Sony has announced at the Liepzig Games Convention that it will release its updated version of the PSP, which is the PSP 3000. Actually, this gadget is now available in Europe and was launched last October 15 for $291.

The main feature of this unit was the improved screen with no glare and it has a built-in mic.

There is no much difference between the PSP 2000 and 3000 except for the improvement in the screen which is much brighter and more vivid than before. However, both units weren’t playable under direct sunlight, but you can see the significant improvement in the 3000.

The side was also more rounder and the UMD cover at the back was redesigned.

Well, for me it’s a good improvement on the old one, but only minor details were added and if you still have the old and preferred the newer version, I guess you should wait a little while and Sony might release a much better unit.

Information from some sources that the price tag is $199.99 in the US for the PSP 4GB Memory Entertainment Pack. It comes with PSP-3000, 4G Memory Stick PRO Duo and a PLAYSTATION Network Voucher.

There is also no information yet if this version will be released in the Philippines in the near future.

Now, one in every six Japanese already owned a DS, but Nintendo’s goal now is to make this toy a must-have for every Japanese.

The newly improved Dsi is much thinner and has a bigger screen. It also came with an audio player and able to store sound in memory card.
