Sony Exec Talks New PSP's Upgrades, GPS Attachment, NYC Appeal And More

Quote:

He said that PSP owners should expect most of the functionality improvements to their PSP to arrive via the system's regular firmware updates. "There's a lot coming," he said

There hasn't been a big PSP update for quite some time now so I wonder what they have planned.

Great interview.

The system has so many possibilities, I cant wait to see what those firmware updates throw at us.

I definitely want the new PSP, if only for the video out. Stinks that it only fills about a quarter of the screen right now, but its better than nothing. And I can only assume its something a firmware update could tweak later on down the line.

He looks to the fall's PSP exclusive "God of War: Chains of Olympus" as the system's flagship title.

I noticed eb has the game tentatively listed as a Jan 08 release. Maybe it will actually hit in the fall? Hopefully we get news of a release date soon...

I think you'll be able to change the scaling options for games and UMD movies - check out the photo of the new Ape Escape game being played nearly fullscreen at the bottom of this page.

The new psp model looks nice. It has been a while since we've had a firmware update. I wonder if microsoft had a handheld, which company would win the handheld war, Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo?
