spot on reggie fils-amie the psps battery life can last up to 5 hours if the light is dimmed headphones are used and your playing a game with poorer graphics. only 1.5 to 2.5 hours if your playing with a nice display and a good graphically intense game such as metal gear acid or ridge racer or any sort of movie. not good sony. theyve also announced that they hpe to rerelease the psp model when battery development furthers meaning people who buy the console will not neccesarily have the best model a month later after spending 180 on the bloody thing in the first place. sort yourself out sony.
