PSP2 is real, MK development team still retarded

Obviously never heard of an NDA, unless Sony forgot to make them sign one.

Now it's out in the open, hoping we hear some specs. If they get the support out of the gate, 3DS V. PSP2 might be less of a massacre this time around... Although I doubt it, what with the 3DS's gimmick and all.

Hoping for stick(s) not nub(s), physical media and not a deluge of inferior ports of current gen console games like the PSP suffered early in it's life.

Word

that's a lot to ask from a company thatthinks they could box a steaming pile of shit and sell 5 million at launch.

Sony is likely to announce the first details of this Jan 27th, hoping to take the steam out of Nintendo's 3DS presentation today.

I dunno. I have a hard time giving a fuck about the PSP2. I don't give a fuck about the PSP and there are still like 10 games I'm looking to get for it (in addition to the 20 or so odd titles I have now). Pretty bad.

I'm a bit the same. I don't really want a home console experience "on the go" and Nintendo knows this. Games like Picross and Prefessor Layton are what I want handheld with a quick blast of Mario or something here or there. Not deep and long shooters.

Still, if the other rumors I've gleaned from the internet are true (still on UMD and PS3 powered), then I might take a second look.

I'll also put money on some type of 3D screen to hold off the 3DS, even if it's a glasses-based one.

Boom. Code-named NGP (Next Gen Portable) it has an OLED screen, front and back touch panels and 3 axis motion sensing. Also has 3G and Wi-Fi for internet.

And thank the fucking lord, the games are on memory stick and not download only. It'll be out before Christmas.

Maybe next time you can snag the by-line, tiger. Try to keep up.

*walks into office*

Maybe next time you could get the whole story instead of masturbating over pictures of the handheld and being concerned about who posted things first.

The coming handheld war might be hot this time, instead of being a one-sided bloodbath.

I dunno, Sony will have to come out hot. It's not like they didn't have the more powerful hardware this time around...

Pretty sure the back-side touch control is for penis controlled games.

Also, if that Uncharted shot is real and not pre-rendered, I'm betting one hour battery life.

Considering who we're talking about I didn't take any screen shots seriously. These are guys who made 'target video trailers' a notorious term a few years ago. Even the just released PSP2 trailer is nothing but concepts and such, just like Microsoft's project natal debut trailer way back.

I guess we'll get some hard stuff next E3. Maybe some hands on at that point.

I mean, I feel bad that we bukkake'd any news from 3DS and here we are all skeptical about PSP-2 - but anybody who released PSPGo with serious prospects in mind needs to be in the hot seat.

Just read that they were playing Uncharted at the event, so it is legit. Fuck me.

Also reading what Kalyx just posted reminded me of the Killzone original trailers. Good times.

Probably more likely to get a "PSP2" than a 3DS, just off the basis that the games will probably be more in line with what I want to play. I have played my PSP and my DS equally, but enjoy my PSP more for the games it can power.

That said, I won't get either during launch. The NGP or whatever will have to come down in price for me to want it, probably.

The fact that their plans are for it to eventually be a portable PS3 has almost got me sold on it. Play your game at home on your PS3, save it to the cloud and then pick up on the NGP. Sounds pretty good to me.

Holy shit that thing is huge, but I don't caaaaare

Also, let the price guessing game begin!

$250?

No way 250. No way it can be that low. Not sure how 3G would make it to the US either. 300 at bare minimum I think; doubt it would go higher than 400.

I like that it uses flash drives but honestly I bought the PSP and I rarely play it. So I dunno if there's a point in getting this anytime soon.

I'm curious to see if it'll run apps or not. Probably not, but it would be cool. It has 3G, so put Skype on there, and it could double as a phone.

So yeah, unless they put a super awesome exclusive game on PSP2, I don't see myself getting hyped for it.

Valkirya Chronicles 4 would sway me.

The fact Sony hasn't revealed the price could be a potentially big issue since one of the last things Nintendo waited to announce was the battery life seeing as it is a bit low compared to their previous models.

If the device was going to be $200 - $300, then Sony wouldn't have wasted any time to reveal the price to give a quick counter hit at the 3DS but the rumor price might be between $350-$399 with Sony loosing a lot of money production cost-wise.

It looks cool..but I am just not excited. Like others have said, it would need to have a pretty cool line-up to impress me. I am leaning more towards the Nintendo camp for my next handheld. I eventually got a PSP and I enjoyed it..but not as much as my DS.

I don't want SixAxxis control on my portable.

Also, I know that;'s just demoing the various functions, but I dislike the whole "tapping" on the touch screen deal.

IMO This will be better than the 3DS... A COD game is all it needs

If you don't think there will be a COD game for 3DS, there's no hope ;)

Yeah but FPS controls on DS aren't great.
Plus friend codes suck, where as the NGP has friends list and so and so.
