tl;dr They took a PSP and fused it with a Samsung Captivate.

Not only is that ugly as hell, but who the hell wants to hold taht up their ear? Unless the controls are removable if not, you're gonna look like a tool carrying that thing around.

are you stupid or am i just incredibly smart(both of these are true it's a trick question)

because it looks pretty obvious that the controls slide "under" the screen
like the last psp design
and like several phones

sweet mother of hell i'd buy one

Soooooo, who here has tried saying PSPP(Sony Playstaion Portable Phone) out loud? Did you sound ridiculous? I know Viper did.


RE: PlayStation Phone - triptych - 08-12-2010

pspeepee


RE: PlayStation Phone - Cobalt Blue - 08-12-2010

it makes you wonder how the pspgo had a baby when barely anyone touched her


RE: PlayStation Phone - Josiah - 08-12-2010

Admittingly... I wanted to buy one...


RE: PlayStation Phone - Vipershark - 08-12-2010

why did they make this
the pspgo is literally worthless and probably lost sony money
this includes phone functionality, but is still pretty retarded because of the lack of a disc drive

do they enjoy bankrupting themselves

edit- though i will admit that the inclusion of the phone makes more sense than the vanilla pspgo because this is intended to be portable and not just a gaming system
also i'm assuming you can buy/play games over 3g

A lack of a disc drive isn't going to bother Pirates, heh.


RE: PlayStation Phone - Vipershark - 08-12-2010

actually
that's true

but from what i've heard the go uses a different system for accessing games or something? I don't even know.
Is there a CFW out for it yet that allows it to play isos and csos yet?
now that i think about it, since this runs android, it'll probably allow for custom applications
won't be surprised if this is hacked in less than a month


RE: PlayStation Phone - DioShiba - 08-12-2010

I stopped caring about what sony could do with a PSP since go.

this looks like even more of waste considering hardly anyone would use this for a phone, might as well get a PS3 instead.


RE: PlayStation Phone - Cobalt Blue - 08-13-2010

remember when they tried so hard to convince people that the ipad was a legit gaming platform
