I have a question. Ket Kutaragi was obviously the only smart man in this company, a smart man surrounded by a sea of incompetent and ignorant fools, the same fools that designed this abortion of a device. My question is the following: Who was retarded enough to fire him?

I hope £230 for PSP Go is incorrect, because that price is a disgrace. Makes me worried about the price of the upcoming PS3 Slim. My PS3 died and I need a replacement, and I’m not paying £145 for a refurb. If PS3 Slim isn’t a good price I’m going to remain PS3-less for a looong time

This question isn’t directly related to the new PSP (awesome piece of engineering btw), but can we expect a Killzone: Liberation sequel?

Guerrilla did an awesome job with Killzone 2, so I’m really hoping they’ll do something for PSP as well.

The only question that is absolutely important to me is: will there be any way at all to convert my existing 22 UMD games to a digital format, and if so will it be available in South Africa, also will it cost anything? If there is and it is available in SA then you can make a space in your wallet for my cash.

Great Job with the overall design, it looks great. Cant wait for Oct 1 release date.

Well. I think we should leave this conversation about the hungarian ps store situation. Everybody has got a different opinion. I hope somebody from the sony crew will answer officialy.

Secondly, @ WhiteWolfDK – I most certainly do no give GB users a bad name! It’s called business, now I may have a business focussed mind given my career and education and if you think it makes me unsympathetic to other Europeans then that is your problem not mine.

It has absolutely nothing to do with me getting or not getting any services, it’s about understanding Sony’s business reasons for making those decisions (in VidZone’s case they even explained them in the article – but people still whinged about it).

Let’s strip it right down to basic numbers ignoring any other factor – according to VGChartz PS3 sales in all regions outside of Japan and the Americas total 10.7 million – 19% of these sales are the UK alone making it the single biggest PS3 market outside America/Japan. Then take the other VidZone Countries like France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austrialia and you have a further 5.2M units. Meaning that VidZone already covers 67% of the ‘Others’ region and 75% of European owners. It’s pretty obvious why they neither Sony nor Microsoft prioritise getting their services into Countries like Hungary – nothing personal to PS3/360 owners in those region, it’s just common business sense…

LOL this is why I didn’t go for a career in international relations!

Firstly, @ sny83 by “infrastructure” I meant the PSN Store, I wasn’t making any judgment on the infrastructure of Hungary, I merely meant that I would find it surprising that Sony would announce the PSN Store dependent PSP Go in a Country that didn’t have a PSN Store!

Unless they have some other way around this, like a PC/PSP version of the Store. I can’t imagine them releasing the PSP Go in Hungary if they didn’t have any way for consumers to access content for it.
