Matt Slagel, a lucky reporter from AP, got his hands on a new PlayStation Portable, complete with a couple UMD discs - one of which of course is Spiderman 2. We can read about his first impressions of this pricey, but pretty cool piece of hardware.
| With a 16:9 aspect ratio (meaning it looks like a movie screen) and a resolution of 480 by 272 pixels, the PSP's crisp, bright graphics are spectacular. Watching "Spider-Man 2," I felt as if I was holding some artifact from the future, amazed I was able to enjoy a feature film on such a small screen without squinting.
Glare was a problem, especially outdoors. Get used to seeing your face on the screen. There's a cleaning cloth included, and good thing: the glossy black exterior is easily smudged marring the otherwise gorgeous appearance. On such a pristine surface, even tiny bits of dust and grease really stand out. The PSP has been described as a PlayStation 2 console that fits in your hands, and for the most part it's true. But you can't play PS2 games on the PSP, and vice versa. |
