action genre. And Will Smith makes a good transition from comic to serious role.
Customer Review: Very Entertaining
This was perfect sci-fi distraction. For the third movie I watched in a row today, it still fully held my interest, which I consider a testament to just how well done it is. Of course there is some extent to which all sci-fi is cliche after you've been following the genre for decades, but this movie manages to make the old new again. The dialogue was fun. The characters likable. The plot twists were sufficient to keep you thinking, but not so overdone you had to scratch your head and try to make sense of it. There was even a healthy dose of food for thought, in terms of the nature of the sense of "self," how this develops, and what having one implies. Overall it delivered exactly what I was looking for in my final entertainment bite for a lazy Monday evening.

The exterior is water and shock resistant; The interior has a neoprene lining to absorb any hits your system might take.
Customer Review: This case ROCKS!!!
These cases do EXACTLY what they say. They add about 7 hours of battery life to your PSP. A flip holder isn't a huge deal as they come with a power cable that can run from the case to your PSP, or it charges it while you are not using it. This has saved my boredom on many a long trip. Protects the PSP. Charges the PSP. Brilliant! One word of warning, though, is not to pay more than $20. I can go into any GameStop and buy one for that price. I see them for $50 and there is no way.
Customer Review: It works great, except...
The blasted light won't stop blinking. It's supposed to blink when it's FULLY charged, but that light just keeps blinking until it dies. I suppose with a piece of electrical tape it wouldn't annoy me as much, but that would just look silly. It does do what it's supposed to though, it charges your PSP, though it is a little large and cumbersome to carry around. All around, not a bad product for the money, but it has quite a few flaws... I'll let you decide for yourselves whether that sounds like something you want.

Customer Review: Won't work
When this thing had finally arrived, I was all hyped up and ready to have some fun with people on Xlink Kai and MHF1. I did not have fun though, as the product would only allow me to connect to the game to the point where I could see other players name, but was unable to play with the people.
Customer Review: Buscar informaciÃ³n en la web antes de instalar
Hago la nota en espaÃ±ol para que se me entienda lo mejor posible: Este producto me tomÃ³ cerca de 5 minutos instalarlo tanto para el modo xlink kai como para la conexiÃ³n ad-hoc .... pero ANTES tuve que leer algunos manuales de configuraciÃ³n, el mas Ãºtil de todos ellos lo encontrÃ© en el foro del xlink kai en la secciÃ³n PSP. En dicho foro se encuentran enlaces a drivers y configuraciones recomendadas que funcionan perfectamente. AsÃ que jamÃ¡s toquÃ© los controladores que venÃan incluÃdo en el CD (que son la causa de los problemas de buena parte de los usuario) Le doy 5 estrellas al producto porque trabaja sin problemas tanto para la simulacion ad-hoc en el PSP (xilnk kai) como la simulaciÃ³n router. Con el WifiMax se pueden conectar otros dispositivos inalÃ¡mbricos y compartir la conexiÃ³n a internet pero, como dijo otro comprador, se necesita cierto conocimiento para que el adaptador les sea Ãºtil.

Customer Review: Vista Users
This is a great product I use it almost daily. Download has always been quick and easy for me. However, this is not for Vista users, even though it does say XP or later, which really sucks, because now I have to go out and buy it again when they have upgraded.
Customer Review: Easy, easy, easy!!! Just the way I like it!
I recently purchased a PSP and therefore was unfamiliar with it. I read of all the problems converting video to .MP4 format and transferring data to the PSP in general. Purchasing the Sony Media Manager software was an excellent decision! For $24.99 you'll get the proper USB cable and the software on CD. The software installs easily and flawlessly. The very first time I used it there was no need to even read the directions. It's a very intuitive, simple, drag and drop software application. In no time at all I had transferred photos, music and video to the PSP. The software did everything for me automatically and everything worked flawlessly. Easy, that's for me!

Anti-Glare and Ultra-Clear Screen Protector 2-Pack For Sony Playstation Portable PSP

Can't make a decision between the anti-glare and ultra-clear version of the PSP JAVOScreen? If so then this kit is for you. This kit includes one of both versions. Don't pass up on this incredible savings offer! No adhesive is used to hold JAVOScreen in place. It will not leave sticky residue on screen. Unlike other screen protectors, JAVOScreen is made of non-reflective material that is same as your original non-reflective LCD display. It does not create glare after applying. Application of JAVOScreen 2.0 on your screen provides a higher degree of clarity and that may significantly prolong the life of your screen.
Customer Review: Good protection for PSP Slim screen
I bought this for my PSP Slim. I am also using a protection case with the PSP Slim so I cut the protector to the screen size, as someone else had suggested in a review. I had some difficulty in removing air bubbles that are left underneath - even with the small tool they provide. It's a challenge if a particle is trapped underneath as it sticks and then trying to remove it directly can introduce more dust particles. Overall, I don't worry about the screen getting dirty or scratched. It also comes with a microfiber cloth for cleaning. Their are two of these in the pack.
Customer Review: Must have PSP accessory
I hate the shiny PSP screen - it looks nice at a glance, but watching a full movie or going for a game play for a long time kills your eyes. These protectors are nice and thick, so they can take a beating and fully protect the screen. On top of that, because of the material used, they do a great job of cutting glare without reducing too much visibility. I can't imagine using my PSP without one of these on it these days.

Customer Review: Great product
THese speakers are attractive, small enough to port around, and have a great sound for the price. I'm a casual listener, not going for the "surround sound" deal with my Ipod. It makes no difference to me whether i can dock my Ipod on my speakers or not. I have an Igo charger and for me it's just as easy to plug that in or let my Ipod run off the battery for a while. That's what it's for. I wanted speakers I could take on trips with me. I chose these speakers primarily because they have both battery and electric power capabilities. I use them all the time and I could not be happier with them. They are loud enough for my preferences (espeically since they are so small) and always sound good. I highly recommend this product for the casual listener who wants something attractive and portable.
Customer Review: It soundz good
I went to FYE in manhattan & luckily i had my PSP & i plugged this little thing to the PSP. It sounded OK without the 3D setting but with the 3d setting sound AWESOME!!! I would recommend it if ur not lookin 4 summtin so expensive i liked it.... but i like the Logitech Speakers better

PSP Ultimate Leather Case

This leather carrying case lets you take your game on the road. Carry your PSP or PSP 2000 console in a fine leather case that helps shield it from damage.
Customer Review: Has a magnet. Very strong magnet !!!
It is hard to believe that these guys will put such a strong magnet. Iam sure it will ruin the PSP LCD screen. I dont have 100% proof it will be harmful... based on my understanding of LCD screens constant exposure to magnet is not very good.
Customer Review: The best of the mediocore
Ok, to kick things off lets start out with the design of the case. The case is a relatively hard case with a stiff (though relatively high quality) leather and a softer, velvety, interior. Second is how well it fits the psp. This case is quite interesting in the way it houses your prized investment. It allows you to play the psp while it is inside the case via a strong and sturdy METAL (not cheapy the cheapo plastic) clip and holds it very securely. The case closes snugly and holds the the psp very well with no exposed parts of the console. There are however, well placed holes for the use of headphones and a charger. The only problem is opening the case afterwords. For the first few days, as the leather adjusts to your psp, it only opens slightly as it is holding the psp very snug. Simply stick your finger into the case and hold down your psp while opening and its a no braniner opening it. After a few days the is no longer necessary as the case has been opened and closed so many times that it loosens up. Overall, its the 3rd psp case i have had (First the logitech, then a old ds one) and it is by far the best! I highly recommend it!

Customer Review: Says what it does and does what it says
When I traded my old PSP Fat in for a PSP Slim at that big game store chain, they didn't want to take my extended-life (2200 mAH "Stamina") battery pack. I kept it and found that it worked with the PSP Slim, though the Slim's battery door wouldn't fit over it. I wasn't about to buy Sony's entire extended battery kit because I already had the battery. I went looking for JUST the extended battery door from a vendor in North America and I found this. I'm very happy with the result. The part fits like it was made by the OEM (that's good) and looks the part, too. It is, perhaps, a shade darker than the plastic on my Piano Black PSP Slim, but the polish/gloss is the same and the difference in color is really not noticeable. Yes, my PSP Slim is now a bit fatter on one end, but that's not enough to mess up the Slim form factor for me. More time between charges is good for me, especially as I tend to use my PSP the most when traveling. The new door just looks like a normal part of the device, which is good when you get randomly selected at an airport security checkpoint. I'm sure something jerry-rigged (duct tape) would attract more attention. (The extended battery lasts for a long time in the Slim. The internal battery life estimator says 11 hours on a full charge, but I'm fairly certain I've gotten more, mixing music playback, gaming, and a UMD movie.)

Customer Review: Cradle is not PSP Slim compatable
PROs: Arrived in good time and in good condition. The sound is crisp and clear, exactly what I thought it would be. The second power cable is a major plus. CONs: The only thing about this product that disapointed me was the fact that the cradle was made for the PSP-1001. It doesnt say that anywhere that I could find so i am letting you know.
Customer Review: Probably the best external sound solution for the PSP
Awesome. It looks good, doesn't feel flimsy and has great sound for the price and size of the unit. It's also extremely portable and the case is decent. Though I will say that the review that describes this as producing sound on par to that of a top-notch portable stereo is a bit overstated. I'd say it's more like decent computer speakers. Then again, I'm kind of a sound snob. I'd have given it 5 stars if the sound could rattle my living room windows. One minor bad point, the cradle didn't fit my PSP Slim God of War Edition. Hardly a deal-breaker though. All in all an excellent product.

Customer Review: Dont waste your $$$
Unless you enjoy uninstalling and reinstalling software everytime you use it then this isn't for you (or me I gave it away). The program stalls trying to look for media on your hard drive during every use. Then even half the time re installing it doesnt work. Just a waste of time!!!!

Customer Review: Fair quality, lack of information
This kit is designed for old PSP systems. The screen protector does not fit very well the PSP slim so you might probably have to give it to a friend. The car charger is very useful and the case is OK. Cheap price for an OK product. Don't expect a great quality kit
Customer Review: It's ok
The case is fine, not a lot of room for a whole lot else besides the psp and a small set of earbuds, but it does what it needs to do. Havn't really tried the car charger yet. Took me a little while to get used to the plastic shield, before i used to just take it off when i was playing. Now i've replaced the analog stick with one that comes in this package (much better analog stick), but i can't take the cover on and off without removing the new stick. So i've gotten used to it and it's really not all that bad. Only 4 stars because of the stick/shield issue.

Customer Review: very bad product
The padlock is cheap, there was no lens cleaner like the description said, the shield was very cheap and didnt work at all, and why would you need a UMD Cartridge Cleaner for? over all it was a very bad transaction and wasted $35.00 on junk and will never do business with this God awful company again and they may have great rating but stay away from them as they will dupe you and just plain take your money. And it looks like they went to Game Stop or Walmart and got it. I am very very dissatisfied with this company

PSP Breath of Fire III

The legendary RPG series Breath of Fire comes to PSP with tales of long forgotten worlds, intrepid heroes and ancient, mystical powers. A destiny awaits you... A small boy on the run... a dragon reborn in flames... The last of an extinct race, with mighty powers. A small boy, outcast from society. Ryu is both, a dormant dragon, awakened by miners, turned into an innocent child. Ryu may not remember his fiery past, but is destined to regain his powers, fulfilling his epic destiny... Appearing for the first time on a handheld console, Breath of Fire III is the third instalment of this classic RPG series. Graphically enhanced to take advantage of the PSP's screen resolution, Breath of Fire III follows the fate of Ryu as he embarks on an epic quest to discover his ancestry and understand the dragon power that has awoken inside of him. The PSP version also includes a bonus Fishing mode at 18 different locations in the game world. Thanks to the Game Sharing function Breath of Fire III owners can also send this Fishing game to their friends to enjoy even if they do not have a copy of the game.
Customer Review: Good classic
After finding out that Star Ocean 1 and 2 were coming out for the PSP I tried to research some of my favorite PSX and other classic RPG's. I'm still not sure why BOF III did not come out in North America, but I am glad I found it and still play it all of the way through. The shipping was a lot faster than I expected and the game was in perfect condition.
Customer Review: Not worth it.
Total waste of my money. The game is BORING! I don't why people praised it so much. Though the Dragon transformations are cool. But it's still not worth $40. There are other games out there you can try but I definitely wouldn't recommend this one.

Customer Review: Open and Shut Case
This is a great case for your PSP. It's solid. It's durable. It comes with a great screen protecter built in. It's a nice material. It's light weight. All around it's a great case to protect that precious PSP. It's the one I use now, and I can't see me getting a different one. Granted it's not a PS made case, it's still a darn good one. Only knock against it, to me, is the inability to use the headphones when it's in the case. I, personally, take it out of the case when I play anyway. Still a good buy. Case closed.
Customer Review: Very Good Case
This case is a very good case. It even works with the PSP 2000 (PSP-slim). The case does its job very well. It protects the PSP unit as it should. It's a solid sturdy case. The screen cover is great, it seems to protect the PSP screen very well. The inside is lined with a type of rubber/foam material that protects your PSP from getting scratched. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase. The only flaw I can find is that even though all the connections line up pretty nicely with the case, the Head phone's jack is covered. You can not see it at all when the PSP is in the case. Again, I have a PSP 2000. I don't know if that will still be an issue with the PSP 1000. This is the only reason why I don't give it 5 stars. I mean, I have to pull the PSP out of the case in order to use the head phones.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force - Volume 4 [UMD for PSP]

Somewhere in New Jersey, three roommates with superpowers, Master Shake, Frylock and Meatwad, unite to solve the neighborhood's unnatural mysteries. When they're not fighting crime or each other, they relax by swimming in their next-door-neighbor's pool.
Customer Review: Pure Genius
I'll admit it,the first few times I watched this cartoon I thought it was stupid. Then, one day I watched a full episode and I couldn't believe how funny this show really was. I believe Master Shake and Carl are the funnirst characters and voice characterizations I have ever seen or heard. What seperates A.T.H.F from other Adult Swim Cartoons is the chemistry,writing,and characters. This show to me is pure genius. I mean, how the hell could you even think this stuff up, its beyond me which is why it's a highly successful show. I personaly own every dvd box set (1-4) including this UMD. With all this hype the UMD has zero extras and zero commentary but I could care less. If you value bonus materials more than just the thirteen episodes then you should buy the dvd, (but If you are as lucky as I am by owning a PSP) and enjoy the show I highly recommend buying this UMD. If one day I were to bumb into any writer/director/producer/actor of the show I would shake their hand and tell them what a great job they have done with the show. This is my absolute favorite cartoon in the whole world and I would make a strong bet that there will be new seasons in the short future.
Customer Review: The mooninites are taking over my PSP!
Aqua Teen on the Go can only mean one thing. Having the person next to you think you're crazy for watching a cartoon about happy meal items. Nothing cooler than freaking out the squares! It's worth the extra cash for the supberb quality and to scare the normals.

