You know what would be the bee’s knees? Being able to ask developers questions at E3 and then have those question appear in a video interview. :)

One comment on neither confirming nor denying a PSP2, and it gets reported on the front page of PushSquare and half a dozen other sites – lol
These guys obviously really want the rumours to be true.
Was referring to any/all rumors and E3 conspiracy theories — the conference isn’t far off, so there’s a lot of speculation swirling about every topic under the sun. Keep a grain of salt handy at all times
