The list interests me in its own way, the PSP seems to be getting lots of attention recently and games are just being announced out of nowhere for it. Now one of those project Sony is working on for the PSP, is little big planet psp version. It was announced just recently, and for those of you who dont know its a new game coming up for the ps3 that enables creative play to make your own platformer. Square is taking a deep intrest into the PSP with all those games announced such as dissidia and kingdom hearts. I am not that surprised with the ps3's list since it was quite expected, what shocked me through those recent months is the sudden rise in PSP game announcements, what do you guys think about that?

I think that sony is trying to raise the awareness around the psp, and get people to purchase it so that they can then use the synergy between the psp and the ps3 to sell more of both. That way they can get a foothold into the living room, and extend it so that they can attempt to be as dominant in consumer electronics as microsoft is in software.

I really don't understand why sony are pushing the PSP + PS3 stuff - the GC + GBA connectivity was absolutely amazing in every way and it flopped, HARD. People just aren't willing to shell out for so much hardware, and the PS3 + PSP cost WAY more combined than GC and GBA.

I think what sony wants to prove here is the fact that Both of their hardware have so many features and when they work together you can have the ultimate gaming experience. Just look at those PSP big updates such as skype, chatting, PSN store will now be directly accessible, and TV output and what knows what might come. They are pretty much saying, we are going to hand you the ultimate gaming package.
