PSP2

PSP2 – Portable PlayStation 2 – was unveiled today at E3 during a Sony conference. While the new portable gaming system doesn’t bring any new technology, it does have some good points.

The improvements can be resumed to 6 details with the most important one being the last:

  • 33% lighter
  • 19% slimmer
  • improved battery life
  • improved game loading times
  • enhanced feature to temporarily store game data from UMD, reducing load time during game play
  • video out function so you can connect the PSP to a TV and watch the content (aka play games) on a big display

As for the prices, release dates, colors and more details:

  • the first PSP2 will be release during September and has the original (Piano) Black color.
  • the second PSP2 will have the (Ice) silver color and come with the Family Guy series on the UMD. A 1GB memory card is also included.
  • the third PSP2 will be white colored with the Star-Wars theme and instead of the comedy cartoon series, it comes with a movie to match the theme – Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron.

Both PSP2 models will cost $200.

its not a PSP2 dont call it that its just a redesign of the first one. they remake the same system better right before they make a part 2 of a game system so they can get more money.
