lol, like woah a built in mic

[jiji]

More colors? So we won't get that dithering effect seen in so many games?

[Kestastrophe]

Nothing like introducing a more expensive sku to make an already expensive console more palatable

[drohne]

that's a product of 16 bit rendering, so no, a new screen wouldn't help with that

[Smooth Groove]

Crap, I just got the red PSP. 

I'll be really pissed of the new model turns out to be hackable as well. 

That $650 PS3 is ridiculous though.  No one is going to want it. 

[ShogunOfFear]

 @$650

Sony just doesn't seem to get it.  They keep moving in the wrong direction with price, this gen is so twilight zone.

[cool breeze]

That is what I am hoping for.  Ghosting on the PSP is horrible.

I also hope it isn't so damn expensive over here.

I want to buy a PSP soon.

Is it worth waiting for the 3000 model?

If ghosting really is gone, then yes.

As much as I hate playing PSP in a boxed off window on my TV, it at least showed the potential of how sharp the game could look.  The PSP screen right now makes things look smeared and all that.

[Ganhyun]

OMG! $650!! I must go out and buy it!!

Yea right. Price needs to go other way Sony........ 

[Eric P]

how about a screen with less ghosting

fuck annoying

[cool breeze]

Not much different in terms of looks.  Mainly the edges and now rounded, there is a mic next to the PSP logo, and instead of saying 'home' on the button, it has the PS logo.

[Smooth Groove]

If they're going to come up with a new revision so quickly, they need to do more than just add a brighter LCD. 

Make the screen less scratchable as well so gamers don't have to attach image quality decreasing screen protectors.    I love my Zune's unscratchable, glass screen. 

[cool breeze]

They did say that the PSP screen will have less glare in direct sunlight.

[Eel O'Brian]

man they just don't want to let go of that high-end model shit, do they

did they not pay attention to the gasps from the audience when they first announced the $600 price tag

you can get a 160 gig HDD and buy your own dlc for less

[Smooth Groove]

They did say that the PSP screen will have less glare in direct sunlight.

That's good but an unscratchable screen would still be more handy.  I usually turn on my PSP when I'm in bed.  

[cool breeze]

They announced the 160 gig for America:

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune PS3 Bundle with 160GB PS3 System

The 160GB PS3 system announced at the GC will be available here as part of a new limited-edition bundle that includes the hardware, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune game, a PLAYSTATION Network voucher for PAIN, and a DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller. We’re hearing from a lot of you that more PS3 storage space is important, particularly since the launch of our video delivery service, and this new model delivers more memory and a whole lot of content packed-in. The 160GB PS3 has all of the same functionality as the new 80GB PS3 that’s popping up on retailer shelves now, but obviously has twice the HDD space, so you can build levels to your heart’s content in LittleBigPlanet, download a ton of videos, and still have room for your entire music collection. The Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune 160GB PS3 bundle launches in November for $499.99 (MSRP).

$500 with Uncharted.


New PSP is same price for America, so $170 alone, $200 in bundle.  The bundle also now comes with a 4 gig memory stick and Ratchet Size Matters.

[Eel O'Brian]

that's a little better, but a $350 system with a pack-in was where they needed to go

[Smooth Groove]

My watch has a sapphire glass and it DOESN'T FUCKING scratch.  After 5 years of usage I have exactly 0 scratches on the glass while the metal band is scratched as hell.

I suppose handhelds don't incorporate sapphire glass screens, do they?

Don't know what material the Zune screen is made of but it's unscratchable as well. 

[cool breeze]

Sorry for the confusion then.

I just want a black one now since I made the mistake of getting the silver glitter one with the slim.  Hopefully the standalone one is black.

Oh, and some more info on the PS3 Uncharted Bundle:

-- PAIN PLAYSTATION Network Voucher* -- PAIN boldly tackles a rarely explored area of video-gaming ... comedy. The unique mechanic of the game allows the player to load a character into a human-sized, ultra-powerful slingshot, and fire the character into an active, physics-controlled environment, filled with precarious and humorous situations. Download PAIN from PLAYSTATION Store (http://store.playstation.com) to your PS3 system with the included voucher.

You get Pain for free. TOTALLYW ORTH IT NOW

Didnt they say they were done making SKUs at E3?

DS3/Sixaxis keyboard.  Cool feature is that the actual keyboard itself is used as a mousepad.



durrrr keyboard

That looks uncomfortable

wait until you see the enthusiastic posts when they announce the terabyte ps3 with Motorstorm 2 and a Quest For Booty PSN voucher for $999 US dollars

[Eel O'Brian]

i skipped the slim, will pick this up on announcement of hack

[cool breeze]

Thanks for the updates, swaggaz. I almost can't keep up updating the OP

No problem, but I am too lazy to re-upload other photos of the new PSP to tinypic.  So the others are on gaf or other sites or something.  Nothing is really worth seeing at other angles except that the memory card slot is slightly different.

