Title: PSP on fire,new game announced
Post by: maxy on July 07, 2010, 02:11:42 PM: Quote
How does Disney plan to reinvigorate Split/Second: Velocity sales? By porting the game to PSP and PSPgo of course.

Due autumn, the conversions promise "unique" controls to fit "Sony's premier handheld game platform". Plus, there's to be one new track, some extra challenges and local multiplayer for up to four (humans).

The press release doesn't mention a developer.

And it's trash, easily the worst port of the year.

Only this release will likely be $30-$40, at least minis are like five bucks.
