Here's the thing: gaming site Kotaku was blacklisted for a while by Sony for spilling the proverbial magic beans on the new PlayStation 3 (PS3) service, PlayStation Home. After all hoopla subsided, it turned out that the Kotaku rumor was correct and Sony re-invited them back to the previously scheduled meetings and interviews. |

» and back to the real world
calm down boys and girls,
you all know this will end up being one of two things..
1) just an updated psp - like the ds lite was to the ds - which would make a Q4 of 2007 launch about right
2) a psp2 - which wont come out at q4 of 2007 because they haven't had time to develope it yet
rumours like this always get made and suckers like QJ print/display them
heres some rumours for you
1) there will be a 3rd x box released toward the end of 2008 that is controlled via the mind
2)nintendo are working on a new console that is 4 times as powerful as wii (wow) but you control it with a body suit
3) holographic TV's will be released to the masses in summer 2011
4) sony have a psp2 and ps4 in development
all obvious stuff when you think about it

Guys stop being so happy you know that them releasing a new console is bad for us right? Because then are psp's will be useless and sony will focus on the newer system which judging by the speculated features wont be cheap. So i say stop being happy if this is true then prepare to lose another large amount of money. I hope this isnt real.

Even if there is a psp2, I cant see how that would render our psp's useless. If the statements made are true then the game format remains UMD so u can still put games on ur memorystick, plus there might be even greater security on the new system and would take time to be hacked.

it seems like all this speculation is more what you HOPE Sony will do rather than what you KNOW Sony will do. let us not forget what happened with FW 3.00 speculation (for those who have been around long enough). those altered pics of the FW back in the days of 2.0 and 1.5 looked nothing like it actually is right now. just b/c Kotaku was blacklisted for something correct once does not mean that every time after that it will be true again. as well, if Sony stated that they were not developing a PSP2, and they actually were, the company could be charged for corporate malpractice, and that would damage Sony's rep. keep dreaming all you want, but it really just seems like another hopeless rumor. and btw, if all that stuff were added, Sony would have to redesign the whole thing anyway.

» False Hopes!
No truth to this at all. It's purely speculation and
linding to false hopes. Besides, what good would
a new version of PSP be without the second
anolog nub which isn't mentioned. I'll believe it
when I see it. SONY just shot down any hopes of
any kind of revamped version of the PSP and
now somebody says that a new version of the
PSP will be anounced in the second quarter of
the year. Give me a brake, this is poppyc o c k.
No such thing will ever happen, at least no
durring this year unless it is produced by a third
party source and not by SONY.

I could see it all being true except for the touchscreen part, unless it was XMB specific. They're not going to make a product that outdates the PSP 1.
And it's still not 100% clear if the 8Gb is Gigabits or Gigabytes, but my guess would be Gigabits ie. 1 Gigabyte.

It would have to be 8 Gigabytes, 8 Gigabits would be usless on the psp for downloaded games and movies.
I would be happy with the new features. Only one thing bothers me about psp1, ghosting. I see it int everything. The screen looks great, but ghosting is a *****.
Sony, please up the refresh rate of the screen and no dead pixels this time....... Add a second analog stick too.

» Why gigabits?
There's no reason for the 8GB to be gigabits, GB is generally accepted as gigabytes and using gigabits there would just be weird (isn't gigabits with a small b anyway? - Gb not GB).
I hope there's no touch-screen, that would force me to buy the new one, like you said.
The lack of homebrew that is undoubtedly going to come with a redesign (at least until its hacked, which could be a while if you think of the TA-082) is also bad.

Yes small b ++ bits, and large B + bytes, but every other PSP2/PSP-Lite rumor (inclucing the supposed mass purchase of 8Gb chips by Sony) aside from this one has used the small b, which is why it remains unclear.
At the time the mass purchase rumor was made, it actually did make sense for it to be 8Gb, since 4GB had just been released.

Hello!! If they could make a touch screen TV then they could implement touch screen on the PSP. You don't need dual screens to be touch screen. One is sufficient.

It would be cool if the touchscreen they're talking about replaced the buttons, so the entire surface of the PSP was a touchscreen. That would be an innovative new thing for gaming. Custom buttons come up on the screen for every game. Fingerprints might get annoying, though. I personally believe the DS did a terrible job with the touchscreen idea. On every game I've played on the DS, the touchscreen is optional to use instead of the buttons. You can't really use the buttons and the touch screen on the DS at the same time, either.

I misread your post, but that gave me an idea: sony should incorporate a TV tuner into a psp. Sure, it would cost them an extra $15, but hey, who wouldn't mind paying an extra $20 or so to watch TV on the go? I mean, if cellphones can do it, then why not PSP. LOL, I remember when the PSP first came out, and all the rich kids had one, I had heard that it could play TV. When I won mine at a raffle, I was slightly disappointed that it didn't have any TV... The screen also looked a lot smaller once I actually saw it...

At first the PSP came with homebrew ENABLED... This is why we can get PSP's so compatible... Sure the newer FWs that were hacked have SOME homebrew (wow, tiff homebrew pwns), but higher FWs can't run nearly as much as 1.50... what do you expect, to downgrade a FW 1.00 PSP2? The fact that we could run unsigned code in the beginning of PSP let us find out a lot about the FW of it from looking at it, which let us find out about later FWs and made it more easily hackable... it'll be nearly impossible to hack the first FW for PSP2 sony might make because we know nothing about it. Also, sony has learned it's lesson with PSP, and they will probably work extremely hard to prevent homebrew for v 1.00 so they can get it right the first time. I don't think there is any way to run ISOs on any FW other than 1.50 (correct me if I'm wrong) and ISOs are one of the main reasons why people like the PSP... they can have 3 or 4 games on one memory stick, without needing to carry around any discs... If we can't load ISOs on 1.51+, I'm very doubtfull we will be able to figure out how to run them on the PSP2's firmware, which is sure to crack down on homebrew a lot worst than the other FWs have.

