No worries. He also said that the PS3 game that he'd worked on previously was ported to the PSP2 in less than 1 week and it was running at 60FPS.

 

*if true*

holy fuck

Yeah, never thought I'd see a PS3 game at 60fps

Who cares about japanese devs and their shitty outdated games? I wanna shoot some fools on call of duty while waiting for my next class to start

Modern FPS games are actually perfect for handhelds, since most of the levels (or "chapters" within a level) don't last more than 15-20 minutes anyway.

$250 for a handheld 3D PSP+, more like

PSP2 sounds more and more like the modern version of Nomad.  Sony really is the new Sega. 

way back when, i bought a nomad on clearance at toys 'r' us for $50

other than the 30 minute battery life it was pretty awesome for the time

years later, sold it on ebay with a couple of games for around $250

Didn't listen to the podcast,so cant confirm if true,but

Shane Bettenhausen apparently said on the Weekend Confirmed podcast that a lot of companies are developing the exact same SKU of a game across 360, PS3 and PSP2

It looks like 3DS ports bitching will be nothing,this is really shaping to be a port machine
Pricing will be interesting

[Shaka Khan]

If true: no lessons have been learned. Sony is just being Sony.

I love my PSP, I really do, but I wish the ratio of original content to ports would greatly shift to the former's scale. I can't think of a single original western third party game on the PSP that turned out good.

[Shaka Khan]

Why don't just play the 360/PS3 on that same telly, they're cheaper

All the stuff about ports is silly. ds has just as many remakes/ports.

[Eel O'Brian]

every handheld mainly spits out portable iterations of console games, going all the way back to gameboy

i don't understand the argument against it, really, but then again i could see the appeal of destroying a fascist factory on mars in something like red faction: pocket guerrilla while sitting on the toilet, so i may not be the one to ask

[Shaka Khan]

[youtube=560,345]udEywtrjBkw[/youtube]

Oh yeah, Crush was awesome.

All the stuff about ports is silly. ds has just as many remakes/ports.

But the DS was dominated with awesome original content to make up for them.

[Himu]

And psp doesn't have original content? I'd say psp has a better balance between old and new than the ds.

Seems to me, like usual, people like to glorify the Nintendo lineup while ignoring the bulk of the competitors lineup.

We could look it from the bright side,at least some of those games will be good,third party is strong this gen
But chances for third party unique content will be zero and for a handheld that is important.Also i don't expect that devs will put too much effort into PSP2 version...it will be expensive,it has zero userbase,"core" userbase doesn't care about handhelds...from western standpoint
3DS is looking again as DS,some quirky "low" spec device

For Japan it will probably be good,people have moved to handhelds...hd consoles owners will probably beg for PSP2 ports,lol

Games are likely to be minimally $50 or even $60...hey it's the same version,if anything it should be more expensive because you can walk and play

[Shaka Khan]

No, it doesn't?

Let's not resort to me posting lists, only for you to dismiss half of what I consider good, and vice versa.

I guess in the end the entire issue of "for/against ports" is highly subjective.

[Smooth Groove]

There's no way the PSP can contain PS3/360 power in a tiny chassis.  If it could be done, Sony would have released a Wii sized PS3 because in Japan, smaller is always better (That's what he said).  

Putting aside battery life, how the heck is the PSP2 gonna disperse all the heat from generating so much power?  Unless there's been some secret chip that's gonna overtake the whole portable device market, I don't see it happening.  

PSP2 sounds more and more like the modern version of Nomad.  Sony really is the new Sega.

Nomad was pretty cool.  I didn't follow gaming news that closely back then and was amazed when I first saw it in a store.  At first, I thought it was just an updated Game Gear but then I saw it running Streets of Rage perfectly.   I would have gotten one if not for the initial high price and ridiculous battery life.  It was only portable in the sense that a gaming laptop is portable.  

[Himu]

I don't mind ports.

But there's just as much original content on the psp.

[Raban]

Let's not resort to me posting lists, only for you to dismiss half of what I consider good, and vice versa.

