…was officially announced yesterday at E3.
The new version of Sony’s popular PSP will be released on October 1st and will retail for $249. The Go has a hidden set of controls that slide from under the screen…kind of like a cell phone. It’s also 50 percent smaller and 40 percent lighter than the original PSP-1000. The Go doesn’t have a UMD drive, instead the games will be loaded via Memory Stick Micro slot or over PlayStation Network.

* Approx. 128 x 16.5 x 69 mm (width x height x depth)

It looks nice…but $249 sounds a little expensive for a handheld game.
