It was always going to happen, right from the word go. It was just a matter of time. The PlayStation Portable is about to become the 'train-toilet crafty-one’s' gadget of choice, replacing the copy of Escort bought at the station for those who cannot last a day without looking at reproductive organs of ladies.
A report cropping up on Adult Video News claims that in the next few months, we’ll be seeing an explosion of harder adult content for Sony’s new console, following in
Playboy’s legs-together butt prints from earlier this year.
"Hey, it's mobile video; porn is a natural", Andy Alvarez, president of Webmaster Central and porn-lover told AVN. "Just like PCs, it makes a great excuse: ‘Honey I'm just playing Grand Theft Auto,’ and secretly you’re checking out a hot European threesome!" An interesting point given pornography is classed as material likely to corrupt the user… almost makes us cast a wistful glance in the direction of a certain [url=http://spong.com/x?eid=10109308]Mr Thompson…[/url]
Of course, this isn’t the first time porn on the PSP has reared its purple head, winking its eye in Sony's direction. Back in June, Sony reacted to
Japanese porn houses planning a PSP push (or should that be pull?) deeming the content “utterly undesirable”.
“The PSP is the first Personal Media Player with wide acceptance,” said Sam Sugar, founder of SugarBank.com. “Any portable video device will carry porn eventually, but until there are more options, for most Americans the PMP category will mean PSP. Of course this is a nail in the coffin of DVD. All this content will be downloaded online. With PMPs you can plug into your TV or beam to TV wirelessly, and the need for DVDs will diminish.”
Though perhaps Sugar isn’t entirely correct, SPOnG has learned that several Chinese outfits are already planning movie releases on non-writable generic Memory Sticks. The releases will see counterfeit movies pre-formatted for PSP to be sold in Japan. Any movie industry could adopt this model for official releases of its own content as the wait for open UMD authoring continues.
We’ll bring you updates on all things PSP as soon as we're done in the toilet!
