Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) have brought to our attention the arrival of the PSP camera, Go!Cam.

The Go!Cam will be out on May 16 and carry the reasonable price of £34.99/EUR49.99, and will give PSP gamers a whole new range of options for their handhelds.

Two and half hours video recording time and the ability to take and store over 40,000 photos means that the portable gamer becomes a portable studio, complete with an inbuilt microphone.

"Go!Cam is fantastic news for all those PSP owners looking for something new, fun and creative”, said Stephane Hareau, PSP Marketing Manager, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

“With Summer around the corner and the ability to turn your PSP into a mini [A1] camcorder and capture all the best moments in your life, this is yet another reason to get a PSP and to take advantage of truly portable entertainment. It demonstrates yet again the potential, versatility and evolving nature of PSP."

All that PSP owners need to do if they want to use a Go!Cam is make sure their handheld is operating on PSP firmware upgrade Ver. 2.80 onwards.
