Oh God no..........
KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!
It's about time Sony!
I am sick of seeing the colourful Japan PSP, while we are stuck with black and silver and BLUE
I thought the headline was a joke. Now I'm sad...
Hannah Montana (disambiguation) Whore in training...
Just throw in a Twilight wallpaper and every mindless girl in the world will want it.
god save us all.
today there is no god :(
Its to help the PSP appeal to a broader market. . . or 12 year old girls. Its the same thing, really.
So 12 year old girls can play God of War on the go, Sony shouldn't even try to sell this to the younger kids, its not really made for them, even if they can get a HM game or two. The discs are too fragile, and the games are mostly targeted towards an older audience. Its a technical marvel processing wise compared to the DS lite, but Sony doesn't know what to do with it. Too many functions, none really executed correctly, the gaming is awesome, but the games are mostly subpar, and the optical disc medium makes for long load times and low battery life, they're getting into downloads, but i think it might be too late.
what?
I had vinyl records when I was 12 and I took very good care of them. 30 years later I still have most of them.
Yes! Its the best of both worlds!
Certainly not. Does it change colour when you dip it in water?
Yes.
That is the only acceptable comment I will tolerate for first. Engadget should move you to the top of the list!
Jesus dear God in heaven and The mothers of all lords......please don't torture us with such a contraption....
whoa whoa whoa. I can see this as increasing gaming among girls.
Online dating services will make a fortune with all the soon to be antisocial girls...
Ha, o well. I think that female gamers are growing, and everyone is trying to accommodate. I remember back all you could be was a male character, with exceptions to games in which a female was the main character (tomb raider). Now you can choose to be a male or a female in many new games.
Just sayin.

No one cares about your website. Changing your username won't fool us into thinking you're someone else... btw.
Sorry Sony. I can't see a new PSP color and one game all of a sudden getting girls to want PSPs.
I can't a new psp color and one new game saving this failing platform... Make a damn psp2 you (sony) idiots, it well over due.
Soon, your ass will get whooped by a online chick
Mine just did in Socom.
There's a lot of hateful comments, but that color looks good. I'm not sure why since I'm not a girl. ;) It's better than the overdone pink, I guess. If it weren't tied to Hannah Montana, I could see it being used by an older crowd as well.
I'd stick to tried and true black though.
I agree, but it would have to be primary black with lilac highlights before i'd whip it out in public. My desktop is usually colored as I described.
Hannah Montana?! Oh god, please kill me now!
DId I still heard the word "UMD"? Why are Sony so stubborn?
I can't say that I'd buy it for myself, but for people that want an alternative color, I think it looks nice. Certainly better than the blue option on the DSi, I think.
next thing we'll see is a Hello Kitty branded psp. that colour is fucking ugly as sin. who puked that up after rice and chicken balls last night?
Oh and ASSASSINS Creed was THE WORST GAME OF THE LAST TWO YEARS, it will kill the psp or brick it like it did to ps3's. GARBAGE
hello kitty on psp...eh...too easy :)

I don't know why you guys are overreacting so much, Hannah Montana is a kinda cool show, im forced to watch it when my cousin comes over, its funny.
no
it fits sony's style... FAILURE gg sony
I don't understand what's wrong with you people. I'm secure enough in my masculinity to carry a lilac PSP and you should be, too.
I'd love a new PSP... But there's no point in buying one until they fix the screens. ...Which they said they weren't going to do.
Sony, less colours, more decent games please
Uh... Hannah Mantana's face id plastered on another perfectly good product. She is like a deasese that slowly kills it's pray and then continues to eats its decaying body. Uh...
That would've been a clever comment, if not for the TERRIBLE spelling mistakes.

See?
Sorry, I am typing on my iPhone and am not very good. But still, u are rude.
I still like my old PSP (ya know, the one that feels good and solid in your hands, and weighs about 5 lbs.) better than those new plastic things that Sony is trying to pawn off as PSP's.
So, Japan got some awesome metallic colors, and we got lilac? Damn u Sony USA.
PSP-P
"The brand, spankin' new Play-Station Portable Pink!"
how many do you think they will sell? I reckon 5000
Why do people get so worked up over a new color like it is the end of the world? There is nothing wrong with having options. I, for one, think that the lilac looks nice.
Hey, where are the "This is [insert company name here]'s attempt to gain interest in this dead [product name here] scam" comments? You know, like the one Timm accused MS of in the red 360 article?
Thanks Sony, you just single-handedly shut your own fanboys' pie holes by announcing the lilac PSP on the same day as the red 360! Awesome!
LBP was also announced for the PSP

Yeah, but what will the RRoD look like on this?
Oops! Wrong thread....
Quite adorable. A perfect match for my purple pumps and purple purse. As soon as I'm trans-gendered, I'll be good to go. All together girls.... You go PSP.
aint to girl gonna buy this, there all DS fans!
it sorta kinda looks cool
HM, wtf!!! Even some 13 y.o have a bit more taste than that.. Get Crysis on PSP, it'll be insanely awesome. Now thats a game worthy of its own pack.
My eyes! My Eyes!
SCEA's new slogan...
Colors. Because it works for Nintendo.
Add some hot Miley Cyrus wallpapers and it's sold lol
Breaking news? Seriously? Hahah Awesome.
No tech advancement, kill them with color and endorsements.
12 year old girls are screaming for iPod touch. Music, videos, games, app store, cool
Great colour.
I like it. Screw you guys.
That's the problem with these limited edition psp entertainment packs, only the US and maybe Japan get them whereas over here in the UK we only get the usuall black and white one's. Its only been recently that sony europe has decided to release other colours and even now we only get red and silver as the other colours. It would be nice to have some of these packs released over here and as it's been said before yeah it is a nice colour, at least it's better than usuall black and white ones.
Is it just the games that come in the bundle or doesn't it have her ugly face on it? cuz its such a pretty color i want it but i need to know first!!!
