New PSP model in development; sort of

psp3001.jpg

The rumored PSP-3000 model is a lie. According to Gizmodo, the PSP-3001 is where it’s at.

Through an FCC listing, the site’s got its hands on the PSP-3001’s testing info. The documents aren’t the most in-depth, but do show that the PSP-3001 will not include any substantial cosmetic changes. And that it exists, obviously.

Smart money says that all changes will be internal. Thus, Gizmodo speculates, they’ll be aimed at lowering costs and giving the boot to hackers.

But unless “internal changes” actually means “hard drive and a steady stream of good games,” we doubt the hackers will be out for long.

I love my PSP right now. Haven’t touched my DS other than to glance at Civ Rev on it. Then again, I don’t care for dogz, babyz, rabbitz, catz type games or a “steady stream” of non-games. Non-games are not games.

PSP always wins by virtue of having the best game of all time on it (The proper Final Fantasy Tactics). I really would like a harddrive/decent flash memory version though.

Shit, won’t let me edit.

This news annoys me a little, I’ve been holding back on getting the PSP because of funds and that I want to import one of the Ceramic White ones (DO NOT want Vader, kthnx). Now it looks like I might have to wait and see.
