Rumor: 2009 PSP games to be downloadable
Has anyone else heard anything about this?  If it is true, it'd be a nice way to buy the game legit, and still not have to worry about the UMD.  I am getting it from the EGM November magazine.  One of the rumors is that

"Every single 2009 PSP game will also be offered as a download"

source:  http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=337371


Remeber, it is purely rumor! But still, what do you think about it?  If it turned out to be true, would you go that route?

Not gonna work.

This really can't work.

Heavy-duty DRM will probably plague it... and probably the need for a PS3 as well..

*yawn*

PSP games are already "downloadable"

Yes, but there are still some people who go the legit route.  I was wondering if they'd like this?  I buy the games I most enjoy.  Was just wondering others' thoughts.  Think it'd help sells (for those lazy jerks who refuse to even wait for it to get shipped after ordering online), or what?  

As I said, it was just a rumor, but I felt like sharing it.

Actually, I don't think it would help sales much. I mean I'd rather buy the UMD with the boxing, etc. - it seems a lot more worth it

If it's available to all regions it might give some incentive, otherwise, the price will be the key.

Then they can go out and get the UMD of it.  I kinda just pictured it as their attempt at going the Warhawk route perhaps?  Release them on PSN as well as on shelves at same time.  Regardless of whether or not they did that, the downloadable versions of them will get spread across the net.
