They should take some of that marketing money and fund the development of some games that are actually fun to play.

Or, develop a PSP2: 8GB hard drive / flash memory, hackable firmware, support for SD cards, and a better control scheme. They can keep the same screen, hell, even the UMD slot.]]>Dec 12th 2006 11:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/Dec 12th 2006 12:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
Get a gp32 or whatever they're making now. They'll probably have a better offering for you]]>Dec 12th 2006 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
PS(P) - Dear Sony: I published a paper over a year ago while working at an e-Business research firm about the backlash most companies experience when they get caugh astroturfing, and they all do. It even included some rough fiscal numbers to show you that bad publicity isn't always better than no publicity. Find it. Read it.]]>Dec 12th 2006 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/Dec 12th 2006 11:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/totally agreed.

this is lameness.

That whole 'this is not an ad' poster isn't so bad. If you just got rid of everything and left the Playstation button x-mas tree it'd be perfect. Right now, just like always, Sony's trying to hard to be cool instead of just being themselves.

My message to sony:
Stop whoring the psp. Treat the 499 PS3 as the focus, and the 599 as the 'something extra' and just stop freaking out or you'll pull a Sega.]]>Dec 12th 2006 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/

Even though many of their ads are bad lately, I think Sony's Rubik's Cube ad for the PS3 is very good.]]>Dec 12th 2006 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
They can do it. The only question is whether they want to.]]>Dec 12th 2006 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
And, SD card support doesn't mean they have to drop support for the Memory Stick. See the Sony Reader as a perfect example.]]>Dec 12th 2006 1:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/Dec 12th 2006 1:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
Any PSP news and all the DS fanatics scream about how crappy the games are (not) and even trot out the lie about the ejecting UMDs. These are fanboys who 1). never played or owned a PSP and 2). never will.

Die, fanboys, die.

b) said 30-year-olds would waste the time and money developing a website when they could work/spend their money directly on a PSP?
c) anybody, including these nerds, would actually set up this website, unless they were SONY?

IMO this is only newsworthy if the site is UNRELATED to Sony.]]>Dec 13th 2006 4:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/
and the link to the psp ad that included a white and black model, i tend to think thats more political correctness gone mad than racisim i highly doubt that such a media storm whould have happend if the models were in the oppisite positions. (sorry to comment on old news)]]>Dec 13th 2006 8:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/12/sony-keeps-up-solid-streak-of-psp-marketing-snafus/Busted. Nailed. Snagged. As many of you have figured out (maybe our speech was a little too funky fresh???), Peter isn't a real hip-hop maven and this site was actually developed by Sony. Guess we were trying to be just a little too clever. From this point forward, we will just stick to making cool products, and use this site to give you nothing but the facts on the PSP.
