The upcoming PSP game Resistance: Retribution is going to be the first game to take advantage of a new feature called ‘PSP Plus.’ PSP Plus is a program that will allow PSP owners who own a PlayStation 3 connect the two units together and use the DualShock 3 controller to play the game. The point of the option is to allow the gamer use both analog sticks that are provided on the PS3 controller and control the game like a traditional first/third-person-shooter.

Not only will the gameplay be improved because of the DualShock, but will also include rumble. As of now, Resistance Retribution is the only game to support PSP Plus but we figure more games down the line are going to feature it.

I wonder if Sony will ever offer Resistance for the PSP as a download through PSN — after the game is out for the handheld for a long period of time.
