This is Ampltude, in case you were wondering.
It sounds like the PSP is getting a sizable push at the conference, and the PSP version of Rock Band, titled Rock Band Unplugged, has been informally announced at the event. According to Primotech, which sounds like it's getting some leaked info from the conference, the game is being developed by Backbone Entertainment. It will feature tracks from Blink-182, Boston, Lit, Kansas, AFI, and more. It will also contain hooks for downloadable content through an online store.
The most interesting part is that the gameplay will be a lot like Harmonix's earlier releases for Sony, Frequency and Amplitude. Players will swap between different instrument tracks, complete phrases to trigger autoplay, and so on.
No release date has been confirmed, but expect it to hit this fall.

ANOTHER AMPLITUDE!
Sweet.... hopefully the rock band name will give it a bump
Haha, the thing that GS did for 2008's April Fools, actually came true!
On a side note, I think the custom tracks feature will benefit a lot on the PS, with the easy saving and Sharing options!

I'm all over this!! Amplitude style gameplay with Rock Band and DLC attached to it? SOLD!!
Pretty much Amplitude, huh?
I'm not sure that gameplay would hold up in this day and age, but I guess we'll wait and see on it. Besides, it's pretty much without competition until Guitar Hero eventually makes its way to PSP.
Amplitude? Yes, please.
Backbone developing and a weak tracklist? No, thanks.

One comment by Drebin 893? That's one more comment by Drebin 893 then there should be.
I won't buy it but... awesome that more games are coming to the PSP, whatever they may be.
