Despite rumours to the contrary, Capcom have today moved to assured gamers that they are still making games for the PSP handheld; this despite reports suggesting the Japanese publisher would cease creating games for the format.

A representative described the claims as "absolutely 100 per cent false", Business Development boss Christian Svensson, assuring: "We're still making new PSP games."

Monster Hunter is of course a smash hit on the format in Japan, Svensson noting: "We may be the most successful PSP publisher in the world with Monster Hunter Portable 2nd and 2ndG. It'd be a difficult decision to defend stopping development when we have such success on the platform."

While in Europe the PSP has struggled to generate a great deal of hype, the handheld gizmo is selling well in the US, and especially Japan - where publishers like Capcom are reaping the rewards. More soon.

    "While in Europe the PSP has struggled to generate a great deal of hype" thats properly because places like the uk are on the bottom of the game release date, sucks that we get games like months behind the US and when games need to be translated they take up to a year and a half, its pathetic
