30 Gb Zune PSP

[CMachuCa53]

i like the review on the zune but the PSP has less battery life

[2point6x4]

hi BikerTrashWolf great video review, and

are you thinking of getting the new Zune HD? I might get one, it does seem really nice.

hey if you want go check out ZuneScene,com I'm member Z80

[BikerTrashWolf]

I am going to wait a while before I get one. I just make the upgrade to the 80 gig

[2point6x4]

cool.

[shibbysmg]

I like your review VERY VERY VERY VERY MUCH!! I will subscribe just cause ur awesome!

[sabacrow91]

This is a good review but the only thing i would like to nitpick is when i paused the part when you went though all the bands/artist in your zune even though i saw Metallica & Black Sabbath BUT i saw NO JUDAS PRIEST & NO IRON MAIDEN

[BikerTrashWolf]

Sorry man, Not much of a maiden fan... The high pitched vocals kinds just anoy me after a while. Only priest I wver listened to was "breakin the law" on bevis and butthead.

[sabacrow91]

well you love black sabbath and all three of their main vocalist (Ozzy, Dio & Tony Martin) were high pitched. but who cares we all have our taste.

[BikerTrashWolf]

hmmm... good point. If I get a new zune to replace my broken one I willhave to check some out on the zune pass.

[poopypoopyton]

your GREASY~!

[BrainSeepsOut]

Wow, the zune looks much more elegant than any of the iShit.

[azlj01]

Has anyone herd when the new firmware is coming out to stop the leapyear bug.

O and the Zune Wireless Charger(Mentioned in the Zunited Podcast)[Microsoft's Zune group]

[ikbengewoongek]

like the review! I bought a Zune 30 today and am not a techy myself, so seeing a review from you is great, i understand exactly what you're saying xD (other techy people are so full of difficult words :P)

Thanks!

[blackfang143]

Plus Zune updates all their older models to keep them current, the recent firmware you are "reviewing" has a clock in it even though when originally made didn't, and the Zune AC Adapter box come with just the AC Adaptor no sync cable, since you have the sync cable that u got with ur Zune already u should be fine or u can get another one buying a Cable Pack.

[BikerTrashWolf]

I don't see a clock on it anywhere in this video. I have the update now that has the lock in the upper right corner.

2nd, if I am getting an AC adaptor I am not by a computer so why should I have to carry my sync cable with me?

3rd, I don't have the most recent model and dont feel the need to spend the money for it when this one does everything I want already.

Lastly, thanks for the constructive criticism. it is nice to hear why I am an idiot, not just that I am one.

[azlj01]

My Zune 30 Menu: Music  videos picture Social radio podcasts audiobooks marketplace games settings I am really careless with my stuff and the zune is the only thing thats survived!!! I have the original fm transmitter and AV cable and it looks great on my tv(Hd) I have a lot of Zune Knowledge if you want some safe Hax and stuff (most of my vids are from youtube! 30/72)

[blackfang143]

Don't write reviews if you are not "techy", your quote "which i don't think they improved on them when they made the new version"(0:33) is extremely off and doesn't inform anyone looking to buy a Zune. Also when doing reviews use the most recent model that was developed to show full functionality. For example, the Zune 4,8,16,80,120 all have a touch ZunePad (not just a click feature, even though the touch and be shut off in settings).

[axl6533]

i think i need to get a job and get a new psp coz mine is broke and get a zune be better than my cd player

[alak58]

I hate zune but I love PSP.

[Estill01]

i hate psp but i love my 30 gig zune it is better thn the ipod

[specialkstudios]

Nice beard at 2:07, lol. gr8 review

[dragonball316]

i almost decided to get zune or psp but then i was told only way i could keep stuff on psp is with memroy cards only, zune dont have memory card slot to upgrade on the memory i decide not get either one great review

[TehTechnoGuy]

Too bad all the friggin 30 gigs are frozen!

[johnus]

They should be fixed at midnight GMT.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Whats going on with this? Mine is working fine? is there a problem with an upgrade pack?

[BikerTrashWolf]

Mine is working fine....

