I haven't delved into portable gaming since the original Gameboy. Can someone fill me in on what's "hot" and what's not hot in today's offerings?

I'm interested in some games that I could just play to pass the time before meetings or when I'm traveling.

PSP. Look into it, no doubt what you want :)

PSP and don't look back.... You will play games, surf the web wirelessly, watch movies, Email, listen to music, photoslide shows. Very cool little device. I can highly recommend them, I have two.

what games you guys like?  i have a psp, and love it, but mostly for the media stuff.  the only game i spend much time with is lumines.  i usually mainly play shooting, and racing games.  i couldn't take nfs, or race driver.....socom controls screw me up.  syphon filter is ok.  i couldn't stand killzone either.  i just want to shoot stuff.  it's not so easy just renting psp games to try 'em.  blockbuster doesn't carry them.

but yeah, the psp is a nice system.  they have some new bundles coming out.  also a new, lighter, more reliable revised system as well.    

it's wi-fi.  no subscriptions.  just have to have a wireless hotspot.
