PSP World speculates on the specifications of the graphics chip in the PSP successor.
The PSP was ambition personified, so much so that it’s kinda wild to look back and realise what exactly Sony cooked up in 2004.
I still play my PSP. Sadly the UMD drive has stopped working, but I modded it to still be able to play my games (and then some). Such a great little portable.
Even as the company sets out to overhaul the very definition of Xbox, cuts at its studios risk creating a negative image reminiscent of EA's worst era
I appreciate the article but this guy must be living in a delayed universe, The reputation was ruined 10+ years ago and hasn't recovered since. As such people have voted with their wallets and stopped buying Xbox products in large amounts.
Their reputation was lost way before that. From the moment Microsoft said they entering the console business, we all knew it would be a downgrade.
That's not true at all the OG Xbox had drive and they had hunger and they wanted to accomplish something. It was a great console.
they didn't quite reach their goals and they gave up prematurely because they couldn't win. It was halfway through the Xbox 360 when kinect released and that was when they lost their way and we're a rudderless ship ever since
In all fairness, Xbox had some great games with online play, Xbox 360 even better. Xbox consoles started to die with the Xbox One. Ditch consoles for the PC and PS.
@Bathyj hard to compute ay. Xbox was never better than a PC and that's all they ever were. A demo box. Doesn't get more true than that.

Rumors of Turn 10 being either shut down or hit with massive lay offs is on the horizon.
The issue is MS will do something right only to do something very, very wrong. And they do this what seems calculative at this point. Doesn't matter what they do the Investors and leadership want more and more money an endless bottomless pit of purr insatiable greed. A company that acts like it's broke or hurting is what really, really infuriates me. They've surpassed apple again well over 3 trillion who acts like they're a million dollar company is fk stupid. Pivots and changes for no reason and can't do things for more than a year with out a pivot or changing their metrics.
That would be really bad since Phil just hyped up next year as a big Forza year at Summer Game Fest.
Isn't the point that it's irrelevant how profitable MS is, the suits have decided it's time that the Xbox division started making them money. Hence the layoffs, the pivots.
That wouldn't surprise me, as motorsport has been heading down hill since the great number 4. Where as playground have consistently put out better games. I think the two studios will be merged under playground games banner.

Wow those demonstration images look amazing, and they aren't even from the new SGX55x, which is what is going into the PSP.
I can't wait to see what games are going to look like on this thing.
Ha, I have a friend who works for Imagination, b*stard kept quite about this if is indeed accurate. I'll be bugging him later to see if I can get anything out of him, although very unlikely.
Specs seems promising, the iphone has a lot more raw power than the PSP and the PSP2 should follow suit over the iphone. Quite a way off yet though.
It need a multitouch screen...but have dual analog sticks for games. It needs the R1\R2 and L1\L2 buttons and six axis control and rumble built in. And a 6 hours battery life with everthing turned on. It needs wifi 802.11n...and 32 GB of flash memory built in...plus memory stick and conpact flash support for additional memory. A built in camera, that is at least 3.2 megapixels..
Am i only one not impressed by those numbers? If it turns out that it is going to be as powerful as RSX(which i doubt) than it could be cool
"Note that the specifications above are for the current generation SGX530. The SGX55x, which is still in development, is expected to be much more powerful."
