Play With Your PSP Go When It’s Closed

So by now you’ve seen all the footage out there regarding the PSP Go. You’ve seen the hot sliding action, and have probably wondered what you can do with the system when it’s in its closed position. Well the detailed answer to that question is right below.

A Sony representative has let loose some info stating that players can continue to use the PSP Go when it is in its closed state. While no official games that use solely the L and R buttons have been announced, when they are released “users will be able to play those games with the PSP Go in closed mode.”

“Users will be able to access content and applications on the XMB such as videos, music and Skype when the panel is closed — but users will need to launch the application first before closing the panel.”

Anybody here thinking about special versions of Loco Roco and Patapon? Or perhaps something even better – imagine if you could hook up the Go to your TV via Component cables, pair up a DualShock 3 controller via Bluetooth, and proceed to play your PSP games on a TV with your wireless controller!

    This is not surprising when you have BT connectivity built in. It was mentioned at the E-3 Press Conference by Kaz Hirai that it would come with BT. And that would mean that the DS3 would have some functionality with the PSP. One game that comes to mind is Resistance FoM: Retribution, it was said that you could use a DS3 controller while connected to remote play on the PS3 so that you could control the action through your PSP…

    So you could also use a BT keyboard and other devices to work with the PSP Go so now it becomes a mini laptop…

    Touchscreen would have definitely made this option more attractive, as you’re not limited to 2 shoulder buttons,
    however, the connectivity of other peripherals is something that is very exciting. Good call SPD55 on the keyboard, i didn’t think of that.

    what other bluetooth peripherals could we see? Maybe the new motion controller? that would be somethin….
