Developers can now create game titles for the innovative Sony Computer Entertainment "PSP" platform with a development solution from Metrowerks

Developers can now create game titles for the innovative Sony Computer Entertainment "PSP" platform with a development solution from Metrowerks designed to speed game creation and fully leverage the platform's hardware. Available immediately, the studio simplifies game title creation by offering: a stable, market-proven compiler that enables the creation of compact, high-quality object code; support for Sony Computer Entertainment's communication protocol; the ability to work within either the native CodeWarrior development environment or the Visual Studio.NET environment; and a C/C++ debugger that provides an intuitive graphic interface for flexible and accurate code visualisation.

"The extension of CodeWarrior Development Studio to include PSP will be invaluable to game developers and middleware technology providers", said Karthik Bala, Chief Executive Officer of Vicarious Visions.

"Metrowerks has been extremely supportive in our efforts to get our games and technology up and running on PSP as quickly as possible".

"Metrowerks has released many products for a variety of platforms, and we are glad to now hear that Metrowerks has added PSP support to its product line", said Tohru Ogawa, Group Leader of the Technical Group, Contents and Technology Company at Namco.

"The PSP platform presents a major opportunity for Namco in the games market, and we think CodeWarrior will play a significant role in helping us maximise this opportunity".

"CodeWarrior's distinct features include its precise, stable behaviour and its user-friendly interface", said Makoto Yamaguchi, Production Support Manager at Konami Computer Entertainment Studios.

"The fact that CodeWarrior runs with such stability on a brand new platform really distinguishes it from other development tools".

"Metrowerks has done a great job with the CodeWarrior tools for the PSP platform, and now it's our turn to create great titles that capture the industry's attention".

CodeWarrior Development Studio for PSP, Version 1.0 is available immediately.
