Climax Expresses PSP Worries

Karl Jeffery, the CEO of Climax (developer of ATV Offroad Fury), has made known his worries surrounding the current performance of the PSP. He is worried that the Nintendo DS is trouncing the PSP and that Sony is doing very little to rectify this situation. In an interview with GamesIndustry.biz, Jeffery said,

“To be honest and frank about it we worry about the future of the PSP,”

He believes that Sony has two main ways of fixing this situation, either designing a more ergonomic version with improved battery life, similar to the Nintendo DS lite, or going further into downloadable content.

Whatever Sony decides to do in the future is uncertain, at the moment Jeffery does not feel that they are doing enough. When asked whether he thought publishers would start to abandon the format, he said “yes, It’s probably the platform we’re most worried about”.
