Do you think the psp is dead?

[griffinx15]

well the title says it all
so what do you think

[Josh]

Meh, I don't think so. I know there's some games in '09 I'll be getting my hands on. *cough*Birth By Sleep

Psp3000 has just came out or is the psp is just begging the ps2 has official died though

[R1kk1]

Well, with Star Ocean: Second Evolution, Mana Khemia: Student Alliance and Phantasy Star Portable I'm quite happy and think that it will do well. I'm sure another Tales game will pop up sooner or later.

Yes, I think the PSP is dead...although the ghetto kids at my school tell me the PSP is still better. With the DSi coming out, well you know how it's going to be. On a side note, there are rumors of a "PSP 2" coming out in 2009

Well, I talked to Ellefanning about this the other day.

You see, obviously there are hardly any PSP games coming out, but the main reason for this is, surprisingly, all the hackers.

I know, it's crazy, but look at it this way: When people buy PSP's (which they are; they're selling really well), Sony expects them to buy a ton of games. But what people have been doing (except for me) is just hack their PSP and play games illegally. If they do that, they obviously won't need to buy any retail games, so Sony thinks "Hey! What's the point of publishing any more games in the US if nobody buys them?"

Yeah, I could be a lot meaner to hackers, but I bet any smart person could connect the dots from there.

Okay, enough ranting. As for whether the PSP is dead, I think that, if Sony markets the system in a new way, they could go and localize a ton of Japanese PSP games quickly and save it. Plus, they're coming out with a LEGIT program called AdHoc Party, where you can play a ton of different local PSP games in an XBL-esque format. That should help.

i noticed that also. it sucks. i prefer to play games i buy not download. unless the game is japanese only. but i still wouldnt download it. no point in playing what you cant read. but my friends dad does that with his PSP. modded it and now just downloads and uploads them to the PSP. but i will say its not worth it alot of times because it wont always play. or its purposely mistranslated. and because he modded it. the battery has a very hard time staying in place.

Have you not seen the PSP KRYPTONITE?!?!? It's over of the PSP, it's the new handheld X-Box that will be hot for next spring. It sucks that it will be premiered in Japan first, even though Microsoft is an American-based company. Wish I was in Japan when it comes out.

i think at this moment in time the psp is dead, but only because there aren't any good games out at the moment. As soon as some good games come out, i'm sure it will be more popular again. I still play my psp quite regularly.

I play my PSP every day, for at least 2 hours... o-o