[Jansen]

they'll release a psp with no ghosting about the same time as the wii stops selling.

[cool breeze]

that keyboard can't be real.

It's real, and it even needs to be charged separate from the PS3 controller since it is wireless.

Warhawk™: Operation: Fallen Star expansion pack
The third expansion pack for mighty online warfare title Warhawk, Operation: Fallen Star introduces the remote, forested Tau Crater – the site of a crashed Chernovan warship containing invaluable experimental technology. With the Chernovans trying desperately to salvage the ship, the Eucadians have arrived with a view to stealing it for themselves. This pack brings ten new battlefields to the Warhawk experience – as well as the Infantry Jetpack – a personal rocket pack that allows soldiers to soar above the fray of battle into the aerial realm of the Warhawks themselves.

now that's an announcement, i always wanted a cool rocketeer game

[Jansen]

i wouldn't buy this new model unless ghosting was almost completely eliminated and is still easily hackable.

lol, microphone

[cool breeze]

Why couldn't they just put it between the handles like the 360 one?

How the fuck am I supposed to type with that?

I'm still trying to figure that one out.

now that's an announcement, i always wanted a cool rocketeer game

Jetpacks in almost anything are good.  Also, if you want a Rocketeer game, check out Dark Void.

[Van Cruncheon]

Don't you have like 4 another PSPs?

What's in this new model that pushes you to get one? I don't get it.

i just love the psp irrationally, it's like the coolest thing ever

ds > psp

demi approves.

[Akala]

I might actually jump on that 4gig MS bundle.

[Tundra]

It's like Sony got scared seeing last months NPD numbers, and are desperately trying to correct that now with their new SKUs' pricing...

[siamesedreamer]

Where are y'all getting the $650 from?

[demi]

Where are y'all getting the $650 from?

Think that was the Euro price

[Tucah]

Might get the PSP 3000, I still have my launch PSP.

[MCD]

i sold my launch psp, would get this for sure with PE3, agito and KH.

[Jansen]

nvm question has been answered.

[bork]

I'm generally a sucker and will buy hardware updates, but uh...this doesn't seem like enough to bother with this time around.  Guess I need to see some screens of what makes the screen better.

I wonder if the real reason this is coming out is because they found some new way to prevent them from being moddable?

Most likely, they're selling a ton of hardware and not much software.  Would people continue buying PSPs though if they can't get free games?

[tiesto]

I skipped the PSP Slim, this new model sounds like it may be worth picking up. Was playing Crisis Core recently, and it really was apparent how shitty the PSPhat's screen is compared to the DSL.

[Fragamemnon]

PSP is going on the Christmas list. I really need to play Wild Arms XF and R-Type Command!

[Bocsius]

Sony to Microsoft:

"Hey, we can continue to not get it, too!"

[cool breeze]

EyePet actually looks really interesting to me, probably because I dig augmented reality stuff.  The drawing objects and using them also looks cool.

And Wipeout HD isn't dead!

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/08/20/legendary-wipeout-franchise-coming-to-psn-with-wipeout-hd-details-here/

It also has split screen now.

[Raban]

It is glossy plastic? If so, fuck Sony.

And also, still holding out for the slimline PS3 before I dip again. I loved my PS3, but that thing is so fucking bulky, and every slimline console Sony has made is sexy as fuck.

[ferrarimanf355]

I may get the PSP 3000. I will never understand why Sony dropped BC in the PS3, though.  :'(

Warhawk trailer that shows of Jetpacks.

It seems like they are more just for hovering.  Still cool and all, but I wanted Dark Void style flying with them.

[Himu]

So this doesn't have BC.

Meh.

looks awesome.  might get me back into warhawk

[Mupepe]

They just don't get it!

The system is selling like shit because its so expensive.

Adding more stuff no one but a select few care about and raising the price will do sweet fuck all.

still selling more than the 360!  ba-dum psh!

spoiler (click to show/hide)

am i late with that?

[Raban]

Meh. 

Just get a slimline PS2, foo!

[Jansen]

still doesn't have any real outstanding games tho. maybe that will change soon?

i think it'll be like the planes, where you have a hover mode and a flying mode, but i think your guy will always be in a vertical "standing" type position

this is out next week, awesome

[Hollywood]

They probably put the new anti-pandora mother board in this one for good. Silms have been showing up with them for a while, so they're more difficult to hack.

[JustinP]

that's a little better, but a $350 system with a pack-in was where they needed to go
