Top 10 Video Game Controllers of All-Time
18 hours 11 mins ago
Some new information is revealed about the next PSP. Some of what you have heard isn't exactly true. This seems to set some of the record straight. Some of the features being promised like Touchscreen will not be available in the next PSP. UMD is definitely gone.
Sony has contended there is no PSP2 and they are telling the cold hard truth. There won’t be a PSP2 coming for at least a couple more years. That doesn’t mean that some new PSP hardware isn’t headed our way soon enough. Think more aesthetic changes, more along the lines of DS > DSLite but more substantial of a change. We here at PlayStation LifeStyle are ready to “debunk” or “confirm” some of the rumors that are floating around the net.

In this one the insider says it is the PSP2 and it has Dual analog sticks.
But both of them agree that it has rounded edges, sliding screen, and no UMD drive.
I guess we will have to wait until E3 to see who's telling the truth.
They're not contrary, just talking about two different products. The only thing is . . . which one is coming for what they are talking about.
God of War
Tekken 5
Silent Hill Origins
Final Fantasy Crisis Core
Castlevania DX
Syphon Filter Dark Mirror
Syphon Filter Logan's Shadow
Killzone Liberation
Patapon
Burnout
Twisted Metal Head-On
Medal of Honor
Yet To Come:
Final Fantasy Dissidia
Parasite Eve
Assassin's Creed
Motorstorm
PJ Monsters
Nothing there for you
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
Final Fantasy Agito XIII
The 3rd Birthday
PSP's got it goin' on.
Wait...
But Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Final Fantasy Agito, and Assassin's Creed may be interesting when they eventually come out.
You forgot Tales of the world:Radiant mythology and Final fantasy tactics:War of the lions.
But how would you play some of the current games that are only on the UMD if that thing doesn't use UMD discs???
ONLY THE BEST DAMN GAME ON THE PSP.
....where'd i put my DS...
That said . . . 'Tis a shame if they don't go with touch screen. I'm talking touch screen, not with a stylus. But then again, this isn't about the next NEW PSP, but just a different "version." In any case, the next PSP will have to be awesome and have a LOT of awesome features for me to buy it. I already have one, and seldom use it. I never play games on it, but use it Portal-wise and for Remote Play (which seriously. needs. to be. increased!!!)
I sure hope the writer of this article is wrong about this, because the PSP he described sounds very disappointing.
I agree it needs a touch screen, it would be a big mistake not to include the feature it's competition has.
And I will be in shock if there's not a PS3 price drop by the time E3 is over, I'm actually surprised Sony didn't announce a price cut at GDC.
Besides, being a bit cryptic is something he's learned to do actually due to Sony changing some things after his source gives him info (then his source comes along and tells him this has changed . . . but after he already posted the old info.) Made him look unreliable so he's learned to watch what he says because things can definitely change with Sony.
I agree the PSP version he described doesn't seem too hot. Not interesting to me either, but it gives a bit of hope to consider that it's not a whole new PSP but just really a "version" of it like the PSP slim is to the original PSP. This means there's still a good hope that when Sony creates/releases a whole new PSP (PSP2) it may be awesome enough for me to spend money on it
But then again . . . are they therefore moving to cartridges? The little discs that nintendo had?
But no, they won't move to cartridges. A cartridge won't hold much data as a UMD.
Or maybe they'll have 2 PSP models, the normal one and a cheap one without the UMD drive.
i mean umd's are fine
