So at this point do they call it LittlerBigPlanet?

Joystiq has a few more reports from this morning's session at the retailer conference known as Destination PlayStation, which is currently underway in Arizona. Sounds like Sony is devoting time to the PSP so far, adding to the announcement of Rock Band Unplugged with news that the LittleBigPlanet franchise is heading to the PSP later this year.

Ubisoft will be delivering an Assassin's Creed game on the PSP sometime in 2009, and Sony along with BigBig Studios are doing an arctic-themed MotorStorm for the PSP and PS2 called MotorStorm: Arctic Edge.

Oh, and they're doing a Hannah Montana PSP bundle in July. Finally, some news and views that I can use!

finally something good. I hope they don't kill Assassins creed and make it an over the top camera. Hope it looks decent too. Assassins Creed was a beautiful game to look at.

Ass Creed on PSP sounds nice, but as we all know, 3D games on PSP control like SHIT unless they use a Syphon Filter or Killzone Liberation control scheme.  Which means 99% of everything else controls like the XBOX dpad on crack

This is good news, if they can be quality games, in something like Motorstorm or Assassin's Creed the graphics are very important, lets hope they can hold up.  The PSP God Of War was pretty good, lets hope these can be good too :).

The problem with these games is, in my view, the problem with all psp games- They try to emulate thier older brother (which tends to go badly), rather then come up with something that actaully works well on the psp.

Hannah Montana bundle? Sign me up!

Or not...

LBP on the PSP can be fun, though.

I find this Hannah Montana bundle interesting because there's no Hannah Montana game for the PSP yet. Do companies still release stuff on UMD?
