Twitter user @supererogatory has spotted a job listing online for software that includes “Implementing interoperation between PS3 and the VITA”. Criterion are most known for their work on the Burnout franchise, and more recently the Need for Speed franchise. The full job listing reports definitely makes it seem like the game will be heading to the Vita.
Before every E3 Gametrailer’s Bonus Round videos discuss the big three companies (Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo) going into E3. The cast of the videos usually include at least Geoff Keighley, Michael Pachter, and Shane Satterfield with some other guests. Obviously, this year one of the major talking points for Sony included the PlayStation Vita. While discussing the handheld, Pachter teased us with a title that is expected to be shown at E3.
As more and more people start to play around with their PSV’s, we are starting to learn more about the handheld. A feature we didn’t fully know about is the ability to take in-game screenshots in seemingly any game for the Vita. These screenshots are saved in JPG format and are in native resolution, bringing us some beautiful screenshots. The screenshot above was obtained from this feature and was posted on NeoGAF.
Although it will be a couple months until the rest of the world sees Sony’s newest handheld, the Japanese have already got their hands on Vita systems. This is an exciting time as now both Sony and Nintendo have gotten their systems out and we will begin to get a lot of great games on both systems. Once Vita launches in all territories, we’ll be able to see what the market for dedicated handheld gaming devices looks like a little better, and we’ll be able to see which analysts were right.
Did anybody import a Vita? If not, how much harder is the wait for the Vita now that you know the Japanese are playing it?
Following Spike’s Video Games Awards, deadmau5, a DJ known for this electronic music, logged on to Twitter and tweeted the following message.
