Sony promises "best year ever" for PSP

Sony is preparing to hit us with more major videogame franchises as it continues its renewed focus on the PSP format.

While industry rumour has centred on hardware revisions for the handheld, Sony itself is concentrating on new software, with heavyweight brands promised to be revealed for the PSP in the coming months.

"There's a lot of software coming. We're really focused on software, and I don't think that's a big surprise given that it's going to be the best software year the PSP has ever had, there's no doubt," said John Koller, director of hardware marketing for SCEA, in an exclusive interview published today.

What major franchises could these be?

The BIG question is:

Will the BEST Software year EVER Translate to the best HARDWARE year ever for the handheld?

Some HELP to see how PSP is doing so far over previous years:
