PSP Holding No Punches?

It seems that Sony after announcing such a low price point for the PSP, that they would follow it up with some more info. But this time around, there seems to be a rumor circling around that Sony will offer demos of upcoming PSP games via the Worl Wide Web. This source comes from a developer for the upcoming handheld by Sony. Sony released a statement in regards to this rumor.....

"We haven't made any announcements regarding the process for downloading content for the PSP, so any information otherwise is purely speculation." --Sony representative.

The scheme that is being rumored is where Sony puts demos up on their website for downloading to your computer. Then you would transfer the demos over to the memory stick via the USB 2.0 port. This proposal has a "Ying/Yang" aspect to it...........

-allowing for Sony to distribute their demos to a wide audience for virtually free, increasing more potential in their games sinces gamers will have a first hads view of the upcoming title.

-the bad news is that becuase of the increase in size of the memory cards (up to 2GB), there is a potential for piracy, something that has been hurting Sony.

It also seems that other sources are stating that Sony had this planned from the beginning. But as it stands, its just a rumor til we actually see and hear more about it. Stay tune for up-to-the minute updates on what could potentially boost Sony sales...
