IGN: “PSP 2 coming soon.” Sony: “No its not, idiot.”
Just yesterday IGN posted a rumor speculating that the PSP 2 could possibly be “coming soon”, and even surmised the system would have a touch-screen interface (that tip was care of Captain Obvious, apparently). All in all it was a fairly harmless article, and IGN plastered rumor all over it. Considering we’re 5 years into the PSP’s lifespan, and the thing hasn’t exactly been spectacular lately, and given the success of Nintendo’s money-printing DS and Apple’s iPhone/iPod Touch, a touch-screen PSP 2 on the horizon is not exactly far fetched. Actually, it apparently is, according to Sony.
Speaking to MCV, a “source close to Sony” was quoted as saying
“Clearly, being a quiet time of year, many, what we thought to be credible websites, are making up stories about PSP2, and how it allows you to teleport across the globe, travel through time, and will be powered by the horns of baby rhinoceroses.
“Hopefully, you can sense a mild tone of sarcasm, which should hopefully indicate how ‘on the money’ IGN are. Needless to say, we don’t comment on rumour or speculation, but this is nonsense.”
Daaaaammmn. Okay, time for the P.E. teacher to break up the fight…..
