But that’s not all, according to reports, Sony has also been actively recruiting existing iPhone developers to bring existing titles to PSN:

Sony isn’t taking a leaf out of Apple’s book when it comes to easing the process of publishing, however. Games will continue to go through formal console-centric Technical Requirement Check (TRC) requirements, as well as a two week quality assurance testing period. Sony will also actively control the release schedule for games, although considering the current disquiet over Apple’s laissez faire attitude to app approval and release, this might not be a bad thing.

• Sony courting indie devs with faster quality assurance, lower price points for new PSP games
• Make room for more: PSP Go DL titles to average 600-800MB
