After the much-hyped up introduction of the PSP camera, Sony is now ready to release it to the market.

Starring in the Tokyo Game Show on September 22, the much-awaited PSP camera will finally be showcased, along with the GPS receiver unit. But the PSP camera's debut is not the only event that is being watched out for. On that same show, gamers can, for the first time, actually test the PS3 from a range of 27 titles. Games like Warhawk, Ridge Racer 7, Fatal Inertia, Heavenly Sword to mention a few are available in Sony's booth.

A navigation software will also be displayed, though not much is known about it. The guess is that there will be different versions with navigation data specific to each country. The booths will have special access points where you can download the trial version of new games on a Memory Stick and later play on the PSP.

I like the water effect when I move myself side to side, cuz I went to E3 this year and its awesome! I even saw two memory stick pro duos, a 4GB and a 8GB! Then I saw the Playstation Spot to downloads Loco Roco Demo but I didn't, cuz I have 1.50, lol! I can tell the Camera will drains the battery fast, cuz of add-on.

Does anybody know if ithe camera has a flash? cause if it doesnt it will prob take shyt pictures, how about zooming in and out? and the price?

Now the GPS sounds cool if its at a nice price.

# -.- — Guest 2006-08-23 06:43

Well if the GPS is nice and cheap im finally going to have to let go 1.5 after a year and a half of having it since i am in a desperate need of it :S

# jordan8930 2006-08-23 07:07

Can it record?

# 1.5- 3.0 or 2.9 Would rock ***** ha ha — Guest 2006-08-23 08:01

i will never leave 1.5...

# eyetoy games? — Guest 2006-08-23 09:09

Will there be any eyetoy games for this? Otherwise I don't see the point of it...

# video maby — Jumpin Jehosaphat 2006-08-23 09:45

think this might support recording short video clips.

# jordan8930 2006-08-23 09:52

thats fine for me because thats the reason I would get it. For 20$ thats pretty good to me! I there is a good game coming out for it then I would check it out.

The booths will have special access points where you can download the trial version of new games on a Memory Stick and later play on the PSP.

I sure hope someone decides to share those demos with the werld.

# @___@ — Guest 2006-08-23 11:01

looks nice.im looking forward to it.

.:"^*^":.judge it when it comes out.:"^*^":.

# lilfibs 2006-08-23 12:11

its sounds cool but it looks kinda funny

# Guest 2006-08-23 13:20

hey madonion dont u think that the little cube on the left is the flash thing

# hey — Guest 2006-08-23 19:15

wow tha first ever massivly made video phone............with this theres no more need for that *****ty side kick thing

youll actually be able to speak and see some one as long as you have a hot spot nearby and as ive heard the whole u.s. will be blanketed with a free stong hotspot connected all the time.....paid for by all the add companys that want you to swee there products anywhere anytime

the only other video phones ive seen are the ones on the new broadcasting from iraq to the u.s

why isnt this a BIG DEAL?

hopefully sony wont just make a low end camera and maby might make higher quality for people that are into it

# UPSKIRT SNAP — Guest 2006-08-23 19:24

can any body help me? i have been wanting to get a good top quality SONY cybershot camera but im only interested if i can take my memory card strait out of it and view them on my psp because i remember that a while ago i tried to view some bmp pictures i drew that were 3mb each on it but the psp said that "picture cannot be viewed file too large 2607kb" or something like that

what is the limit of megapixels viewable on the psp?

i wanted a 7.5 or 10 megapixel camera or better

# new game for use with sony cam — Guest 2006-08-23 19:25

Its multiplyer.Its called, psp-porn. You just strip in front of the low-end/quality psp camera, then the other players that are watching you online are gonna rate a score for you. Do your best to get the highest score.

This sony addon is lame and is too late..

# P3d0F1l3 — Guest 2006-08-23 19:31

WILL THE POLICE BE ABLE TO TRACK YOU DOWN WITH THIS IF YOU TAKE ILLEAGE PICS?

# aww better off gettin yourself a real cam'ra — Guest 2006-08-23 19:38

this thing looks semi intresting except that it doesnt have flash it looks way worse then the concept one back in tha day and you probrably cant do alot of the thing i hope for like high speed video cofrencing and be able to mess with your pics or be able to put a red sticker on your finger have the psp recognize it and write your name in the air using it and zoom feater or alot more

WOW I JUST SOLD MYSELF OUT OF THIS ONE;(

# FUNK MY BAZKET BHALLZ GAWD DAMN NIGKA — Guest 2006-08-23 19:45

YAY! im getting a ps3 after a few months and the fix the catching on fire and melting/scratching your cd's

the next gta is gonna suck cause its on both systems and rockstar is ristricted to those chitty 9 gigs cant want for a no holds barred ps3 exclusive taken to tha limit

in tha long run ps3 gonna have tha best games

i been seeing many videos of saints row and the same cars keep poppin up and the city looks plain or dull maby 9 gigs isnt enough to werk wit

# errrr — Guest 2006-08-23 22:21

where does the usb go? when the camera is on top?

# lol — Guest 2006-08-23 22:29

***** yeah, this owns

# wooo — Guest 2006-08-24 00:19

You wont need a wire itwill just plug in and you will be able to save your videos or it will just be pointless also it can be used as webcam and an eyetoy will come out and it proberly will have flash and will take pictures and overall it will be so boring because there is nothing to do, why not just buy a camera with higher pictures, pretty much everyones questions answered

# cool — Guest 2006-08-24 03:36

lets hope its decent enough and do you know the usb digi cans with the fat usb u cud use 1 of then with a psp connecter

# 1.3 MEGAPIXELS — Guest 2006-08-24 04:21

HOW CRAP

# nice! — Guest 2006-08-24 04:35

I think the camera will be pretty cool but dnt get too exited because it will probably only be 1.3 megapixels which is like a mobile phone camera. however, it would not be as clear or sharp as a proper cannon or sony digital camera. if you could record video and if it will have good features then i would definately buy 1 :p.

# Guest 2006-08-24 05:47

I wonder if they can make a program that uses the pspcamera as a webcam, say your playing your psp game. Then some friend of yours with a psp rings your psp then webcam mode comes on and pauses your game, then you talk thrue your socom headset with a mic.

Free telephone method right there! LOL you would need a internet connection.....and hope my dream comes true :P.Whos with me!

# NR 23. — Guest 2006-08-24 06:16

NR 23. no that cube u saw on the left is a round screw to fix it to the psp.

http://www.generationmp3.com/generationpsp/images/News/psp_camera_1.jpg

Hmm it looks like it has no FLASH but has a macro option...see the flower on the right side, that usually means macro mode.

# ahahahahha — Guest 2006-08-24 15:23

Calm down you Fruits...... the PSP 2 will have that built in.... but since all you homebrew loving queers like adding stupid looking accessories to your PSP 1 and making it look like a white trash caravan, you should definitely be excited to buy this goofy looking thing.

# ^_^ — miniharvs1900 2006-08-29 15:03

This is a really cool feature.. Im excited for its release.

# blow — Guest 2006-09-04 06:41

no its not! its an 1.3mp

# c00l — Guest 2006-09-08 17:59

this is s00 sweet!!!!
