PixelJunk Monsters will be the last PJ title made for PSP should the current levels of piracy on the system stay the same

This, according to Dylan Cuthbert, president of Q-Games, is the current, sad state of affairs. Tweeting as all the cool kids do these days, Cuthbert said:

“I don’t think we’ll port anything else to the PSP, we have to see how PJMD does as there’s a *lot* of piracy”

“I don't think we'll port anything else to the PSP”

When pirate-busting countermeasures were suggested, they were immediately shot down in a further tweet:

“Unfortunately the pirates could just hack those kinds of things out.”

So that’s you told.

We’re not sure how deadly serious this is – it’s difficult to judge someone’s mood from 140 characters (or less). We do find it hard to believe though, especially with the recent launch of the digital distribution-only PSPgo surely helping the battle against those crafty pirates?

As he says, though, they just find a way around. It’s sad to see things go this way, but as long as there are still going to be PixelJunk games in future then we’re at least a bit happy.
