Sony thinks girl gamers want purple PSPs and Petz

Sony’s made two big, new bundle announcements. The interesting part is that it seems the two $199.99 bundles are aimed at two different genders.

For the men Sony has an Assassin’s Creed PSP bundle. It comes with a piano black PSP 3000 unit, the Assassin’s Creed PSP game from Ubisoft. It will likely also come with the requisite memory card, and some sort of other extras which haven’t been named.

For the women, Sony has Hannah Montana. That’s right – a pastel purple PSP 3000 with a Hannah Montana music game, a UMD with Hannah Montana episodes, Hannah Montana stickers and a 2gb memory stick. Doesn’t seem as exciting.

Ubisoft will also be contributing Petz games for the PSP, along with the Assassin’s Creed entry. The exact Petz titles to come haven’t been specified, but the Playstation.Blog mentions bunnies, cats, dogs, dolphins, hamsters, horses and tigers – all Petz games that have already appeared on the DS.

I will admit, color is a major factor when I pick out a portable gaming system…
