Evil might be a science, but combat is surely a sport. We know, because going hands on with Hellboy: The Science of Evil in a meeting with Konami at E3 last week, we broke a sweat jamming buttons in combat. While this is unlikely to emerge as the deepest action game around, it ought to at least get your heart rate up with its own style of comic book action.

Hellboy puts you in the awfully large shoes of the titular hero as he attempts to stop villain Hermann Von Klempt from taking over the world. Light on story and heavy on the action, the game draws from both the graphic novel series and recent film in weaving an entirely original adventure. Better still, the scenarios on PSP slightly differ from those found in the console versions of the game, giving it a distinct feel.

News: Movies on demand coming soon to PS3 & PSP

Whilst discussing the re-designed PSP, Peter Dille, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SCE, confirmed that a movie download service was being developed for both the handheld and the PS3.

Dille was speaking to Gamasutra, and although no release window was given, he said the company realised how important such a service would be.

"We didn’t have any announcements about that at the show [E3], but what I can tell you is we’re working on it, we see that it’s critical, not just for PSP but also for PS3, and it’s something we know is super important to get right."

Dille hopes to get the service right first time, in terms of both usability and content, and as such Sony appears to be taking its time to perfect it.

"We won’t have a second chance to make a first impression. If we launch it and it’s not right, we’re going to get creamed. So we want to make sure we get the consumer experience right, get the right content, and we’re working really hard on it. And I don’t think we’re talking about years, I think this is something we could get behind really soon."

Slim PSP To Have 10 Hour Battery

If you are PSP lover, you will be excited to see this news:

Published	13th July 2007

Gaming site Joystiq has managed to grab some more details on Sony’s new, slimmer, PSP. First up is the inclusion of UMD-cache, which basically means adding in more RAM to the portable console to speed up loading times, not that this is a bad thing of course.

Second on the bill is the long awaited ability to charge the PSP using a standard USB to mini-USB cable, a feature that has been missing far too long in my opinion and will allow owners to transfer files to and from their computers without draining the PSP's battery and therefore having to charge the device during or after doing so.

Joystiq also seems to rate the TV-output of the new PSP pretty well, describing the UMD playback as "fantastic" but warning that games will end up in a box. Adding to this, the slimmer, faster PSP will also feature an incredible 10 hour battery life, over double that of the original unit. Whether these claims translate into real world performance remains to be seen, but if true they could be a real selling point over the currently vastly more popular Nintendo DS.

Comments: I really hope that Sony will put up a solid fight to regain the lost grounds to Nintendo. Certainly, Sony would not give up easily. I am expecting more goodies to come...

PSP Game Download: Contra 4

News Update: Contra 4 comes to PSP

(Virgin.Net UK - 22 June 2007) Marking the 20th anniversary of the action franchise, 'Contra 4' (working title) for the Nintendo DS claims to push 2D side-scrolling action in a new direction.

'Contra 4' takes place two years after the events of 'Contra III: The Alien Wars'. After saving earth from invasion by Red Falcon, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are confronted with a new extraterrestrial menace: the terrifying Black Viper. Joined by hard-boiled mercenaries Mad Dog and Scorpion, the warriors must once again wage war against an entire army of invaders.
Players jump, shoot, and dodge oncoming hazards and, utilising a new dual screen presentation, the action spans both screens of the Nintendo DS, giving players the opportunity to battle across expansive environment, and allowing for massive boss battles.

A first for the series, 'Contra 4' introduces a grappling hook accessory that lets players grab onto elements of the environment directly above them. Continuing the multiplayer tradition of previous games, 'Contra 4' lets two players battle together against Black Viper's army.
'Contra 4' is planned for release on the Nintendo DS in 2007.

(Can't wait to get hold of the game...)
