PSP beats PS3 at PSone games

While the download service is really only useful for PSP-owning PS3 players (after all, second hand PSone games are probably cheaper and work on PS3 anyway), we're impressed with it so far.So impressed, in fact,we're surprised PSP in its current form exists at all. A handheld PSone would have been easier to develop and cheaper to produce, with a catalogue of hundreds of quality games available from day one.

But with GTA: Vice City Stories in your pocket and PSone games available at these prices and at this quality, PSP may finally be onto a winner, especially if the service ever branches out from PS3-only downloads.
