I am going to write another post focusing on the games that helped me pass the time during my recent trip to Scotland. Yes, PSP and gaming have been a long time coming. Before I get to that article, I thought I would post a quick update about the PSP Digital Comics Store (and reader). [...]
I started playing around with the PSP Digital Comics store recently. Mostly because I was curious, partly because I am getting ready for a long flight, so I figured what the hell, may as well see if there is anything worth checking out to make my trip go by that much quicker. I have to [...]
Over the weekend I started transferring some of my digital movies included with my Blu-ray library to my PC. Lord of the Rings trilogy, X-Men trilogy, and a handful of others. Something to help pass the time while traveling. For the most part I have been selecting iTunes; I swear one of these days I [...]
I am not sure how many times I have written that I am giving my PSP one final chance to make itself useful; dare I say worthy of not sitting in my dresser drawer. Each time I write something along these lines I threaten to sell the PSP; cash it in for something while the [...]
It looks like some are speculating that a Sony announcement of a PSP2 will be received with a lukewarm reception at best. The 3DS might not be the only handheld coming out, as it’s widely rumored that Sony will announce a new PSP. Even if a PSP2 is unveiled, it won’t have a big impact, [...]
At least they are in Japan. According to joystiq, the week of May 24-30 saw PSP Go systems increase a lofty 45%, which sounds really good until you realize the system is dead last in those being tracked, selling a mere 1,232 systems. Ouch. Sony better bring some PSP excitement to E3 if they have [...]
Lock ‘n’ Chase? Maybe even Burgertime? I stumbled upon this article earlier this morning during my coffee time. There was once a time and place where I would keep up with all the classic games and collections as they were released onto newer platforms. From a historical standpoint I wanted to see the classics of [...]
As mentioned earlier, today is travel day. I cannot think of the last time I turned on my PSP, so if it does not get much use on this trip, it is high time to ditch the little brick. There is not a direct flight from Atlanta to Calgary, so I am going west (Salt [...]
I am not sure if this story from TheSixthAxis [always a great read] is also true for the U.S., but I thought it was interesting that the PSPgo is not doing well in Europe. A price drop and marking re-launch are imminent. I cannot think of the last time I played my PSP, but I [...]
I thought it was interesting to see that the PSP now offers some sort of digital comic reader application, with the PSP store currently offering 550 comics. SCEA has announced that all PSP owners can now select from hundreds of digital comics on the PlayStation Network; included in the gigantic list are the likes of [...]
Will simple (and much cheaper) games available on the iPhone/iTouch eventually kill off portable gaming as we know it today? Will systems such as the PSP become a thing of the past? PS3Center has an interesting article on this topic. Now here is the point of this article, what does Sony absolutely need to worry [...]
Just how well, or maybe I should say how poorly, is the PSPgo doing out of the gate? This just in from the Official PlayStation Blog: The PSPgo is driving additional momentum for the entire PSP platform. In its first three days on store shelves, top retail partners experienced a 300 percent lift in overall [...]
Longtime reader, contributor, and friend of CG, wco81, posted a link to this article which points out PSPgo flaws compared to Apple’s iPhone/iTouch platforms. You guessed right, price point of games is a central issue. Sony says serious gamers will always prefer pushbutton controls to a touchscreen. I think they’re right. I played the sword-and-sorcery [...]
OK, you have to admit that this is sort of, kind of, almost funny.
It would appear that no one, not even Sony has anything nice to say about the new PSPgo. GamerTell thinks they know why Sony is so silent on the PSPgo – because it is doing terrible. The PSPgo debuted October 1, 2009. It’s been out for nearly two weeks and Sony has yet to start [...]
