PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe on UMD in North America this April

Lots of people prefer having physical copies. I'm one of them. I'll buy a digital only game, but if it has a physical release I will always choose that option.

I too prefer the physical copy when there's a choice. Especially when there's zero price difference.

See, I like physical copies better too. I just think it's very impractical with a handheld.

I agree they are, however I prefer knowing that years later (untill the CD loses the data or fragments) I'll have my copy. Granted sony's more then likely going to keep the PSN aslong as they're making consoles. So I don't mind owning from PSN, just I like being able to showcase my games.

As far as I'm concerned, the only advantage to physical copies is that you can pick them up for less than full-price pretty often (discounted or second hand). However, in general I'd rather have a PSP game digitally since I find the UMD drive to be extremely noisy.

They do want sales you know...

I'm aware, just I hate the feel of the PSP. There's about 10 games I want on it, and I just hate the feel of it. If the PS3 could play PSP games I'd be buying some of their Digital games, which they'd atleast get some software sales there. I know a few other people who're in the same boat as me. If they did this they might lose out on hardware sales for the PSP but it could be a nice marketing strategy for the PS3. Play PS3,1, and PSP games? Sounds good to me, consindering they took out 2 support. Besides, they wouldn't completely lose out on PSP sales. Some people would want to take their games on the go, so they'd buy a PSP and transfer them over there.

Really though PSP needs any software sales boost it can get with it's rampant piracy.

If the PS3 could play PSP games there would be almost no need for a PSP. It would cut so deeply into disc sales on the PSP that it would be ridiculous.

If people wanted to play mobile they'd still buy the PSP. Also, as if PSP software (disc or digital) are all that good now? I've seen a lot of people with PSPs, and out of them I've seen maybe 2 people buy a PSP game.

@ Aquacharger: I wasn't fond of the PSP either... however I did buy the go and I'm happy with that. I got the component AV cables and my ps3 controller synced up to it, so I use it like a little mini console when I'm at home. Its all PSP without the feel of PSP. Fun stuff!
