The great thing about Twitter is that the celebs love it! And so do all sorts of people who run sites and want us to visit them! And to create some buzz and to motivate us to visit them they offer cool prizes if we tweet about them.  Here is a coupla  Twitter contests that are offering a PSP, PSP games or both as prizes in return for a few seconds of our time spent tweeting about them (copy-past-click and done!)

The second contest is a bit different (well, OK, a LOT different). Hoping to hook into both our passion for PSPs,  and into the whole viral network of Youtube, Twitter etc, theiPodKid is offering us the chance to win a PSP Rockband bundle and Killzone Liberation game for PSP. All we have to do is

3) help get friends to view the video - as the winner is chosen after the video gets 100, 000 views. Its currently up to  41,048 views!! This is where twitter comes in because all you have to do is tweet a message like:

Digital access codes for more than 200 Play Station Network games and game-related content for PSP (and PS3) entertainment systems, have now been made available from Amazon.

According to Paul Ryder, vice president of consumer electronics for Amazon:

PlayStation Network games are an important addition and we plan to continue making it easier for customers to instantly enjoy new content as well as their favorite games from the comfort of their living rooms.

The new deal between PlayStation and Amazon means that we can purchase digital access codes for download via the Amazon Video Game Store as well as the PlayStationNetwork.

Is that a benefit to us? Well, if Amazon gives us better prices, or special deals, maybe! Plus it is handy that all the addons are in one place and easy to find.

Some of the games already on offer include - Flower(TM), PAIN, PixelJunk(TM) Eden, Wipeout Pure and classics like Twisted Metal®:Head-On.
