The PSP has undergone many hardware revisions and cosmetic changes since it launched in 2005. The best version so far has to be the PSP-3000 which has a built-in microphone and a radically improved screen compared to previous models. The PSPgo has a neat, compact form factor but it can’t play UMDs and the screen is 0.5 inches smaller (diagonally) than other PSP models.

At gamescom last week Sony announced a new model of PSP - the E1000. Priced at just €100, it will go on sale across PAL territories this November. The budget model lacks certain features which some gamers might miss - Wi-Fi, stereo speakers and a built-in microphone. The new model is also a bit bulkier than the PSP-3000 - weighing 223g as opposed to the 3000’s 189g.