[narubaku]

i have a zune thats samller than the screen of your zune, an ipod touch, and 2 psp's the original and the newest version

[BikerTrashWolf]

is there any real difference between the two PSP's besides the size?

[IamGreg73]

Hey whats up? Just checkin to see how you are, and whats up. Just a bit worried.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Yes, Sorry I tried to send you a message when I got home yesterday (saw the comment on my homepage) but they where doing maintenance.

The helicopter was not mine that went down, but I am glad you where concerned :)

[IamGreg73]

Ok. I'm glad your ok. So...have you watched any Death Note?

[BikerTrashWolf]

I watched both live action movies. Good stuff.

[IamGreg73]

Live action? ...

[BikerTrashWolf]

Yes, I tried searching on Veoh for the cartoons, Found the live action movies, watched both, enjoyed them, never bothered looking for the cartoons again after.

[IamGreg73]

Alrigth. I've never seen the live action.

[theunborn89]

This video is chintastic!! XD Jk How are you biker?

[BikerTrashWolf]

I am doing chin-errific!

Got hom a day late, but all is good otherwise.

[VicSidious]

24,594 songs in my collection. And counting.

[marvelrocks11]

holy shit dude 24,594 is a lot of songs what kind of bands do you listen to.

[doorht]

good review

[Razorgeist]

How many songs can the PSP hold?

[BikerTrashWolf]

it all depends on what size memory card you have in it, right now I have a 2 gig card in it and looking on Amazon they make up to a 32 gig memory card but I dont know if a PSP will recognise that large.

I would figure about 200 songs per gig.

[JoeNostalgiaReturns]

AC/DC eh?

out of all the songs to use as an example...

btw you get Black Ice? I haven't because the people who shop at my Wal-Mart scare me... but hey who wears short-shorts?

[BikerTrashWolf]

The PSP just puts everythign in alphabetical order and they where the first band I had on it at the time :P

I have nto yet bought black ice, might pick it up when I go to the city this afternoon.

[JoeNostalgiaReturns]

1000, eh?

I have 2807 songs currently on my computer, but I havent put all of my music on it.

though I don't think my full library is in the 10,000s area.

Zunes are pretty cool. There are things the iPod lacks that the Zune has and tings the Zune lacks the iPod has, though people shouldn't get in fanboy wars over them. People fight over the stupidest things these days.

PSPs are great. Only reason I don't use mine as much is I havent bought a game in a while, I lost my charger, and I own a Mac.

[JoeNostalgiaReturns]

Yeah I can't cause it's kinda weird for me to put certain files. I prefer listening to music with an iPod, cause my PSP uses only a 1GB card, and iTunes a lot easier for me to use. Though the iPod has a tiny screen, I still put most of my videos on them cause I get tv shows from iTunes, but the PSP has a nice large screen and when more movies come with Digital Copy I'd probably use that to view them if I had a working PC.

btw. what systems do you own and are thinking of getting in the foochur?

[BikerTrashWolf]

what systems do I own? I currently own and use a:PS2, a DS, A Gameboy SP, and my PSP. In my closet I still have my Saturn and my Nomad.

I am planing on getting a PS3 but would like to track down a 60 gig so that it has the better backwards compatibility and then just swap in a larger HD. sad thing is the Xbox 360 actually has more games I want to play, but the PS3 has some games I absoutly want to play.

[JoeNostalgiaReturns]

Yeah I got a PS3 a few weeks ago. I'm liking it. Main reason I bought it was for Blu-Ray, and the impressive list of exclusives like GOWIII, LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2 and MetalGearSolid4. Metal Gear Solid mostly. The Xbox 360 has a great list of games and I could just buy one plus a Blu-Ray Player separately, but MGS4 is so awesome.

so I'll have to miss out on Gear Of War 2 :(

also I like the free online(though crappier) and lack of Rrod which I worry too much about.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Rrod?

[JoeNostalgiaReturns]

Red Ring Of Death.

I dunno, the failure rate of 360s is pretty high, but Microsoft will replace them if your warranty isnt expired. Though they've spent millions replacing them when that money couldve been used to fund fixing the Rrod probs.

