Sony’s PSP has always been brought success for the company and is todays most popular portable gaming device. The newer version of the Play Station Portable will be available on 1st october for sale. Most of the news about the gadget had been revealed and leaked but Sony did a press release telling about the features of the new device.
This Version of the PSP does not have a UMD support that means all the games and other forms of media will be inserted into it via USB. A good news is that now it has a pretty good internal memory as well the PSP Go will offer 16GB of built-in flash memory initially, and it’s expandable via a Memory Stick Micro (M2) slot. No UMD also means longer battery life cause UMD use to take a lot of it. It also means that you cannot play the UMD games that you already own because of the previous version.
The controls have also been changed that the previous PSP models a four-way d-pad on the left, the standard quartet of geometrically coded Sony controls (circle, square, cross, triangle) on the right, select/start buttons in the center, and the PlayStation “home” button to the left of the screen. Despite early rumours there is no touch screen on PSP Go.
PSP games will be available for download directly from the PlayStation Store over the console’s Wi-Fi connection. In addition to direct download, Sony says that “all” new PSP games will continue to be available on UMD, too. We have to wonder how long that’ll last, given the fact that the company seems to be embracing digital-only distribution on titles like Patapon 2. However, since older PSPs can also access and play download-only titles, the eventual death of UMD shouldn’t make them obsolete.
