I worry about Sony's new PSP. After the shock of the impressive visuals of Sony's next-generation portable, the PlayStation Vita, had become familiar, after the pleasant surprise of the new handheld's price settled in ($249 USD, the launch price of a PSPgo), I started thinking about the harsher realities of the Vita.…

The announcement last week that AT&T will be the exclusive 3G provider for the hot new PlayStation Vita did not go down well.

Uncharted Golden Abyss is the best reason, but certainly not the only one, to buy Sony's still-codenamed Next Generation Portable. [Read our impressions]

Strong evidence that Sony's Next Generation Portable would actually be called PS Vita emerged earlier this week. That's still unconfirmed, but Vita is now looking more likely, thanks to a new source: Sony itself.

While Sony wowed the crowds with the quality of the NGP's graphics at the handheld's unveiling last year in Tokyo, this clip may give us a more realistic idea of what to expect from the PSP's successor.

We've been asked by the people behind PlayStation to save the date. June 6, 5pm Pacific. Los Angeles. That's when their big E3 press conference will happen. That's when we'll probably find out about the biggest and best gaming plans for the PS3 and NGP, at least for the next year.

The launch of Sony's next PlayStation Portable, currently codenamed NGP, may not be a global affair this year, in part due to the massive Tōhoku earthquake and deadly tsunami that slammed Japan last month.

Insomniac Games, creators of PlayStation staples Ratchet & Clank and Resistance, say they'll continue to stick to console games for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but not the next PlayStation Portable, Sony's NGP.

Sony brought one of the most dazzling games for its new NGP system, Uncharted, to its talk at GDC 2011. While we've seen some of this gameplay before, even shaky cam footage that doesn't capture the NGP's big, bright OLED screen is exciting.

The next PlayStation Portable, Sony's recently announced NGP, won't rival the PlayStation 3 in terms of raw computing power, despite its impressively good looks. Sony engineers say the NGP instead sits about "halfway" between the original PSP and PS3.
