Thanks to GameSpot for its article discussing Sony's showcase of new features/software for its forthcoming PSP handheld, including confirmation that "up to 16 PSPs can connect together using the device's wireless LAN... without the need of a central hub device", as well as "several new PSP games, including a version of the anime-inspired PlayStation 2 shooter Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex... [and Harvest Moon and Need for Speed conversions.]" 1UP has further information and pictures, including the unveiling of Talkman, new PSP software which "accepts voice input from a microphone peripheral.. [and lets] a multi-lingual cartoon bird named Max... translate comments in one language into another."

SOCOM for PSP by AvantLegion · 2004-07-12 19:18 · Score: 3, Interesting

If the talk of a SOCOM game for PSP is true, the wireless multiplayer feature will be pure bliss. I can very easily imagine SOCOM battles going on across the university coffee shop. Productivity is guaranteed to plummet.
