PSP Go Not Doing So Well?
So got the typical newsletter type thing from the Playstation Network. Apparently they were giving away Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines if you bought a PSP Go. And I thought… wait a second here…
Was the PSP Go not doing so well? I’m all for promotions, but this was the first time that there was a giveaway that I can remember with this portable system. Not that it’s a huge deal or anything, but for the price, you do have to wonder. I myself have not purchased one yet since my older PSPs seem to do just fine and I have yet to encounter many downloads on the PSN store itself that I want to buy for my PSP. The minis just don’t have enough movement and they don’t seem to release them fast enough to make it worthwhile. In fact, I’m disappointed with both Nintendo’s and Sony’s shift in these stores since they seem to release them very slowly instead of cranking it up and allowing user-created content to push to the top.
Either way, it was surprising enough that I figured it was worth mentioning.

I think it’s a marketing gimmick from Sony to gain a larger share of players from the gaming market. Moreover it could had been a tied up promotion with the game company to promote Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines. Anyway I am waiting for them to come out with a PSP version of MAG.