Customer Review: The perfect screen protector for PSP slim
This is the best screen protector for the PSP slim. I tried the Hori,the invisible shield, both of which were rather disappointing. This one is much much better. The size is a prefect match to PSP slim screen. I don't know why there is only a few reviews out there for this product, which made me feel like taking a big risk when I decided to give it a shot. Being the best one, it is also the most expensive one I've ever used. And I think it is worthy. I bought the Ultra-clear version, which, just as advertised, is hardly detected. There is anything but distortion. And it does make fingerprints much less noticeable. However, it doesn't provide anti-glare effect. I think this is, again, just as advertised: it looks exactly the same with or without the protector. If you will play the PSP indoors, you can't go wrong with this one. Yet, if you plan to play outdoors very often, there is an Anti-glare version available. Go get that one. Overall, this is an excellent screen protector for the PSP slim. And the seller is very friendly and helpful. I strongly recommend this product.

Customer Review: number five alive
When I first seen Short Circuit on Amazon, I couldn't wait for it to come out. I checked all the stores and couldn't find it, so I came back to Amazon and bought it automatically. When I got in the mail, I immediately popped it in my psp and relived a great movie which I hadn't seen in gotta be fifteen years. But anyway great movie all the way. The only knock is the umd itself, they coulda put a whole lot more emphasis on the load screen.All you get is the title Short Circuit on a grey background. You put in Spiderman you get scenes from the movie backed by an orchestra.Maybe it's just me or just because the movies are twenty years apart. Either way the movie still is great. Who's Johnnie she says. CLASSIC
Customer Review: Well suited for UMD
While demonstrating the latest in automated warriors, one of them (number 5), gets arbitrarily struck by lightning, hence "Short Circuit." It (he) escapes the compound and is befriended by a ditzy mobile caterer (Ally Sheedy.) Here is how it goes: She mistakes the robot for an alien. He learns what it is to be alive. Security wants it dismantled before it takes their place. However we know "it just runs programs" (yah right) Will Ally discover her mistake? Will the robot escape. Can they recover it before it blows something up? Careful you may find yourself rooting for Johnny Five.

PSP Power Tuner

NYKO focuses on bringing to market innovative products with a broad appeal for major entertainment systems.PRODUCT FEATURES:Listen to PSP movies, songs and games through your car stereo;Charge PSP using your automobile's lighteror power port;3 channel settings allow tuning for clearest reception;Charge and play the PSP while transmitting audio to your stereo;4-foot cable;FCC and UL approved.
Customer Review: Basically does the job
This is a great little thing - I don't use it for a PSP though, I use it to listen to music on my Toshiba Gigabeat while driving, as the 3.5mm and DC connections are the same. Some may complain of a high pitched whine while powering the device and playing at the same time, and this does occur. So it's not really recommended for use while the car is stationary. However once you are driving the noise of the road pretty much masks this out and it's not noticeable. The noise is also less if you increase the output of the Gigabeat and turn down the volume on the car radio. So basically if you are an audiophile then you'd better look at some direct connection inputs to your car stereo. But otherwise, it's a practical little product that works fairly well.
Customer Review: Not worth your money
It is a very good concept, but flawed in its execution. The transmitter works ok as long as the PSP is disconnected from the power and there aren't too many competing stations close by. Apparently there isn't enough shielding material between the power and the FM antenna, when the PSP is plugged to both a high pitch whine can be heard at all times over the three selectable frequencies. Even when the power is disconnected there is a very low hum in the background, but at least this one can be ignored. Also watch for similar products combining power and transmitter from the other companies as they may be the same rebranded product.

PSP Ultimate Game and UMD Case

The Ultimate Game Case for PSP are designed specifically for Sony's new UMD (Universal Media Disc) game disc format. They're custom-fitted to keep your games protected and scratch-free!
Customer Review: i thought it was a pretty good product
This product is a pretty good value. I love that you can hold up to 8 UMD's at a time and up to 2 Memory sticks at a time. I just had it delivered and i already love it. Overall i say it is a very good product and i recommend it to anybody with a psp and wants to hold his or her games in a slim case.
Customer Review: Good holder, though hard to open....
There's not really much I can say about this product. It's a game/UMD movie holder, and it does just what the name implies: it holds games and UMD movies. I suppose the best compliment I can give it is to say that I just bought my third one a couple days ago due to filling up my first two. It holds my PSP cartidges nice and securely....a little too securely, I sometimes think. It seems pretty tight. But, it keeps the discs from falling out, which is a plus. The only real complaint I have is that it can be pretty difficult and painful for the fingers to open them when they're fully latched shut. I find myself pulling the top forward, past where it latches. If you have one, you know what I mean. I pretty much leave them like that, and they don't open up on me, and they also don't kill my fingers when trying to open them. All in all, for the price, I'd recommend getting this case instead of an Altoids tin or Pringles container. I've never used either of them, but they don't seem to me to be very appropriate for over $100, sometimes, worth of games and movies. 'Course, to each his own. For me, I'll stick to the case that was actually designed for UMDs.

Psp Fm Stereo Transmitter with Car Charger

8-channel stereo FM modulator

Digital LCD tuner with blue LED illumination

One-touch button control
Customer Review: Will they ever make one of these right?
Ok so after reading all of the other reviews on poor FM Transmitters for PSP - I figured I'd give this product a shot since there wasn't a review at the time. Features: The product doesn't weigh much but it's somewhat bulky. The cheap feeling plastic looks nice and glossy, but still cheap. The blue-lit LCD screen is nice and makes the channels easier to read. 7 Channels are better than the other products with only 3. It is a charger also, which is nice on the go. There are built in, fold out, cord management legs on the side of the unit which keep access cord in check. What went wrong: You cannot charge your PSP while using the FM transmitter. It creates horrible interference what will hurt your ears while listening to music. It's either a transmitter or a charger, not both. The directions say to keep both your radio and PSP volume low when setting up and for best operation, turn your PSP volume down and use the radio to control the sound. I'd like to ask them if they tested this. You will have to keep your PSP volume to near max to get sound to play. I almost thought the product was broken until I adjusted this. Your radio also needs to be at about half max volume. Summary: It is not too bad as an FM transmitter. Sound quality is slightly better than radio but you will still get normal radio interference from time to time. It's good for those of us who want a ton of songs streaming to our radios but don't feel like changing CDs every few songs. I'd recommend this to anyone who fits that description. Either charge your PSP or use the transmitter. It's cheap, it works for the most part, but it leave much to be desired as do most similar products in this category. I hope this helps!

Customer Review: Nothing like the description
I bought this from a giftcard along with other things. When I first opened it, I couldn't easily. Then I could only put 3 games in it without them breaking. The worst thing is that I was walking to school and I took a tiny leap and then the PSP( which is awsome) fell out!!! This happened twice to me. AVOID BUYING THIS!!! But my psp fits in here so maybe those other peoples cases are different. GO RED SOX!!! Also the strap is just plain terrible and it's really short when it's strapped on. The case keeps hitting you side when you walk so that's definetly a minus. This product gives the PSP a terrible name. Also I don't think it's right to put around your neck because it's too big.
Customer Review: Avoid this case, buy the Logitech instead
I looked at this unit closely when I bought my PSP - it's too large to hold the unit securely, it's cheaply put togethor and seemingly very easy to break - it simply isn't effective as a means of protecting the PSP. It's attractiveness begins and ends with the low price; do yourself a favor and buy Logitech's Playgear Pocket instead. It's solid, sturdy, fits the PSP PERFECTLY, allows for access to the headphone and A/C plugs so the unit can be charged or used as a music player while it's being protected, it's lined with material that keeps the unit from getting scratched and helps cushion it from bumps, and it can double as a stand to hold the PSP up for perfect UMD movie viewing. It's $19.99, but isn't it worth $20 to protect your $250 PSP?

Customer Review: Better than Hori
Putting on screen protectors is not fun but a necessity. This is a better screen protector than the Hori. It comes in 2 sizes, one that overlays the entire PSP and one that fits just the screen. I got the one that just covers the screen. It actually fits the screen, this was a major shortfall with the Hori as it is way too small, and comes with a plastic card applicator to smooth out the air bubbles ... something the Hori lacks entirely. I will give a piece of advice here as you can easily reapply this to the screen to get the best fit possible ... use scotch tape between applications! This is a must as it will clean the screen protector off making it ready to reapply to get that perfect fir :^) Just dab it on and off the screen protector until all lint / dust is off and don't forget to wipe the PSP screen itself off again (with a cloth not the tape ;^) It took me about 3 attempts to get it perfect. Please note, Javo makes 2 versions of this product one for PSP1000(original) and one for PSP2000(slim) be sure to order according to your model. Now my PSP screen looks good with no glare and NO AIR BUBBLES ;^) This product is definitely worth the couple extra dollars over the Hori for your PSP ... I recommend this product.

PSP Core Gamer External Battery

Keep your PSP charged longer, for more game time! Dimensions - 9 x 1.5 x 6.5 inches Weight - 0.5 pound
Customer Review: Warning: Could be a ticking bomb
While I had this product it seems to work great, I used it on flights, road trips and about anytime I needed an extra couple hours of gaming. Then one night while I had it charging I woke up startled after hearing a loud pop. It turns out one of the batteries in this thing exploded, leaving a large black powder stain on my desk (it cleaned up pretty easily) and throwing small pieces of plastic all over my room (some of them went ~11 feet where they were stopped by my door!). I'm just glad nothing in my room was broken and the psp-charger wasn't damaged. I don't want to even imagine what might have happened had this thing exploded in my laptop bag, or even worse in my pocket! I've now just decided to stick with sony branded batteries and trying to make it to save points before doing a battery swap.
Customer Review: PSP Core Gamer External Battery
When I first plugged in the PSP Core Gamer External Battery, it worked great. The recharging Amber light was on and working. After 15 minutes it was off. I thought maybe my PSP was fully charged. I tuned on my PSP and saw that there were only 2 battery bars. I thought maybe I didn't charge the PSP Core long enough. I charged it for about 2 hours. Same thing. Maybe it takes a long time to charge. I charged it for 16 hours just to make sure. I plugged it into my PSP and only got 15 minutes of charge time. I left my PSP on to drain the battery. Same thing. 15 minutes of charge time. This is junk. Don't get it. Even if mine was a dud, there will be others. Another reviewer said his was a dud too. I can't find a good portable rechager. I had a portable rechager call PSP Power Block and that worked great. I can't find it again.

The PSP Soft Genuine Leather Case is a chic way to give your PSP the ultimate protection.PRODUCT FEATURES:Made from Genuine leather;Powerful magnetic button closure system;Carry strap and 2 slots for UMD disks included.
Customer Review: Very nice case. . .
I wasn't quite sure what to expect when ordering this seeing no other reviews for it on Amazon (this is the first). That said, I'm pretty pleased with this PSP case. Due to the dearth of information on the page, here's the rundown: 1. This case fits both PSP (PSP-1000) and PSP Slim (PSP-2000). I have both and they both fit. It was designed this way. 2. This case has two pockets (mesh type) for two UMDs. 3. This case is padded, but I wouldn't trust it to protect from a high drop. 3. It is leather and is very reminiscent of a pocketbook or checkbook cover (the leather ones). 4. Has a pocketbook-like magnetic clip that keeps it securely shut. It doesn't matter which size PSP you put in it. 5. It has a rather cheaply made lanyard with clip to attach to the case itself (not the PSP), but this could be easily replaced. The material seems to be rough nylon and appears to be somewhat frail. I'll probably remove it. 6. The interior is soft cloth that shouldn't scratch or damage the screen or surface of the PSP. For the price alone, this case should be considered. I've looked at a lot of other cases before and never seen one quite like this. If you're looking for a nice leather case for your PSP, either the original or the slim design, that will keep it a little anonymous and provide some padding and storage, then this is an excellent choice.

Customer Review: PSP SPEAKERS
This little device is perfect for PSP is you want the extra sound and just want to have a theater sound coming from two small speakers, these are for you, there small, combat stylish and good to walk with, i would recommend anyone in buying this for there PSP, and for $20.00 you can't ask for a better deal, fast shipping as usual, now i can watch my movie and not strain to hear it
Customer Review: Not the best
First off, if you have a PSP Slim (PSP 2000 series), it will not fit right. It will hang on and you'll have to secure it with something like tape. The speakers have two hooks that fit into the screw holes at the top of the PSP and another two hooks that hold onto the bottom of the PSP. The audio is louder by far and easier to hear in a noisy environment, but the audio quality is not as crisp as the built in speakers. Lastly, the speakers require their own power source, so get two AAA batteries ready. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Having it's own power source does free up more play time on your PSP. Personally, if you have a slim, don't bother buying this. If you have a regular classic PSP...well...I'd just recommend finding a better quality speaker to use.

