New PSP GPS photos show shininess

New PSP GPS photos show shininess
I really don't understand Sony's thinking in making its PSP peripherals look like a piece of chrome. In my opinion, they'd look a lot better getting the same makeover as the PSP rather than looking more like something you'd find in a Craftsman tool set.

But I shouldn't complain too much because at least we're finally getting some images of what to expect from the GPS add-on. What I'd like to know, however, is how long the battery will last when you have all the PSP's features running simultaneously.

These photos come at a good time, too, because there have been rumors swirling that Sony plans to launch the GPS and camera peripherals Sept. 22 during the Tokyo Game Show.

Video offers preview of what future may hold for PSP

In this video from computerwiz, he compiles official and what are most likely mock images of features that we may be see for the PSP in the near future.

He offers several images of what may be in store for firmware 3.0, which in his dream world includes support for an HDD in excess of 14GB, Sony Mail, a Sony Organiser, Sony Paint and Sony Music Store downloads. The video goes on to show more stills of the PSP PS1 emulator, the PSP camera and the PSP GPS peripheral.

If Sony can come through with half of the things this guy has thought of for firmware 3.0, I'll retract every bad thing I've ever said to the PSP. I'll have it in writing and send an official apology letter to Sony. C'mon, Sony, stop pussyfooting around with the PSP and do something that will blow us away. Please.

PSP2 to sport a built-in camera?

Call it viral marketing, rumor mongering, or just plain boy-who-cried-wolf-ing, but it's been revealed that the next iteration of the PSP will come with a video and still camera that will also allow for streaming live video to the PS3. The article adds even more fuel to the PSP2 rumor fire by stating that the apparently improved model will be a quarter-inch shorter than the existing PSP and will come in three colors: white, black, and silver. The PSP2 will also ship with a packet of magic pixie dust which will take your fondest wish of being a fairy princess and make it come true. We made up that part about the magic dust, but we had a good reason.

Before you get all touchy and accuse us of spreading lies, it should be noted that the news was provided by an "anonymous source". For all we know, this "source" could have been someone's fortune-telling great-aunt, so we're more than willing to recommend that this bit of information be taken with copious amounts of salt.

In light of the avalanche of PSP2-related gabbery these past weeks, our take at this point is if the news isn't coming directly from Sony, it should be treated as nothing more than rumor and speculation.

[Thanks, Tip]