Though a lot of my friends who have Xboxes never get Rrod, and a lot of them also do.

[BikerTrashWolf]

OOHHHHHH... Every one I knwo with one has had it atleast once.

another is having the "disk read error" problem as well.

[axelnightmare]

It was on rock 102, ha!

[Maverickhunter253]

it happed to be uploaded on my birthday:)

[BikerTrashWolf]

Well happy birthday man :)

[Maverickhunter253]

thanks

[Maverickhunter253]

the big 17

[gigasteam]

ey you did great :) ey i see ur beard :)

also the european psp has better battery, and i asume u have chpped urs? well great review 5/5stars

[BikerTrashWolf]

nope, mine has no chips on it.

[gigasteam]

oh, well it alows you to play any game just by downloading it, no modefing by opening, its basicly just a program u put on it, its free, i can send u it whith instructions later if ur intrested?

[BikerTrashWolf]

hmmm... need to look into that. Please send the information at your leisure :D

[gigasteam]

ild send u it when papa comes home...and i missread that last word so wrong....

[BikerTrashWolf]

~tries t figure out what you could misread that as~

[dannmillis]

holy******lol**** *******!!!!!!!

[vengeance1701]

By the way...I think our age bracket (late 20's) just doesn't do the hundreds of thousands of songs thing...

Nobody I know does.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Yeah, I just dont like that much music, so much of it sounds the same, and even on my Zune I have songs I cant stand but where on albums I ripped and forget to de-sync.

[KYKickboxer]

You have good taste in music. I saw Opeth, Megadeth, Black Label Society. All good stuff.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Thanks!

[TALLI2]

what is the name of the song?

[TheDeej42]

A friend of mine downgraded the system on that to put on a SNES emulator. It was a complicated process; he was researching for days.

My suggestion is looking up "Pandora's Battery." From what I understand, it's a simple mod that lets you downgrade.

[rollbar17]

i like the radio y100 cool i have a family guy video and ATV off road fury blazing trails that game rules and starwars battlefront 2 and the new one i like the psp

[rollbar17]

i have just plane 40 not 40,000 just 40 i have the sucks shuffle i am upgrading but i dont know what i want to upgrade too i might get theis or the new nano just a bigger one

[jex5000]

If You use pandora it won't brick you just need someone to have a downgraded psp to do it for you

[thedeicide]

The psp is a good little piece of technoligy.

Sad thing is the movie.

You need a special program to format your films so that the psp can play them.

(or you must buy the UMD Movies but they stoped making those)

The biggest improvement of the new psp is that you can now hook your psp to your TV and watch the movies on the tv instead of the psp.

(then again that's why we have DVD, HDDVD or Blueray.)

[SonicMegamanFan]

Nice review Biker, especially for both the Zune and the PSP, which I gotta say finally did the PSP some much deserved justice since way too many people put it down. Also, for the MP3 part of the review, 1,000 SONGS?! Holy crap! My MP3 only has a total of 82 songs on it right now! Why in God's name would you need so many songs??

[BikerTrashWolf]

why so many? I am hard on CD's as soon as I buy any album I rip it and only use the digital version.

just for example, just my BLS, Megadeth, andMetallica collection is 237 songs by it's self.

[BikerTrashWolf]

really like I said I think the only down side to the PSP is the lack of a shuffle feature and that all the folders can only be one layer deep... and the small capacity of the Pro Duo cars I have seen.

[mustanglovr5]

Nice, i saw some zakk wylde. that guy is amazing.

[BikerTrashWolf]

AMEN! I eventually want to get all his stuff. I only have Blessed hellride, Mafia, and Shot to hell right now.

[vonrojas]

WIN for the PSP. Although the zune is not great, I still have no love for I-pod. I should just go for the Soundwave MP3 :)

[yur1fan]

could you review energon downshift.

[ZeroFilth]

just a quick info there buddy , if you Brick your PSP , there is a safe and 100% good way to unbrick it , a friend always does it whenever it happens , no problems at all !

just look for it and you'll find , i think easily too , if i find out sumthing about it , i'll send ya ! peace brother ! from a fan in Brazil !

