For those of you like me out there, most PSP games are not worth $40 when you can get PS3 or 360 games new, especially during the holiday season, for $40 and play them on a big screen and in HD. Toys R Us has a sale on Resistance: Retribution for $14.99 so this may be the time to pick it up. If you don't have a Toys R Us near you don't fret, almost every store including Best Buy, Target and Wal Mart does price matching. If you can't get your hands on the ad here is a link to it and hopefully they will honor it. Resistance Retribution interacts with Resistance 2 to unlock some cool features.
WorthPlaying contacted SCEA to find out if it planned to match the PSPgo Rewards program announced by SCEE this morning and was told that Sony had no plans at this time to match the European offer.
There are plenty of deals on video games this week, as much as 50% off some games and gear. Guitar Hero games and accessories, as well as PlayStation hardware too. Here's a round-up of various video game deals that are going on this week. You may want to check them out soon, because supplies are limited!

PSP pirates, however have weak excuses like: 'Otherwise I wouldn't have bought the game anyway' or 'I'll pay already for games on my PS3. It seemed us interesting to ask one of the best PSP developers what they think about PSP piracy.

The week ahead belongs to the portable gaming systems, with several big titles for the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP, and nothing new for the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3. Rockstar Games brings Grand Theft Auto to the DS with Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. PSP gamers can look forward to Resistance Retribution. Don't forget to link up to Resistance 2 on the PS3!
