Sony’s Downloadable PSP Games: following iPhone’s success

It has been reported that Sony will no longer require concept approval from developers who are working on games for the upcoming PSP Go console. Looks as if the move is due to Sony’s plan to get developers interested in the UMD-less handheld as much as possible.

As GamaSutra reports, Sony has already cut the price of PSP dev kits, as announced a few months ago. Sony are also offering shorter quality assurance processes and better yet, allowing low price points for some new titles.

Gamasutra also states that the PSP Go download service will operate in a similar way to Apple’s App store and might even offer non-gaming applications. Interesting.
