Sony: no plans yet for controlling PSP via DualShock 3 for future games

Resistance: Retribution - Image 1


Sony has made many promises before on raising PSP and PS3 interconnectivity. Unfortunately, that probably doesn't include more games - aside from Resistance: Retribution - being able to use the PSP via the DualShock 3.

In case you haven't heard of the function yet, Resistance: Retribution will be able to connect to the PS3's Resistance 2 via "Infected mode." Aside from changing the storyline significantly, it also allows you to use the DualShock 3 to play on the PSP, vastly improving your control over your character with a second joystick.

A Sony rep said they aren't even considering the possibility of integrating this tech with future games yet. The tech is still in the hands of Retribution's studio, Sony Bend. There are so many possibilities they could do with this, and I hope they do consider it soon. A lot of PSP games will undoubtedly benefit from a second joystick.
