Sony has sure had a winner with the PSP! It's quickly become the number one selling portable gaming system and keeps picking up new fans each day. We have been getting a number of emails from people wondering where they can find free PSP downloads so we thought we would put together a quick article outlining your options.



More and more people are using PSP game downloads instead of buying PSP games at the stores. It's a lot cheaper to download PSP games and you don't even have to leave the house! You just have to fire up your computer anytime you feel like trying a new game.

Let's not waste any time! I'm going to list your three options to find free PSP downloads:

Option #1 - Finding Free PSP Downloads

The first thing many people looking for PSP downloads do is bring up their favorite search engine and type in "free PSP game downloads". They click the trusty search button and take a look at what comes up.

Do they have any luck?

Not really. You can find a few websites that have banners that advertise "free PSP downloads" but they bring along a bunch of problems once you download the software.

First, these sites are famous for having all sorts of viruses. Many of the files aren't a PSP file at all - they're just a virus or type spyware that will cause problems on your computer. There's no one monitoring these websites so you can never know exactly what you are getting.

Another big complaint about these websites has to do with the download speeds. Since the websites don't make any money the technology behind them is very low end. The download speeds are incredibly slow because of this.

You will also find that many of the game files you download are "corrupt", meaning they don't work at all.

This option isn't one that we ever recommend. There are just too many problems with these websites and much better options available.

Option #2 - Free PSP Game Downloads

Your second option is one that many people have tried after getting frustrated with the first.

There are PSP download websites that allow you to download games, movies and music when you sign up as a member. As you might guess, they charge a fee for each membership. These sites costs about $30 each month, however this lets you download as many games or files as you want.

We aren't going to talk much about this option because the next one is a whole lot cheaper and will give you access to the exact same type of PSP downloads.

Option #3 - Free PSP Game Downloads

This last option is quickly becoming the standard for downloading PSP games, movies and music. It's the option the majority of our readers end up choosing in the long-run.

There are PSP game download membership sites that offer unlimited downloads for a one-time only membership fee. Instead of having to pay each month, you are only billed once and can then download games or movies whenever you want for as long as you have your PSP.

This type membership runs about $35-$45 and gives you instant access. Any software that you need to transfer the files onto your PSP is included with your membership at no extra cost.

We included a link at the end of this article so you can learn how to start a free trial at a couple of the top-ranked PSP download websites. The setup should take you in around 5-10 minutes.

Since the companies that are behind these websites are trying to make a profit, they do what it takes to make sure that their customers are happy. This means the downloads are fast, you can find the newest and most popular games and all of the files work and are virus-free.

The PSP is a great entertainment system that you can always have with you while you're 'on the go'. Using PSP downloads is the best way to make sure you can always find new games or movies without having to spend a fortune. A quick warning though - it's easy to get addicted!
