It's happened for US and UK gamers, and now its finally the Aussies' turn. After stating a price drop for the PlayStation Portable wasn't imminent only a few weeks ago, Sony Computer Entertainment Australia (SCEA) has now announced that the PSP will indeed be cheaper down under. From today, the core PSP pack will cost AU$279.95, down from AU$329.95.
The price drop comes after similar reductions in the US and the UK, which saw the PSP's cost fall $30 to $169.99 in the States and down £20 to £129.99 for the Brits. And it's not only the handheld which is dipping its cost -- Platinum titles for the PSP will now cost AU$29.95, down AU$10.
To coincide with the new price, SCEA has released five new Platinum titles -- Ridge Racer 2, Tekken: Dark Resurrection, Killzone, Loco Roco and Moto GP.
SCEA has also announced a street date for the latest PSP add-on. The PSP Go!Cam -- a digital camera attachment which plugs into the PSP's mini-USB slot -- will arrive in Australia on June 21 and will retail for AU$79.95. The Go!Cam can take still shots, video, and has a built-in microphone to capture audio.