It's not hard to believe you'd do the same when faced with a list of PSP's non-port lineup. Both consoles have a pretty robust selection, it's just what you're looking for and what you like.

[Shaka Khan]

But there's just as much original content on the psp.

The idea of derailing this thread with lists is very tempting lol.

[Eel O'Brian]

looks like they're leveraging themselves to have a healthy downloadable service this time, so they'll probably snag a bunch of ported stuff from the app store which can't be pulled off on the 3DS, which is a pretty smart move since apple doesn't demand or pay for exclusivity

[Shaka Khan]

I don't question their existence, just the rate of original releases when directly compared to the DS. It's a no brainer for me, tbh.

[Smooth Groove]

Top 20 PSP games on gamerankings are all ports or spinoffs.  Whatever original content there was on PSP obviously wasn't very good. 

[Raban]

Lumping this in with ports doesn't make any sense. Daxter may be a spin-off, but it's exclusive to the PSP and should count. I just pulled up the list on Metacritic and I can pull out at least 15 out of the top 20 games that are original content. If I listed them, however, I predict copious splitting of hair.

[Smooth Groove]

Spinoffs are not original enough.  Also, gamerankings is always right. 

[Raban]

Spinoffs are not original enough.  Also, gamerankings is always right. 

Thankfully, this kind of stipulation eliminates a huge chunk of the DS's library as well.

[Shaka Khan]

I don't mind spinoffs, if they don't play EXACTLY like the games they spun off, otherwise they might as well be considered ports. A new story (lol) simply isn't enough justification.

Looking at you GoW/GTA PSP games.

[Himu]

For every Final Fantasy Tactics or Disgaea 2 port, there's a R-Type Tactics, Holy Invasion of Privacy Badman or Jeanne D'Arc. This is without getting into the psp's vast puzzle library: Practical Quotient 2, Crush, Echochrome, Lumines, Patapon and more. You can complain about lack of original rpgs, but then there's stuff like Gurumin, Cladun, ZHP, and stuff like Parasite Eve 3 and Final Fantasy Type Zero on the way.

Whoever complains about psp lacking original content really hasn't researched their system and sounds like they're bitching just to be bitching. People also forget the two psp GTA's, Loco Roco, Rock Band Unplugged, Downstream Panic, Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, Half Minute Hero, Pursuit Force.

PSP has a lot of ports and remakes, but it also has a whole slew of original content to the point where it doesn't really matter.

Of course not.They will probably shout that from rooftops,though.

I think of it as high end vs low end PC...device must just be capable to take PS360 content without some massive investments

Edit: but seriously himu. Lists are a bannable offense. You should know better.

[Himu]

I really only listed random shit off the top of my head, but anyone who complains about psp ports and remakes is probably just a big bitch anyways.

I reiterate:

who the fuck cares?

Tactics Ogre: LUCT psp is a remake, who cares. It was also released once and only once, in English, in a shitty port to the playstation with a crappy translation, over 10 years ago.

I truly think people who complain about ports/remakes are idiots, because surely they haven't played every game ever, right??!!! Either that or they're as narrow minded as I thought. But then again, we're talking about gamers.

I can only stomach 2 hours of ps3/360 gaming a week that isn't Super Street Fighter IV.

Also Cladun is better than every ps3/360 game released last year that wasn't Super Street Fighter IV.

Don't worry, I agree with you Himu-chan. The PSP is a really good portable that way too many gamers discount because of its supposedly unimpressive original game lineup. There's almost nothing for the PSP on the surface, and that includes trying to pan through reviews for the cream of the crop. Most of my favorite games on the PSP had pretty divisive reviews, and finding them is a treat.

I still love the DS, but comparing the two side-by-side and declaring one or the other the winner is futile. Both are awesome, both have shit-loads of excellent games, and as a gamer you'd probably want both.

[Himu]

psp vs ds is the best system war since snes vs genesis.

it's no wonder why they're the only two systems worth owning this gen*.
