Quantcast



The above footage comes to you courtesy of my pal, the shakycam. It was shot from a screen projecting the in-game antics of the lovely Colette Bennett in the upcoming Prince of Persia: Rival Swords for the PSP. As you can see, the graphics are just a tick below the PlayStation 2 version of the past Prince of Persia titles, and the controls have translated quite nicely to the handheld. The version on display was an almost complete build, and when combined with the upcoming Afterburner title we showed you yesterday, should make for a much more successful future for Sony’s wee baby.

Whether or not the PSP can even vaguely come close to the runaway success of the DS is anyone's guess, but at least all the kids who blew their hard earned cash on Sony's black handheld will have some games to play that don't end in the word "Stories".

Isn't this just a handheld version of Two Thrones? Looks almost identical.

That is funny, Other than SOCOM, the only other games I play on my PSP are the two GTA games

quote nex - "@ ted:
Yeah, same game:"

The graphics are the same, right? As our forefathers once said, "The Wii is a piece of shit."

The only reason I bought my psp was for I could read memory stick duo cards on my pc for my ps3. And it was a better deal for the things you get instead of a regualr MEM stick card reader. Oh yea I forgot to mention the homebrew, and "hacks" for the psp. Which I kinda hope happen for the ps3.

But not for a while, I want the ps3 to get some money for the games and etc they hold.

More money for sony means more candy for us.
