Early PSPgo Adopters In North America Get DLC Capable Rock Band Demo
Posted by x3sphere at August 28, 2009, 11:36 am

While Sony has cooked up an inciting deal for early adopters of the PSPgo in Europe, offering a free copy of Gran Turismo PSP to those who register their system by October 10, the deal is much less appealing in North America. Which is surprising, as it’s usually the other way around.
Sony has teamed up with MTV to give North American PSPgo purchasers, for a limited time only, a downloadable voucher for Rock Band Unplugged Lite. This is essentially a demo of Rock Band Unplugged, but with added support for downloading DLC tracks. It’s obvious as to who was given the better deal here. Like we said, usually it’s Europe that receives the short end of the stick, so we find it hard to complain in this case. But seriously, how hard could it have been to make the GT promotion a universal one? Marketing decisions, sometimes they make no sense.

the PS3 is not mainstream in NA as most have Wii and or XBOX360. is this handheld still launching at $249?
It would have been worthwhile to launch this instead of the psp-3000 or at that time.
I think it will be hard to justify spending money on this GO unit.