[BikerTrashWolf]

You talking about the Pandoras Battery?

I am about to get my nerve up and just do it.

[jetfire2004]

Holy crud 30Gb.

[paintballerseraph]

me too i listen to my zune when i go to sleep oh and have you charged it fully to the point were the battery on the screen was green and i find it alot easier to upload stuff onto my zune than my ipod wich i returned after a few days and the free software update is a great feature and you can sync wirelessly and buy songs when you hear them on the radio ive rambled enough great vid as usual

[BikerTrashWolf]

What do you mean buy the songs when you hear them on the radio?

And I had always heard that the ipod was better with file transfers... need to do more research I guess.

And dont feel bad. nobody rambles more than me, i figured this was going to be a 5 min review and look what it turned into. ;)

[paintballerseraph]

well when your listening to the radio and there are words going by on the bottom of the station and if you liked the song when its name appears under the station if you push the center button and the menu will come up and there will an option that says add to cart so next time you sync your zune you can buy that song you heard on the radio or keep it in the cart so you remember what its called

[paintballerseraph]

did you get the 3.0 update if so it comes with a clock and i didnt see it in the review just curious and dont worry your rambling is very entertaining keep doin what your doin

[BikerTrashWolf]

no I dont have 3.0 yet.

[bgressman82]

OPETH RULES!!!

[BikerTrashWolf]

my brother just gave me The Watershed and Damnation last night. Not at all like what I was expecting! I figured they where just some generic Cookie monster metal group but those guys can honestly play :D

[Razorgeist]

Oh shnike I love Orgy too!

[BikerTrashWolf]

I like them but I only have dreams in digital. all the rest of my stuff for deleted some how.

[monkeyddaniel]

I have to agree,the Zune is not very impressive.You should check out SarahMLP's 4th Gen Ipod review.Its a great player and Sarah's review does a good job of showing off all the cool new features.

[wesleyv1]

someone get bill gates on the phone tell em that bikertrash wants to kick his ass lol

[BikerTrashWolf]

not just for the zune either... although I would like to Knee cap him for the way the zune software is designed.

[Uberjoe19]

I had an 8GB 1G iPod Touch, and some fucker stole it only a week after I bought it. If I ever find out who stole it, I'm going to kill them.

PS Can I haz $300 for the 16GB one? PLZ?!

[BikerTrashWolf]

I cant give you 300 dallars. I am tryign to save for a PS3 at the moment.

[Sportimus]

Better off with an XBOX 360... ;)

[BikerTrashWolf]

I know, but a PS3 costs about the same as a blue ray player so I just kill 2 birds with one stone. thr 360 has alot more games I want to play.

[GodOfPlague]

Lots of companies are reasing similiar chargers to that as USB port is more universally compatible. You can get "real" chragers from 3 rd parties designed to fit soley with the zune.

I got the wall, auto and compu ack from Inspire of of amazon for a good price. They stop charging the device when the battery fills, they are great

[GodOfPlague]

I love my zune, I like having the radio function Ipods don't have that. It's great for walks when I'm sick of my music.

Got some vids for the office.

I got mine for $59 last year after thanksgiving. It's crap brown for sure but I l;ove it. I really did love my PSP too. ut I traded it for a DS because I could play DS games with my friends.

[GodOfPlague]

YOu can get a radio from IHome with a dock for the zune in the top it will charge it and the sound is good.

Get the inspire charger for the car sve yourself some headaches :)

But the battery does indeed suck no matter what

[BikerTrashWolf]

O.o!!!!! plane jane car charger!!!!!!! you are a saint dude :D.. well like a saint seeing as you are still alive and what not.

Saint of Plague!!!!

My mom has kinda jacked my DS at the moment... thinking about buying a DS lite to replace it.

[GodOfPlague]

A saint wow thats a new one. :)

But I'm afraid if I am both the saint and god of plague at once my head will Implode causing the universe to collapse in on itself.

While that will destroy all transformer knockofs ever made it will negatively impact other aspects of life...

