Default Should I buy a psp?

if this doesnt go here feel free to move it because I didn't find a "portable games" section...

my friend is offering to sell me his psp for about 170 CDN but I can probably bring it down to 150 with 2 games [IDK what they are] and a 32mb memory stick

personally I don't think I have the need for one, to be honest I spend a good amount of my time inside and when I do go out its usually to go to a friends or go to the mall or whatnot.

I can use the internet at home, and I don't need it elsewhere, I already have a 20 gig creative zen so I won't use it for music, the widescreen view is nice for movies but I can't imagine myself watching a movie on such a small screen and the only psp games that have caught my eye are lumines and gta liberty city stories and I wouldn't get a console just for 1 or 2 games

so what do you guys think? its an awesome deal [about 1/2 the retail price w/o tax] but if I buy it it'll drain my bank account which I REALLY don't wanna do...

any help is appreacited.

If you don't think you'll use it much then kindly decline.

It's a nice offer, but you have some upgrades you'd like, I suggest you put your money towards those instead.

Ditto on the previous responses.
On the other hand, I purchased mine and enjoy it a lot. I sometimes chaufer people and while waiting I will play it. Things like bus rides and break time at work are the perfect times for using it. I just got a 2 GB chip that I will put movies on so that I can watch them on the PSP. I only got mine in the beggining because it was new (unopened) for $180 u.s.

i wouldnt get one (although I have one myself) IMO the games out are crap. Only get it if you like the games which are out for it now, or you just want a mp3 player+ video player in one.
