Rumors of a touchscreen-capable PSP 2 have been running rampant for the past few days. There was that survey from
Sony asking about new PSP features just a few days ago, and then, the rumor column of
UK OPM also listed that games are already being developed for the next-gen handheld.
Are they all true? More like poppycock, says Sony.
IGN has learned from several credible sources that the PSP 2 is indeed on the horizon, and will be packing multi-touch technology. According to our sources, the PSP 2 will feature a widescreen multi-touch interface comparable to that of the iPhone for both in-game control and menu navigation.
Clearly,
being a quiet time of year, many, what we thought to be credible
websites, are making up stories about PSP 2, 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.