I guess I'll have to stick with mean old git who is occasionally helpful.

Anyway Metroid Hunters multiplayer can be a lot of fun online. In the low g levels you can use your mines to fly... crazy way to fight.

[BikerTrashWolf]

never played hunters online... I have never had a good online playing experiance.

I once tried playing Starscraft online. I have never recovered from the smiting I received.

I uninstalled the game after that I could not even play offline after that without having a breakdown.

[Maverickhunter253]

I nevered knew you like metroid why not do a review some day

[GodOfPlague]

There is nothing better than equiping a freeze ray dropping on someone like a spider from above, freezing them just before you land on them and then loading them up for extra damage from behind as they sit there frozen wondering what the hell is going on.

I did that to my cousin a few times he thought his internet was lagging, I told him what happened before he called tech support though.

[BikerTrashWolf]

cool! Shame you had to tell him that and he couldnt just figure it out.

[Southpawpartner]

very nice BT. i have a smaller music library than you do, i only have like.....less than 200 songs on my cellular device. and yess, i ment 200, not 2000.

[JTMitchell87]

Oh Biker, Biker... I've got almost 10,000... Haha...

I'm seriously thinking about getting a Zune either from... A certain paying place... Or Christmas. I love the price point for the 120GB and the fact you can listen to the radio on it. Not to mention that personalized engraving choices.

If I remember correctly the "Social" is where you can stream music to and from other Zunes in the near area.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Oh... I must have mis-remembered. Sorry.

Sounds like that would be right.

One thing I like about the Zune is the "Zune pass" 14.99 a month and unlimited downloads, you can keep the songs as long as you want, but once you cancel your subscription you loose them all. it is basicly Netflicks for music but you cant build a DVD library of the gods with it.

[icyfreshboy]

ipod will rule you will regret getting a zune

[JTMitchell87]

I've used Zunes before... I doubt I'll regret getting one.

[THeGreaterG00d]

haha well guess who's zune is frozen

[BikerTrashWolf]

Not mine, I am listening to it right now.

[Sportimus]

Thanks for doing this, BikerTrash. This helped me a lot. I think I'm going to just get the iPod Nano 4Gen now. The PSP is cool, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. Maybe down the road, but not now.

[icyfreshboy]

zunes suck but psp's and ipods rock

[JTMitchell87]

It's all a matter of choice.

[icyfreshboy]

what are you talking about i have an ipod ouch 1g 8gb and it kicks any zune's ass

[JTMitchell87]

8GB? How does that kick a 120GB Zune's ass again when the Zune is cheaper? Especially when I have over 30GB in music alone.

Again, it's a matter of choice. I find the iPod touch/iPhone to be a pointless purchase due to the cost of it and the limit of hard drive space.

[icyfreshboy]

the ipod touch goes up to 32gb and it has the app store, internet, and a touch screen! And if your going to get a 120gb ipod classic for the same fucking price! So get a fucking ipod!

[JTMitchell87]

120GB iPod classics is $250, 32GB Touch is $400.

I wouldn't call those the same price at all.

[BikerTrashWolf]

Ok let me rephrase that : When I bought this, it was the same price as a comparable Ipod.

[transformersprime]

i want an ipod touch but this is NZ, theyre $380 and im only 13. if i want one for xmas i have to put in $180 for it (parents pay the rest) lol.

[BikerTrashWolf]

thats a good bit of cash... I have no idea what they cost here.

[beastwars21]

so bikertrash are you having any luck with finding me grimlock?

[BikerTrashWolf]

I have not seen a grimlock in months man :(

[GothicVain]

Even the beard had a close up XD

[BikerTrashWolf]

Very much so.

[GothicVain]

Great review though ^^

[SuperHotRodGx]

i only 90 songs

[darfjono]

ZOOMBEARD

[BikerTrashWolf]

Yeah I know huh... Just I cant stand to have the camera looking over my shoulder so yall are blessed with a super extream close up. Do you feel fortunate yet ;)

[TheTransformerGuy]

[gamecrazycatgreen]

[sparkofamaximal]
