^Looks like Sony are serious about the PSP in 2009 which is good news. Already looks a lot stronger than 2008.

The trailer for Motorstorm: Arctic Edge- http://elhabib.at/2009/02/24/motorstorm-fuer-playstation-portable-motorstorm-arctic-edge-announcement-trailer/

i cant wait to see the assassins creed psp bundle. i wonder what color it will be. the hannah montanna bundle is violet... looks like that bundle alone will be a huge profit to sony, since that girl has alot of fans~anbu-black-ops

And the naysayers will still say the PSP is dying. But 2009 looks even better now.

Is anyone going to get the Hannah Montana PSP bundle?:roll:

I'm personally excited to try LBP.

Err Rock Band to PSP? Is that even true, should be fun with all the instruments with one PSP lol.

But still can't wait till Assassin's Creed or LBP. =)

OK, even more news- Killzone: Liberation 2 has been rumoured.

This is excellent news, and we got Resistannce Retribution coming next month.....

Woop!

Dear god, the PSP has climbed out of it's grave. Think I'll pick one up soon.CannedWorms

Even though I never thought the PSP dead, I'm glad to see someone else write that.

looks like sony is serious this time. thanks dsi for the motivation you gave to sony~ lol.anbu-black-ops

Now all sony needs too do is get a RPG that gos online like Untoldlegens WC but make the lvl go up too 100-150 with sum co-op and pvp and that will set it off rite there. And that would boost the psp sky high.

LBP and Rockband? Trash...

Assassins Creed and Motorstorm sound nice.

Awesome!!! Ever since I've played the first one, I wanted another Killzone game. This looks like it is going to be a really good year for the PSP!

LBP and Rockband? Trash...

Assassins Creed and Motorstorm sound nice.

Trash? Last I checked LBP (and I think Assassin's Creed too) on the PS3 got a 9.0. I wouldn't exactly call that trash, but to each his own I guess...

Assassin's Creed actually has a lot of detractors on some of the other forums. Apparently it's a solid game, but it can get quite repetitive. I'll still check it out though.

Well yeah I actually haven't played A.C. but I own LBP and it definitely deserves its 9.0.

OMG. I JUST SOLD MY PSP.

so now im going to have to buy, littlebigplanet, motorstorm, assassins creed, rock band, god of war, ratchet and clank and killzoen now...

Oh man..

Am I the only one who's wishing Arctic Edge comes out on PS3 too? Man, that would be FUN.

Also, the song in the trailer is Tick Tick Boom by The Hives.

I'm excited for Assassin's Creed and LittleBigPlanet.

I can see the online for LBP explode and become on of the PSP's top games.

More news-

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/33388/New-IP-to-be-announced-for-PSPFollowing on from John Koller's bold statements about an exciting E3 for PS3, SCEE has told MCV that new IP will feature in the line-up.

"SCEA's director of hardware marketing John Koller said earlier that: "At Destination Playstation we announced about half of the line up for the PSP this year, some fairly major, triple-A titles are coming for the back half of the year that are going to be announced in the coming months and at E3."

And an SCEE spokesperson has added to MCV that "we'll be outlining the release of additional, new and existing IPs for the platform in the coming months".

Some are already calling this July's event as the PSP E3, and it's certainly an exciting time for Sony's battling machine, though whether a brand new machine (possibly without UMD drive and with touch screen) will or will not be debuted is still up for debate."

So there's still some unannounced games for the PSP this year. I'm glad that Sony have kept their word on revitalising the PSP.

I guess we'll have to wait until June to put to rest all these PSP2 rumors and threads.

Yes! PSP is back from the dead :twisted:

But for me, it was getting alot of use, it was fresh :D
