Sony has announced it will launch a successor to its best-selling PlayStation Portable handheld system during a speech at the Leipzig Games Convention in Germany.
The PSP-3000 will feature an "advanced LCD screen supporting higher image quality" and will launch in Europe on October 15, complete with one software title, for €199 (£158).
Sony said the new PSP screen will allow for "crisper colours with more definition when outside in natural light".
A number of one-title bundles will become available with the PSP-3000, including a GO! communications package, and several games bundles such as FIFA 09, Harry Potter and Buzz: Master Quiz.
Since the launch of the Slim & Lite PlayStation Portable in September 2007, more than 13.4 million units have been sold in PAL territories.

I wont be getting it, I have the PSP and hate it
it will just be another flop like the PSP has been because of the Nintendo DS being dominant. A new DS is being released in Japan this year so expect that to crush the PSP.
hasnt psp sold more then the ds?
hasnt psp sold more then the ds?

Yeah It's just an upgrade. In that case I'll stick to the one I got, I'm not shelling out that much for a brighter picture and a microphone. :laugh:

I've heard rumours and seen designs but I'll be surprised if a brand new DS will be out this year. Maybe a year or two, It always takes a few years to bring out a new console.
i hope they are bringing out more FF''s on the psp

As well as a new kingdom Hearts game and the new Parasite Eve.
that wont be out until next year though will it?
There are also rumours that Microsoft may be making a Portable XBox. I will so get that if they do.

There's also a fighting Final Fantasy game called Dissidia coming out for it too.

I'm so looking foward to it, I can't wait to play as Squall, Ultimecia, Terra and Cloud!
Plus from the look of things the fighting looks a lot like Advent Children which can never be a bad thing!

They will never make it because it would never sell because on the dominance of Nintendo and Sony in the handheld market. It would just be another PSP and the PSP isn't doing well so the portable Xbox wouldn't either.
The PS4 and Xbox 720 are expected to be released around 2011. So the new handhelds will probably be released next year or 2010.
XBOX 720 is that name confirmed
what a stupid name

I don't know if its been confirmed but all the reports say it will be called that so that will probably be the name.
I don't like it, whats so special about 720?
