Wow. PSP news. Very intriguing.

We don\'t need 2D handheld games.

I don\'t why there\'s an argument here. It can do both 2D and 3D. If it has dual shock, it can function as a portable massager too.

Thank you.

In actuality we dont need videogames at all. Of course we would hate that but thats a little farfetched.

I wouldn\'t mind 3D or 2D handheld, but the way i see it, the LCD screen is just too small for decent hi-res 3D..what\'s the max resolution of the GBA and PSP anyway? I think it\'s very difficult to cram so much 3D info onto such a small screen without either:

(1) looking jaggy and blocky
(2) Hurt your eyes with the smaller objects

Still, it\'ll be interesting what they can come up with. Perhaps a compromise of 2.5D ala Crash Bandicoot games will be more feasible.

Maybe SONY can sell some add on like becoming a portable shaver, toaster, fan, torchlight etc etc...hee-hee. Imagine...you can toast a bread as you play on it!! How cool!

I have the 4 inch LCD screen for the PS-One and 3D games look fine. Actually better. I was able to play Poy-Poy, Metal Gear Solid and Colin McRae 2.

I think 3d is doable but what saddens me is that they are not trying to compete on the same level as the GBA. Sure they want to be somewhere in the middle of everything but why not compete in more than one slot, (i know this sounds typical of sony anyway right?). If they lowered the price and raised the standards for handheld gaming they might be able slowly diffuse through nintendos reign.

I guess those aspirations are a little far off and maybe sony is happy to compete in the middle, but my question is, is there really a middle at all? I mean the only people to buy it are exremely loyal fans and those multimedia buffs with the money to afford it. And if thats the case will they really be puchasing the boatload of games that sony tends to have on their consoles? Meh. I guess it all depends on the pricing.
