Forums - Sony Discussion - PSP2 to have 2 screens?

I don't think 2 screens are a necessity in gaming. The DS utilized them intelligently and certainly many games benefited from it. However there are many games which are awesome, just played on a single screen. If that weren't the case console gaming would be DEAD.

I think Sony's PSP, similarly to the current PSP will focus more on translating console gaming on the go. The DS provides an entirely different experience, removed from traditional console games. Both can succeed, but Sony needs fix a number of problems that plagued the PSP to be successful. Judging by the PsP GO I'm not sure that they have learned their mistake. They're focusing too much on piracy prevention (which they SHOULD, don't get me wrong) but ignoring the other issues.

Why do you cant? I dont think this design is more than 6 inches high.

It's got to be about 50% taller than a PSP at the very least

Regular PSP is 2 inches and 3/4 tall.

I never said 6", but I wouldn't be able to fit a PSP and a half in my pocket

I would easily imagine this device being 6 inches large by 3.5 inches tall when close. Its a 16/9 screen after all. It could be just a bit bigger than the PSPgo. Not sure how you got the conclusion this product would be big. Did the person designing this, publish the dimension he would give it? If not you can zoom into a bactery and make it looks like its 12 inches * 12 inches, but its not the case.

Well, simply because the area with the PlayStation controls looks like it take up half the height of the device. In the PSP go, they are basically the height of the device. I know they could squeeze it down, which is why I went with the conservative estimate of 50% taller

The PSPgo controls also takes half of it, I just looked at mine. But the controls looks like they would take a bit more room because of the dual analogue. But still, It could fit in almost the same gabary if the tech permit it.



no, there is no need for a 2nd screen, I'm sure they will do something similar to the iphone



 

mM

If they don't do 2 screens, they'll never catch up when Nintendo starts doing 4 screens.

Just look at the sides, and tell me that the concept doesn't look much taller, in terms of height of the controls, but also what portion of the side of console they take up

Like I said, it doesnt appear much bigger. Half an inch more for the analogue and another half inch more for the screen would do it

LOL I've just seen this on the net.... Here we have the PSP2 design (just joking)

However the first conpet art shown before was really cool....It embraces both portability and the PS philosophy of high-tech/HD-capability.

I like this one the most.