Customer Review: Very Good Memory Stick
I bought this memory stick for the psp, it works, it does its job and doesn't break. This memory stick fits in the psp and it is a much cheaper buy. You can buy the sony memory stick but it is the same thing, save some extra bucks and buy this one. 256MB is the perfect amount of space for a couple game saves and about 80 to 100 songs. Personally that is all i need. I strongly recommend this memory stick for the psp but if you are getting it for something like a camera then you should read the manual and make sure this would fit. For the psp BUY THIS MEMORY STICK! It is perfect. And you could save a few extra bucks.
Customer Review: Perfect for your game saves
I bought this card and a 1 gig card at the same time. The 1 gig card I use to store lots of music or I put a movie on it to pass the time during my commute. This card is used for my game saves. I have three games right now and I still have plenty of space left. Itll be a while (if ever) that I will need another card for my game saves. What can I say? It does just what I want it to and at a fair price.

Monster House [UMD for PSP]

Even for a 12-year old D.J. Walters has a particularly overactive imagination. He is convinced that his haggard and crabby neighbor Horace Nebbercracker who terrorizes all the neighborhood kids is responsible for Mrs. Nebbercracker's mysterious disappearance. Any toy that touches Nebbercracker's property promptly disappears swallowed up by the cavernous house in which Horace lives. D.J. has seen it with his own eyes! But no one believes him not even his best friend Chowder.What everyone does not know is D.J. is not imagining things. Everything he's seen is absolutely true and it's about to get much worse than anything D.J could have imagined.System Requirements:Run Time: 91 minsFormat: UMD Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: PG UPC: 043396155961 Manufacturer No: 15596
Customer Review: Jodi's review Spooky and Scares Your Guts Out
This movie is a bit like Sony Pictures first animated movie Open Season. This movie will crack you up. The characters are DJ, Chowder, Jennny and Nebbercraker. DJ has a mean babysitter named Zee and her crazy boyfriend Bones. DJ's parents left him till tomorrow night. DJ and Chowder sneak out to investgate Nebbercraker's house. Chowder finds out the house is alive. The next day DJ and Chowder save a girl named Jenny. She becomes friends with them then they call the cops. One was a rookie and the other was rude. Then the house ate everyone, so now that they're in the house they must find the heart and put out the fire. You even get to see Nebbercrakers old wife Constance. In my family this movie would be top awesome after Transformers this movie would be perfect for Halloween. This movie I really like because when I watch other horror movies they sometimes scare the devil out of me and I can't fall asleep. Monster House is really different from other horror movies. First it is a cartoon with comedy in it and last horror so this would be a horror movie for kids. This movie was made by Steven Spielberg. Thank you for reading this. Good Bye.
Customer Review: Great story and animation!
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Spooky scary. Probably too much so for kids under 11. Highly recommend.

Customer Review: Great way to store tons of UMD's
The negative comment must have been a fluke, because mine fit perfectly, close fine and are built well. The best part about using this unit over the others is that if you own a lot of UMD's, like me, the cases' CD shape and size allow you to store the case in any rack, storage case or binder made for CD's! SECOND great thing about it being a CD type case, you can use any of the CD case labeling systems out there to make a custom CD case insert. You can see through the front to identify what's inside and make a custom label for the back/spline. It is a good case. May fit tight when brand new, but gets easier as it is used.
Customer Review: Great Item
Don't know what the previous reviewer's problem is but I found this item to be great. Never had any problems with the case breaking or falling apart and because it's the size of a CD case, it's easy to carry and stash in my backpack or wherever. I highly recommend this item. I'll keep buying it as my collection increases.

Kollon Asian Version Sony PSP Game

Your goal in Kollon is to eliminate blocks from a board by grouping like-colors together. You can rotate groups of four blocks left and right. Lining up four pieces of the same color to make the pieces disappear from the board. As the four pieces are disappearing, you can continue connecting more pieces to the group, adding to a growing chain of piece annihilation. The game ends when your stack of blocks hits the top of the screen.
Customer Review: Kollon was a surprise.
I love imported games. I own games that I honestly can't play, just because of the amount of text in them (Dragon Quest IV for the Famicom comes to mind) or that they're games to which I have absolutely no clue of the rules (like Mahjongg). But that said, I love puzzle games too, and those usually are easy enough to figure out. Kollon, while it's no Tetris or Lumines, is a sturdy puzzle import for people looking for a game to kill a few hours. The point of the game is to combine, similar to the Puyo Puyo series, four blocks of the same color and eliminate them from the play field, which is constantly filling back up from the bottom. If your chains of blocks are disappearing in rapid succession, and you're playing against another player (if you're like me, and no one else HAS this game, then the CPU opponent), it'll manipulate their screen by either filling up with empty, "blank" blocks, or molding together existing, touching blocks of the same color, dumping MASSIVE bricks, or even adjusting the size or abilities of your own curser (which is used to move blocks around for elimination). This is a fun game, sure. It's easy to pick up (even in this imported version) and figure out the simple menus, and when you actually get into the game it's a blast. As someone who doesn't speak or read Japanese (you'd think I'd pick some up by now lol), it's a fun game with a few annoying issues due to the language. But like I've said, I love puzzle games, and this was definately a worthwhile pick-up. (This game as also been released in the US as "Ultimate Block Party.")

PSP Action Replay

The Action Replay MAX for PSP delivers better gaming action. Besides allowing players to download new tricks, secrets, characters and power-ups, it can act as a save organizer to make sure you've always got access to a game with all items unlocked, fully maxed characters and more.
Customer Review: What is this?
upon receiving this item i wasn't impressed at all.... it's nothing more than a memory management program, and not your typical cheat device like the other AR Replay items are. I am disappointed in this product. I wouldn't suggest this if you are looking for a cheat device for your games.
Customer Review: Hardly worth it.
I fear this product is highly misleading. Most Action Replay devices actually give you the ability to manipulate in-game conditions; offering unusual circumstances like infinite life, massive experience point rewards after battle, lots of money, item upgrades, etc. In such cases you can choose to start a game anew with the data manipulation or actually use the device to alter an already-existing game. Not So With the PSP Action Replay! This device is basically an overpriced way of putting someone else's data onto your PSP. With it, you can take "game saves" from Datel's website or directly from other players and upload them to your PSP's memory card, basically putting onto your PSP the ability to play someone else's game. In most cases, these game saves are already at the end of the game. Now it can be somewhat interesting to play through a game ignoring some of the more cumbersome mechanics of the game, but what is the point of taking someone else's data and skipping the game entirely? In addition, there are multiple OTHER ways of acquiring game saves and putting them onto your PSP, for cheaper and with better manipuation possibilities. I recommend PSP Media Manager. With this software, you can go to various websites and download game saves and upload them to your PSP, but it also has video/photo/music etc. support as well. It's cheaper, does pretty much the same thing and has more options to offer. I love my AR Max items for my other systems, but in this case, this AR Max missed the mark.

PSP 3 in 1 Carrying Case Black

Protect your PSP wherever you travel!
Customer Review: PSP Radica Black 3-n-1 carrying case
it is a pretty good case probaly the best case for the PSP but the original not the new one you can open two flaps one for access to the headphones and another for the ac input (for the new psp model the ac input is the only one that works as the headphone are more to the right) in the middle of the case is a plastic window which you can see your psp inside on the top you can hold 4 memory cards and under your psp a umd pretty good case i like it one of the few cases i found that compltely protects your psp as most leave a lot of the psp exposed so why am i buying it anywhy? plus great price This is the best case for the Original PSP but not so great for the new psp slim but for the style and protection you can't go wrong they should make a psp slim model also that would be great, still this case is one of the best out there!!
Customer Review: Finally, a case that works for both phat and slim (mostly)
I've searched around for good cases for my PSP Slim, without much luck because most cases are designed for the original PSP, so a Slim would actually move around in the case, which is no good. Good news is this case does hold a slim, and it holds it down. No need to worry about it moving around. The places inside that hold the memory sticks and a UMD work perfectly. Alas, the only issue with a slim is the rubber port on the bottom that's supposed to open up so a headphone jack can be plugged in does not work with a slim. The port with the AC plug does, but a slim owner will only be able to charge the PSP while it's in the case, no listening to music or anything. But since I don't have any plans of doing anything with the PSP while it's in the case except charging it, it's not that big a deal personally, though other customers' mileage may vary.

PSP Pouch and Wrist Strap

Protect your PSP and carry it more easily than ever!
Customer Review: The Perfect PSP Case
The perfect PSP case, IMO. Well, the "perfect" case...of the ones that are on the market. I would have designed some type of closure on the opening, maybe Velcro? However, that's a minor criticism because the unit fits very snugly into the pouch and will not accidentally slide out. I even attached the wrist strap to the PSP, dangled it around, and the pouch did not budge. But when you are ready to play, this case is fast and easy! (My PSP is the slim silver edition. See my photos above) This case adds as little bulk as possible while still protecting the unit. It is a soft case. I mostly use my PSP at home and by the pool. In this case it fits easily in my pocket and backpack. For extended traveling or tougher environments you might want a hard shell. I got mine here at Amazon but I've seen them for less at a couple other video game stores, just FYI. Seventeen dollars here (currently) is a bit spendy for a piece of fabric covered foam LOL. But it's the only option I have found for someone who wants a slim form factor case. ps. Before getting this case I was keeping my silver PSP in a stocking cap or Smartwool sock. Worked just as well :)
Customer Review: Great soft-shell case, doesn't zip up though
I ultimately chose a pouch over other cases because no other cases seemed to really be ideal, especially for the PSP Slim. I got a separate UMD holder so really all I needed was for something that protected the PSP itself while traveling. This case certainly does the job well. At first I was disappointed because I somehow thought this had a zipper on it, and it doesn't - it's just a sleeve. However, the PSP Slim fits snugly in the sleeve and doesn't slide out. I had it packed unsecurely in a suitcase on vacation and the unit stayed in the sleeve no problem. Since that's exactly what I needed it to do, I'm pleased with the case. Still would have liked a zipper though.

VANGUARD NOBLE 17 Noble Series Gaming Case (6.5" x 1" x 3") Gives added protection to gaming devices without being too cumbersome; Front pocket; For use with PSP(TM); Inside dim: 6.5" x 1" x 3"; Hook "Noble Series Gaming Case (6.5"" x 1"" x 3"")"
Customer Review: A better soft case than sony's offering.
When it comes to PSP cases your best bet is always a hard case like Logitech's Play Gear Pocket for instance. BUT, if you are using D-Pad covers or a special edition cases (fits like a second skin) like the one that came with Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops pre-orders, then you'll have trouble fitting it in. Sony's soft case offering is ok but is a bit tight and leaves your PSP open on one end. So this was my issue and I decided to find another soft case that would work for me. This case can hold my PSP and all the extras I put on it fine. It's a little tight but not the point where the analog stick can pop off (like in the Sony soft case). The huge velcro flap keeps the PSP nice and sealed but your psp sticks out the top just a little. Which isn't such a bad thing if you are using your PSP's MP3 player but you want to keep the case inside a bag or something or if you want to charge your PSP without taking it out of the case. It also has a hook and velcro belt loop on the back of it. The flap also has a ring on it (so you can dangle something like a soft cloth screen cleaner for instance). The best extra feature about the case is the single umd slot. I used to carry around all my games in a Gamecube disc case but I would probably only switch to one other game while I was out. Having just a spare game in that slot is really benificial and keeps carrying all the extras down. HOWEVER. Even without the extras on my PSP, trying to cram earbud headphones or anything else, into the case wouldn't be a great suggestion. It's strictly meant to hold the psp. This is a terrific soft case. I recommend it to any PSP owner who is tired of that flimsy case Sony gave us.

Joytech PSP Armorlie Case

Serious protection for your PSP
Customer Review: A pretty good buy, if you're willing to work with it
I recently bought the Armorlite case for my PSP because the other case I had from Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops didn't quite fit - and at first I had that problem with the Armorlite brand as well. I have the latest generation of PSP (as of 11/2006), and the back piece that opens to insert the UMD was just slightly too big. When the Armorlite case is on, the back can't pop open to insert games, and I couldn't pry it out. I had to take the Armorlite off to switch disks. However, my boyfriend has the older generation PSP with the all-in-one D-pad (2005), and his back panel is slightly smaller, so I'm sure it would fit just fine. Luckily, using my Dremmel and some patience, I was able to slightly sand down the top part of the case that rests against that panel, and the back opens easily now with the case on. I do like how thick the plastic is; it seems much sturdier than some of the other clear protectives I've seen, but it doesn't bother me when using the controls. It also covers the screen, a nice feature that many cases don't have, and is clear enough not to be noticeable. Small scratches have begun to show up on the case as well, which either tells me that it's a good thing I have my PSP protected, or that the Armorlite scratches easily. More than likely it's a little of both, but I don't think it's anything that some plastic scratch remover won't be able to get rid of. The case comes in a few different pieces that hinge and snap together, so there's not multiple pieces that you have to put on individually. Rather it all snaps around the system in one solid chunk, no stickers required. Overall I really like my Armorlite case, and think it's a good deal for the price. The only drawbacks are the way it fits for newer PSPs; and also trying to find a carrying case that will fit it, as the plastic is thick and makes the system a little chunkier than normal. I haven't found one that's perfect for me just yet.

Customer Review: Not that great
As the previous poster said, the PSP has contours and this screen protector will not stick to the edges. Trust me, it does not look good that way and will be a bother to you. I ended up throwing this away within a month and bought a HORI screen protector which i was more satisfied with. The HORI protector only covers the screen but that's all you need in my opinion. And with the slims coming out, the JAVO screen protector will end up covering the speakers which you might not want to do (unless they come out with a redesigned one).
Customer Review: shoulda just got one that covers ONLY the screen
I was really interested in getting one that covered the entire face of the PSP and this one looked good. But the thing is, the PSP has contours (duh, shoulda figured) so the protector doesn't stick to the edges, or around the buttons and everwhere there is labelling (like "SONY", "POWER" or the playstation emblem) there is an air bubble. The edges won't stick very well at all and now there is dust and [...] underneath it. I'll probably end up cutting off everything other than the stuff covering the screen itself. Other than that, it is very clear and the clarity and protection is great, but it does turn the rich black of the PSP to having a grayer tint, which is kind've expected from putting a layer of plastic on top of it.

Customer Review: good delivery
The service is good, but if the product can be made more dedicated, that would be better.
Customer Review: Great for what it does
As the product discription implies, this product is a skin for your PSP2000. As a skin, this product works great. The texture of the skin feels good on your hands and the bumbs placed on the back side of the skin help keep your grip if you are prone to sweaty hands. The product is easy to apply and remove and easy to wash. The skin adds no noticeable weight to the product and prevents your PSP2000 from being scratched. As a case for your PSP, this product lacks. Their is no screen protection and no drop protection. If you are worried about dropping your PSP and damaging it, this product alone will not ease your worries. The only CON is found with this product is that it completely blocks the low-battery light. This can be easily rectified by using a pen to mark where the light should be, removing the case from your PSP (very important), than poking a hole in the skin. If you can't stand adding a lot of weight to your PSP from a case, I would recommend buying this skin and a peel-on screen protector such a PSP HORI Protective Filter.

Customer Review: Essential for Any RHCP Fan
This DVD is simply amazing. It contains the band's live performance at Slane Castle in Ireland, their first concert series after the release of "By the Way." In the concert they perform the bulk of their songs from both "By the Way" and "Californication." They also do a cover of a Ramone's song, "Havana Affair." Between songs the band jams out and even does a couple of other covers, including the timeless "Maybe." Flea even gets a little of the spotlight for himself with a Trumpet solo during the encore. The band finishes up the concert with three hits off "Blood Sugar Sex Magik:" "Give it Away," "Under the Bridge," and "Power of Equality." They also perform "Californication" during their encore at the end of the DVD. If you remotely enjoyed any of the albums or songs mentioned here, you will forever be pleased by watching this timeless performance of one of the greatest bands of the alternative era.
Customer Review: Buy it.
I'm someone who is mostly stuck in 70's music - but these guys remind me of the great 70's bands with their own style and energy. Not so long ago a local radio station that plays mostly 70's and 80's songs played "Otherside" a few times, and I thought: damn, who are these guys? After listening to their to their body of work, I was hooked. This video is a great live summary of their work up to '03. Buy it.

PSP Face Armor/Disk Jackets

PSP Face armor and disk jackets / Protective flip-top hard shell cover / Acts as glare protector / Matching glossy UMD disk jackets / System polish cloth
Customer Review: Should Have Been Part of the PSP
Before I purchased the Face Armor, I was debating between it and Logitech's PlayGear Pocket. I finally settled on the Face Armor because I wanted something that would protect my PSP's screen without adding too much bulk (the PSP is large enough as it is and adding more bulk would almost make it un-pocketable). The PlayGear Pocket simply added too much bulk. I was a little wary of the Face Armor because of the reviewers who noted that the Face Armor blocked the PSP's USB port. In the end, I decided that, for me, the benefit of the slim design outweighed that possible negative. Upon receiving my Face Armor, I was plased to see that there must have been a redesign of the unit as the USB port was NOT blocked whatsoever. The unit installs with two simple thumb screws and is easy to remove if you so need. The included disk jackets were not something I particularly cared about when purchasing the Face Armor, but they have come in handy when travelling and not wanting to fill my portable game bag with UMD/PSP cases. All in all, I highly recommend the Face Armor. This is something that the PSP should have just had built-in from the start to protect that gorgeous screen.
Customer Review: Not bad...Awesome customer support
After reading all the reviews I'm wondering if we are talking about the same product. I had mine for about 18 months and took it with me on a deployment to Katrina in NO(that was interesting) Anyway the cover held up good. Slammed it shut and had it in my BDU cargo packet a lot of the time. The hinge did break after a while but I emailed Pelican...they sent one back with several UMD holders no questions asked and paid the postage as well. I really like it because I can access everything while it protects the screen and front. Guess the logitech case is good but I like to switch memory sticks frequently etc so I will still use the pelican. Wish they made the thing in indestructible stainless steel...now that would be awesome.

Customer Review: Great product
THese speakers are attractive, small enough to port around, and have a great sound for the price. I'm a casual listener, not going for the "surround sound" deal with my Ipod. It makes no difference to me whether i can dock my Ipod on my speakers or not. I have an Igo charger and for me it's just as easy to plug that in or let my Ipod run off the battery for a while. That's what it's for. I wanted speakers I could take on trips with me. I chose these speakers primarily because they have both battery and electric power capabilities. I use them all the time and I could not be happier with them. They are loud enough for my preferences (espeically since they are so small) and always sound good. I highly recommend this product for the casual listener who wants something attractive and portable.
Customer Review: It soundz good
I went to FYE in manhattan & luckily i had my PSP & i plugged this little thing to the PSP. It sounded OK without the 3D setting but with the 3d setting sound AWESOME!!! I would recommend it if ur not lookin 4 summtin so expensive i liked it.... but i like the Logitech Speakers better

Customer Review: broke PSP memory stick slot & software didn't work with Vista
The physical dimensions of the media stick is slightly larger than the standard Sony memory stick and got stuck in the PSP. I had to use tweezers to get it out. Now my PSP will not read the memory stick that came with the PSP unless I press it with my fingernail and hold it in the while it reads the data -- which is tricky and annoying because it activates the eject and pops out. The software also didn't work. I'm using a PC with Vista. The program started to work and then froze. I tried uninstalling it reinstalls to the same frozen screen. The instructions are also sketchy, they refer you to the internet to download programs to convert your dvds into a format that can be transfered. I mistakingly thought that was the purpose of the software I was buying. I don't know if the data cable works because now the card slot is broken and I don't have the software to transfer the media. Even with the low price, this was a very bad purchase.
Customer Review: Excellent product at a ridiculously good price.
When first viewing this, I thought it was too good to be true. To get a 2 GB memory card individually for $19.99 is unheard of, to me anyway. Everyone I saw is at least double. Now, to include a 2 GB memory card in a media pack along with a disk and usb cable for $19.99...well, I had to see it to believe it. Well, believe it my friends. Everything is as advertised. Set-up was fast and easy. Would definately recommend this product. Excellent value...

Customer Review: Wish I would have read these reviews...
I sure wish I would have read the last guy's review, before purchasing this product. I actually purchased the product, but the outside of the box says "can't duplicate" copyrighted DVD's. I also belong to an online Rental service (no, not Neflix, the other guys) and was planning to do the same thing as Mr. Sacramento (hey do you take the Sacramento commute train to the Bay Area?) But, I returned the product, before trying what he does. I get about 5 new movies every week or so, from my online rental service company, and was hoping to save time by watching my movies on the go. I agree, the UMD format is dead, with this type of product. I wish that Blockbuster or Hollywood video rented UMD's, but you know it will never happen. Ohh, well! Another Sony software format, down the drain! Peace, homies!

Customer Review: It sort of works...
I bought mine on the cheap from a Sam Goody. Good things: It charges the PSP in the car. It does play sound via the radio... Bad things: ... but it can't seem to charge and play at the same time without horrible interference. Figuring that I couldn't do much worse, I pulled the power cord out while leaving the headphone plug for the receiver in. Most of the interference cleared up (although not all) Buzzing sound even with power cord out. This buzzing sound isn't terrible - it's kind of like if you have a radio channel with a little interference. It might truly be the backlight like the other review said - I usually change tracks a lot, so I'm sure my backlight was never out. It did play music from the PSP fairly well, and as I'm betting the receiver is in the cord, the closer you can get said cord to your car's radio antenna, the better off you probably are. I got it on the cheap, so I'll tinker with it and if I get better results with any modifications, I'll post the results. Otherwise, you may want to look at other options.
Customer Review: Did not work for me except as a charger.
I purchased this product and found out after I bought it that 2 of the 3 frequencys are taken by radio stations in my city. The one that was not, was bracketed by the others so that reception was poor. Also, something about the PSP does not work with this device without interference. When my backlight was on, the interference was horrible. All of these could have been due to the "electronic accoustics" of my car or city, but I did want to warn everyone that this may not work for you. I picked mine up at EB Games in Chattanooga, TN, USA. It does not work here, other than as a charger.

Customer Review: Just about like a Bose.
This is one of the best sounding speaker systems ever made. I've had it for 2 days now and I think it compares to a Bose sound system, the bass is terrific. People have complained that it doesn't work with the PSP-2000 but there is an auxiliary audio in that works just as fine! People have also complained that it doesn't have any sound when you use the auxiliary audio in, what happened to them was that they had the volume down to low on there PSP or other portable device. Just make sure that you turn the volume all the way up on your portable device when you plug it in. Then you can mess with the volume on the remote to get it right. The play/pause and all the other remote buttons don't work though, because it's not plugged into the dock (That's the only con of this sound system). I have turned it up as loud as I could take it, it got to the point the house was thumping with bass (Try that when you get one). As I said before this is one of the best sounding docks ever made, you can use it with any portable device (Zune, PSP, iPOD or any other MP3 player). This dock is sweet and I would recommend it to anyone wanting great sound.
Customer Review: PSP Psyclone Nodus Sound System
Well I enjoy playing on the road since I am a Truck Driver. I thought about buying another PS3 and taken my old PS3 with me so when I stop at a truck stop that has a system like IdleAire I would be getting onto the internet. Well I thought it does have a great sound but it didn't mention that the new PSP's like the 2000's. You can only hook it to the AUX, which is great but I am going to keep it cause plugging it in my AC/DC tv makes me have great sound. This is more for the yearly versions of the PSP's. It should have stated that fact. So I will keep looking for a hook up for the PSP Models 2000's.

Memoirs of a Geisha [UMD for PSP]

Chicago director Rob Marshall's pretty but empty (or pretty empty) film has all the elements of an OscarÂ® contender: solid adaptation (from Arthur Golden's bestseller), beautiful locale, good acting, lush cinematography. But there's something missing at the heart, which leaves the viewer sucked in, then left completely detached from what's going on.

It's hard to find fault with the fascinating story, which traces a young girl's determination to free herself from the imprisonment of scullery maid to geisha, then from the imprisonment of geisha to a woman allowed to love. Chiyo (Suzuka Ohgo), a young girl with curious blue eyes, is sold to a geisha house and doomed to pay off her debt as a cleaning girl until a stranger named The Chairman (Ken Watanabe) shows her kindness. She is inspired to work hard and become a geisha in order to be near the Chairman, with whom she has fallen in love. An experienced geisha (Michelle Yeoh) chooses to adopt her as an apprentice and to use as a pawn against her rival, the wicked, legendary Hatsumomo (Gong Li). Chiyo (played as an older woman by Ziyi Zhang), now renamed Sayuri, becomes the talk of the town, but as her path crosses again and again with the Chairman's, she finds the closer she gets to him the further away he seems. Her newfound "freedom" turns out to be trapping, as men are allowed to bid on everything from her time to her virginity.

Some controversy swirled around casting Chinese actresses in the three main Japanese roles, but Zhang, Yeoh and Gong in particular ably prove they're the best for the part. It's admirable that all the actors attempted to speak Japanese-accented English, but some of the dialogue will still prove difficult to understand; perhaps it contributes to some of the emotion feeling stilted. Geisha has all the ingredients of a sweeping, heartbreaking epic and follows the recipe to a T, but in the end it's all dressed up with no place to go.--Ellen A. Kim
Customer Review: not true to the book
why can't movie makers leave the story AS TOLD by the AUTHOR of the book? why do they think we are interested in their own little spin? really, now ....just stay true to the story!
Customer Review: The colours are superb
Finally in High Definition. The colours are great. The only sad thing is that the Japanese track is not available in this version.

PSP PlayGear Stealth Earbuds

With the PlayGear Stealth Earphones for PSP gives powerful and precise audio. The PlayGear Stealth uses 9mm neodymium drivers to amplify the sound quality. Listen to serious audio, in a compact size that begs to be taken on the road!
Customer Review: Not the best, but a very affordable set of in-ear earphones
I've bought this pair of earphones last year and loved them. It was the first real pair of in-ear earphones I've ever owned and since then, have been sold on the technology ever since. Pros: -Sound was pretty clear; Good lows, mid-range, and highs and very balanced Treble and Bass. -Bass wasn't too noticeable on PSP but bass was very deep when connected to an iPod. It always sounded clear, even with bass. -Treble was very good, considering they're pretty cheap. They almost sound like higher end earphones Cons: -For me, the fit was never perfect. Sometimes, when I have it in my ear, it would fall out. It took a while for me to get the fit right and even then, the earphones would fall out. -Again, fit was not good. Even when I had finally managed to get the earphones in my ear, I couldn't have them in my ears for very long. So in short: when wearing these earphones, use in moderation. -Another problem was with the earbuds themselves. I've found that they had a tendency to fall off the little "flange" on the earphones themselves. It is an easy fix with a small amount, and I mean "small amount", Rubber Cement, allowed to dry on the phones (Note: Do not attach 'buds to 'phones while cement is drying and be careful not to get the cement in the phones themselves as this will greatly reduce sound quality) So, even though these earphones are reasonable, they're not easy to find. For some strange reason, they (game stores) have since discontinued this fine product. Would I buy these earphones again? I wouldn't have to buy any type of in-ear earphones if only a rat didn't chew up my damn Stealths!
Customer Review: Mediocre!
These earbuds make me feel like I'm listening to music - underwater. This feature would be nice if my songs were meant to sound like someone's drowning me, but a large majority of them are meant to be heard above the surface. These headphones always make me believe I have a few too many ounces of earwax too, because my inner ear gets suddenly warm, and gooey. They're not that great.

http://www.nuritech.us/sony-psp-slim-leather-black.html This case rocks and it definitely looks like its way more than 20 bucks!! I would definitely recommend this to all my psp fan friends!!
Customer Review: Awesome PSP Slim Case
When I purchased my PSP a month ago, I realize I needed to protect my investment fast. I found it hard to find a suitable case at my local stores and game shops. I didn't just want a carrying case that everyone was selling, I wanted something that would protect the PSP from scratches, dust, dings, etc during everyday play. After searching online, I found the Joytron System Skin Case - Leather Black on Amazon. The product is sturdy and smooth. It was simple to attach, so long as you aligned the little brackets. It doesn't make my PSP Slim feel bulky. All ports, buttons, and memory stick compartment are accessible, and even the UMD cover fits snuggly. The product even came with a stand that you can either clip to a key chain, or to the PSP itself (where you can put the wrist band) although clipping it there is snug. The stand allows you to watch movies without having to hold the PSP in your hands. This case is designed to be a body glove for the PSP--exactly what I was looking for. Now, I wouldn't go throwing my PSP on the ground with the case on just to test out it's sturdiness, but it will do the job of keeping scratches, dust, finger prints, etc off your PSP. This is definitely an excellent buy for me, and for anyone else who owns a PSP slim--for those of you who have the fat PSP, don't fret, Joytron also offers this case version for sale as well. Oh, one more thing, the shipping on this product was fast. I received my product 3 days after I ordered it!

