Sony bringing PSP Go! October 1 for $249 in North America
Can you even believe it? Yeah, so, not a big secret, but at least we know that Sony is really bringing out a much smaller version of their portable console with the PSP Go!
We heard from Sony at its E3 press conference that it won't "replace" the PSP-3000 or UMD, it's 50 percent smaller and 40 percent lighter than the original PSP. All future retail titles will have retail and PlayStation store release. Japan can look for it Nov. 1 for ¥26,800.[249$]
Though that one Nazi at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark would have you believe otherwise, having your face melted off by a supernatural display of awesome power is probably one of the best things that could ever happen to you. Since the overwrought, open-world rock epic Brütal Legend promises to scorch our grinning mugs in similar fashion, we're pleased to note that it's scheduled to arrive on October [Rocktober] 13th in the US (and the 16th in Europe).
"Wooo! Having an official release date is awesome!" shouted Tim Schafer, lead singe-er at Double Fine Productions. "And how cool is it that EA threw down the dough to have the name of an entire month changed to Rocktober?" Pretty cool, Tim -- but not as cool as the reception we plan on giving those stupid intervening months whenever they get in our pre-melted faces.
