Capcom newest fighting game, Fate/Unlimited Codes, is now available to download from the PlayStation Store. It is also the first download only title Capcom have released for the PSP. The game is available from the US PlayStation Store and will be released in Europe next week. Fate/Unlimited Codes is based on the popular, if slightly crazy, Japanese visual novel/anime.
Yesterday at GamesCom 2009, Sony announced the Digital Comic Store for the PSP. The new service will allow PSP owners to access a range of media on their PSP. The digital reader service will be launched with Digital Comics this December in select countries, including the U.S and regions in Europe. We also have the first screens of what the service will look like. Take a look below.
PlayStation Japan has announced that they will be adding downloadable Manga to the PlayStation Store. While there’s no mention of what manga will be available as well as pricing, this is great news indeed. Although of course, this is only for Japan – but lets hope Sony decides to expand into other regions. It shouldn’t be too much of a problem for Sony to bring this feature to other territories, though localization could prove to be a hurdle for Sony, especially in Europe.
If you are planning to upgrade to the PSP Go! this October, you’re probably wondering what will become of all those UMD games you’ve purchased over the years. Although the UMD format will continue, you won’t be able to use them on the PSP Go! unless you have digital copies of the game. Its looks like Sony has already come up with a solution. According to John Koller, “We’re in the midst of putting together a good will program. [...] So we’re looking at a short term good-will program that would continue for years afterward.”
