D3 Says Bye-Bye To UMD, Hello To PSN For PSP Releases

[wraggster]

D3Publisher is bringing its PSP library to the PlayStation Store, meaning that games like Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords and WTF: work time fun will shed their UMD mortal coils, becoming glorious digital downloads at prices well below their real world retail predecessors. Over the next two months, the following PSP games will be added to the PlayStation Stores on both the PlayStation 3 and PC, giving you a chance to play some potentially missed gems without having to get up off your ass.

Cube – September 18, 2008 for $9.99.
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords – September 18, 2008 for $14.99.
WTF: work time fun – October 2, 2008 for $9.99.
PQ: Practical Intelligence Quotient – October 2, 2008 for $9.99.
PQ2: Practical Intelligence Quotient 2 – October 16, 2008 for $14.99.
Dead Head Fred - October 16, 2008 for $14.99.

You know, for ten bucks, I could maybe see some PQ: Practical Intelligence Quotient in my life.

Although you can get most of those cheaper at the retail stores, anything the allows people to play these lost classics is a good thing.

I think its a good idea. Could inspire lots of developers to take a chance with the PSP with small games for digital distribution. Makes it less risky.
