Who says PSP gets no love?

Sure, we may not have the most PSP content here (blame no one having it, yet), but you also can't excuse the lack of attention it gets. From UMD hatred, few releases, and even weeks go by where Sony adds no PSP content to the Playstation Store. But apparently those days are over, because Sony is announcing PSP content like it's a system launch.

From SCEA's annual Destination Playstation conference it was announced that:

- There will be 2 new PSP bundles; Assassin's Creed bundle (Includes a Black PSP, new Assassin's Creed title, with more features TBA) and a Hanna Montana bundle (Includes a new Lilac PSP, Hannah Montana game, Hannah Montana TV series UMD, a 2GB Memory Stick PRO Duo, and decals for the PSP) ... why?

- New PSP titles including LittlleBigPlanet, MotorStorm: Arctic Edge (also on PS2, as to why, I don't know), and ... Petz (No thanks, Ubisoft); as well as Rock Band Unplugged, which will include its own store, and there's a bunch of EA Sports titles (but who cares?).

- Also the Warhawk Command Center will be launching on Playstation Home this week

Update: Thanks to an Atlus newsletter, I can also now say that Shin Megami Tensai: Persona will be coming to the PSP as well, releasing Fall 09 in North America

Various Impressions: MotorStorm

I only happened to catch one PS3 game tonight, so I'm sorry for all you PS3 fans, but I promise, more is on the way!



MotorStorm: Pacific Rift - While I don't have a PS3 myself, the original MotorStorm is the game I have played the most of on the console; so I'm pretty excited to see a sequel coming out. It even seems to have the same crazy destruction as before, only kicked up a notch with fully destructible environments! That's right, you can rip through the island that's based on Hawaii and just wreak absolute havoc on your fellow racers and the island itself. To go along with this new destruction they added a new type of class, monster trucks. If that isn't already awesome enough, you'll be driving through 4 distinct zones each with their own individual properties. Fire zones are... well full of fire I'd assume, vegetation zones are set in the forest areas, then with the ability to cool your engine are water zones, and with big ramps and lots of airtime are air zones. Oh did I mention the split-screen 4-player multiplayer mode? Yeah. It's gonna rock.
