Sony Expanding Official Peripheral Licensing Program

Sony Computer Entertainment is expanding its official peripheral licensing program to include more third party manufacturers to beef up PlayStation accessory offerings, the company said Tuesday.

Third party peripheral makers who are part of the official licensing program will have access to Sony technical documents used for the creation of peripherals for PlayStation hardware including PlayStation 3, PS2, PSP, and PSPgo.

All products created by an official peripheral partner will sport the "Official Licensed Product" logo on the packaging. Such products will meet Sony's in-house standards for peripherals.

Interested peripheral makers can obtain an official peripheral and licensing program request form at Sony's official website.

Well hopefully this means cheaper accessories. Honestly, why do controllers cost as much as games now? It's a really big barrier for new adopters of consoles when they look at multi-player as another several hundred dollar investment.

@Adam,

I was under the impression the price increase for controlers was related to wireless features and the new home button. That's just a guess though.
