Wouldn't it be cool if they maybe gave this away when you bought the new PSP.

Seriously though I think they have too many of these bundles and skus. With the DS you pick a color and that's it. You don't pay for Hannah Montana or things of that nature you may not want or think is worth it.

Wasn't this suppose to be released with the psp like 4 years ago?

Im going to "pass" on this one.

Actually, you can download GT PSP for free if you register your PSP Go before Oct 10th. I will be sticking with my trusty old Phat though.

Yeah, all signs are pointing to a release of GT5 soon. Which is great. I will definitely pick up GT 5. I'm of two minds about GT PSP though. It is one game I would like to try the demo of first.

Actually I was ripping on Sony. It's a Europe promo, not a U.S. promo. We get Rock Band sampler. I can't complain though, since I'm not buying another PSP and Europe usually gets the shaft.

Still very interested to see how they plan on dealing with your existing UMD's. They have to at least have an idea by now don't they?

thhe..thheee... thats all folks

I hadn't realised that it was PAL only.