PSP Tech Armor

Protect your PSP with the sleekest hard case yet, the Tech Armor from Nyko. The Tech Armor's metal casing and form fitting design provides heavy duty protection against scratches, dirt and drops without adding excess bulk. The skin tight case wraps around and cushions the PSP with its neoprene lined interior for added support and protection. The Tech Armor is lightweight, small, and perfect for travel.
Customer Review: Agree with 4 out 5 reviewer
I agree with the reviewer that said 4 out of 5 stars, and with his review. Have this to say about the 1 out of 5 star review. I have this case, has never scratched my PSP. Perhaps it was user error, keep in mind they didn't mention where the scratch was, nor how the scratch got there. This is the slimest case I have found for the PSP for when you want to protect the PSP, put it in a jacket pocket, and not carry it around in a gigantic case like most out there. This case is much like the metal cases that have been made for PDA's of which I have 2. I would recommend this product if, you want a slim case that protects and does nothing more. For example no space for extra memory cards, or extra battery life as other cases provide, but at the sametime no extra bulk either.
Customer Review: A great product, although slight modification neccesary
Nyko did a good job with this. This case is, by far, the sleekest, and most protective and form-fitting case I've seen. I bought this to replace my Logitech polycarbonate one which, while protecting it well from shock, did not keep dust from infiltrating inside. The one downside to this case is lack of a notch to accomodate a wrist strap to pass through the closure. However, this is easily fixed with a rat tail file and a few minutes. I added a half moon notch on each edge where the string for the strap now comfortably rests. The previous reviewer accomplished something I can't possibly imagine. The metal latch on the lower half of the case has at least 2mm of clearance from my psp when it's inside. Even pushing on it will not make it touch the psp. And so what if it does? It's metal, just flex it outwards a bit. A bulky plastic case is liable to break, after which, it's useless. A metal case, like a car fender, can be easily be repaired (with a bit of talent of course). Grab this if you ever see it, you won't regret it, and it's a good bargain. Found this at EBGames for a tenner.

PSP Store & Protect Kit Blue

Holds & protects up to 9 UMD movies with fan-style access; Rubber padding holds & protects PSP(TM) hardware from damage
Customer Review: Best PSP Case 4 My Money!
There are MANY PSP cases out there. Most of them I have read the reviews on Amazon. However, for 15 bucks, I personally found no better deal. Many people bought (or at least reviewed) Logitech's case (which is nice.) Yet, was much to simple. No place to hold games and I do not believe a place for excess memory cards (even though I plan to own only one.) The feature that allows it to be at an angle for movie viewing is a nice touch though. But I am not reviewing their case, am I. Score's case is a sturdy, hardcover/padded blue case. It even has a very cool little "Score" logo on it. It can hold 4 UMDs in the case itself, along with 2 memory cards. The PSP itself is held in place with elastic on each side. The left strap covers the right d-pad button a tad, but can be pushed over. The right strap covers the square button a little more, but again, it can be moved to the side as well. Even the shoulder buttons and power switch can be accessed. So it is very possible to play the system while in the case, but is a little bit inconvienent. It does fit VERY snuggly within the case though. Oh, I almost forgot, the case has a little hook for attaching the matching UMD case, a seperate screen wipe, or can be used to attach it to a bag. It even has the strap on its back to put it on your belt. As I mentioned above, the pack comes with a matching UMD case, which holds 5 disks. Even more, a while plastic clear case which holds 2 more. If my many years of elementary math do me any justice, that is 11 UMDs, if you want to lug all three items around. Now, with my movies and games, I am currently at 12 UMDs, but do not intend to carry ALL movies around ALL the time. Now the cons. No screen protectors or screen wipe are included, but these items can be purchased very cheaply from other companies (possible from Score, I have not checked.) Since it is a case for PSP and UMDs only, there is no way to store a charger or headphones. I figure I can buy a nice little camera/camcorder bag to hold misc items. Now I recommend you still do the research to find a case that fits your needs, but if you need a padded case for PSP and UMDs I believe this is the best PSP carrier for your money! Happy hunting gamers!

Customer Review: WraptorSkinz makes quite a nice skin for the PSP
Opening the Amazon box today I found two of my skins I ordered. One for my PSP and one for my DS. I've yet to try the DS one since it's back in my tent and I'm at work right now (I'm in Iraq). The skins come inside a little plastic bag which didnt really bother me since the box protected it. The skin for the PSP comes in 4 pieces. One big one for the front and 3 little sectional little ones for the back. Also along with it comes a screen protector and a little plastic pieces to help squeeze out any air bubbles. All the buttons and holes are cut out, but you have to peel them off which was no trouble at all. Even the lights and speakers got cut outs. Peelin off the pieces from the main sticker was pretty easy. I had one hang up, but it didnt damage the main skin at all. The skin itself is also a little thick in a good way... such as letting you know it's a somewhat quality product and not some sticker you get from a 25 cent junk machine as you leave your grocery store. The skin itself is pretty easy to apply especially if you have steady hands... which I dont..lol. All the buttons have free range of motion also if you put it on correctly. Also the screen is fully viewable. Not one bit of the screen is covered by the skin. The back is of course a lot easier to put on. Just 3 big stickers. Hardest part is making sure you line them up right so they dont look stupid. The UMD door also has free range of motion. I really like this skin and how good it looks on my silver PSP Slim.
Customer Review: a must have
This is a great purchase, a definite must for psp owners. Easy to attach, doesn't effect gameplay, and does a great job protecting your PSP. My husband has put his thru the ringer and his psp is good as new. Protect your investment, purchase this product.

PSP Ultimate Sound System

PSP Ultimate Sound System
Customer Review: Good sound, but TERRIBLE design
If you look at the picture, the PSP appears to be floating just above the speakers. In fact, the PSP does not actually "dock" into the speakers. It slides down a pair of grooves on the side, but then the PSP sits in the mount very crooked. The reason is that instead of docking into the speakers, you have to use a 1ft. audio cable to attach the PSP to the speakers. The cable has a right-angle plug on the end that goes into the PSP, but the plug is too big to allow the PSP to sit properly in the mount, so it sits crooked at about a 15 degree angle. Needless to say this completely ruins the entire point of using this device to watch videos on the PSP. The speakers themselves sound pretty good for such a small, light package. The whole system is so lightweight that it feels flimsy and you would expect the sound to be terrible, but it isn't. The sound is better than even a $100 iPod speaker system I recently purchased. So in short, if you want to hold the PSP in your hands and attach it to a great set of speakers, then this unit is perfect for you. If you, however, want to mount your PSP into a unit so that you can watch video and have good sound, then this unit is completely worthless.
Customer Review: Nice 2.1. Would've been better if...
I thought of buying this set and take a risk with the somewhat negative feedback from the first review. Well, I bought one and it was better than I expected it to be! First off, It sounds great for such a small 2.1 system! Got no buzzing or hissing problems either. =D It comes with a 3.5mm stereo extension cable to attach your earphone output to the speaker system. Next comes the Form Feature. Not a great looker compared to other products but it's portable and light and the system folds well, tucking the mini sub woofer between the stereo speakers. It comes with a good enough bag to keep it in. =D The Power Source. You can use four AA batteries if you want to take it on trips or use an AC adapter for tabletop viewing. Energizers anyone? =D Compatibility. It supports both Phat and Slim PSPs! Plusses here! =D Now the downside, It doesn't come with an AC adapter but you can use your PSP AC. =O It doesn't charge your PSP. If you have another AC adapter, then you can. =P It attracts fingerprints like your PSP. =O Overall, I give it 4 stars. If it had an AC adapter included, I'd give it 4.5. I'm glad I took the risk. =D

PSP 4 In 1 Charger with Battery

4 in 1 Charger w/ Battery for PSP. This compact power pack features both a home & car power adaptor, a USB power connection to charge your PSP, digital camera, or other USB-powered handheld electronics, a battery charger and an extra PSP battery.
Customer Review: Works perfectly
Bought this at Gamestop about 6 months ago. I leave in the car to power and recharge the psp while driving and use the AC feature in hotels. Battery works perfectly and stays charged for many hours of use. The retracking charge cable keeps out of the way when not in use although I wish they'd made it longer. The charger also has LED indicators on the top to let you know the charging status. When I saw the product in Amazon for $20 I ordered 2 more for about the same price as a single Sony battery.
Customer Review: Buyer Beware
I first saw this product in a game store. I went asking for a replacement battery for my psp and they said they had 1 left but the package had been opened and it was used. Supposedly the buyer didnt realize it would not work on a slim psp. I don't really believe that story anymore. I believe most early adopters of the slim psp are savvy enough to know/check the difference. I really hate taking things back so I asked that they charge the battery in the store since it was already opened and I would come back in an hour. After an hour of charging it would not even flicker in my psp. I didn't buy it. I believed their story and went to another game store a month later and bought the only psp battery they carried, this one. I took this home and charged it 24 hours this time. I went to put it in my psp but the battery will not fit. It's curvy on the side that goes into the psp instead of flat which means it does move around and is too fat to get the cover on normally. Psp battery covers are already awkward without this oversize battery. I worked on getting this in without breaking the cover for almost an hour. I finally got it half on, enough to stay shut but was hard on the plastic. I flip the switch and the battery wont even power the psp up. No flicker or anything. I do have an official sony battery that powers up my system fine. This battery is crap. Now here I am on amazon to get an official battery that will work. In summary, the battery does not fit into the psp unit on some of these due to poor design. 2 out of 2 units I have tested of these do not hold a charge. It's a great idea for a charger but just does not work.

PSP Go Max

Plugs is just like your regular PSP battery but does not need a charger Acts like a regular batteryfits right under your battery cover 2-4 hours of gameplay, music or movies Uses 3 AAA batteries
Customer Review: Item has worked flawlessly for me and has been invaluable on long trips
I had a very different experience. First off, the battery worked fine in terms of remaining connected. I never had any "flashing" problems. It never "spazed out." It worked as any PSP battery would with the unit functioning normally. I was able to put the unit on standby and resume as normal and get a perfectly good (and accurate) "charge remaining" indicator. I use it regularly on business trips an usually carry 9 or so NiMH AAAs. If power runs out, I can always pick up some alkalines. In the one year that I've used it, I've never had a problem and I've been very happy with it. That being said, you cannot recharge the Go Max while it is in the unit, rechargeable batteries or not. But then again, I never had any reason to expect that it would.
Customer Review: Last Resort
There's only one place you can still find this battery. Ebay sells it for about 12 bucks. Not bad for a psp battery that can be replaced by alkaline batteries right? Wrong. When I first opened this product I installed the included triple A batteries, popped the cover on, and put it in my psp. But when I tried turning it on there was no response. After a few minutes of fiddling with the batteries I finally decide to replace the crappy included batteries with some quality Duracells. This time it worked, but my psp would constantally turn on and off. I once again took the battery out of the housing (which is somewhat difficult) and tried turning the AAA batteries to get a better connection with the springs. And once again I put the Go Max battery in and turned the psp on. This time it worked and I was able to test some music and video with the battery. The psp didn't shut off and spaz out this time, but I don't know about in the future. All in all this battery isn't everything you'd expect. Like you can't recharge it (even with rechargeable alkaline batteries), you can't put the psp on standby mode (it'll start back up at the main screen, not the last point in your game etc...), and you can't tell how much battery is left by the psp battery meter. So if I were you, I'd buy a car adapter and a second Sony brand battery. Even though I think i'm going to keep this battery and use it as a last resort for an airplane or something, I'm still not satisfied with Datel and their PSP Go Max battery.

Customer Review: Great case for the 2000 psp
I got this case after I read that the Sony version of the Logitech case for the 1000 series was bad quality and I have to say that was a good decision. Everything is accesiable with the case on, the memory card door is hard a little to open with the case on, but doable. I only had a problem with one set of headphones not fitting and that was one with a mic, but my Panasinic's fit fine. After I put the case on, i noticed there was some dust that I missed when putting it one so I tried to take it back off to clean it but the case wouln't come off, I like that becuase if I drop it it won't come off that easily, but some people my not like that. It is not a dark as the pics show so Kratos comes through nicely on my psp. The only problem that I have with the case (and why it didn't get 5 start) is that I got the case so I would not have to get a screen protector and play with the screen lid down. But the thing is so easy to scratch, even with the cloth that came with it. I don't know what the differece is between the screen lid and the rest of the case but it is the only part that scratched. But even with that I would not trade this case for any other. If you want a case that you can play the psp 2000 while its on, this is the one to get.
Customer Review: No accessories for you!
The plastic used on this case is almost unbreakable. I know this because I tried cutting a hole in the top so as to attach the PSP Camera! I ended up ruining the case in the process as two of the "latches" that hold it together are located right on the area I was cutting. Really, the case would have gotten 5 stars if it didn't completely cover up the screw-holes for the USB. Also, only Sony brand headphone cables can be guaranteed to fit into the headphone jack. Most others are slightly too wide and bump against the plastic case which causes them to pull out slightly.

