Anyway, the scant rumours are that PSP 2 will be announced at this
year's E3 expo in California in May, with the new machine arrive at the
end of this year. The mooted improvements

  • The screen is gorgeous
  • The loads are faster
  • Improved buttons
  • Internal flash 8GB
  • Possible touch-screen
  • Possible built-in camera
  • Uses UMD
  • Better battery Life

 

Who else here is really exited about this.

It's just a PSP Lite not a big deal at all. Unless they are adding a second analog stick the redesign doesn't really concern me.

Ya ^ if there's no second analog it's useless :P i mean it's sad that you can buy a Wii for the same price as a PSP (though they finally did drop the $250 price tag)

The price tag before the most recent price drop was $200 not $250.

Will it be backwards compatible with PSP1 games? If so, I'd definately wait until the end of the year for the PSP2.

Dont be so ignorant. They're talking about a re-designed "PSP Slimline" like they did with the PS2, not a next gen PSP.

This whole topic is **** The guy never 'confirmed' a psp2, he merely made indication that it would be stupid for sony not to make one sometime later in the future. How the hell do you get 'the end of this year'?? There's no **** indication! and 8 gig's of flash memory? nowhere! This guy just said something he shouldn't have to the press and they ran with it thinking it was an official word and an official confirmation.

Sony would be smart to revamp the current PSP.  The changes made along side a price drop would boost sales, and help give developers even more of a reason to develop for the handheld.

did we need confirmation?  come on.  We knew a new PSP was on the way.  The only thing that matters is how long?  And I can garentee you it's gonna be well over a year.

As someone above pointed out Sony explicitly came out and said this is something that will happen "someday." Edit: And your feature list is purely speculation with no facts backing them up besides internet rumors.

i call BS on the hole touch screen idea.

the only way in my mind they can make it more "pocket friendly" would to make it thinner. however it will still be around the same size.

just hope people dont put it in some tight jeans and then sit down because they want to do a cracker thin design. *snap*

 

i also hope they aren't getting ride of the memory cards as a sign of ... aw fawk they haxed their psp they baugth. i knows we can make a new one with more restictions.

 

if they want to tickle my pickle, better screen when it comes to outside play.

a remote with a screen on it.

more video formats then mp4, come on creative zen for the win.

and some how speed up the wifi. the psp has wifi but when it comes to going online. it's sluggish.

 

if i had those i would be happy and thing else, camra whatever all built in would just be extra.

but im a person that doesn't mind getting more then what i ask for.

 To the creator of this thread: Why must you be such an idiot?

Just because several websites have picked up on this rumour, it doesn't mean its true. You said it has been confirmed, No it has NOT. Its only confirmed when Sony themselves say its gonna happen. I actually took time to check this thread and now I find its another one of same pointless rumour speculating trash threads thats contaminating this forum! STOP posting these threads.

honestly either way, the PSP Lite won't really look all that different. It might look "sexier" at first glace but if you already own one then don't even bother. Hardcore fans will eventually trade in their old ones and get the new one. End of story.

RUMOURS, you typed it yourself, now, how come the title is "New PSP Confirmed?"

AND HOW IS SONY GOING TO CRAMP ALL THAT STUFF INTO A HANDHELD. IT's IMPOSSIBLE.
