SCEA VP Peter Dille comments on entertainment and PSP (and PSP 2.0)

It's time to kick this machine up a notch - Image 1While Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) exec Jack Tretton talked about PSP Store (or whatever they will call the service) during Gamers Day, another SCEA exec, this time Marketing VP Peter Dille, talks about the same service. In the movies, TV, and music content department, the PSP has a lot more room to grow, and Dille admits it's high time that it did grow:

The missing ingredient for us has been making it easier for consumers to get video content or music content to the PSP, because the device has this awesome technical playback capability, awesome screen built for video and yet we donÂ’t make it terribly easy for people to access any content. So weÂ’re looking to fix that.


So what are the plans for the PSP Store (tentative name we're assigning)? GameInformer asked him during Gamers Day if it will involve the PSP's Wi-Fi capabilities or require the PS3 for cross-downloading?
Peter can announce no details, but he says "I think both paths are open to us." Dille also foresees this rolling out later this year.

When questioned about that new PSP model, Dille held up his hands. "
SonyÂ’s a technology company so there are lots of people out there wondering what weÂ’ll do next. But as a rule, we donÂ’t comment on rumors or speculation." What he could say, though, is Sony's confidence in the PSP - as a format, and not just as the SKU. As well as the many games coming for the machine in the foreseeable future, Dille believes that the downloadable entertainment media service is what will "energize the market."

Yo

Watch as the room rocks

Mentally moon walk

Mixed media slang

Banging in your boom box

Verbal violence

Lyrical stylist

In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish

You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty

Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an emcee

With your lack of skill and facility

You're killing me

And a DJ in the group just for credibility

I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes

You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines

Rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer

Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years

But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up

All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck

So how does it stack up

None of it's real

You want to be an emcee you've got to study the skill



Who can rock a rhyme like this

Bring it to you every time like this

Who can rock a rhyme like this

Step, step up, step, step up



So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity

But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy

With a tendency to make up stories

Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40 (top 40)

And your record company is completely missing it

All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate

So in a battle you can't hack it

React with whack *****

And get smacked with verbal back flips

Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts

It's taken decades for emcees to establish this

You're new to hip hop and welcome if your serious

But not on the mic

Leave that to the experienced



Using the waves of sound the true master

Paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack



Who can rock a rhyme like this

Bring it to you every time like this

Who can rock a rhyme like this

Step, step up, step, step up



Who can rock a rhyme like this

Bring it to you every time like this

Who can rock a rhyme like this

Step, step up, step, step up, step up



After years of pain staking research by the world's

Leading sound scientists, we here at the sound

Institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system.

Actual movement of musical sound in space used to

Carefully attack and neutralize the cellular structure of

The human body, so the question must be asked.



Who can rock a rhyme like this

Bring it to you every time like this

Who can rock a rhyme like this

Step, step up ,step, step up



Who can rock a rhyme like this

Bring it to you every time like this

Who can rock a rhyme like this

Step, step up, step, step up, Step up!

Mixed media

Step up to the microphone

And you do it like this

And you do it like this

Step up to the mircophone

And you do it like this

Step up to the mircophone

And you do it like this

Step up to the mircophone

And you do it like this...

Someone who wants to pirate games will find a way to do so regardless of how much Sony locks the psp.Only one Sony is cutting off here is the average homebrew user.

I think he is saying that the psp needs to be more media friendly than it is now. As in easier to add content for the incompetent idiots out there who dont even read the short manual (there is a Quick manual and a full manual which includes 2 languages making it look HUGE) therefore, asking people online on how to make their MP3s work.

People aren't shying away from the PSP because it's lacking in the media department. People are shying away from the PSP because it's lacking in the GAME department. That's why people use homebrews.



Also, think about this: there are many more PSPs in people's homes right now than PS3s. That means that downloadable content through the PS3 would be leaving out a significant number of PSP owners.
