Codemasters' Vice President, Gavin Cheshire, has offered up something of a little rant about the PSP.

Speaking in an interview with Edge Magazine Cheshire spoke of his experiences of Sony's handheld.

Cheshire offered: "Well, speaking as a person who bought a PSP, the problem was that I always thought - because it was a better screen than iPod's - that I'd be doing more with it. But it was such a b**locking useless waste of space; just getting stuff on it was ridiculous."

He was a bit more complimentary of the Go, initially: "PSP Go's a lovely device; really smart - but our senior VP bought one the day it came out and has a great story, because he ended up on some customer support line just trying to do basic stuff. He had to re-download his software, do an immediate update, and that's your user experience."

"Sony just hasn't got it right," concluded Cheshire. "Stuff like that will make people leave it alone."
