The PS3 version of Oblivion launches across Europe today, but what ever happened to the lonely old PSP version that was unveiled last year?

Just over a year ago we reported rumours of a PS3 and PSP version of Bethesda's hit action-RPG series. Last September saw the PSP version announced to the world alongside official confirmation of the PS3 version.

Since then we've been patiently waiting for any info on the handheld version, in development at Climax. We called publisher Ubisoft yesterday to see if there's any update on the game, and just to check that it's still in development. We were met with a "no comment" from a Ubi spokesperson.

Make of that what you will, but it looks like the game's been put quietly on hold to us. We'll continue to chase a real update, but file the PSP version under missing in action for the moment.

No, they were dimming the graphics a bunch. They also made no outside levels... :(

The same was thought about Silent Hill, but now it's back. So, it's possible either way...

the main thing people seem to be missing is that the ps3 version is basically a port of existing software. and the psp one will have to be built from scratch so its obviously gonna take longer

I agree with this. The thing that makes a TES game is the ability to roam and wander to your hearts content.

Here's hoping to a change of heart, its not like the PSP can't have a massive streaming environment if you take Test Drive for an example.
