Not a news and review show this week, but my thoughts on how Sony and the PSP are faring in 2008. From a strong start to the year with Wipeout Pulse, Patapon and God of War, they’ve kinda let the side down. There’s some good vibes coming from Sony on the second half of the year (there would be, naturally), but I remain to be convinced.

My thinking detailed in more depth in the show, is we need more regularity to the market, over a four week cycle, that goes something like this…

Week 1: Release a big, flagship game.
Week 2: Release something cute, around $5, on the Playstation online store
Week 3: Release a second tier game, that’s quirky and fun, perhaps experimental.
Week 4: Add a new service to the PSP, either via a firmware update, or a utility app via the store.