Who Put the 'M' in Manchester? [UMD for PSP]

A triumphant homecoming this show from 2004 saw ex-Smiths star Morrissey returning to his native Manchester to play a sold out concert on his birthday. Having spent the year basking in the glory afforded to his comeback album YOU ARE THE QUARRY the inimitable singer undertook a lengthy world tour in support of the record. Naturally a few old classics were thrown into the mix including a few old Smiths songs such as "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" and "Shoplifters of the World Unite." Both Morrissey and the audience clearly delight in the occasion and with Moz sounding better than he has done in a while WHO PUT THE 'M' IN MANCHESTER? is a great document of his remarkable return to the global stage.Format: UMD Genre: MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS Rating: NR UPC: 060768842991 Manufacturer No: 842991
Customer Review: The makings of a legend...
The devotion and adoration of Morrissey is clearly displayed during the performance of "Everyday is like Sunday" : Struggling fans are in constant mode to get close to this idol. One young man in the front, while being restrained by two security chaps, makes eye contact with Morrissey,with arm fully stretched; the camera shows the tormented man's face "Please,Please...". Accomodating Morrissey works past the guards to help him. Managing a split-second, euphoric touch/handshake the fan then points to Morrissey (you're the man, you're the man!)The many surrounding audience witness to this accomplishment give full cheers as the victor is carried away. Maybe this scene is repeated at every concert, but it really makes the video complete for me. Morrissey at 47: misunderstood as ever but will be worshipped to the end of time by the ones who know. Viva Hate
Customer Review: Mancunian crooner lives on
The former Smiths leader is aging well (musically, at least) and is writing as well as he ever has done during his solo career. His lyrics are still politically edgy, as witnessed in the Far Off Places sequence, "if your god bestows protection upon you, and if the U. S. A. doesn't bomb you". The setting for this video is utterly appropriate. What better way to celebrate his birthday than a return to adoring Manchester fans? I found the brief interview with a couple who had travelled from San Diego for the occasion particularly poignant. I'm personally not that rabid, though I did fly to San Francisco to see him for the first time, all those years ago. The set is a lovely mix of old and new with plenty of Smiths tunes. One could easily argue he sings old Smith stuff better than ever, and he's certainly smoother. Smooth isn't exactly what the Smiths were a about though, is it? Anyway, Who Put the M in Manchester is probably the best live recording in recent memory and a must have for die hard fans. Even the teenagers, who are somehow compelled to argue he's nothing since the death of the Smiths, will find plenty to like.

Customer Review: The first of the new wave of martial arts flicks.
How do you sum up Crouching? Brilliant, touching, amazing!!! Incredible acrobatics, incredible scenery, an awesome script and great actors and martial artists. What's not to like about this movie? Not my favorite, I liked Hero and Curse of the Golden Flower better but for different reasons. Still, a must see if your new to the recent wave of martial arts flicks. A word of advice, watch it with the subtitles on and not the English voiceovers as they are terribly done.
Customer Review: Exquisite fantasy
Crouching Tiger is not really a Kung Fu movie. The fight sequences are so stylized and interjected with such gravity defying feats such flying and fantastical jumping, and flips; the fight scenes become almost a 3D ballet. I liked it, but don't come into this movie expecting Bruce Lee action sequences. The fight scenes are more of a dance. The fights are mainly sword fights, although there are a few hand-to-hand battles as well. The acting is superb. The story line is more of a fairy tale than straight fiction, but the movie works superbly well. Michelle Yeoh's physical acting are displayed well as well as her emotional range. Chow is great as the swordsman and Zhang Ziyi is very good as well. The movie tells the story of several stories of love, of revenge, of loyalties, and of duty. It concerns duty to one's family, to society and to one's self. A fairy tale is used to tie the plot lines together. The movie has a great medieval setting. The scenery switches from deserts, to Peking, to bamboo forests and mountains. In every case, the views are breathtaking. The bamboo forest fight is very strange, but it works. My wife didn't like the movie because if its fantastical elements, but it is one of the best movies I have seen for a long time. Most kung fu movie have their fantastical elements. I don't know much about the superbit technology, but my DVD looks great and the sound is good too.

PSP Protective Filter

PRODUCT FEATURES:Anti-reflective layer;Hard coated layer;Silicon adhesive layer.
Customer Review: The secret of applying this filter
Many people have problem applying the filter. If you just peel off and apply the sticker directly, you will face the following 3 major problem: 1. Dust particles 2. air bubbles (or known as air pockets, caused by air or dust) 3. Sticker orientation accuracy To solve the above problems, here is the secret and the correct steps, not limited to this PSP filter, in fact, this secret applied to all stickers application. Do the following steps, and you will be amazed with the result. Ingredients: a. The screen protector filter b. Bowl c. hand soap, body shampoo (lotion, etc.. anything alcaline based will do) d. water e. plastic paper credit card sized or smaller which act as your lifter. Optional, use the front/back plastic cover for the sticker will do as well. f. tissue paper Step 1. Wipe the PSP screen clean 2. Fill the bowl with one or two teaspoon amount of hand soap and dilute it with half bowl of water. 3. scoop out the bubbles in the bowl as many as possible. 4. Remove both front and back side of the filter. (remember the up-side) 5. Soak the filter into the bowl and take it out with your plastic paper. (try not to use finger) 6. Apply the filter gently (while it is still little wet) 7. Adjust the filter to the correct position desired. 8. Push the liquid out with a credit card from middle to outside. 9. Wipe any water that squeezed out from the corner of the sticker as soon as soon you see it. 10. If you see dust particle (a small air pocket with a little dust dot in the middle) inside the sticker, lift it up with a plaster paper, remove the dust, and close it back. 11. repeat step 7 to 10 until it is completely dry and up to your desire. If application is not as your desired, remove the sticker, soak it back to the same bowl, clean the sticker to make sure no dust particles with the same way you lean your contact lens, and reapply. (No, you don't have to throw your filter!) Finally you got yourself a perfect application of filter and air bubble-less. This is the same technique as applying tinted film/stickers on glass windows, car windows and wind screen by the car assessories professionals. The only difference is they spray soap water on the filter instead of using a bowl (coz PSP filter is so small compared with filter for tinted glass application) Try it, you will be amazed by the result instead of apply directly without soap water.
Customer Review: Very Good
This product works well if applied right. Follow the instructions; all instructions, for best results. I had no air bubbles, protects really good, easy to clean. Only thing I have a PSP thin and the filter dosent cover the entire screen, there is a little left over on the edges, not very noticeable though. Only thing I dislike, it only comes with one filter.

PlayStation Portable (PSP) Entertainment Pack

Customer Review: All i can say is DUH!!!
dude, you are lacking friends LMAO. you would be in another world you say the nintendo is better than the psp. OMG where are you on this planet earth? yea it has been out for many yrs the nin dc. but come on my bro has it and my psp EATS it. come on man.
Customer Review: Sony Does It Again
A powerhouse of a portable system, the PSP is the most capable of all portable handhelds to date. The Xross Media Bar is second-notch when it comes to organization, I prefer the Xbox 360 blade system personally. Games: This is one of the few points where the PSP falls short. The selection of games is lackluster at best. There are a few good games (like GTA: Vice City Stories or Need for Speed), but the rest I'd probably find boring or not really all that interesting. The PSP is more capable in this regard (custom firmware), but a lot of the stuff that custom firmware used to have is now being dished out by Sony. With the custom firmware, you can emulate DS games, but prepare for it to slow down. Photo: Pictures look absolutely stunning on this thing. HDR looks the best (understandably), but a bunch of stills and backgrounds I found on the internet look freaking amazing on this thing. Music: Another thing that the PSP falls short on. I'm a picky person when it comes to this. The sound quality is decent when you plug this thing into a set of external speakers, but volume falls short. I don't use AVLS (the option that sets a limit on how high you can turn it up) and it still turns up quiet. The sound quality out of the little speakers is not good at all (they boosted the quality in the Slim model by moving the speakers responsible for treble near the top, but still). Video: I haven't watched UMD movies on this thing, but by judging some home-made PSP tutorials that I watched, professional video would look amazing on this. Too bad the sounds not all that great, but I usually manage. Networking: Here's where the PSP shines. Networking on this thing is amazing, with firmware updates you browse the internet, stream internet radio using Shoutcast, and even use Skype (with the newest firmware). You can check Sony's servers for updates through the "Network Update" function on the top of the Settings menu. Of course, you have to be in a WiFi zone, but those are popping up everywhere now. With some games, you can play multiplayer online (Socom comes to mind), and with all multiplayer games, you can link PSPs to smash the heck out of some n00bs, through Ad-Hoc mode. All in all, a good portable developed by Sony.

Customer Review: Intriguing mix of Court Room and chiller
With such a recent plethora of movies based on torture and gore to achieve their chills, it is refreshing to find a movie that retains some intelligence and still manages to get a few spine-chilling moments, with barely a speck of blood or guts to be seen. First and foremost, this is a court room drama. And yet there is an interesting twist, because the subject is one based on belief, not on facts.. and it makes for some interesting moral questions. The movie starts at the tail end of events as the priest is taken into custody. A young woman, Emily Rose, has died in his care following an exorcism. Was it neglect on his part keeping her from medical care for a psychotic epilepsy condition, or were his efforts justified and in fact medical intervention nullified the effects of the exorcism? We are led through the events in flashback throughout the course of the trial, sometimes to eery effect, as the priest refuses to cut a deal and insists on telling Emily's story to a jury. At the centre of the movie is the relationship between Laura Linney's jaded and agnostic defence counsel and her client the priest played by Tom Wilkinson. The two leads play with conviction, but Jennifer Carpenter's physically demanding role of Emily Rose should not be overlooked. Admirably, the tone is not one of full on shocks and scares - there is a neutrality which gives you space to make your own mind up, and yet allow you to see events as the Father Moore and Emily saw them. It's this intelligence towards the subject which sets this apart from most other recent horror movies and makes this worth watching.
Customer Review: Better than the original Exorcist.
I'll admit, I wasn't expecting to enjoy this movie. Oh goody, another Exorcist rip off. WRONG!!! More courtroom drama than horror movie. Just my opinion, it's better than the original exorcist. Here's why, its way more believable, the filmmakers give you the choice to decide whether or not she was possessed or mentally ill. Granted the original exorcist was groundbreaking in many ways and can never be touched. For shock value alone, it will be remembered long after Emily has hit the bargin shelf. Pity, in this day and age it takes more than shock to even get people into the theater. Emily accomplishes this. Too bad the filmmakers took such liberties with the real story. I won't spoil things here but the info is out there online. I had four family members watch this and they are not horror fans and they loved this movie. Less horror, more thriller. Highly recommended, but not for kids. Parents as always, use your common sense.

Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) JAVOScreen Anti Glare Screen Protector, Single

This layer is fully washable, water will not reduce it's ability to stick to your screen. More than just a screen protector, the feature packed JAVOScreen is removable and washable making it a long lasting investment for your device.
Customer Review: Avoid this screen protector. There are better ones out there.
I really like the anti-glare surface of this protector, but since it covers the whole face of the PSP, you get unavoidable air pockets at the edges of the screen. Also the edges of the protector stick out too far and are easy to snag / lift up. It is washable. I got some dust on the sticky side and I was able to wash it off and shake enough water off of it to put the protector on the PSP, but after I got it completely centered I wasn't happy with the edges and the air pockets. I went back to my screen protector that just covers the screen. They could makes this product better by making it two pieces: 1 for the screen and a separate piece for the rest of the PSP.
Customer Review: Finally, something intelligent.
I bought this and love it. It removes a substantial amount of glare, which allows me to play in places with more light without straining my eyes or sacrificing enjoyment. This screen protector is highly translucent, keeping the image clean, but because of the matte finish, also smooths out the image, which is pleasant. It also hides all the light scratches on my screen while protecting it from getting new ones. The screen protector also manages to keep the screen very clean. Dust is never an issue while playing; and leaving fingerprints on the screen is a thing of the past. It isn't without fault though. It isn't especially made for PSP 2000, so I cut it to match the screen size. Since these screen protecters aren't cheap, I tried to be as precise and careful as possible. I bought the 3-pack just in case I messed up the first time though. Applying it correctly the first time is difficult and I had to repositioned it a few times. The problem with that is that dust can and will get onto the sticky side of the screen protector. Thus, it is imperative that you are in a dust free room: maybe a hospital room? If you get dust on the sticky side, it's impossible to remove without contaminating the rest of the surface; and enough dust can be distracting during gameplay. Also, the bubbles around the edges never go away, at least on the PSP 2000. Overall, this product gives me the freedom to play the PSP in more areas. And not-wiping away dust from the screen means I get to focus more on gaming.

Shaun of the Dead [UMD for PSP]

Amazon.com

British horror/comedy Shaun of the Dead is a scream in all senses of the word. Brain-hungry zombies shamble through the streets of London, but all unambitious electronics salesman Shaun (Simon Pegg) cares about is his girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield), who just dumped him. With the help of his slacker roommate Ed (Nick Frost), Shaun fights his way across town to rescue Liz, but the petty concerns of life keep getting in the way: When they're trying to use vinyl records to decapitate a pair of zombies, Shaun and Ed bicker about which bands deserve preservation--New Order they keep, but Sade becomes a lethal frisbee. Many zombie movies are comedies by accident, but Shaun of the Dead is deliberately and brilliantly funny, while still delivering a few delicious jolts of fear. Also featuring the stealthy comic presence of Bill Nighy (Love Actually) and some familar faces from The Office. --Bret Fetzer

From The New Yorker

It is only natural to be scared of zombies, and to prevent them from laying waste to your home. A more relaxing approach, however, is to be bored and vaguely annoyed by them, or, better still, not to notice them in the first place. This is the premise of Edgar Wright's British comedy, which may be responsible for kicking off a new and specialized genre of slacker horror. Shaun (Simon Pegg) lives a supremely uneventful life, which revolves around his girlfriend (Kate Ashfield), his mother (Penelope Wilton), and, above all, his local pub. This gentle routine is threatened when the dead return to life and make strenuous attempts to snack on ordinary Londoners. The finale, in which the pub turns into an Alamo, is the bloodiest, most orthodox, and least witty part of the movie; far sharper are the early scenes in which Shaun wanders happily to the local store along a battered, zombie-dotted street and pulps his attackers with a cricket bat. The central joke is so snappy and well sustained that you barely catch sight of the ominous vision on offer: a country that already feels like death. -Anthony Lane

Customer Review: Get your blunt objects ready...
I hate zombie films; I truly do. But I LOVE "Shaun of the Dead." Quite simply, because it's not *just* about zombies. It's about ridiculously funny, wayward 20-somethings searching for friendship, loyalty, and trying to do the right thing the day all of London gets attacked by throes of the walking dead. As a massive fan of "Spaced," I was so excited when I heard Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright were making a feature-length film. "Shaun of the Dead" did not disappoint me at all. It kept me laughing long after the inital viewing, and I've even tried to incorporate some of its jokes into my everyday language (just as I did after watching "Spaced" several times). So I guess it's pretty clear that I consider Pegg and Wright comic genuises. Even if you're not big on horror movies (believe me, I'm not), if you're a fan of British comedy (as I am to the nines), this is a must-see.
Customer Review: Entertaining!
We found this after we thought "Hot Fuzz" was the funniest thing. So, based on the reviews, bought this and agree that it is funny!

