PSP gets THQ support
Four coming from US firm
Previously coy publisher THQ - one of the larger third-parties supporting current generation handheld hardware - has revealed it has four games in development for Sony's PSP, with chief Brian Farrell applauding Sony's highly competitive price point of just over 20,000 Yen (£100, if you prefer). One of the games is known to be a motocross offering in the MX series, though we're unclear at this juncture what the other three titles will be.
THQ is the latest in spate of big-name publishers to publicly back the PSP, with EA, Sega and several more also confirming that multiple titles are being created for the format of late. The Japanese launch on December 12th will be accompanied by some twenty-one games before the year is out, with GT4 hitting the gadget in early 2005.
No word on the North American or European debuts have been announced yet - but the PSP was originally thought to be heading for Europe in March.
In news unrelated to the PSP, but highly relevant to THQ - the publisher has also confirmed a version of Full Spectrum Warrior for the PS2, with the acclaimed action title due out by March next year. We'll keep you informed.
