-  MCV rumoured last week that Sony “could” announce PSP2 at E3.
-  VG247 goes digging. According to a source familiar with the matter, it’s “99 percent” it isn’t an E3 reveal.
-  But there’s much, much more.
-  Multiple British sources have confirmed that PSP2 NDAs have been in place at publishers and developers for many months.
-  PSP2 has two cameras, one forward and one backward facing.
-  It has a touch-screen, but apparently it has retained the trademark physical PlayStation buttons.
-  UK sources were previously working towards a “2010″ release. This is now “2011″.
-  One source would be “amazed” if there was any kind of physical media involved. We’ve been told it “could” be 3G-enabled, as opposed to the WiFi-only PSP go. This bit was sketchy.
-  Multiple PSP2 games are being made in Britain right now. Some have even already been canned.
-  There have been “finished units” in the UK, but we haven’t spoken to anyone that’s seen a final case.
-  When asked directly about reveal timing, one source said, “If the games were aiming for end 2010, beginning 2011, and now it’s a 2011 release, I’d say a gamescom or TGS announce for launch early next year”.
-  One source told us the machine is “fucking powerful,” being based on a four-core Cell CPU. PS3 runs on an eight-core version.
