The snow's done gone frozen up their brains, we reckon!
It's interesting to see just how far people will go to hate on the PSP. Fortunately for the shmoes at PSP Fanboy, we all run on pure, unleaded disdain; mostly of the "PSP SUXXORZ!!! DS iS Da BeST!!!!!!" kind. After seeing this video of a kid trashing his broken PSP as "revenge", we have to ask: What was so irretrievably wrecked about it that it couldn't be exchanged, fixed, or be covered by warranty? Wait, do 12-year old boys even need a reason to trash anything?
Here's a tip for everyone who's ever considered putting together their own anti-PSP home movies: If you're planning to talk about what you're about to do to your busted-up PSP, at least turn the volume down on the music track you've got playing in the background so we can hear you babble.

Why is it always a bunch of neanderthal looking kids with intellect to match that make these kind of videos? And who the hell uses Fall Out Boy for the music track? You shouldn't flaunt that kind of pitty music around. Keep it between you and your damn suicidal episodes.
To leave things with a complament, at least these guys know how to bust their toys into peices unlike the tards that ran over the DS.

I wonder what condition a PSP would be in if it was run over. The DS looked surprisingly better than I would have thought

hmmm....
I love the DS, and I really don't mind the PSP, it just doesn't suit my needs, I need different types of games.
*thinking* but this was just plain stupid. Junk or not, its still a 300-400$ piece of equipment, and if i was this kid's parent i'd be pissed. But everyone's afraid to discipline nowadays anyway.....
All I can say is, he needs a swift kick in the arse, he could have gotten a refund, bought a DS, and given the extra money to buy food for a village for a damn year!
...what a waste...

This is just stupid!
Some Japanese losers did this to their PSP, too and posted the video.
I just cannot understand this type of thinking.
If a person hates their PSP so much... just give it to someone that might want it.
Or... sell it!
Another fine example of spoiled little brats that have no concept of value or how hard it is to earn money.
If I was this kid's dad... I would beat him with remaing parts of the PSP and make him eat it while video taping the whole thing to post on the internet.

I am sure is PSP was still working but he is the idiot who don't know how to fix it. I had problem with mine, but I did not use a hammer to fix the problem, I use my head!

This video was posted on Gamespot before. He broke it because it didn't work, he said it got fryed somehow, and he was pissed and destroyed it. Don't blow the story out of proportion, geez.

Obviously these half-wits bricked it trying to load bunk homebrew. I'd like to see their parents beat them with a hammer. Good times.

Wow, that's a blatant waste of money is nothing else. Certainly a disgrace for any gaming fan, period.

I'm sure he tried to MOD it or thought that because he can download stuff he was a leet Hacker, and bricked the poor thing. Videos like this remind me why so much art, science and literature have been lost through out history when morons with hammers invaded various parts of the world. If nothing else he could have sold it on ebay for parts and probably made a couple bucks. too bad they didn't crack a lithium battery open and get it wet, then it could have exploded in thier eyes and prevented them from making any more videos.

Well, everybody, what more to say? you're all right. Kind of guy who could burn money for fun because it's crumpled... well, doing this to a PSP is a way of doing it...
I hate seeing people destroying thingsand above all expensive ones! even so, seeing destroying a poor old NES would be sad too! at least, give that to somebody who cares, who can fix, or who collects!!! or sell it and give the money for charity... so sad and so shocking!

I think it's funny that it takes him so long to break. It make me think that the PSP is pretty solid.
When I was a teen, I never thought of taking my teen angst out on my Atari.

The sad part is, he will probably buy another one. Sony's unending hardware onslaught wins again.

I sold my DS for a PSP and i have to say now I am almost 100% regretting my choice. There are no games that are great on PSP, GTALCS and SOCOM are ok but they arent great. The DS has advance wars, mario kart, metroid, age of empires and many other good games. I think as soon as the DS lite comes out my PSP will have to go because sony didnt focus on gaming which was why everyone should have purchased it
