PS Vita is the new handheld by Sony, made to replace the current handheld PSP. It is expected to be released in North America in early 2012. The new handheld has a 5 inch OLED touch screen and although it is touch screen capable it features two analog sticks, a D-pad, standard PS3 buttons (triangle, circle, X and square) two shoulder buttons, a Playstation, start and select button. The expected American release price is $249 for the Wi-Fi only and $299 for the Wi-Fi and 3G version. Although it is fully backwards compatible, there are a few games that were previewed at the E3 convention this year that sparked the interest of Sony fans everywhere.
1. Sound Shapes (working title) – This is a well thought out title brought to us from designer Jonathan Mak (Everyday Shooter). It is a 2D platformer musical game where the goal is to hit all of the musical points throughout the level while avoiding perils. Your reward at the end is the full musical composition. Once you have completed all of the challenges you can create your own levels.
2. Uncharted: Golden Abyss – Golden Abyss is another glorious addition to the Uncharted series that follows Nathan Drake as he journey’s to Central America. He is in search of information regarding the 400-year-old deaths of a Spanish expedition involving a secret Spanish sect, his old friend Jason Dante and Marisa Chase; a missing archeologists granddaughter.
3. Little Big Planet – If you’ve ever played any of the enjoyable Little Big Planet games then you will be excited about this release following our beloved Sackboy’s adventures. If you haven’t played a Little Big Planet then prepare to have your socks knocked off. The demo at E3 showed that the game is comparable in appearance to the PS3 version. It plays much like the PS3 version with platform levels and puzzles. The game works well in conjunction with the touch screen environment of the PS Vita.
The anticipation behind the release of the PS Vita is large, especially with Sony handheld lovers. The changes made to the controls have created a buzz within the industry and with fans. If you are planning on getting a PS Vita then you should get one these games to ensure that you get the full experience from your new handheld.
