Following last week's momentous PS3 unboxing video this week we've got another Sony hardware surprise with the unboxing of a PSP Go, the new cutified, sexified, sliding PlayStation Portable.

To see the first glimpse of a PSP Go in the wild (well in our office) see the video below where we mumble about it a bit and try to rub the fingerprints off unsucessfully.

More later...

meh I think I'll pass on this one, no need for ANOTHER psp, especially when it doesn't even support UMDs anymore.

I really don't understand what was wrong with the old PSP; why do all console designers seem to think that thiner is better, it is to a certain degree but this is just getting stupid if i was to buy one i would be so scared that i was going to snap it so...
i won't be buying one anytime soon!

Yuck. The PSP is the worst handheld ever. This looks nice, but never judge a book by its cover. All this probably does is slide. OHHH, LOOK AT THE SLIDING PSP! ITS SO AWESOME! LOOK IT SLIDES! WOW! I HAVE A PHONE THAT DOES THIS! LOOK AT THE PSP SLIDING! WOW, YOU@VE GOTTA BE A NOOB IF YOU LOVE THIS! LOOK HOW IT SLIDES UP AND DOWN! OHHH! AHHH! SLIDEY!

felixthecat,

the psp is far from the worst handheld ever. its not even the worst handheld in the last 10 years. the ngage and gizmondo were at least 10 tiimes worse. the psp while it has its issues is a pretty nifty device.

all that said i wont be buying a psp go

Not thinking I'll be making that purchase. Can always buy a 16GB card WITH UMD support, that won't even further cramp my fingers.

The N-gage was stupid and THE worst handheld ever. But they have done nothing to actually improve the PSP itself by the looks of things. APART FROM MAKE IT SLIDE UP AND DOWN! WOW! LOOK AT THE SLIDEY!

Well, they have given it a 16 GB hard drive and taken away the need for UMDs. So they haven't just made it slide. It also looks better IMO and more pocketable. Not that I like the PSP that much, I just you are being a bit of an arrogant idiot about the whole thing.

And I won't bother getting this - my PSP cost me £35 and I am not willing to spend anymore than that on this.

We cool man, we cool. Im trying to express my point however that, yeah, 16 GB hard drive, yeah no UMD's, BUT LOOK AT THE SLIDEY SLIDEY!

Eh, I don't have a PSP so I'll guess I'll buy one.

The first and last PSP I bought was the original one. This looks like something that would be good to upgrade to. I just like how it's more portable. It looks like it would fit easlily in your pocket and you wouldn't have to carry UMDs around. I'll probably wait for the price drop though.

haha, looks cool, but a little more cheap then the original design, kind of plasticky.

smart to put this up after the slim unboxing vid's success, but I doubt people care as much about this...

I don't see why they would take away the UMD. i mean, it was so succesful:

Universal Media Disc' is a backronym for UMD. This term refers to the fact that the UMD will only run on the PSP and will universally be useless for any other machine, player, or console. Sony views this as a personal accomplishment, and laughs at those who do not see it their way.

I'll take the Go into consideration. I never got the original psp anyway. It would definitely be something to take to college to play during free time.
