Surely it'll be the P2P²
Pay 2 Play Portable

and it will be download only.


It wouldn't surpise me if Sony did end up using the indice 2 if they go for a PSP2

Hmm... looks pretty kickass to me, but download-only means no backwards compatibility, which means hang onto those older PSP models kids!

I'm a little ticked that I just paid for the 3000.

I'm not too upset about it, unless every previous developer plans to supply the new PSP with downloadable versions of their games. Even then, they would get to set their prices, which means no cheap used copies of games from local pawn shops, etc. I'm perfectly happy with the current PSPs.

I'd be really happy with a new PSP if I'm honest. The current PSP doesn't have enough new games in the pipeline for my liking, so hopefully a successor will have lots of exciting new titles lined up.

Since I just got mine the other month I'd be happier if they'd waited a bit longer, they'll be even less games if a new one comes out.

I'm not a fan of download distribution of games, I like the safety of having a physical copy in my hands that will never go away even if the memory storage system fails (because it will sooner or later). I hope that's just a rumour.

I'm all for downloadable games but not when it's the only option. Like others have said, it's more expensive and not as safe feeling. Although, if this does happen, then maybe the older PSPs will go down in price.

That's the kind of thinking I was doing...bring the existing ones down, then I'll buy one