» this wouldn't sell.
I sure wouldnt buy it.
1. I'll have an 8gb card sooner than that will come out, so unless it has a 100 gig drive, I won't really care
2. Touchscreen? are you joking? can you say unoriginal, and unnecessary? I hope these so called improvments break their bank for good...
Im really starting to hate sony.... I can only imagine them over at HQ
"the DS is outselling the PSP! Om my God let's give it a touchscreen"
MY prediction is that sony makes it, and it sells like wildfire for a month, then dies out like everything else sony makes

An 8GB memory stick costs over $300 USD. A redesigned psp with built in 8GB flash memory will (hopefully) cost less than that.

How *****ing retarded are you? Thouchscreen ain't unnecessary and it's being long ago becoming standard on all handhelds. iPhone will completely rid of buttons and make everything touchscreen. Again stupid retard is not a matter of being "UNORIGINAL", but where technology is heading and the practical benefits it becomes.
You really don't deserve a PSP, go back play with your crayons and playthough, *****ing retard!!!

» iphone
the iphone was trademarked by cisco. I think I saw on a commercial that they've renamed it the "Hello". Yes, it sounds queer, but apple is kinda good at selling crap and making it appeal to noobs. I mean, hey, take a look at the ipod video: $400 worth of crap, when you could've simply gotten a pda that could handle all that, and a lot more (and how many of you are going to actually use all 80 gigs of storage? with a pda, just snap in a 4gig card, and you've got enough space for at least 8 movies using a homebrew divx player; when you get bored, just erase the movies, and transfer some new ones in. Simple as that. Oh yeah, and sorry for getting off topic. I'm an evilscarycomputergeek.

» Sony = ****
If sony had brains they could just make the umds undumpable or just block iso's from loading on the system but they're not so i guess they'll just block out all homebrew and decrease profits.

» MS Duo?
I am NOT getting one until I see the 'supports MS Duo'. I really hope it doesn't have a M2 slot instead, that would be so typical of Sony if they do. That would mean about 4 times less storage than a duo, and about 2 years behind in terms of technology on the sticks. I wonder though, if they're bringing it out to have support for the new HG MS Duos?

» I Agree With The Guy That's Saving Up
I am also going to start saving up. If there is one thing PSP tought me, it is to go with Sony for handhelds ALL THE WAY. Also, Dark Alex and Fanjita will probably pwn a new PSP so quickly. I am all for all of those features although a touch screen would make a protective case a must have. Obviousley the graphics will also blow out any other competitor.

» Maybe
Sound more like an upgraded PSP1 (1.5) rather than a psp2 - with the exception of touch screen. The screen on the psp1 is gorgous, so id like to see this one. I feel a touch screen would be rather gimmicky with sony-style products, but we shall see.
Personally, like i said, it sound more of consolidated psp1 with more features. It doesnt sound like a next-gen psp - with the exception of a touch screen - which i highy doubt.

» FFS stop with the utterly moronic stupidity
The 8gig of flash RUMOR came from a scanned purchase order from Sony to Samsung for a very large load of 8gigaBYTE flashram chips.
Those chips are currently being used in Sony's own 8gig MEMORY STICKS, not internal flash ram......
Loading faster just means speeding up the CPU and the drive read speed, which in turn means lesser battery power......
Builtin camera means killing the sales of the already released Chotto Shot, even Sony isn't THAT stupid.....
Touchscreen??? People already have problems with scratching the **** out of regular PSP screens.
And only hamfisted morons have problems with existing PSP buttons or Dpad, I've pulled off every move in every fighting game out emulated or otherwise without modding my pad or buttons.
Kotaku is slipping.....BIGTIME

» Better Financial Move
If they were to release a PSP2 this would make it possible to drop the price of the PSP which could also increase sales to par with DS. Of course the PSP2 would have a hefty price with features like that much like the PS3 did so I really don't know if Sony would want to take another loss. With a camera, 8GB and touch screen that would around the $350 range. Now if they take the look of the Mylo and add that keyboard then it would be worth the price tag of $350 or more.

It would probably be a LOT more than $350... my guess is $500 at a minimum, which is why I think that this is just a rumor, and nothing more. If its not, I'll be ticked off that I just bought my PSP less than a year ago, and they are already coming out with an upgrade...lets stay away from stupid Nintendo antics here Sony...the PSP is already great how it is ;)

I believed that until the part with the 8gb and touchsreen things. No way they implement touchscreen. That would be so stupid. A screen full of scratches and so on. I like the solid screen as it is!
But touchscreen would be good for homebrew :P
And new noobs coming and saying:
"Iv3 g0t FW 789.1 c4n 1t b d0wngr4d3d y3t LOL!!!!!!11"
Also UMD? and what if I insert a PSP2 UMD into my PSP?

Well since it's just a modified PSP, any UMD should work fine in either one. They're not likely to be making an actual PSP2 but rather an updated PSP.
