Sony contemplates Network games and Hard drive for the PSP

The PSP may receive an upgrade to the tune of access to more titles from the PlayStation Network, as well as a possible hard drive. This year’s E3 may not have held many new things for the PSP, aside from the announcement of a redesign, and even the people at Sony have felt the vacuum in between titles. Thus, they are taking steps to fix it.

David Reeves, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, did say that this is a problem that the company is working to address. “We’re thinking of moving some of the stuff we have on the Network on to PSP,” mentioning that Calling All Cars may be revamped to fit the handheld. Other titles may follow as Sony seeks to further rectify the situation by pumping up internal output and third party work.

On the question of the PSP hard drive, “I think its definitely possible later, yes” was David Reeves’ reply. One major reason why the PSP had not gotten one earlier despite the large user demand was that the drives were too expensive. But with the reduction of hard drive prices nowadays, Reeves believes that it may be something the company may look into.

While all these may be promises made in the air, it’s not criminal to dream about the possibilities. We’ll see how the company decides to make do on these words, and hopefully we will see new games and hardware for our handhelds in the future.
