2011 Playstation Meeting Wrapup

It’s been a long time coming, but it seems as if the time is finally here.  The announcement of the PSP2.  Will it run on Android?  Will it have a Cell processor?  Can it really live up to the hype of PS3 quality graphics?  OLED screen?  Can they really do all of this and keep the price down?  That was rhetorical.

Here’s what we know so far:

Playstation Suite
Seems as if this will allow users to get Playstation content via their Android phones.
Currently seems as if PS1 games are the target.  A screen of Coolboarders (I think) with Playstation pad buttons pasted on the screen was shown.
Available this year.
All Suite software will work for Android and NGP

Playstation Certified
This service will help testing and quality assurance of for PS Suite content

PSP2 code named NGP

Revolutionary control system
Location based entertainment
Social connection
Augmented reality features
PS Suite compatibility
Dual Analog (micro analog sticks) placed below the digital buttons.  Designed to feel more like an analog stick and less like the nub on the PSP
Front and back touchscreen and panel

3G and Wifi

Sixaxis motion control using same sensors as used in the Move controllers
Threeaxis compass
Physical Media drive that may take SD like cards

5″ OLED screen with 4x the rez of the PSP and very wide viewing angle – 960 x 544
Front and rear cameras
Close to PS3 quality visuals
Backwards compatible with downloaded PSP titles w/ new control options to include the new right stick possible. (Monster Hunter Portable 3 shown using the right stick for camera control)

The back touch panel is the same size as the 5″ screen, so your finger’s location is exactly replicated on the screen

Can use front and back touch panels (screen) to make a pinching type motion.

Software

Called the “Live area”

Constantly online and can play online via mobile networks

Near – tracks your location changes and what games are being played in the areas you are and other stats about the game like how many people are playing them, then you can go right to the store and buy it if you like
