Sony‘s really laying it on with their surveys. Guess they really wanna please the fans. The latest survey that popped up suggests that the PSP could be used as a device to record gameplay on the PlayStation 3, among other things, based on Question 19 and 20:


19. If you could make one modification to the PSP system, what would you like to see?

20. The following statements concern the way you would like a portable device to interact with a console. Rank these statements based on their appeal to you. (1 = Not Appealing, 6 = Very Appealing)

  • Use the device to complete side missions for console games (unlocakables, etc.).
  • Transfer media (music/pictures/video) wirelessly from the console to the device (broadcast television, new levels for games).
  • Use the device WHILE PLAYING the console game as an addition weapon/utility to help the gameplay (second player option, radar for incoming enemies, etc.).
  • Record console gameplay for display on the device (showing off your high scores ore “cool moves” to friends).

The first option sounds like a variation of what they’re going to do for Resistance: Retribution for the PSP, where connecting it with Resistance 2 will unlock an alternate story. The third option is the same thing we saw from Kaz at E3 2006, where he used the PSP as a rearview mirror while playing F1 Championship Edition on the PS3.

I’d prefer a way to make the PSP a DVR without having to go through devices like Neuros, but that’s just me dreaming.
