Developer Panel Gives Its Verdict On Sony's PSP Go

Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday June 10, 2009 @04:54AM from the thumbs-slanted-forward dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A panel of games industry veterans have given their final verdict on Sony's PSP Go. David Perry thinks the handheld is an excellent step in the right direction, though he wants it to include free-to-play games. Andrew Oliver of Blitz Games Studios was also optimistic: 'The iPod has demonstrated that, given a nice small device and a good interface and easy buying process, people are happy to download content. I think this will work and move gamers to accepting legal digital downloads, which is the way we want the market to go.' In total, a panel of eight developers discussed four key issues surrounding the handheld, including whether or not they will develop for it."

Re:Do they need to compete with Nintendo?? by Anonymous Coward · 2009-06-10 05:10 · Score: -1, Flamebait

It's curious that the Go is really making as many waves as it is. From what I've seen there really isn't that much difference between the Go and the standard PSP. The PSP is still a valid gaming platform, so i don't really see Sony's need to push this out unless they feel the need to release a new hand held every 6 months like Nintendo tends to do with the DS.
Sony = Niggers. Well, more like Sony = Chinks. Once you understand that, the things they do start to make sense!
