Sony Movie Unit to issue films for PSP game system

Reuters reports today that Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will offer several movies for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). "XXX", Hellboy", "Resident Evil 2" and "One Upon A Time In Mexico" should be released on the 1.8GB Universal Media Disk (UMD), the new format which was specially developed for the PSP.

Further will Sony release the 'handheld multimedia console" in North America on March 24 bundled with a copy of 'Spider-Man 2".

In unveiling the PSP for the U.S. market in January, top Sony Computer executives said they would probably wait a few months after the PSP's release before seriously pushing movies in the new disc format.

 

But earlier this month, when Sony set the launch date and price for the PSP, executives said the strategy had changed and that there would be movie releases within a month of launch.
