what do you guys think so far... for those who watch the sony E3 coverage.

price $249 wifi $299 3g/wifi

most powerful handheld so far and a massive 1st & 3rd party support.

4 core cpu
OLED touchscreen+ rear touchpad
six axis motion
dual analog, direction & bunch of buttons.
F&r camera
you can play with ps3 or vita players.

buy or pass? on your wish list?

*LimeLite Racing* · 06-06-2011, 08:24 PM

I would have to research it more, but it sounds pretty sick for the price.

*enkei2k* · 06-06-2011, 08:32 PM

why must everything go through AT&T/future T-Mobile 3G? i'm surprised since it's supposed to be the bomb diggity, why they didn't opt for 4G instead...that being said, i'd be satisfied with just the wifi version IF i were to get one.

BOROSUN · 06-06-2011, 08:37 PM

yeah, for that much tech. ppl were thinking it was going to be on the 400-500 price range.

i'd llike see more of the 3rd party titles. sony only showed a little.

SimpleS14 · 06-06-2011, 09:23 PM

I'm not in the market for one, but it's very impressive hardware for the price.

If they can make a handheld with such specs, I can only imagine what PS4 has in store.

GSM is easier to adopt when you want a product like this to be global. 4G would be nice, but I doubt the battery life would be.

BOROSUN · 06-06-2011, 09:33 PM

yeah the reason the cpu is held back also. it's capable of 2ghz.

BOROSUN · 06-07-2011, 09:38 AM

the official trailer

dudermagee · 06-07-2011, 10:04 AM

bet it will be able to play PS2 roms too

*exitspeed* · 06-07-2011, 11:48 AM

Since it's on AT&T, I'll pass. Plus I hardly have time to play video games when I'm home, let a lone on the go. I wouldn't drop console money on a handheld.

QFT. I have a PSP and it's cool when i go on roadtrips or when im taking a fat dump. but I'd much rather play a console on a big screen then play on a portable. I rarely have time to game when im not at home anyways. It still looks cool thought bu i think il pass.

TheWolf · 06-07-2011, 04:20 PM

What am I supposed to do with 6 axis video conferencing that only talks to other shit talking 12 year olds who parents bought the same $300 wonder box? I could see it's application if I was a congressman but not sure what else. i think it's cool and a neat piece of tech for people who "really like" video games. I'm just not $300 into video games that much any more.

BOROSUN · 06-07-2011, 04:36 PM

well, like the wiiU...it probably can do the same. the endless possibilities.

if you're looking the next powerful handheld gaming, vita is a beast. you dont have to buy the 3g its just a option.

also why are you making friends to 12yrold?

BOROSUN · 02-05-2012, 11:19 PM

confrimed....vita can do the same.

patented before wii U, sony already had the idea/technology.

Sony patented Wii U-esque controller, has pics to prove it | Joystiq

also this tech is available on their new sony tablets.

*ronmcdon* · 02-06-2012, 12:49 AM

not interested at all either.
Im happy with the games on my iphone (which is usually just suduku).
even if this was free I wouldn't want to lug around another piece of hardware.

kids these days have too much fucking time.
do you seriously have to be gaming every waking moment of your life?!

*DreamN* · 02-06-2012, 12:59 AM

^werd.

My EVO helps with boredom all to well.

BOROSUN · 02-06-2012, 01:30 AM

sorry...

vita = applies to real gamers only

iphone = phone? i have iphone too with garbage wanabe games.

S14kouki_10 · 02-06-2012, 11:40 AM

This thing is pretty cool, i got to play with one at work. No time for handheld games though.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 02-06-2012, 11:56 AM

I lost the desire to want any portables. I got my iphone for games on the go. I'm more of a casual gamer nowadays anyways. I play games when I have too much time and when I'm sitting down doing nothing. Just need it now to kill some time.

Fred Allen Burge · 02-06-2012, 11:56 AM

Does it make phone calls? If not who would really carry it around with them?

*wangan_cruiser* · 02-06-2012, 12:40 PM

Sony has not said that. They said they are in no hurry to release PS4.

Sony in No Rush to Reveal PlayStation 4 - PS3 News at IGN

And the original rumor was that "someone" wouldn't join the next gen of consoles, and that was just some analyst's opinion.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 02-06-2012, 01:34 PM

Do they really need to jump on a new console? I still dont think they've broke even on PS3 yet.

when you have 3g you can skype,text, or whatever program sony makes for communication.

h2v7 · 02-06-2012, 01:46 PM

too old for handhelds would play it on a plane ride or something though

*!Zar!* · 02-06-2012, 01:49 PM

I lost interest in handhelds after someone stole my Nintendo DS.

I also think that there is no need for 3g to be on handheld devices. I mean if you are out and about in places that don't have wifi, chances are you have better things to be doing.

oh yeah, i think they broke it. most sony exclusive titles are pushing it already.

these are why sony is waiting...

1. war with apple

2. new xbox

3. 4k & 8k 3d tv

Besides those reasons they said all along that they had a 10 year life cycle planned for PS3. Even if they launch in 2013 it's a few years AHEAD of what they were planning.

*tricky_ab* · 02-06-2012, 04:10 PM

My friend brought back one from Japan over Christmas...He asked if I wanted one but I'll wait till they start releasing them in different colours (Yeah I'm like that).

Anyways, you guys are in for a real treat! I played BlazBlue, MVC3 and Uncharted. They ALL looked freakin AMAZING! It's like a mini PS3 and the screen is to die for (You'll see once you get to use one).

The system is a bit big but it's comfortable in your hands...

atom · 02-06-2012, 04:52 PM

Even though games on smartphones generally suck (I usually only play old PSX or GBA games on my phone with an emulator), I don't want to carry another device with me just to play games.
