PSP Go! Download Service - Image 1The last (but certainly not the least) of the three Go! services unveiled for the PlayStation Portable during the Leipzig Games Convention is the Go! Video Download Service. The service will be available in the UK and Ireland in early 2008.

What the service basically does is transform the PSP into a portable media library. Users will be able to choose from a diverse number of programs from Sky, Ireland the UK's multi-platform television service. Available programs will include sports, entertainment, movies, music, and animation.

Sky is also in talks with other third-party channel brands to bring in more content. The programs will be available via Wi-Fi or the PC where users can just transfer the videos. Programs will be delivered on a pay per view basis so users will only watch and pay for the programs they want.

1st!, besides being first, id like to ask, by pay per view, does that mean the content can be streamed onto the PSP unit? that would be a godsend

» Petition to bring Counter-Strike to the PSP

I created a petition last night to get CS onto the PSP and as of right now

there is 85 signatures.



I contacted QJ.net's PSP Updates but it appears that they are not interested

in helping or we would have already seen a post about it like we did for

CAPCOMS Resident Evil.



I need everybody to start spamming PSP forums that you all belong to and

share the info about this petition with others. I need everybody's help, one

man can't do it all alone.



So spam all PSP releated and even unrelated forums so we can get Americas

favorite online game onto our hand held.



Thanks

» thats a good idea

would this work for both old and new psp then that would be good for me as im always moving and it uk and irelenad only thats the first feature exclusive to the uk and ireland.



USA got infinte downlo\dable demos off psp browser.



Japan or China got free anime and some ifilter for their psps.

um demos for usa are also compatible with europe and japan so thats not a benefit. and i-filter is some stupid web filtering service. i'd say *****ing europe is getting all the good stuff.

» psp video 9

h/o psp video 9 and a copy of anydvd will get the job done much better and cheaper!

» Hmm

If you can't use your current Sky subscription to view stuff for free, then this service will crash and burn. Sky already offers all movies etc free online to subscribers.. If they charge for this they can get bent.



I'll stick to free stuff thanks.

» Sucks

I don't think its gunna do that well, people arn't going to pay for video on there portable when they could just watch it on there TV for free, or just genrally on there PC and if people wanted a TV show that badly on there portable, they would just download it from somewhere of the net, convert it and dump it on there console



I love all the Go! features (apart from I don't think this one will do much, I want GPS!), but I hate who ever named it "Go!" sounds so childish and cheesy.
