I guarantee you that more than half of those will be “delayed”.

Heh, “Malice” was supposed to be an XBox launch title, and it didn’t come out until… last month!

as long as Metal Gear Acid isn’t on the “delayed” train, it will be fine with me.

I wouldn’t mind it if they delayed Metal Gear Acid and made it an actual game.

Not that I’m prejudiced against Metal Gear Tactical Board Games… I just kind of dislike the idea of rolling dice to sneak up on someone. >_

I think they priced the psp too high!
WHAT ABOUT US POOR PEOPLE!!!!

I think that they did make the psp to high of a price. I was thinking it would have been at least 100 dollars or a little bit more but i prolly is worth it case of what all it does.

Does anyone know if any PSP’s are not region free…? My son bought a PSP from abroad (Japan, Hong Kong.. not sure) He recently bought Spider man 2 another imported game which his console was unable to read… i was under the impression that the PSP was region free am i wrong?

Hi its quite simple, what your son has is the japanese import PSP,not the us Import ,Which is good as the tft screen is sharp and the PSP is made in japan compared to the us model which is made in china and i also heard that they have a lot more dead pixels unlike my own jap model which has none.What it is is that games are region free so you can buy us games and it will be in english but the movies are region coded and as such your jap import will not play us “umd movies” but all is not lost,sell that movie on ebay and wait until 1st sep 05 and when the uk version is relesed you will be able to buy and play uk umd movies as japan and the uk are the same region cheers .

US PSPs aren’t made in China, they’re made in Japan too…
