Well this is the strangest story I've read all day. Poor lady must have been so confused, she probably didn't even know what PSP was, all because of Sony's marketing. They're the real criminals here.

Yep that's why I had to post it lol

"The friend was sent off in search of the device but returned empty handed, and the ransom deadline was extended by two hours."

That's the most hilarious thing I've read in a long, long time.

First of all, the friend came back with nothing. I mean, they let the guy go, which is just crazy, and he came back with nothing?

I'm guessing the whole crowd is screwed up, everybody is lying, and the reporter only got about 1/4th of the story.

You can, you just can't buy it from PSN.

Lollll I guess piracy has a solution to everything

They should have found me to have sex with her.
Me: *takes off pantsp*
Her: What are you doing?
Me: *whispers* I'm saving your life. I don't have AIDS. Just play along.

meh, I've played PSP and let me tell you, it's certanly not worth torturing a woman over.. These guys have some poor taste.

lol they're acting like its THAT hard to get a PS4, its not like when the Wii launched and you couldn't find it for about 6 months.

But Kotaku doesn't usually fuck up that hard on their sources or typos, so I think they really did want a PSP

The PSP had some fantastic games e.g. Crisis Core, Dissidia, Disgaea, MGS Peace Walker, Kingdom hearts BBS and GTAs.

If you tell me that those games are bad, then I don't know what's good.

Also you can play GBA/SNES games via emulator on a PSP so if the bad taste extends to that, you're insulting some of the best Nintendo games.

What's even more sicking about it is that they were demanding a PSP.
