FOSTER CITY, Calif., Sept. 5 /PRNewswire/ — Sony Computer Entertainment
America Inc. (SCEA) today announced the availability of the limited-edition
Daxter(TM) PSP(R) Entertainment Pack, which features the new
PSP(R)(PlayStation(R)Portable) system to be offered in North America. The
package, available starting today for $199.99 (MSRP), delivers an all-in-one
portable entertainment experience right out of the box, including a new “Ice
Silver” colored PSP system; the action-packed “Greatest Hits” game, Daxter;
the animated TV comedy, “Family Guy — The Freakin’ Sweet Collection,” on
UMD(TM) (Universal Media Disc); and a 1GB Memory Stick PRO Duo(TM). The new
PSP system — rolling out globally, as announced by Sony Computer
Entertainment Inc. in July — has a more streamlined form factor and a
video-out port, among other enhancements.
“PSP sales have soared since we introduced the $169.99 price point in
April, and that momentum will only continue with the launch of the newly
designed PSP, which has generated strong interest among consumers since we
announced it at E3,” said Jack Tretton, president and CEO, SCEA. “With our
growing software library, which includes more than 140 new releases in the
pipeline this fiscal year, the PSP platform is poised for significant growth.
The Daxter Entertainment Pack offers a great opportunity for consumers to jump
in to PlayStation(R) Portable experience with content that demonstrates the
multi-functionality of the system, all for a great value.”
The Daxter package provides everything consumers need to enjoy the
ultimate in portable entertainment, making it an ideal gift for the upcoming
holiday shopping season. This limited-edition offering features an “Ice
Silver” PSP system, the first new color available in North America, along with
the following:

– Daxter — Developed by Ready At Dawn Studios, Daxter is a PSP
“Greatest Hits” title that set the standard for character action games
on PSP. Daxter takes place during the two years he searches for Jak,
whose imprisonment was shown at the beginning of Jak II(TM).
Developed from the outset as a modern 3D platformer, Daxter sports a
full-featured move-set, seamless level transition through vibrant
environments and incredible animation detail.

– “Family Guy — The Freakin’ Sweet Collection” — Get ready for five
deliciously absurd chapters in the lives of America’s most twisted
animated family! These are the hand-picked, hands-down favorite
episodes of Seth MacFarlane, the delightfully demented genius behind
“Family Guy” (Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment).

– 1GB Memory Stick PRO Duo — Store your photos, music, videos, and game
saves.

To coincide with the release of the new PSP system, SCEA is launching an
advertising campaign that includes dedicated print and online executions to