Perfect Blue [UMD for PSP]

Winner - Best Animation Film at Fantasporto 1998 (Portugal) Winner - Public Prize for Best Asian Film at Fant-Asia (Canada) IN THE WORLD OF MAKE BELIEVE - THE PRICE OF FAME - MAY NOT BE WORTH THE COST OF IDENTITY Pop idol singer Mima Kirigoe looks forward to a bright new career after she quits her chart-topping trio to become an actress. But when she accepts a role in a sexually charged murder mystery TV series, someone is not happy with her decision. Mima's life begins to change as she is threatened with disturbing phone calls, faxes and e-mails from a mysterious source. She also discovers alarming web sites describing intimate details and pictures of her new public persona. As she descends into a dangerous state of paranoia, helpless and afraid, some of her associates are now murdered by the enigmatic stalker. Reality and delusion merge into a terrifying world as Mima's innocence is lost and her dreams become nightmares. Will she be next? In the tradition of great suspense masters, director Satoshi Kon (Memories/Millenium Actress), special advisor Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira) and Madhouse Studios (Ninja Scroll), bring Yoshikazu Takeuchi's thrilling suspense novel to the screen, in a tour de force that brings animation to a bold new level. A brilliant psychological thriller which breaks the mold of anime films, Perfect Blue was conceived in 1993 when Yoshikazu Takeuchi (Author) and Koichi Okamoto (Original Producer) approached Rex Entertainment with a 90-minute live-action video project based on Takeuchi's novel. Production was delayed during early 1994 due to the Kobe earthquake and the decision to animate the film was made. However, given the unique nature of the project it was agreed to employ the best names currently working in the industry. Okamoto and Takeuchi employed Hiroaki Inoue as line producer, who in turn approached Madhouse Studios with the project. Although skeptical of what he initially described as "no more than a reckless idea", Masao Maruyama (Mad House, CEO) was inspired by the passion of both producer and author and decided to back the project. Word of the forthcoming production reached Katsuhiro Otomo who had previously illustrated Takeuchi's work. Otomo read the script and suggested that Satoshi Kon (Jojo's Bizarre Adventures, Roujin Z); a supervisor on his latest project (Memories) should direct the feature. Perfect Blue premiered at the `Fant-Asia Film Festival' where it proved an instant hit. Its initial screening sold out within 30 minutes and two further shows were scheduled in order to meet public demand. As a result, Perfect Blue was awarded the Public prize for `Best Asian Film'. The impressive imagery within the film found it's way into both Darren Aronofsky's Requiem for a Dream (2000) and Madonna's 2001 Drowned World concert tour.
Customer Review: Worth seeing
A dark story with psychological twist in it. Well done for an anime, but not for children. Adult themes and violence. Enjoyed the movie, it constantly makes you evaluate if the main character is in reality or fantasy.
Customer Review: I have no idea what the other reviewer is complaining about!
I have no idea what you are complaining about! This movie is perfect, and the voice dubbing is wonderful. Remember, the dubbing of Japanese voice-over is terrible, and Americans are the 'movie-makers' not the other way around. Leave the Japanese Videogames to the Japanese, and American movies and production to us Americans. I thought the overall production of this movie was fantastic! 4 stars only because no special features. But overall, very good!

Customer Review: THIS CRADLE DOES NOT WORK FOR THE PSP SLIM/LITE
It looked pretty sweet when I got it, but was very dissapointed that it only works for PSP Phat. THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR THE PSP LITE/SLIM MODEL. It's my mistake for thinking that it would. I would change the description to say this does not work for the PSP Slim model. I'm going to try and sell it locally.
Customer Review: PSP Movie Dock: A Review
Well, after the few minutes it took to compare prices on the available PSP docking stations here on the site (like I'm sure you've just done) I found myself no closer to making an informed decision. So, I went for the cheapest one that still included a remote, and now we have: PSP Movie Dock: A Review. Well, my standard "fat" PSP sits pretty snug in the dock, I can't speak for the PSP Slim, but mine fits good. The dock itself can run off of the PSP battery, 4 AAAs, or the power/car plug. As for the remote, it comes with a lil lithium watch-lookin battery. My only complaint is it cannot fast forward or rewind, those buttons you can sorta see in the picture are only used to advance to the "next" or "previous" track on a umd, so for instant replay or just to rewind a lil bit, you still gotta use the PSP d-pad, or the buttons on the unit itself, which are quite handy. The volume and pause/play buttons on the remote do work all the time tho. Only up to a few feet, but that's ok cause I'm not going to be sitting across the room from my PSP when I watch it anyway. But the one thing you need to consider before you buy is the sound quality, and that's where the unit suffers, but not without a redeeming quality that makes me glad I bought it. Yes, the speakers on the unit are not the best. However, with the proper means, you can just hook it up to an external speaker system (I found a great set of portable speakers for ten bucks at Wal-Mart) And, with a little imagination and velcro, you can have a bangin' car PSP theater system. When it's run into good speakers, you don't notice any lacking in sound quality, so the low price makes this unit a good buy, whether it be for the casual gamer who wants to explore the infinite possibilities of PSPtertainment, or the hardened techno-geek who prolly has all the parts lying around already to unlock the true power of this docking station..... thanks for taking the time, and game responsibly -_- Peace -_-

Friday Night Lights [UMD for PSP]

Based on the perennial nonfiction bestseller by H.G. Bissinger, Friday Night Lights looks at high school football in the harsh light of reality, finding heart and hardness while stirring our emotions. Actor-director Peter Berg (Very Bad Things, The Rundown) is Bissinger's cousin; he knows the material well, and understands how an obsession with winning turns high school kids into somber, over-pressured gladiators--expendable soldiers in a community war against shame and obscurity. The fact-based story focuses on the 1988 football season of Odessa-Permian high school in West Texas, and as a fast-paced sports movie, Berg delivers the goods with a rousing, frenetically styled crowd-pleaser. But there's darkness in this tale of weary underdogs, including an abusive father (well-played by country music star Tim McGraw), threatening townsfolk, an injured star running back (Derek Luke), a tormented quarterback (Lucas Black), and the melancholy coach (Billy Bob Thornton) who takes his team to the finals. Berg's film could use less flashy cutting and more drama to support its gridiron intensity, but Friday Night Lights offers a refreshing alternative to the conventional sports movie, and makes a perfect triple-feature with the equally exciting documentaries Go Tigers! and The Last Game. --Jeff Shannon
Customer Review: Let's get ready to rumble
I am a woman. I am a woman who doesn't follow sports much in real life, nor do I watch movies about sports. The only reason I picked this up was because I have a thing for Garrett Hedlund as eye candy and I am a fan of Billy Bob Thornton. I could care less about a football movie. Still, this was a good movie. Following in the footsteps of the great sports movies (The Natural, Rudy, Rocky, etc.), we are rooting for the underdog and feeling a great joy when someone triumphs over a great obsticle. We are following the 1988 high school football season of the Panthers in a small Texas town. We are in America's heartland, Texas, a state that practically throbs with national pride and a love of football. Football is important, and you feel the exuberance of all the star team members as they interact with the townsfolk and media. Each has their own struggle, Garret Hedlund's probably being the most with an abusive father (Time McGraw) and his obvious popularity with the girls (gotta love that scene where the girl gives him a Rice Krispy sculpture!). Billy Bob is a stereotypical hard nosed coach, gruff and demanding. He pushes them as hard as he can. And they triumph. A great feel good movie about overcoming. It just happens to be a sports movie too.
Customer Review: Awesome Movie
I love this movie. The one thing I have come to appreciate is the very fact that if it were not for the misfortune of B. Miles, this movie and the recognition this team and individuals received would have never come about. One comes to the conclusion that Miles's misfortune has followed him in many ways into adulthood. The flaw of the movie is the many unanswered question marks left behind. For instance, was the mother of our QB hero sick or addicted ? What was the clasroom and campus atmosphere really like for the players ? What about school work and part time jobs ? The movie was grand and because of its breadth many things that should have been focused on were not. But this movie in its grandness pulls beyond any perceived flaw it may have. It is just awesome.

Sony PSP Battery Pack (3.6v - 2200mAh) 20% more power

3.6v - 2200 mAh battery, 20% more power than the original / An estimated extra 45 to 60 minutes of playtime
Customer Review: Stay away from these!
I took my chance on this battery from someone of the marketplace and pretty much word for word all the symptoms are there: Made in Japan, barcode missing, doesn't retain the charge much at all. I've had mine for about a month or so and slowly the battery indicator has begun to flicker as though I had the charger connected. Do yourself a favor and buy legit from your nearest electronic store. I payed 17 bucks for mine here so it wasn't a big loss but avoid the hassle of waiting for your order just to be disappointed about your purchase. I'm on my way to fry's right now to buy me a legit battery.
Customer Review: Make sure you get an actual Sony - pay $40 or $45, it's worth it
Many fake PSP batteries claim to be original Sonys. You can tell authentic "backlist" Sony batteries (discontinued recently due to the new "slim" PSP release) because they come in packaging with English language on the back and say "made in China". The actual battery has a barcode on the back of it. Fake PSP 2200 mAh have Chinese language on the back of the packaging and say "made in Japan" (an unlikely claim). The fake battery itself has no barcode on the back of it. In use, the fake will not give any indicator of battery life; the indicator flashes on and off and no time estimate of remaining power is left. When charged and connected to AC current, the indicator will list less than 6 hours of battery life. (The standard PSP 1800 mAh has a max battery life of 6H 28M; anything less than this total means the battery has less power, not more.) Therefore a fake 2200 mAh gives less battery life than a real 1800 mAh original PSP battery will. A real Sony 2200 mAh battery will take about three hours to charge, will display a steady battery indicator icon, and will give max power time estimate of 7H + when fully charged. You will get about 20% more battery life than with the original Sony issue 1800 mAh battery. The fake Sonys according to other net sources also have less of a lifetime charge capacity and lose ability to hold max power over time. Also, the fakes are somewhat bulkier and fit more tightly in the battery slot. These bulkier batteries, real and fake, will not fit in new PSP slims. Sony has pulled the old 2200 mAh batteries from the market because of this, and is now reissuing them in a kit with new battery covers so they will fit the slims. Some retailers have the old legitimate Sony 2200s in stock and will sell them for $40, while other retailers are getting the new Sony Extended Power kit (with the same battery but the added case cover) for $45. Amazon itself does not sell either authentic Sony battery currently. The Amazon marketplace sellers frankly are not to be trusted to sell a legitimate Sony battery for $20 or $30 bucks. The marketplace vendor I bought from promised an "authentic Sony battery" for $30 but it was not. If you want real Sony batteries, you need to pay real Sony prices. The fakes work worse than the real ones do, so the "discount" you get really takes its toll in utility and longevity. Either buy from Amazon if and when they restock real Sony products, or buy from a big retailer like Best Buy or GameStop. Amazon should not let these fakes be sold by its marketplace affiliates.

Customer Review: Awesome
I love the PSP. it is great. I ordered it on Sunday and got it on Friday. The only bad thing was i didn't recieve the soft case, and some other little items, but I contacted the company and they replied in one day and are sending the items to me free of charge. One thing to make sure you know is that all these are opened packages, so if you don't mind that then this is a great buy, and way cheaper than any stores. Overall it was a great buy.
Customer Review: R O C K S ! ! !
Well, I kinda wanna make this fast, the PSP ROCKS! Wii is nothing compared to this, and it's way cheaper. Wii can't give you videos and internet or music... OR pictures. Nah, PSP beats that! NEED USB CABLE JUST LIKE THE ONES YOU USE FOR THE MOTOROLA RAZRv3 Music: efects are good, visualizations are pretty nice to be such a tiny console. Built-in speakers are not quite good, specially their location... Screen: CAUTION might get scratched easily, display rocks and effects from any game are shown perfectly. NO dead pixels and I've got a year with it, for now... :p Photos: Send and receive 'em. GET A NEW MEMORY STICK, THE ONE THAT COMES WITH IT ITS TOO DANG SMALL! (get at least 516mb, or just like I did: 1gb, which suits me best 'cause I have a lot of songs and a bunch of pics.) Pictures look perfect! Videos: haven't watched videos, old crappy mpeg4 is hard to find, I recommend Videora software to convert videos to the proper type, but movies in UMD are recommended, the size may get u all angry, and the umd movies are quite more expensive, I'd rather watch DVDs. TO GIVE THIS LIST AN END I just wanna say that this console rocks and I recommend it a 98% percent, nevermind watcha gotta get for it.

