Xbox and PSP hot tips confirmed

We know the name of the next-generation Xbox and now we know what it looks like. Erm, probably. Pictures of a curved, sleek, grey box with prominent branding of the Xbox 360 logo have leaked onto the net, filling in the final pieces of what Microsoft is doing with its super-powerful console.

It appears to be much smaller than the black hulk of the first generation and reminds me more than a bit of the Sky+ box. Could, of course, be an elaborate fake.

Still with consoles, Sony has confirmed the worst-keep secret of the month by admitting the awesome PlayStation Portable is delayed from European shores until September 1. Pricing has been set at €255 for the standard machine but at least you'll get a 32MB memory card (bloody useless capacity!) and carrying pouch in the bundle.
