Future Sony MMOs Will Be On Consoles

The MTV Multiplayer Blog interviewed John Smedley, President of Sony Online Entertainment, about the future of MMOs. He discusses some of SOE's current projects and comments that they'll be focusing on consoles for all of their upcoming MMOs. "I would say that we would be one of the early adopters on [bringing MMOs to consoles], and we plan on becoming one of the dominant players in the MMO space on consoles." Sony's plans may include games for their hand-held console, the PSP. Smedley goes on to talk about bringing existing, popular franchises into MMO development, and remarks, "It's pretty safe to say that 'EverQuest' has not seen its last game."

    Question: My PSP has stopped working. I was playing Patapon when suddenly the thing just shutoff.

    Now if I move the power-switch, then greenlight blinks for a second and then shutsoff. Even when I plugin my AC adapter, it only turns yellow and refuses to turn-on. I've charged it overnight and it's still the same results. Any idea what has happened to my PSP and how to fix it? Bad fuse perhaps?
