So I already own an old PSP and 8 UMD games. The question has always been, then, what people like me would do if they wanted to upgrade to a PSP Go. Normally the point of upgrading to a new system is to get rid of the old one, but how would I play my old UMDs? Luckily, Sony's got me covered!

"What you'll be able to do is download 3 games from a selection of 17; these can either be games from your current UMD collection or 3 new titles," Sony explains. The selections are:

* Killzone Liberation
* Medievil
* Wipeout Pure
* Buzz Brain Bender
* Buzz Master Quiz
* SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs: Fireteam Bravo
* Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters
* Everybody's Golf
* Resistance: Retribution
* Syphon Filter Dark Mirror
* Lemmings
* LocoRoco
* Patapon
* Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow
* Echochrome
* Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice
* Daxter

Wowzers, what a deal! Sure, it's dropping $250 for essentially the same system I already have but with a smaller screen and it won't play any of the games I already own. But I get the chance to own two different Buzz titles!

In fairness, I should mention that this is Europe's rewards program, and it just came out of TGS so people haven't had the time to pester Sony with questions about it. There are some holding out the hope that this isn't the full extent of Sony's supposed "goodwill program" for Go owners, but come on. This is "no more PS2 backwards compatibility on the PS3 no one wants that old stuff oh by the way we're going to sell PS2 games on PSN" Sony. Legacy support takes a backseat to trying to pull their system out of a ditch.
