Alright, it’s only kind of a PlayStation Phone, but Sony Ericsson’s funky Android-PlayStation hybrid handheld appears to become real at last. How do we know? Because Engadget’s really fiddled with one.

Contact it an Xperia Perform phone, mainly because Engadget is. It’s apparently a slide-keyboard Android gizmo operating Gingerbread with 512MB of RAM, WiFi (though Engadget couldn’t get it to function), and also a 4-inch 854 by 480 pixel multitouch screen powered by Sony’s Bravia technologies (although what the latter indicates in context remains a marketing and advertising mystery).

Also a mystery: No matter if it is nonetheless driven by a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 chipset. No one’s been in a position to obtain the chip to identify itself, but Engadget was able to pick out a secondary Adreno 205 GPU. The latter’s fairly new (sampling final summer time) and characteristics hardware accelerated SVG and Flash, better shader efficiency than the Adreno 200, and streaming textures that will fold video, camera, SVG, and other pictures in with 3D graphics.

Slide the lower part of the phone out, and voila, it is a PSP Go! Effectively, kind of. You have received your standard PlayStation shoulder pads powering and up best, a d-pad at left, the geometric quad-buttons at proper, along with a touchpad sandwiched within the middle. Yep, no thumb-nubs or thumb-stick, just easy gleaming silver space. Are those dots within the center holes for drop-in sticks? I cannot tell from the pictures, and Engadget doesn’t speculate, but due to the fact I’m horrible utilizing touch-surfaces for 3D gaming, I’d like to feel so.

So what do I imply, “kind of.” We’re not searching at actual PlayStation hardware right here, which either indicates new, native PlayStation-branded game titles, or–more likely–emulation. Engadget was not in a position to test any actual PlayStation games, but loaded an emulator for that PS 1 and a different for your Recreation Boy Advance. In accordance with Engadget, the game titles they examined ran “pretty effectively,” but then we’re talking historical software. What this all means for complete bore PSP games, if there is even that option, remains to become observed.

Don’t look for the device’s official expose at tonight’s rumored PSP2 occasion, taking place in Tokyo at 3pm GMT+9 (that is 10pm PT, 1am tomorrow ET). Perhaps Sony suggestions its hat, possibly it doesn’t, but every person expects the Xperia Play to debut at next month’s Cell World Congress, leaving the stage to Sony’s official PSP successor.

And if the PSP2 turns out to be as svelte and potent as some are stating, are you currently nonetheless considering a phone that might (and I pressure ‘might’) be restricted to older PlayStation games in emulation?
