PSP 4000 in line for late 2009 release

16 Dec 2008

Gamers the world over have been holding out for a proper PSP2 or PSP phone for well over a year now. And while the launch of a true successor is still not due until the beginning of 2010, word is that Sony is planning another revision of their aging handheld.Dubbed the PSP–4000 and following the 3000 model, unveiled back in September, the news, dug up Eurogamer, suggests that it won't be much of a hardware bump, instead focusing on fixing screen issues and generally working harder and faster under the hood.As for the much–vaunted PSP2, rumours suggest Sony has already set to work on a stack of new games, although obviously when pressed the men in suits they'd rather not comment.While you build yourself into a tizzy of expectation, make sure you check out our in–depth review of the PSP–3000 now. And remember to mouth off about it in the comments section too!

    Love my PSP, bought a 3000 model not long ago, and the screen improvements are nice but it's going to be a bit rubbish for the ppl who've bought one and Sony just keep releasing quite minor revisions of it all of the time instead of bringing out a new handheld. Nintendo on the other hand have constantly re-invented their hand-held range. Sony would do well to take a leaf out of their book.
