Interesting....but will the NGP but another PSP against Nintendo? Yes, Sony may have the tech with hardware but it was the audience which made the Nintendo DS beat the PSP by miles. Unless the NGP is priced cheaper than the 3DS then I can see the PSP situation happening again.

I'm half asleep still but looking the pics of it on Eurogamer it's exactly the same as the current PSP. As in 'looks ••••'. The mockups looked 10 better.

Like the PSP, it looks awkward to hold. Gripping it by your fingertips to use the left analogue stick while hovering your right index finger for the touchscreen looks a bit unbalanced. Hope it's light!

Also, do the sticks push in to be flush to the casing? If not I can see them getting snagged on pockets etc. when people are using them out and about.

Am I Reading this right? They're bringing out the complete Uncharted 1 game and it runs exactly the same as it did on PS3? That's quite impressive.

A Quad-core PSP with a OLED screen £1000. lol

I think it looks superb! The original in all types was nice to hold but the PSPgo was terrible.. That looks excellent.. And the screen should be incredible if the OLED stuff i have seen is anything to go by.

If the price is good and the battery lasts a good 4-5 hours of game play this should be fantastic.

Playstation Suite looks like it will be giving apple a run for their money in the mobile gaming department with android games store coming later this year.
