Rumor: PSP 2 Won't Have UMD Drive (Kotaku 25/2/09)
The new Playstation Portable won't feature a UMD disc drive, according to Acclaim developer David Perry.
"I hear Sony FINALLY has the PSP 2. And thank goodness, they've removed the stupid battery-sucking UMD disc drive. I'm excited!" Perry wrote on both his Twitter and Facebook accounts.
It is unclear if he has seen the rumored new Playstation Portable himself or is just hearing rumors through the development community.
This rumor is the latest in a series of rumors to hit the net in the past month or so, including one from IGN and another from VG247.
If it's true that the Playstation Portable 2 won't feature a UMD disc drive, than I'd say it's likely it will instead rely on Memory Sticks and downloads through the Playstation Network Store. The bigger question is whether such a device could be backwards compatible, and if so how it would work.
There has been an awful lot of news about the PSP coming out lately, so I think it's a safe bet to say that we can expect something from Sony about the next iteration of the Playstation Portable at E3.