The Dark Crystal [UMD for PSP]

Dark Crystal PSP UMD Movie
Customer Review: Would have worked better as a cartoon
The Dark Cyrstal opens up with a fairly good start. By the serious and profound voice of the narrator you'll be thinking that this is going to be good. But as the film rolls on its many flaws and weaknesses begin to show through. Jim Henson is talented and it's amazing the different kinds of puppetry and animatronics he blends together to create this other world, but I'm sorry to say it just isn't good enough. The mystics movements are so slow that it's a wonder they make it to the Skeksis castle even by the end of the film! I know they're old but come on! Then theirs our hero the gelfling. It's impossible for him to evoke any sympathy or emotion from the viewer because since he's a puppet he's not capable of facial expressions! The only way we know that he is sad or happy is by his voice. The puppet even with that still seems lifeless. Another problem is the story. Though we are told that the Skesis are corrupt wizards and the mystics good wizards, we NEVER see ANY wizardry from either of them whatsoever. If you are hoping for a great wizard finale, look elsewhere. They don't ever cast any spells; they don't ever have magic objects with them or concoct amazing potions; they're just there really. Again with the puppetry. There is a scene where the Skesis' Garthim come barging into the ugly wise old woman's laboratory to get the gelfling. This was intented to be an exciting sequence. The gelfling just misses a Garthim's clutches before he gets on the old hag's rotating planet thingy, but because of the cheap, crude, silly movements of the character it looks too fake and lackluster. This film would have worked so much better if it was animated by some talented artists. Having more believable and smoother movments from the characters, facial expressions, and beautiful artwork and scenery would have turned this sad yarn into what it was intended to be: an enjoyable fantasy epic. Also a pet peeve of mines is the chamberlain Skesis. Oh my Lord! Give me a ax to hack that thing with! I know Jim Henson is trying to give individuality to his characters; give them certain traits to make them memorable and distinct from the others, but come on! All his stupid whining and 'Hmmmmmm..." sounds happened pratically every time he comes in the scene. You can't say that I'm juding this film unjustly because I am an adult. You can't say that if I was a child then I wouldn't have noticed these things and would have enjoyed it. Sorry wrong. I hated this film as a child and still do. I thought that now that I am older and more open minded about things I used to dislike that I might care for this. Nope. Still stupid. Still sucks. You want a good fantasy? See the Neverending story, Willow, Castle in the Sky, The Secret of Nimh, or even Henson's Labyrinth. They all work much better and are better films.
Customer Review: Great classic
After watching this movie many times I wanted to have it on DVD. I was debating if I should get this version or the Limited Edition, but I read through another review that the limited edition didn't offer many extras, and for the price isn't worth it. This DVD is great, and at a cheap price, a must have for fans of this classic movie. Also there is a sequel coming out in a few years so it's a great time to refresh yourself on the world of the Dark Crystal.

Office Space [UMD for PSP]

Unable to endure another mind-numbing day at Initech Corporation, cubicle slave Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) gets fired up and decides to get fired. Armed with a leisurely new attitude and a sexy new girlfriend (Jennifer Aniston), he soon masters the art of neglecting his work, which quickly propels him into the ranks of upper management! Now the stage is set for Peter to carry out a high-tech embezzling scheme that's sure to mean the end of his job and a one-way ticket to easy street. Can he pull it off before all corporate hell breaks loose?
Customer Review: Gimme some Space
If they made a live-action "Dilbert" movie, it might resemble "Office Space" -- a hysterically funny office film by Mike Judge (of "Beavis & Butthead" fame). Filled with quirky characters and a hilarious employee rebellion, this is a movie for anyone who ever felt trapped in a soul-destroying job. Peter (Ron Livingston) spends every day in a cubicle, doing pointless work under the thumb of his smarmy boss. His life is boring, and he doesn't even have the confidence to tell the pretty waitress (Jennifer Aniston) that he likes her. In an effort to relax, he accompanies his controlling girlfriend to a hypnosis session. Unfortunately, the hypnotist dies of a heart attack... while Peter is still under. The next morning, Peter wakes up happy and laid-back -- and determined to get out of his rotten job, and live fat and happy. He conspires with Samir Nagheenanajar (Ajay Naidu) and ill-named Michael Bolton (David Herman) -- two coworkers who are about to be axed -- to skim money off the company's assets with no one the wiser. Only problem is, their scene is rapidly spinning out of control. "Office Space" started off as an early 90s animated skit, featuring the character of Milton. You know, that increasingly deranged employee who complains that "you took my stapler." This time, Milton is a minor character, although a pivotal one. The focus is mainly on the mellowed-out Peter and his wild scheme to profit the downtrodden employees of Initech. Judge creates a hysterical tangle of cubicle workers, layoffs and the most annoying boss in the history of film ("Yeeeeeeaaaahhhh... uhhhhhhh..."). This brand of humor is twisted, down to the slow-motion, ghetto-style beating of the copier in the middle of a field. And of course, the dialogue is quietly insane ("Oh, and next Friday... is Hawaiian shirt day...") as the plot grows grows more and more tense... until you know someone has to snap. The trio of lead characters are a riot -- there's Peter, whose newfound perspective is immensely entertaining. There's Samir, who can barely restrain his simmering rage at his rotten job. And there's Michael, who has a seething resentment that he has the same name as THAT sappy singer. Jennifer Aniston does a pretty good job as a love interest for Peter -- a waittress who hates her job as much as he hates his. "Office Space" has become something of a deserving cult classic -- funny, strange, and sympathetic to the ants that toil in their cubicles. Make more movies, Mike Judge -- especially if they're as good as "Office Space."
Customer Review: Cult Classic for Cubicle Cadre
This movie endures as a favorite in corporate (and government) circles because, unlike Dilbert, it's still funny after all these years. The characters are fresh and engaging (except for the one name, Aniston somebody), the storyline is edgy (if logically flawed in parts), and it made me laugh several times. A great rental. Not to buy. No. It's also pretty vulgar, though I admit I don't get out much, being the father of two small children (my most important job, bucko). Do what I did--see it at home while on sick leave.

PSP Road Kit

A complete set of ultra-functional tools, for taking care of your PSP Action Carrying Case
Customer Review: Solid Storage Solutions for PSP
While the PSP is certainly one of the slickest pieces of gaming hardware ever, it's ultra shiny and clear surfaces make it a very high maintenance little toy, indeed. The need for protective cases and travel-friendly accessories is therefore a very integral part of the PSP experience. Sony seems to be content to leave this potentially profitable market to third party manufacturers for now, hence the following review of Pelican's Road Pak 1. Consisting of a couple of different power sources, a carrying case, and UMD sleeves, Pelican has put together a compelling product, at least for the first run of "must-have" PSP accessories. At the core of this kit is arguably the rechargable battery. Also sold as an individual unit for about $20, the rechargable battery is a rather cheap-looking little black brick with a green LED indicator and pass-through that allows you to charge your PSP while simultaneously charging the battery itself. While I have not scientifically tested the battery charge times, I've found that it is good for at least a single full charge to your PSP. It is rated by the manufacturer to do two full charges, but I feel it is probably safer to say between 1 and 1 and a half "good" charges. It should effectively double your overall playtimes if you are out and about. I believe it's best use will be continuous gaming or watching a couple of movies during a 4-6 hour flight. One problem I found is that the battery gets almost alarmingly hot during charging, especially when it is being used as a pass-through to charge your PSP at the same time. I would probably avoid dual charging and just do each device separately for everyday use. The Pak also includes a 12V car adapter, which is perfect for road trips. The soft case bears mentioning as well. Made of a sturdy nylon, it has a rigid, pre-formed compartment for your PSP and charging devices. I assume it's molded plastic with a felt-like coating sprayed on. I actually like this as it prevents the PSP from floating around in the case and coming into contact with everything, although the PSP fits too snugly to allow external screen protectors that might attach to the PSP to fit in too. There are also two other separate compartments for UMDs and miscellaneous items. The section meant for UMDs is positioned directly over the PSP compartment, and although there is a lightly padded partition to separate the two, the paranoid part of me is hesitant of trying to stuff anything there. I would probably want a separate case for UMDs or see better padding in a future design. Also included as almost an afterthought are several colorful UMD sleeves and a tiny cleaning cloth. The UMD sleeves are of the "slide in" style that have univerally been criticized for lightly scratching the external housing of the UMDs. They will, however, protect the exposed optical read slot from damage, so they are still useful, if you don't mind the possible cosmetic consequences. The cleaning cloth is black in color and is quite small compared to the one included in the PSP value pack. It would be ok as a backup, or if you really want to stick something over your PSP screen while it's inside the travel case. Overall, the Road Pak is a very good value and it one of the better first generation accessory packs. I have yet to come across an accessory kit that truly delivers the "right stuff" as far as storage case, screen protection, media protection, and power sources, but the PSP is still in it's infancy. The battery pak alone is about half the value of the entire package, so it's definitely an accessory kit worthy of consideration.

Da Ali G Show - The Complete First Season [UMD for PSP]

The outrageous comedy/reality series stars British chameleon Sacha Baron Cohen, who travels across America in the guise of one of three totally different characters. Cohen's primary alter-ego is Ali G., who calls himself a "hip-hop journalist", but who's really a white rapper-wannabe. When Cohen isn't putting Ali G and his "guests" in unusual and often delightfully uncomfortable situations, he's shedding his yellow gangsta track suit attire and slipping into two other memorable characters: Borat, an impossibly naive TV reporter from Kazakhstan, and Bruno, a gay, Austrian fashionista. Each of these characters will be traversing America, exploring different aspects of our culture, and interviewing real celebrities and dignitaries.

Customer Review: Ali G is da man...
I wanted to write and let you know that I think this is a peculiar and particularly funny DVD collection. But I should mention that the humor really grows on you, and requires repeat viewings to catch all the double entendre and hidden jokes. Also, many of the jokes have to be heard two or three times, before they become as funny as they truly are. And believe me, they are hysterical. Ali G is just one of the three characters played by Sacha Baron Cohen. A British humorist, from London presumably, this DVD is one funny show. Hard to believe that a Jewish man, from England, could play a "white Americaninized rapper" but play he does; with the minds and imaginations of many famous and important people. I cannot believe that he gets Boutros Boutros Kahli to rap? Amazing. I first heard of this DVD/show from the star's interview on the Howard Stern show, and I was instantly entranced. I am a big fan of the "hidden camera" type shows (please see my other reviews) from the likes of Jamie Kennedy, and others, and assumed that this was the same type of show. But what is amazing is that everyone on the set knows they are being filmed, and yet, they continue to sit there, and take his abuse. Howard Stern asked him his method of obtaining interviews, and Mr. Cohen could not reveal his secret for fear of not being able to repeat the process. However, it is clear, after viewing, Mr. Cohen is an expert ad-libber, and a very funny comedienne. He has my vote for funniest person from England. My second favorite character is Bruno, the sexually confused high profile personality interviewer from Austria. He is brilliantly inept, and quite stupid. The fact that he more often interviews secondary no-body's, and doesn't get near anyone remotely famous, makes it even funnier. In one segment he is interviewing the owner of a fancy boutique, and he tells him, presumably when the film isn't rolling, to say that Madonna comes to his shop on a regular basis, 'cuz zat is much more interesting for 'ze viewers.' HILARIOUS!!! Lastly is Borat, a Kazakhstan TV reporter who seems to limit his low command of the English Language to only the most embarrassing subjects and questions, much to the chagrin of those being interviewed. I find it hard to believe this man would even be married in his home country, but showing naked pictures of his "wife" to complete strangers is not past him. Watching him run down the streets of Manhattan after taxis is funny, and stupid at the same time. Supposedly his shows are telecast in his home country, and I suspect his "innocent foreigner" questions are what help to warm him up to his "victims." We Americans are quite trusting. Season 2 was just released last Tuesday, 9/13/2005, and I await my UMD version from Amazon. Hopefully, I'll follow up with a review sometime next week. I give "Seazon 1" two thumbs up!!! (Review is based on the DVD viewing of the same name.)

Customer Review: I got two names for you, Mr. Pig Knuckles!!!
Near Dark is a very intersting horror movie in every sense of the word "interesting", and "horror". It's a vampire-western crossover film, combining the charm of Western movie characters with the violence and midnight adrenaline of vampire horror. Here's the skinny: -Caleb, a likeable Southern guy falls for Mae, a newcomer to his town. While on a "date", a kiss turns to a bite that turns Caleb into a vampire. Now he's kidnapped by Mae's vampire clan, featuring the sinister leader, played by Lance Henriksen, alongside the hilarious, rough, vulgar-mouthed and pretty much all-around AWESOME Bill Paxton. And I'm not just worshipping his role because I share first names with him, Bill Paxton dominates in this movie. -Now, one of the "interesting" facets of this movie is the twist. Horror movies are about what happens to people, and while the events in the plot of Near Dark are crucial, the character development is just as vital in this movie as in a comedy or drama movie. You step inside the world of the vampires, learn to love them, or hate them, your pick. -General Info about the movie: VIOLENCE AND TERROR: Well, there's no shortage of action in this movie. Just look at the whopping eight and a half minute roadhouse scene to get what I mean. As far as vampire horror goes, there isn't any, real horror to speak of, it's more like an exploitation sorta thing going on as opposed to something chasing you in the desert. LANGUAGE: Oh man, is this where Bill Paxton comes in. I think there's a good 55 profanities dropped in this film. And it's often used towards the comedic side of everything. As far as comedy goes for slitting a guy's throat with your spurs (yes, the roadhouse scene) SEX 'N' NUDITY: No nudity or sex to speak of, although those scenes where Caleb's drinking Mae's blood for food will make you go "Hubba hubba!", as they are presented rather erotically, shall I say. THE BOTTOM LINE: "Near Dark" possesses a very strange atmosphere to it. There's a very surreal tone to the whole movie, and it's a lot more mystical than you'd expect from what sounds like a Dracula-John Wayne crossover, even though that's technically not what the film is. The ambient music from German band Tangerine Dream only adds to the dreamlike mood. The way the movie's presented in all its surreal glory, makes you feel like you're missing something, even if you've seen the movie several times. Fortunately, the movie's ending satisfies, and though I won't give it away, made me feel good. Also, there's a bonus disc full of extra features, that offers even more bang for your buck. Well, if you want a surreal, violent and fast-paced horror movie with odd, "interesting" characters that brings something new to the horror table, check this item off the menu. It's a horror movie that offers a main course you'll want to feast off for quite some time! Thanks for the time, and peace.
Customer Review: Boy, what a dissapointment!
I liked Lost boys and I am a big fan of vampire stuff, books and movies. I really was looking forward to this but what a dissapointment. I fail to see why anybody would like this movie!? Somebody called this a horror movie... there is absolutely no horror what so ever.
