Today's Rumor Post Decries Yesterday's Rumor Post About PSP 2 [Rumor]
Kotaku — ... rumour or speculation, but this is nonsense.” The only thing better than an anonymous source, is an anonymous source lacking the backbone to put their face with the backhands they want to deliver to a publication. The best part is that despite the acrimony, MCV never gets around to having their source really deny the PSP2 rumor. Personally, I hope that Sony doesn't plan to chase multitouch tech, and instead look into dual thumbsticks for any possible new iteration of their portable. PSP 2 rumours are “nonsense" [MCV]

Those PSP 2 rumors are rubbish
CrunchGear — As if we even need to relay this information, but those PSP 2 rumors from yesterday are completely baseless. Do not get excited, do not lose sleep. Go about your day as if you never heard the rumor. IGN cited “several credible sources” that said the new PSP would would have a multi-touch (like the iPhone) screen, something Sony has since flatly denied. While saying they don’t comment on rumor or speculation—that would be silly—a Sony rep told MCV that the rumor is “nonsense.” Strong words from Sony. You can sorta see ...

Tech Ticker — ... it allows you to teleport across the globe, travel through time, and will be powered by the horns of baby rhinoceroses. “Hopefully, you can sense a mild tone of sarcasm, which should hopefully indicate how ‘on the money’ IGN are. Needless to say, we don’t comment on rumour or speculation, but this is nonsense.” This comment really shows the nastiness but if IGN’s source turns out to be true, Sony might have to bite its own words.

Touchscreen PSP 2 rumors get stoked, then slammed
Yahoo! Tech Advisors — ... although it noted that the leak was "in line" with other recent rumors, as well as a recent Sony survey that polled gamers on which features—including a touchscreen interface—would make them more likely to buy a new PSP. Fair enough; rumors of a touchscreen PSP have indeed been floating around for some time now, so the IGN report doesn't come as a huge surprise. What caught my attention, though, was the venom in Sony's response—or rather, an anonymous source "close to Sony," as reported by gaming site MCV : Clearly, being a quiet time of year, many, what we though to be ...
