Sony's PlayStation Portable GPS receiver peripheral may not have a final name yet, but it is getting some major support. In addition to the latest Hot Shots Golf game, announced earlier this year at the peripheral's unveiling, Sony revealed today that Konami will be supporting the accessory with Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops.

The exact nature of support in the new Metal Gear Solid game is unclear at this time. However, we'll get a closer look in the next few weeks, as Portable Ops is scheduled to be shown as a highlight title for the GPS receiver at the Tokyo Game Show, which kicks off in Japan on September 22.

In addition to Metal Gear and Hot Shots Golf, the GPS receiver will be shown at TGS along side Sega's Homestar Portable planetarium software and a mysterious new navigation game from Idea.

There's news I missed. There's a new Hot Shots Golf coming to PSP?!? It somehow uses the GPS device? Could someone plz explain that?

maybe for the golf it can create a play field of your current area???

for MGS:PO im guessing it can be used to recruit new soldiers, much like the way you must recruit soldiers by finding various Wi-Fi access points.

or maybe certain tasks must be met for training, such as traveling 40 miles to earn a reward??? it might be crazy, but anything goes in metal gear…

Maybe it's going to be the "radar"...

But it's gonna be kinda difficult huh?

Sounds cool, just wondering how they will implement it into the game though. *wonders to self*

That would be sick if you could use it to play as snake in real life and assign certain people to be the enemy. And use your PSP as a radar. Of course that would also be extremely realistic. Just kidding
