PSP™ Games

[timbolton]

Using Play.com as the main basis, I've collated a list of expected release dates for upcoming games. I've then gone to websites for Game, Gamestation, Amazon.co.uk and HMV to compare the info they have. There are some big discrepancies - for instance Game and Gamestation disagree with Play on a number of ocassions. HMV seems to think several games are coming out on Christmas Day.

Not all games in the list are on Play.com, and that has been noted below via brackets immediately after the game name (and the site providing the info in the brackets themselves).

Note these dates can and do change, and the various sites disagree on some release dates, so which one is correct is anyone's guess - though if two or more sites agree against another, go with the majority. This is just a guide, expect changes to happen.

I tried copy and pasting an excel doc into here, looked nicer, but each post you do has a character limit and it moaned at me.

Hiya

Thanks for the list, just a small query is Silent Hill Shattered Memories. I been all over the internet for info on it but can't find release dates aside Q4 2009. But it can't be out christmas day lol? Am hoping to sort it out kinda soon cos am looking at the ps2 version aswell and so i'll buy by which is out first, but info is real scarce..can't wait for it though

[timbolton]

Hi EmmaliciouS,

Thanks! Just had another look around the shopping sites, and the ones that do have the upcoming Silent Hill game listed still say Christmas Day, which definitely won't be a release day - all shops (or nearly all but definitely the ones where you can buy games) will be closed. And there is no post, so you won't get a delivery either.

The official Konami UK website only has this info so far - http://uk.games.konami-europe.com/news.do?idNews=397

The actual game developer, Climax, don't have much else - http://www.climaxgroup.com/

So nope, nothing new on it. It'll be a wait and see - the Konami site claims the PSP version will be out at the same time as the Wii one - if that's the case the release date would be 30 October, but then ALL shopping sites would have it listed by now, so expect a later date.

I can confirm for this week that I have seen Colin McRae: DiRT 2  and Colin McRae: DiRT 2 on the shelves at all of the stores. Not sure about Naruto Shippuden: Legends - Akatsuki Rising or Williams Pinball Classics. Didn't see them.

Next week - expect

MotorStorm: Arctic Edge  [Notes: Game's website mentions a Special Edition]
Blood Bowl  
Need For Speed: Shift

Assassin's Creed II: Bloodlines  
SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs - Fireteam Bravo 3  

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
