I loved this one-off PSP when I first covered it back in July and now, I’m happy to report that it has sold, although unhappy that it’s not to me.

This stunning, customised God Of War PSP went up for auction on eBay in July, with the goal that some of the money was going to charity, but what’s even better is that the buyer of Kratos’ handheld is none other than Ready At Dawn, developer of the forthcoming God Of War: Chains Of Olympus game for the PSP. Even better, they gave the designer Ramon the red carpet treatment. Here’s what the company said:

“We couldn’t let this one pass so we used our ninja eBay sniping skillz to outbid all the competition and claim this really cool piece of hardware all to ourselves…while at the same time doing something cool for Child’s Play. But we didn’t stop there.

In order to make sure the PSP wouldn’t get damaged during shipping, we flew its creator Ramon over to Southern California to hand-deliver it, meet the team and get to play the soon-to-be-released Chain of Olympus demo. We’re passionate people and we like passionate people so we were all super jazzed to meet the guy behind this one-of-a-kind handheld.”

Remember, they were ‘super jazzed’. You read it here. Dude.-Martin Lynch
